Introduction
1.1 Purpose and Use
The Receiver/Repeater 2A ( FCC ID: MLLGL2RPT150 ) is a data link transceiver that is
used for data transfer in Miltel’s radio system. The system is used for utility
consumption readings collection system as well as for other applications such as in
agricultural systems. This device is installed on-site by a professional field technician,
thus it includes technical terms. The equipment is not to be installed by a non-
professional individual that has not been trained and authorized.
1.2 System General Description
The Receiver/Repeater 2A system is a computerized fully automatic radio device. It
requires no human intervention after initial installation. The device acts as a store-
and-forward radio relay. The Receiver/Repeater 2A operates as a receiver connected
to a bases station or as a repeater that captures transmissions from a Miltel transmitter
and, after validating the message, transmits the message again. When operating as a
Repeater the device relays information from transmitters to a receiver that is
connected to the base station which is typically implemented as a regional
concentrator or as a standard PC. The concentrator/PC transfers the data to the
central computer for data collection and for further analysis and reporting.
When operating as a receiver, the device receives messages transmitted by Miltel
transmitters or messages relayed by a repeater. The receiver can also send commands
to any of the repeaters.
