GENERAL DESCRIPTION & FEATURES Features FCC Part 90 (transmitter) and Part 15 compliant (receiver) 1 mW / 10 mW selectable Frequency selection free in 32 channels for 457 MHz High sensitivity receiver FM narrow band modulation Applications Mobile / Handheld Portable device defined by FCC Factory automation M2M Remote control Security systems Alarms Telemetry systems General description The CDP-TX-02E-R and CDP-RX-02E-R are a RoHS compliant FCC approved embedded industrial narrowband FM radio transmitter and receiver. They are suitable for various application fields such as wireless data communication, telemetry or wireless security systems. They are easy to use and integrate into application systems. Both CDP-TX-02E-R and CDP-RX-02E-R are equipped with a frequency synthesizer system with micro controller. Available frequency ranges are from 457.5 MHz to 457.8875 MHz (32 channels: 16 ch x 2 groups). The compact size, low operating voltage and frequency selectability of the CDPTX/RX-02E-R make it ideal for various applications where its interference rejection and practical distance range is far better than similar RF modules based on wide band SAW-resonator frequency generators.

CHANNEL AND FREQUENCY SETTINGS By use of a chip mounted 4-bit switch or pins and a jumper on the PCB, you can select easily between the 32 channels. The 32 channels are divided into 2 groups: Group A and Group B. Each group of channels can be selected by soldering the jumper ON or OFF. When the jumper (JP2) is ON, Group A is selected. When the jumper is OFF, Group B is selected. There are 16 channels in each group and they can easily be selected using the 4-bit switch. Before shipment all the modules are set to Group A channel 5.

ANTENNAS The most important factors for safe data transmission are a good antenna and RF grounding, both for the transmitter and the receiver. Without an antenna it is impossible to transmit data over a long distance. The standard antenna is a Lambda/4 wire protected by a plastic cover. The receiver has a simple antenna input pin. Any suitable UHF antenna can be connected to it. The easiest way to connect an antenna to the CDP-RX-02E-R is to solder a 17 cm wire directly to the antenna input. A 50 Ohm coaxial cable can be used to extend the distance between the antenna and the receiver. The shielding of the antenna wire should be soldered to the case near the antenna input of the CDP-RX-02E-R. It is possible, but not recommended to connect the receiver module and the antenna by a connection on the PCB. This will decrease the receiver performance in most cases. To find the best method of installation for the transmitter and receiver, many things should be considered and tested. It is recommended that you read specialized literature on antennas and radiation characteristics to gain a better understanding of these fields. A detailed explanation cannot be given here. Notice: For CDP-TX-02E-R, use the antenna provided. Using other antennas may invalidate compliance with the regulatory standards. In most cases the following basic rules will help you. • Connect an antenna with 50 Ohm impedance for 457 MHz. • The easiest construction is a wire of approximately 17 cm. • Place the antenna vertically, straight up or down from the transmitter and receiver module. • Do not cover the antenna with metal parts. • The connection of the metal surface of the transmitter and receiver case to a larger metal part (ground plane) will increase radiation and reception efficiency. These metal parts should not be placed near the antenna. • The best range is achieved if the transmitter and receiver antenna are in direct line of sight. Any object in between the transmitter and receiver antenna, and metallic objects in particular, will decrease the range. • The transmission is influenced by reflections of the transmitter signal on metallic surfaces. By overlaying the direct and reflected signal with a 180 degree phase shift the signal can almost fade out. These reflections and fade-outs can result in data drop-outs in mobile applications. • The human body can have a similar effect as metal objects. Pocket transmitters should be held in your hand, held in a position away from the body and pointed in the direction of the receiver. OG_CDP-02E-R-457M_v11e 10 Circuit Design, Inc. OPERATION GUIDE.

OG_CDP-02E-R-457M_v11e 16 Circuit Design, Inc. OPERATION GUIDE Cautions • As the radio module communicates using electronic radio waves, there are cases where transmission will be temporarily cut off due to the surrounding environment and method of usage. The manufacturer is exempt from all responsibility relating to resulting harm to personnel or equipment and other secondary damage. • Do not use the equipment within the vicinity of devices that may malfunction as a result of electronic radio waves from the radio module. • The manufacturer is exempt from all responsibility relating to secondary damage resulting from the operation, performance and reliability of equipment connected to the radio module. • Communication performance will be affected by the surrounding environment, so communication tests should be carried out before actual use. • Ensure that the power supply for the radio module is within the specified rating. Short circuits and reverse connections may result in overheating and damage and must be avoided at all costs. • Ensure that the power supply has been switched off before attempting any wiring work. • The case is connected to the GND terminal of the internal circuit, so do not make contact between the '+' side of the power supply terminal and the case. • When batteries are used as the power source, avoid short circuits, recharging, dismantling, and pressure. Failure to observe this caution may result in the outbreak of fire, overheating and damage to the equipment. Remove the batteries when the equipment is not to be used for a long period of time. Failure to observe this caution may result in battery leaks and damage to the equipment. • Do not use this equipment in vehicles with the windows closed, in locations where it is subject to direct sunlight, or in locations with extremely high humidity. • The radio module is neither waterproof nor splash proof. Ensure that it is not splashed with soot or water. Do not use the equipment if water or other foreign matter has entered the case. • Do not drop the radio module or otherwise subject it to strong shocks. • Do not subject the equipment to condensation (including moving it from cold locations to locations with a significant increase in temperature.) • Do not use the equipment in locations where it is likely to be affected by acid, alkalis, organic agents or corrosive gas. • Do not bend or break the antenna. Metallic objects placed in the vicinity of the antenna will have a great effect on communication performance. As far as possible, ensure that the equipment is placed well away from metallic objects. • The GND for the radio module will also affect communication performance. If possible, ensure that the case GND and the circuit GND are connected to a large GND pattern. Warnings • Do not take a part or modify the equipment. • Do not remove the product label (the label attached to the upper surface of the module.) Using a module from which the label has been removed is prohibited. Circuit Design, Inc.

OPERATION GUIDE REVISION HISTORY Version 1.1 Date May. 2008 OG_CDP-02E-R-457M_v11e Description CDP-TX/RX-02E-R 457MHz The first issue 18 Remark Circuit Design, Inc. OPERATION GUIDE Application note (Design guide for RF transmitter and receiver) The following problems generally apply to radio modules Problem Touching or moving the antenna changes its impedance, which causes variations in emission power. The variation appears as distortion in the modulating signal and causes communication errors. If a change in the circuit length occurs due to the on/off of switch etc. in the electronic circuit connected to the radio module in the system in which the radio module is integrated, the high frequency electric potential can vary, disturbing the modulating signal, leading to communication errors. If the power line and/or the signal input line are long the printed line can be subject to high frequency noise. This noise may cause communication errors. Solution Fix the position of the antenna to avoid moving it. Positioning of the antenna is an important factor in operating the radio module efficiently. Add bypass capacitors of 100 to 470 pF in the immediate vicinity of the switches. Make the area beneath the radio module a ground pattern, utilizing part of the shield. Block high frequency elements by adding a choke coil to each line. In order to fix the receiver to the PCB strongly, solder the case to the PCB.
