FLEX The radio-terminal
Point-to-Point-radio connection



Description

FLEX represents a wireless transmission system for signals, data and voice over distances up to 300 meters. The data exchange between FLEX Stations will be realisied by radio connections free of charge. A standard application is a bidirectional point to point transmission between two FLEX-Stations. Input signals from one station will be transmitted to the other station and given to the process as an output signal. A mixture between input and output signals on each device is possible.
Additional to the signal transmission there is a full duplex voice or data transmission facility.
With FLEX devices you can realise a distributed event-message and remote control system. The stations can be located in a radius of 300 meters. One station is used as a master station. This master station controls the communication between all distributed stations and is responsible for the data exchange. It is possible to connect together up to 16 radio stations with the same functionality in one radio network as a low cost application without cabeling and transmission costs.
Each FLEX STATE radio station supplies you with up to 16 digital inputs as potential free inputs and up to 16 digital outputs as open-collector outputs or relay outputs as an option. Signals up to a frequency of 10 Hz will be recognised and transmitted. Configuration work for the FLEX-STATE radio station is usaly not necessary. If it is necessary you can use an optional comfortable PC software for configuration work.
On a display you can see all states of the digital in- and outputs and the quality of the radio signal.
Futhermore the FLEX-VOICE Station is able to establish a full duplex voice channel between two points without any interaction. The FLEX-DATA delivers a full duplex data channel with 19200 bd.

Applications

  • Point-to-multipoint(P2MP) connections via radio
  • Up to 16 stations in a network with FLEX-NET
  • Crossing offical areas (Streets, rivers, obstacles,..)
  • Transmission of remote signals to a central point
  • Transmission of counting pulses from power stations to a central counting station, exact in frequency and value
  • Transmission of signals from objects on rivers or waters to the mainland
  • Establishing of a full-duplex voice channel for i.e. moving vehicles, without any handling
  • Full-duplex data-transmission with 19.200 bd for i.e. data aquisition from remote systems and machines.


FLEX-STATE - two stations connected with complementary in- and outputs.
