概览

The RF400 was a 100 mW spread spectrum radio/modem for point-to-point and point-to-multipoint data logger communications. It could serve as a field radio/modem connected to a data logger or as a base station radio/modem connected to a computer. The RF400 had a 910 to 918 MHz operating frequency range, which was used in the US/Canada.

Note: In the image, the RF400 is shown with the 14204 indoor antenna.

Additional Compatibility Information

Communications

The RF400 can transmit data to another RF400 radio or a CR205 datalogger. The RF400 may also be used in a network with RF401 radios and/or CR206(X) dataloggers if all of the RF401 radios and CR206(X) dataloggers are set to the transparent mode.

Campbell Scientific does not recommend using the RF400 in networks containing FGR-115 or RF450 radios.

Enclosure Considerations

A desiccated, non-condensing environment is required. The 14162 Mounting Kit includes hardware for securing the RF400 to an enclosure backplate (see Ordering Info).

常见问题解答

RF400: 4

展开全部收起全部

  1. To achieve the same characteristics and performance of an original RF401, order the major RF400 to RF401 upgrade service (pn 18207). 

  2. Campbell Scientific continues to provide the RF400 to RF401 upgrade as a service. There is a minor upgrade (pn 18206) and a major upgrade (pn 18207). As the RF401 is now retired, however, it may be a better investment to forego the upgrade and purchase a new, higher output, 250 mW RF401A radio instead. No upgrade service is available to convert an RF400 or RF401 to an RF401A. 

  3. For an RF401A to communicate with an RF400, the RF401A must be configured to use the transparent communications option.

  4. No. In this scenario, the base RF401A can only communicate with the RF400 devices via the transparent communications protocol, or with the CR206X dataloggers via the PakBus protocol.
