*1: RTR-500 Series does not have Bluetooth capability.
*2: Also compatible with the following discontinued products: RTR-501/502/503/507S/505, and RTR-500. Please refer to “Compatibility Info for RTR500B and RTR-500
Series” ( https://tandd.com/information/compatible-rtr500b-loggers.html ).
*3: There are US models and EU models in the RTR500B Series. They cannot be used together because they have different wireless specifications.
*4: When using RTR500BC as Repeater. Depending upon conditions it may take up to an additional 2 minutes.
*5: In order to use the external alarm terminal, please purchase the optional alarm connection cable (AC0101).
*6: Client Function.
*7: Battery life depends on several factors, including number of warning reports sent, ambient temperature, radio environment, frequency of communication, and quality
of the battery being used. All estimates are based on operations carried out with a new battery and are in no way a guarantee of actual battery life.
*8: In order to use the GPS function (to attach geographical positioning info to current readings data), please purchase a compatible GPS antenna (SMA Male Connector).
*9: In order to enable sending of warning messages by SMS, a SIM card with SMS functionality is required.
*10: Please prepare a contracted SIM card separately. For the supported SIM cards, contact your local T&D distributor.
