Orion Car Audio 1892 1335 manual Options When Ordering

OPTIONS WHEN ORDERING

Many options are user-programmable, but the options below must be specified when ordering so that the correct version of the Orion can be supplied:

OEM PCB version

The Orion is available uncased as a PCB for mounting in OEM equipment.

In/Out capability

The Orion is also available as a straight radio modem without the telemetry in/out capability.

Frequency band of operation

The Orion can be supplied to operate in the VHF, UHF and higher (e.g. 868MHz) bands. The radio module in each Orion is built to operate over a certain range of frequencies (its switching bandwidth) under software control, for example 450-458MHz. Consult Sales at Wood & Douglas for available frequency bands.

RF Power

The RF power can be chosen from very low powers up to 5W, depending on the radio module.

Data rate

The Orion can operate at up to 19,200 baud maximum. If a lower data rate, up to 9,600 baud, is acceptable, a version which uses less radio spectrum (12.5kHz rather than 25kHz) can be ordered. (Transmitters and receivers must match.)

RSSI output

Analogue output 1 can be configured as a Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) output.

Serial port mode

The serial port can be configured for RS232, RS422 or RS485 protocols. Serial baud rate can be adjusted up to 38,400 baud maximum, hardware flow-controlled using RTS/CTS.
