Multipoint network

FreeWave Technologies launched its newest communications protocol, the FGRIO Modbus multipoint network. According to the company, it eliminates the need for wired connections between the host and the remote terminal unit (RTU). The network facilitates direct analog and digital wireless connections to all FGRIO functions. The master radios deliver data to the RTU or programmable logic controllers through a 232/485 data port and offer a 20-bit analog conversion.

The company also is offering a new solar power kit with a 5 W, 12 V solar panel. It has a 4 A charge controller, a 12V, 7 AH battery and a ruggedized, weatherproof enclosure. Mounting hardware and wiring are included.
