These routers are used in conjunction with the
RF-RX20 or RF-RX40 receiver units, and RF-RS series of battery
powered radio sensors, and are used to route signals from battery
powered nodes and other routers to the receiver module, where the signal
strength of a direct path is not sufficient for reliable communications.

Note:
Each router can support a maximum
of 16 ‘children’, which can consist of a maximum of 8 battery powered
nodes and 8 routers, or up to 16 routers if there are no battery powered
nodes.
Consideration should be given to network planning for redundancy
in case of router failure or damage.
Routers automatically find the best
path back to the receiver, which may be directly to the receiver or via
other ‘parent’ routers.
24V powered routers are available in five formats
Space mounting temperature, with setpoint &
momentary switch options
Space mounting RH&T, with setpoint and
momentary switch options
Routers are used to route signals from battery
powered nodes and other routers to the receiver module, where the signal
strength of a direct path is not sufficient for reliable communications.
Data is transmitted back to the receiver at configurable time intervals,
or on a configurable change in measured value. Each sensor retains these
configurations if the battery becomes discharged or requires replacement.
The sensors, routers and receiver automatically
select which of the 16 transmission channels available gives the best
radio network performance, taking into account both signal strength and
interference levels from adjacent channels and equipment (such as Wi-Fi
etc.) The sensors and routers automatically find the best path back to
the receiver, which may be directly to the receiver or via “parent”
routers.
NB Each router can support a maximum of 16 “children”,
a maximum of 8 of which can be battery powered “end devices” and a
maximum of which can be 8 routers. Consideration should be given on
network planning for redundancy in case of router failure or damage.
Installation & Location
Refer to product datasheets for full
technical specifications and installation notes. Sensors, whether
battery powered or 24V router types, have configurable parameters to
optimise system operation.
These are:
Measurement interval
Significant change of value for;
Temperature
RH
Setpoint level
Label (10 character limit)
Receiver output channel mapping Receivers,
and routers without sensor features, have no configurable
parameters.
