  • Page 11: Product Overview

    RFC1000 Product Overview MadgeTech has designed the RFC1000, a high powered transceiver that has a substantially long transmission range, providing enhanced performance in occluded environments (ovens, refrigerators, etc.). The RFC1000 also features an external antenna, allowing more flexibility with mounting positions in both orientation and proximity to metal walls. The device may be used as a repeater, or directly plugged into the Windows PC.
  • Page 12: Mounting Instruction

    Product User Guide Mounting Instructions For best wireless performance, both the RFC1000 and the MadgeTech 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.
  • Page 13: Channel Programming

    Channel Programming The RFC1000 transmits data on the 2.4GHz band and is programmed by default on channel 11. Each MadgeTech 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.
  • Page 14: Deployment & Activation
