The SETUP window is used to create a device map which contains the RF Link
information. This information includes the station ID, communication path and
conditions for calling a particular field station. Procedures for creating an RF
communications link are explained in Section 1 of the PC208W manual.
Basic steps required to setup an RF link include: 1) select appropriate
communications port (COM Port), 2) attach RF modem to COM port, and 3) attach
datalogger to RF modem. The default COM port settings should not be changed.
The RF modem default settings do not need to be changed. The default datalogger
settings do not need changing except for the “Dialed using RF 95 path:”.
The RF Path (Dialed Using RF 95 Path:), found on the datalogger hardware tab of
the setup screen, designates which field station to call. In the example shown, the
base station will call the field station with an RF path of 10. If a repeater is needed
to contact Field Station 10, the repeater ID must also be specified. For example,
"RF Path: 5 10F," would call Field Station 10 through a repeater with a Station ID
of 5. The "F" at the end of the RF Path is optional and is explained later. Click on
