RF channel and output power level can be set using the configuration commands ‘C’ and ‘P’
respectively. The data rate can only be changed in configuration memory by using the ‘M’
command setting RF_DATA_RATE, and must be set according to M-Bus mode. The default
RF channel and output power level can be set in the configuration memory by using the ‘M’
command setting RF_CHANNEL and RF_POWER. The default values are used after power
ON and RESET. The default factory settings are shown in bold in the table above.
For more details on changing the RF channel, output power or data rate, refer to the
description of the configuration commands.
The use of RF frequencies, maximum allowed RF power and duty-cycles are limited by
national regulations. The RC1180-MBUS is complying with the applicable directives within the
European Union. For more information see section Regulatory Compliance Information page
