6.1.1.4 Repeater Mode

a. Select the Repeater checkbox if the Zlinx Xtreme I/O Module is to be used as a repeater, re-broadcasting I/O data

received in Modbus or Peer-to-Peer modes.

The default value of the Repeater field is unchecked.

6.1.1.5 RF Data Rate

900 MHz Xtreme Modules allow you to configure the over-the-air RF Data Rate. Using 9600 baud on these modules
increases the effective range of the module.

This data rate may be configured for 9600 baud or 115200 baud.

NOTE: Repeater Mode can only be implemented on the ZXT9-IO-222R2 Xtreme I/O Modules.
