Typical Site
The typical site is composed of a master building and auxiliary buildings. All buildings
(or hardwired subnetworks) have a Wireless module to communicate with each other
using radio frequency (RF) signals. In all, the Agri-Alert Wireless system allows estab-
lishing communication between up to 8 buildings (1 master & 7 slaves) at distances
as far as 6,500 feet (2 kilometers).
The following graphic shows a case where the master building is used in combination
with two auxiliary buildings (house & hardwired subnetwork).
There should be only one Master
Wireless module per site installation.
To know if your module is a
Master or Auxiliary unit, check if there
is a
M
sticker on the radio module.
Auxiliary Wireless modules do not
have this sticker on their radio.
