Figure 2. An MAS network provides communications between a central
host computer and remote terminal units (RTUs) or other data collection
devices. The operation of the radio system is transparent to the computer
equipment.

Point-to-Point System
Where permitted, the transceiver may also be used in a point-to-point
arrangement as shown in Figure 3.
A point-to-point system consists of
just two radios. It provides a simplex or half-duplex communications
link for the transfer of data between two locations. Refer to
Continu-
ously Keyed versus Switched Carrier Operation on page 2
for additional
information.
