LINK900 radios used in field controllers may be programmed as either a Remote (R) radio or an
Extension (X) radio. A Remote radio may communicate either directly with the Master (M) radio,

with radios programmed as an Extension are used to send and receive data to that field
controller, and also repeat signals to other radios. The site survey process will help determine
