The CAB-0022 Radio receiver interface cable that connects the receiver to a PC is 5m long. 

Extension cables can be supplied if required, for further information please contact your supplier.

If the computer the receiver is connected to is turned off, communications between the radio gateway and the receiver will stop, but back-up batteries in the receiver will keep it powered and the mesh network will be maintained. Individual data loggers will store their measurements until communications with the gateway can be re-established.

When the computer is turned on again, the radio gateway will request the transmission of any stored data.

Yes, additional receivers can be added to an existing radio system to improve its range or to improve reliability.

Additional receivers can be plugged into the computer running the original receiver and the master gateway on that machine will automatically configure it and add it to the system.

Receivers can also be added to other computers on the same LAN (Local Area Network) and they can then be configured as slave units that will talk to the master gateway running on the original computer.

Yes, we can supply extension cables for the receiver of up to 100m or you can use a USB to Ethernet Connector to connect to a receiver remotely.

Radio receivers can be used as repeaters to improve the range of an installation or to help boost the reliability of a system where there may be obstacles to radio communications.

To use a receiver as a repeater, simply turn it on and position it where needed (the receiver will configure itself within the mesh network automatically and start forwarding data without any other setup).

Yes, the radio system works well indoors and out, through brick walls, concrete walls, and partition walls. Even though the radio waves can not penetrate a metal wall (whether a fridge, or corrugated iron shed), the signal will probably still get through gaps around door seals and other openings.
