AGRI-ALERT WIRELESS MODULE
1. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The Agri-Alert Wireless module allows transparent wireless communication of the
Agri-Alert 9600 alarm system and its sub-modules between livestock buildings. In all,
up to 8 barns (1 master & 7 slaves) can remotely communicate together without
having to bury wires underground.
Hardwired connections usually offer the highest level of reliability. However, in many
situations where traditional cabling is problematic, wireless networking can provide
an interesting alternative.
Why Choose the Agri-Alert Wireless module ?
• Easy installation and advanced radio technology will save you
time and money;
• Overcome the distance and topography problems of hardwire:
- Risky digging situations (presence of buried pipes, cables, gas lines, etc.);
- Obstacles impede the connection between barns (roads, fields, rivers, etc.);
- Barns are a long way apart.
• Seamlessly integrate wireless communication with current
in-place hardwire.
• Use wireless communication to connect a remote distance house
to an existing Agri-Alert system.
