1. INTRODUCTION
The SD-160 and SD-170 Series (hereinafter called “the radios”) of RF wireless
modems from MAXON utilize the latest technology in its design and manufacturing. Both
the UHF and VHF models are Phase Lock Loop Synthesizer (PLL) / microprocessor
controlled and offer two watts (SD-160 Series) or one to five watts (SD-170 Series) of
power with 16-channel capability. Multiple functions including 1200 to 9600 baud rates,
AC and/or DC audio coupling, GMSK, FFSK and FSK modulation are standard in these
fully programmable wide bandwidth RF wireless modem units. Programmable sub-audio
squelch system (CTCSS & DCS) and two-tone squelch system are newly added to the
signal level detect squelch system (RSSI). GPS Data handling is provided to interface
and control internal GPS receiver.
The radios are programmed using an IBM
®
Personal Computer, DOS
®
or WINDOWS
®
based software, an interface module and a programming cable. This allows the radio to
be tailored to meet the requirements of the individual user and of the System(s) it is
