F.3 LoggerNet Configuration (Transparent Protocol)

There are two ways of configuring the Setup map for a point-to-point

‘network.’ You can represent the RF401s in the Setup map (as RF400s) or

simply leave them off. The simple map usually results in a quicker connection

and requires less typing.

(1)

Point-to-point (not represented)

(a) Setup map:

ComPort_1

CR10X

(2)

Point-to-point (represented)

(a) Setup map:

ComPort_1

RF400

RF400Remote

CR10X

(3) The station’s Maximum Baud Rate is typically 9600

(4) Extra Response Times are typically 0 s

In the case of point-to-multipoint, the RF401s are always represented in the

LoggerNet Setup map (as an RF400) so that LoggerNet can temporarily change

the base RF401’s Radio Address to communicate with one out of a group of

remote RF401s.

(1)

Point-to-multipoint

(a) Setup map:

ComPort_1

RF400

RF400Remote_1

CR10X_1

RF400Remote_2

CR10X_2

RF400Remote_3

CR10X_3

(2) All RF400Remotes have the same Network Address but each

RF400Remote must have a unique Radio Address.
