HOBOnet® Wireless Sensor Network
RXW Repeater (RXW-RPTR-B-xxx) Manual
24502-B
The RXW Repeater is designed to work with the HOBOnet Wireless Sensor Network in which data
is transmitted wirelessly from sensor motes across the network to the station and then uploaded
to HOBOlink® web-based software. The repeater is ideal when there is an obstruction between
motes and the station or for extending the transmission range of motes in the network. With
HOBOlink, you can monitor the network, view graphs, set up alarms, download data, and more.
