Functional principle
The DX80 system forms a radio-based network for wireless, bidirectional transmission of sensor signals in a star topology. It consists of a gateway that transmits the I/O signals to the control system and to as many as 47 nodes, with each node taking up to 12 sensors/actuators. The system is configured via the gateway with the included software. You can supply different components with DC voltage either via the power grid or self-sufficiently via battery or solar cell. Depending on the type of gateway used, simultaneous transmission of different measured and switching values is possible as well as communication via RS485 interface.
