AIRcable Industrial XR

An intelligent, long-range Bluetooth® designed for industrial wireless sensor interfaces, mesh networking, long–range, and data logging

• Wirelessly programmable in BASIC
• Large, rechargeable Li-ion battery
• Solar cell battery charger
• Software-controlled RS232
• 1 km external antenna included
• Optional 2 km omni, 10 km directional antennas
• Extended range for up to 30 km*

The AIRcable Industrial XR is our flag ship product. Designed for wireless sensor interface, mesh networking and data logging applications with an RS232 port interface. This products is built for outdoor use where autonomous operation, flexible communication and long-range are important features.

These compact Bluetooth® compatible products gather data using intelligent sensors, run computations, transfer files, and communicate using secure, long-range Bluetooth to multiple partners simultaneously.

Programmable and configurable over the air, these units can be clustered together to create low-power, high-efficiency communications networks that interact with other AIRcable products as well as all Bluetooth compatible devices such as PCs, cell phones, and PDAs.

• Based on current Bluetooth® 2.0 standards
  Bluetooth-FTP, Bluetooth-OBEX, Bluetooth-SSP, full simultaneous client and server for easy interoperability with cell phones, PDAs, PCs or any Bluetooth® based device
• Wirelessly programmable
  Simple BASIC programming with powerful built-in functions for IO and communications, and on-board file system for logging data
• Multiple simultaneous connections
  Can connect to multiple Bluetooth devices at the same time, mesh-net capable, bootstrap-configurable. Concurrent master and slave operations supported. Can extend range to any number of hops by acting as a high speed relay
• 3 High-speed data links
  2 wireless, 1 wired at 160 kb/sec per direction, sustained
• Large rechargeable Lithium battery
  with a wide range charger for wired or solar power options

AIRcable Operating System

Based on our advanced AIRcable operating system, the AIRcable Industrial is simple to use and customize, reliable, and compatible with all Bluetooth® wireless devices. The AIRcable Industrial can be programmed over the air because the application software is embedded in the device. The BASIC execution engine performs operations in both connection mode and in autonomous mode. For additional information, see the AIRcable AIRmotes Programming Handbook.

Features:

• RS232 interface
• DTR, DSR freely accessible
• Automatic hardware handshake recognition
• Baud rate control through remote connection, BASIC program, and downloadable configuration
• Advanced power control, low power mode
• Power output 5V @ 50mA on DTR
