Quick Links

The RAELink3 compact, portable radio-frequency modem provides long-range wireless
communication between remote portable air monitors and a base station/computer for
comprehensive monitoring. Up to 64 RAELink3-equipped monitors can be networked with
a single Host.
The RAELink3 can be configured to act in one of the following modes:
1. Remote. The RAELink3 Remote functions as a slave modem and communicates to a
host modem with the same network ID.
2. Host. The RAELink3 Host functions as a host modem and communicates with multiple
wireless modems.
3. Repeater. The RAELink3 Repeater functions as a repeater for RAELink3 Remote
modems (or AreaRAE or RAELink series products) with the same network ID.

Battery Replacement

The RAELink3 can use a rechargeable lithium-ion battery or an alkaline battery pack. It
can also be operated on its charger. To take the rechargeable battery or alkaline battery
pack out of the RAELink3, remove the 3 Phillips-head screws and lift it out. To replace the
AA batteries in the alkaline battery pack, remove the two Phillips-head screws on the
inside, remove the cover, and replace the 5 AA batteries (Duracell MN1500 or Energizer
E91 only). Make sure that the polarity ("+" and "-") for each battery is correct. Do not mix
old and new batteries. Only change batteries in a non-hazardous location.
Setup & Battery Charging
Before using the RAELink3, charge the Li-ion battery by attaching the instrument to the
Charging Adapter.
1.
Align the Charging Adapter with the back of the RAELink3 (two guides match indents
on the back of the Charging Adapter.
2.
Slide the Charging Adapter onto the back of the RAELink3.
3.
Make sure the latch clicks into place. (Press the latch when detaching the charger.)
4.
Plug the power supply's connector into the input on the side of the Charging Adapter.
5.
Plug the power supply into the wall outlet.
The LED Charging Indicator in the Charging Adapter should glow red to indicate it is
charging, and glow green when the battery is fully charged.
