Raveon Technologies Corp.
2. Overview
The
M8T
RF Paging/Data radio modem is capable of high-speed narrow-band data
communications and POCSAG paging decoding. Its powerful microprocessor enables it to
perform as both a data radio modem and a paging receiver. It contains a receiver, a
transmitter, and modem, creating an easy-to-use transparent data radio link. The
M8T’s
user interface is asynchronous digital data into and out of the
M8T.
Modem operation is
virtually transparent to the user and the configuration of the modem is via the user serial
port.
The M8T can be configured in either a paging decoder mode or a data modem mode. The
command-line interface is similar to Raveon’s other data radio products, and configuring
the mode is very easy. The M8T also has a digital input pin that may be used to electrically
change modem types between data modem and paging modes.
The
M8T
is an easy to use and its re-programmability makes it extremely versatile. Most
parameters within the modem may be re-configured to optimize it for specialized
operations, extended range, or higher data throughput.
It is also available in a receive-only version called the M8R. The M8R is the same electrical
design and has the same features as the M8T except the transmit circuits are not
populated.
