FLEXIBLE RF PROTOCOL
Embedded into Laird Technologies’ 900MHz and 2.4GHz FHSS modules, FlexRF technology
supports unrivaled exibility in industrial wireless applications. OEMs have the ability to control
and optimize both the radio module and the network, allowing them to develop a highly
reliable system for their specic application.
Numerous “software hooks” empower, control, and provide exibility. They allow designers
to mold the communication link around applications, as opposed to squeezing the application
into axed communication technology or standard. Each transceiver is designed to provide
OEMs with a feature-rich, high-performance, congurable, secure, compatible, integrated
solution, allowing OEMs to build the most optimized network possible.
RF PROTOCOL MODES
a) Communication
Unicast (one-to-one addressing)
Broadcast (one-to-multiple addressing)
b) Fast sync time
d) Random back-off
e) Dynamic radio data table:
Retains data from up to 32 radio modules
f) Congurable retries
g) Auto channel
INTERFACE PROTOCOL
a) On-the-y radio module conguration:
Full API control
Destination address
RF transmit power
RF channel
Broadcast/addressed
b) Raw data or transmit/receive API
c) Battery monitor
d) A/D, PWM Output and Generic I/Os
e) Variable baud rate
f) Congurable RF packet size,
timeout control
g) Onboard temperature sensor
h) Handshaking, CTS/RTS
i) In-range indicator
j) Error detection, onboard CRC, duplicate
packet ltering
SECURITY
a) Frequency hopping air interface
b) System IDs
c) Unique IEEE MAC Addresses
d) Proprietary hardware
e) Proprietary protocol
