Description
The TRM-xxx-DP1203 is a complete Radio 
Transceiver Module operating in the 433, 
868 and 915MHz license free ISM (Industrial 
Scientific and medical) frequency bands. 
The TRM-xxx-DP1203 offers the unique 
advantage of high data rate communication 
up to 152.3kbps. The radio module is suitable 
for applications seeking to satisfy the European (ETSI EN300-220-1 and 
EN301 439-3) or the North American (FCC part 15.247 and 15.249) 
regulatory standards.
The TRM-xxx-DP1203 modules can be used in any environment where 
wireless remote connection is an advantage. They are perfect for complex 
wireless networks involving high speed data rate applications.

Warning:
Linx radio frequency ("RF") products may be
used to control machinery or devices remotely, including machinery 
or devices that can cause death, bodily injuries, and/or property 
damage if improperly or inadvertently triggered, particularly in industrial 
settings or other applications implicating life-safety concerns. No Linx 
Technologies product is intended for use in any application without 
redundancies where the safety of life or property is at risk.
The customers and users of devices and machinery controlled with 
RF products must understand and must use all appropriate safety 
procedures in connection with the devices, including without limitation, 
using appropriate safety procedures to prevent inadvertent triggering by 
the user of the device and using appropriate security codes to prevent 
triggering of the remote controlled machine or device by users of other 
remote controllers. 
Do not use this or any Linx product to trigger an action directly 
from the data line or RSSI lines without a protocol or encoder/ 
decoder to validate the data. Without validation, any signal from 
another unrelated transmitter in the environment received by the module 
could inadvertently trigger the action. This module does not have data 
validation built in.
All RF products are susceptible to RF interference that can prevent 
communication. RF products without frequency agility or hopping 
implemented are more subject to interference. This module does 
not have frequency agility built in, but the developer can implement 
frequency agility with a microcontroller.
Do not use any Linx product over the limits in this data guide. 
Excessive voltage or extended operation at the maximum voltage could 
cause product failure. Exceeding the reflow temperature profile could 
cause product failure which is not immediately evident.
Do not make any physical or electrical modifications to any Linx 
product. This will void the warranty and regulatory and UL certifications 
and may cause product failure which is not immediately evident.
