Product User Guide Mounting Instructions For best wireless performance, both the RFC1000 and the data loggers should be mounted in the same orientation. This usually means that the external antenna should be pointing straight up. The antenna can pivot to accommodate either a wall mount or a desk mount.
RFC1000 Channel Programming The RFC1000 transmits data on the 2.4 GHz band and is programmed by default on channel 11. Each wireless Data Logger and RFC1000 has a set of dip switches with which the channel may be programmed. Different wireless channels may be used to create multiple networks in one area, or to avoid wireless interference from other devices.
Step 1: Use the USB Cable, plug the USB end of the cable into an available USB port on the PC. Step 2: Plug the opposite end of the cable into the communication port on the RFCurrent2000A. Step 3: Open the MadgeTech Software. Locate and select the RFCurrent2000A in the Connected Devices panel.
