How do antennas influence the range of radio systems?
"Many of our customers are finding that a Bluetooth wireless connection can transmit up to 1km." The point is this: A wireless module is a very important part of any wireless solution, but its main function is to convert signals from PLCs…
Does the safety watchdog time need to be adjusted for wireless communication?
Yes, the safety monitoring time in the radio data transmission system must be aligned with the safety monitoring time (watchdog time) in the PLC. Detailed information on this is available in the webinar "PROFIsafe via radio" or through a personal…
How does DATAEAGLE differ from other radio systems?
