The RC250 Modbus GEN II Receiver can be used as a receiver unit for the GEN II transmitters to provide a serial Modbus output for up to 160 active channels. The RC250 is a self-contained mains powered receiver unit with built-in batteries providing more than 24 hours of operation in the event of a mains failure. An LCD is incorporated to show signal strength and serial number of last transmitter received. The RC250 unit can be used with any GEN II transmitters. The GEN II System uses a licence free 434MHz one way transmission frequency.
The RC250 Modbus GEN II Receiver is a high performance telemetry receiver unit designed for use with the standard GEN II range of telemetry transmitters, repeaters and accessories. It outputs RS232 Modbus RTU (RS485 option) or serial data to a connected PC for integration into industry standard PC Software. Such software could include LabVIEW, DASYlab, Wonderware or proprietary software compliant to CFR21 Part 11.
