COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORY TEST REPORT: 73-6907 FCC ID: NQE-900UHOPPER Page 74 of 103 WWC Micro Hopper Data Radio General Information The Data Radio is a frequency-hopping data transceiver operating in the 902-928 MHz ISM band. The transceiver is designed to operate under Part 15 of the FCC rules and regulations and is designed as an OEM module for professional integration into other products or field devices.
COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORY TEST REPORT: 73-6907 FCC ID: NQE-900UHOPPER Page 75 of 103 The Data Radio is connected to a host device using a 20-pin dual in-line header. This connection provides the radio with the required DC power source and allows the Data Radio to be programmed, configured, and provides I/O lines for a TTL level RS-232 port. Data is transported across the RF channel in a transparent, promiscuous mode.
COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORY TEST REPORT: 73-6907 FCC ID: NQE-900UHOPPER Page 76 of 103 Commands are accepted by the radio when it is in “configure” mode. On the figure of the main menu shown above, “Configure” toggles with “Disconnect.” Select “Configure”, make changes as desired and select “Write.” Your radio is configured. Basic Commands Serial Port on PC Default to COM1. COM8.
COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORY TEST REPORT: 73-6907 FCC ID: NQE-900UHOPPER Page 77 of 103 bytes. (vii) CTS Assert CTS (Clear to Send) Assert, also known as “flow control on,” has a default setting of 100 bytes. (viii) CTS De-Assert CTS De-Assert, also known as “flow control off,” is defaulted to 125 bytes. (ix) TX Assert The volume or amount of time the transmitting radio will collect or wait before it transmits. Default is 10 mS. (x) CD Level Carrier Detect level.
COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORY (xv) TEST REPORT: 73-6907 FCC ID: NQE-900UHOPPER Page 78 of 103 Power Save When enabled, the radio reduces power consumption where possible. The default setting is off. (xvi) RSSI Mode Receive Signal Strength Indicator. Lets you know how strong a receive signal is on any given frequency.
