System Layouts
Serial data radios are used to connect a control system (e.g. a Modbus RTU master) to one or more local wireless networks through a DX80
Gateway operating as a Modbus slave. The data radios are transparent; they do not need addressing, error checking, or acknowledgement in
the radio packets. Instead, a data stream appearing on the serial input of one radio is reproduced on the serial outputs of all other radios within
the same network.
