概要
The RF450 is a frequency-hopping, spread-spectrum radio that operates within the 902 to 928 MHz license-free band. This 1 W radio provides a solution for wireless network communications over longer distances (13 to 60 miles, depending on antenna and line-of sight). Designed specifically for our PakBus® data loggers, the RF450 works particularly well in point-to-multipoint PakBus networks.

詳細
The RF450 consists of a radio module manufactured by FreeWave Technologies and a Campbell Scientific interface board. It reduces susceptibility to RF interference from other spread spectrum devices by providing user-selectable frequency hopping patterns.
Spread spectrum radios spread the normally narrowband information signal over a relatively wide band of frequencies. This process allows communications to be more immune to noise and interference from RF sources such as pagers and cellular phones.

| CR5000 (リタイア) | The RF450 does not support a connection with more than one CR5000 or CR9000X datalogger, because the host RF450 radio does not support slave switchable addressing and our CR5000 and CR9000X dataloggers do not have PakBus routing protocol. | |

| CR9000X (リタイア) | The RF450 does not support a connection with more than one CR5000 or CR9000X datalogger, because the host RF450 radio does not support slave switchable addressing and our CR5000 and CR9000X dataloggers do not have PakBus routing protocol. Although the CR9000X is compatible, the RF450 does not support its fastest communication rates, and therefore may not be practical for many CR9000X applications. |

Other Spread-Spectrum Radios
The RF450 can be used in networks containing FGR-115 radios. Campbell Scientific does not recommend using the RF450 with our RF401-series radios or RF430-series radios.
Enclosure Considerations
A desiccated, non-condensing environment is required. The RF450 includes built-in keyhole flanges for mounting to the backplate of a Campbell Scientific enclosure.

すべて展開すべて折りたたむ
-
Any RS-232 transmission will work with the RF450.
-
There are many cavity- and notch-type filters available from third-party manufacturers.
-
No. They do not use the same over-the-air communications protocol. In fact, unless extra steps are taken, the two models will cause interference with each other.
-
Yes. This type of connection is called a PakBus network. The intermediate CR1000 needs to be enabled as a router, and a suitable telemetry link needs to exist between the two CR1000 dataloggers.
-
Antenna selection depends on multiple criteria:
- Consider how many stations a particular station needs to communicate with. For remote stations in communication with only one repeater or base station, a directional or Yagi antenna may be an appropriate choice. In contrast, repeater stations that receive data from many different locations will probably require an omnidirectional antenna.
- Consider if a high-gain antenna is needed to overcome the path between two points. Higher-gain antennas are larger and more expensive.
To help with antenna selection and site placement, consider renting and using a demo kit to test the pathway quality. Campbell Scientific offers a 900 MHz demo kit for the RF401, RF430, CR206X, and AVW206, as well as a demo kit for the RF450. Contact Campbell Scientific for assistance.
