The system is used for utility consumption readings collection system as well as for other applications such as in agricultural systems or general purpose sensor telemetry system. This device is installed on-site by a professional field technician, thus this manual includes technical terms. The equipment should not be installed by a non-professional individual that has not been trained and authorized. 1.2 System General Description The Transceiver 3A 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 Transceiver 3A operates as a Gateway (backhaul receiver) 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 acts as a Gateway (base station) which is typically deployed with a RS232 connection to a PC or with a LAN connection (TCP/IP) that allows backhauling data to the backoffice management system. The Gateway (Receiver) transfers the data to the central computer for data collection and for further analysis and reporting. 4 When operating as a Gateway 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. The Transceiver device is marketed as two models (as a Receiver or as a Repeater) and under three different commercial trade names (Datasense Repeater 3A / Receiver 2A, Galaxy Repeater 3A / Receiver 3A and IrriWise Repeater 3A / Receiver 2A). The Transceiver device (both receiver and repeater) can be hooked up to a PC or to a laptop computer for programming purposes during system setup. 1.3 Theory of Operation The Transceiver 3A is the intermediate link in the wireless telemetry data collection system. It is an independent unit that operates as a repeater (radio relay) or as a gateway backhaul device (receiver). Figure 2-1 (see below) depicts a typical installation of a Transceiver 3A unit. The device is powered by a 12 volt power supply or by a solar powered battery. The Transceiver 3A operates its radio receiver on a continuous basis until it receives a message from a nearby transmitter. After capturing the transmitted data message, it sends out an identical message which is forwarded to the Collector.
