3G GSM/GPRS module (GSM8H) (67-0U) (PCB - 5550-1209)
Like GSM6H this module functions as transparent communication path between reading software and
MULTICAL
801 and is used for data reading.
However, this module supports both 2G (GSM/GPRS) and 3G (UMTS) which makes it applicable in areas with 3G
coverage only.
The module requires an external Antenna, which covers both 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz.
The module itself is fitted with a line of light emitting diodes indicating signal strength, which are very useful during
installation. Furthermore, it is indicated whether the module is connected to a 2G or a 3G network.
Additional details about the 3G module appear from data sheet 58101057 DK-version, 55101058 GB-version,
58101059 DE-version, 58101061 FI-version and 58101060 SE-version.
Regarding mounting, we refer to installation instructions 55121121 DK-version, 55121122 GB-version, 55121123
DE-version, 55121124 FI-version and 55121125 SE-version.
11.1.19
Ethernet/IP module (IP201) (67-0T) (PCB - 5550-844)
The IP module functions as transparent communication between reading software and MULTICAL ®801 and is used
for data reading. The module supports both dynamic and static addressing. This is specified in the order or selected
during subsequent configuration. The module has no built-in security and must, therefore, always be used in
connection with a firewall or NAT.
Further details appear from the data sheet, DK-version 5810-541, GB-version 5810-542, DE-version 5810-543, SE-
version 5810-544. As far as installation is concerned we refer to installation instructions, DK version 5512-934, GB-
version 5512-937, DE-version 5512-938, SE-version 5512-939.
11.1.20
High Power Radio 2 pulse inputs (VA, VB) (67-00-84) (PCB - 5550-1221)
The High Power RadioRouter module has built-in router functionality and is thus optimized to form part of a
Kamstrup radio network, the read data being automatically transferred to system software via the network unit RF
Concentrator.
Furthermore, the module can be read by Kamstrup’s hand-held reading systems, e.g. USB Meter Reader and MT
Pro.
The RadioRouter module is available for operation in both licence-free and licence demanding frequences
permitting a transmitting strength of up to 500 mW. The module is by default fitted with internal antenna,
connection for external antenna, and two extra pulse inputs.
See paragraph 7.3 Pulse inputs VA and VB regarding the function of the pulse inputs.
