SATELLINE-1870

A lightweight Radio Modem for internal applications

SATELLINE1870 is small and economical radio modem . Thanks to its small size, as well as low output power consumption the SATELLINE-1870 is particularly well suited for internal applications within factories.

The SATELLINE-1870 uses the pan-European free 868 ... 870 MHz frequency band. This band is divided into sub-bands according to the output power and duty cycle allowed for the transmitter. When changing the frequency the user need not worry about the output power limitation; the modem automatically sets the output power according to the regulations. Due to the limited output power the communication distances are from 2 to 5 kilometers as maximum depending on surroundings. By using repeater stations and addresses the range of the radio modem network can be extended.

SATELLINE-1870 is compatible with RS-232 interface. The modem can be connected to a terminal with a ribbon cable or by wiring a D9 connector. Like with the preceding models, assembling is performed with 2.5 mm screws, Velcro tape or the DIN-rail with a special installation kit. The settings of the SATELLINE-1870 radio modems can be modified by SL-commands in the normal communication mode or through an external terminal in the programming mode. The software of the SATELLINE-1870 resides in a flash memory. The flash memory is easily re-programmable through a programming device.
