Appendix D. Setting Up RF401-to-CR206(X) Communications

Below is a description of all of the Power Mode options:

• No Radio—datalogger model has no radio (not used with this application).

• Always ON—radio always on; 25 mA continuous current drain; does not

transmit wakeup header (alternatively you may check the "Ignore” box to

disregard the Power Mode setting and keep the radio always on).

• 1 Sec—radio wakes up every second for 100 msec to look for wakeup

header; 2 mA current drain; does not transmit wakeup header. This option

has the minimum latency but should not be used if the receiving radio has

a sleep cycle.

• 1 Sec with Long Header—radio wakes up every second for 100 msec to

look for wakeup header; 2 mA current drain; transmits a 1.2 second

wakeup header if needed.

• 8 Sec with Long Header—radio wakes up every 8 seconds for 100 msec to

look for wakeup header; 0.5 mA current drain; transmits a 8.2 second

wakeup header if needed.

• 8 Sec—radio wakes up every 8 seconds for 100 msec to look for wakeup

header; 0.5 mA current drain; does not transmit wakeup header. This

option should not be used if the receiving radio has a sleep cycle.

• Pin Enabled—radio is program controlled; does not transmit wakeup

header.

D.2 Example Setup 1 - LoggerNet to CR206(X)

The following is a typical setup for an RF401 connected to PC with a link to a

CR206(X) (always a leaf node, never a router) in a PakBus network.

CR206(X) Setup for Example 1 (see Figure D-4):

1. Enter PakBus Address 1.

2. Select PakBus Aware for RF Protocol.

3. Select Hop Sequence 0.

4. Select Network (Address) 0.

5. The Radio Address is fixed at 0 when the RF Protocol is PakBus Aware.

6. Select Power Mode 1 Sec with Long Header to economize station power.
