8. APPLICATION EXAMPLES
8.1 The following examples provide demonstrations ofRITRON
operation. All examples are included and can be loaded as Software Programming
configuration files on the accompanying programming disk.
8.1.1 These are not "stand alone" examples. Examine and understand each example in sequence
before proceeding to the next. These illustrations and demonstrations have been designed
to run in a laboratory environment using dummy loads for antennas.
8.1.2 The frequency programmed into the configuration files is 460 MHz. If your RTU system
does not operate in this band, change the configuration file frequency to reflect a value you
8.1.3 UPLOAD or DOWNLOAD commands that change RTU configuration also disable the
transmitter. Cycle the RTU by turning it OFF then ON to re-enable the transmitter and re­
establish normal RTU operation.
