Other protocols � Application: where emphasis is SCADA on speed and reliability. placed are implemented as required. In contrast to standard radio modems on the market a unique, highly secure and efficient system protocol is used on the radio channel and individual protocols (Modbus, IEC, DNP3, Profibus, etc.) are supported for communication over serial or Ethernet interface. Modems are manufactured in simplex, half-duplex and fullduplex options with an out-put power of 5 or 25 Watt. Typical areas of use Telemetry and SCADA for ■ water supply ■ oil & gas supply ■ electric power distribution automation User port modules Serial interfaces: available variants - 2xRS232, 1xRS232 (optically isolated), 1XRS422/485. Ethernet: fully-fledged Ethernet interface automatically sets communication to a speed of 10 or 100 Mbit/s. Control and diagnostics All SCADA radio system components are set up and controlled using programs based on MS Windows and Linux. The programs communicate with the radio network via serial port or Ethernet either directly with the local device or remotely with any other device in the system. Remote network supervision becomes therefore much simpler and reliable as multiple access points can be utilized. Control programs can be used for setting up or diagnosis of the radio parameters, the communication parameters and the user interfaces. They also support monitoring of operation on the radio channel and on user interfaces, obtaining statistics, etc. It is possible to save and load a file with the complete device configuration. Equipment firmware can be locked at several levels against unautho
