2 Overview
2.1 Introduction
The iRIS (iQuest Remote Information Source) datalogger range has been designed as cost effective, low
power, self-contained information sources for use in a wide range of data gathering and logging applications.
The iRIS achieves network connectivity through the use of an integral wireless modem. Depending on the
application and target market, this modem will be one of the following:
 Multi-band 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz GSM/GPRS
 3G HSDPA / WCDMA (for example Telecom XT® in New Zealand and Telstra NextG® in Australia)
 CDMA-1X (this is a legacy technology that is not available for the iRIS 350)
This modem also supports the alternative connection options of CSD (Circuit Switched Data) and SMS
(Short Message Service). These options require the appropriate service to be enabled by the wireless
service provider.
