Figure 4 shows a common connection scenario. The TX/RX antenna is required for basic operation. The
power connection allows for a wide range of input DC power, whether the user system is a nominal 12 or
24 VDC supply system. A setup PC can be connected via the serial port, allowing for setup and
configuration of the ViPR unit as well as local and remote diagnostics. It may be left connected at all
times but is not required for normal operation once the unit has been configured. The Ethernet port allows
end users Ethernet-capable RTU or PLC to be connected.
