6.1.1.3 Network Identifier
a. The Network Identifier field must match the Network Identifier used by the device with which it will communicate.
b. If that device is another Zlinx Xtreme I/O Module, set its Network Identifier the same as the local I/O Module
c.
If that device is a Modbus Radio Modem, its Network Identifier must be configured by using the Radio Modem
Configuration Manager to match that of the I/O module. Refer Radio Modem manual for configuration information.
d. The Network Identifier range is different for both radio types (2.4 GHz and 900 MHz). The table below shows the channel
number ranges in hexadecimal values.

e. If the Network Identifier is changed to outside the default value, it must be matched in the other device as well.
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.
