Overview
Serial radios connect a Modbus control system to one or more DX80 Gateway devices acting as Modbus slaves. The data radios do not
use addressing, error checking, or acknowledgement in the radio packets. Instead, the data stream appearing on the serial input of one
radio within the network is reproduced on the serial outputs of all other radios in the same network. Addressing and error connection
occur at the application layer. The system operates as it would in a hardwired Modbus multi-drop serial network.
All deterministic properties of the DX80 star networks are preserved. If a data radio linkage drops multiple packets, the target DX80
Gateway reacts as if the serial line was cut, driving all outputs in the local TDMA system to the predefined state. The data radio links are
collision free because the master control system uses polling to initiate all data exchanges so all data radio packets originate from the
same place.
Each DX80 TDMA cluster is inherently collision free. The only potential collisions occur when hardwired DX80 Gateway devices and
data radios are collocated. Fortunately, the application layer (Modbus) retries the packet until it succeeds. Using 2.4 GHz radios in the
local TDMA links and 900 MHz in the data radio links (or vice versa) also minimizes data collisions.

This concept can be expanded indefinitely by chaining independent data radio connections through the serial interface. Very large
networks can be created without complex network addressing. Modbus networks can be extended almost without limit while still
maintaining the determinism and latency of the underlying TDMA networks.

Configuration
Network and Device ID
Since the data stream appearing on the serial input of one radio
within the network is reproduced on the serial outputs of all other
radios in the same network, the only configuration necessary is to
set up the network ID and device ID.
To setup the data radio:
Set each radio in the same network to the same network ID
(NID).
Set the device ID of one radio in each NID network to zero.
This radio acts as the time keeper for the radio network and
can be any radio in the network.
Set the device IDs for the other radios within the same
network to any device number other than zero. Except for
the one radio set to device ID zero, the other device ID
settings are ignored by the radio network.

FCC Certification - 900 MHz, 1 Watt Radio
FCC Certification
The DX80 Module complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules and regulations.
FCC ID: UE3RM1809 This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
FCC Notices
IMPORTANT: The DX80 Modules have been certified by the FCC for use with other products without any further certification (as per
FCC section 2.1091). Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.
IMPORTANT: The DX80 Modules have been certified for fixed base station and mobile applications. If modules will be used for portable
applications, the device must undergo SAR testing.
IMPORTANT: If integrated into another product, the FCC ID label must be visible through a window on the final device or it must be
visible when an access panel, door, or cover is easily removed. If not, a second label must be placed on the outside of the final device
that contains the following text: Contains FCC ID: UE3RM1809.
Note
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna,
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiving module,
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiving module is connected, and/or
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Antenna WARNING: This device has been tested with Reverse Polarity SMA connectors with the antennas listed in Table 1 Appendix
A. When integrated into OEM products, fixed antennas require installation preventing end-users from replacing them with non-approved
antennas. Antennas not listed in the tables must be tested to comply with FCC Section 15.203 (unique antenna connectors) and Section
15.247 (emissions).
FCC-Approved Antennas
WARNING: This equipment is approved only for mobile and base station transmitting devices. Antenna(s) used for this transmitter must
be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be collocated or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
DX80 Module may be used only with Approved Antennas that have been tested with this module.
