COMMUNICATION PARAMETERS OF AN AGROBEE-L MODULE
The following parameters are in the Communication Parameters menu of the Module Reader,
which allow you to establish the communication of a certain AgroBee-L module with a controller:
• Module Module number in the network. It is used to distinguish all modules that may be
associated with an Agrónic. The module number cannot be repeated in the same Agrónic:
‒ 1 to 20 (timing in normal mode)
‒ 1 to 10 (timing in priority mode)
• Band Frequency Band:
‒ 868MHz or 915MHz (default value, depending on the model)
‒ 433MHz (only available in models that also support 868MHz band)
• Channel Frequency channel number:
‒ 1 to 13 (independent from the band used)
• TX Mode Transmission method. Set the radio's transmission and reception parameters.
‒ 1 to 18 (mode 5 set by default):
∙ Mode 1: The shortest coverage length permitting the lowest lag time
∙ Mode 18: The greatest coverage length, but with the most lag time
• Timing 2 timing modes:
‒ Normal mode (recommended): It is automatically set according to the chosen
transmission mode, but always includes the communication of up to 20 modules. Value
between 60" and 200".
‒ Priority mode: It is automatically set according to the chosen transmission mode and
includes the communication of up to 10 modules. Value between 30" and 100".
• Network code It differentiates the information from several controllers with the same
communication parameters (band, channel, and transmission mode). The Agrónic serial
number is assigned by default.

For an AgroBee-L module to establish communication
with a certain Agrónic, you must set, through the reader,
the parameters that have just been described, according
to those established in the Agrónic in question. In the
Agrónic, you can modify these parameters in 'Parameters
