Fast, bidirectional wireless links between I/O nodes are made simple by the 750-644 Bluetooth RF-Transceiver module. Within 1 0ms, the 750-644 exchanges data up to 1000 m (line-of-sight) or 100 m (within buildings), providing control engineers with a cost-effective wireless solution. This makes the 750-644 suitable for a wide range of applications from robot controls and high-bay warehouses to both renewable and traditional energy applications, such as oil fields. One 750-644 master can communicate with up to seven slaves on a personal-area network (PAN), also known as a piconet, via Bluetooth 2.0+EDR radio technology. Slave-to-slave data transmission is possible indirectly through the master. The 750-644 Bluetooth module offers robust communications with frequency hopping procedures and adaptive transmitting power technologies, which allows the piconet to co-exist with other radio technologies found in industrial applications. Additionally, the data exchange can be encrypted, maximizing security. The module carries eight on-unit LEDs for on-site diagnostics of interference, signal quality and timeouts. The 750-644 also features an SMA socket for the company’s 758-912 antenna, data contact and power jumper contacts. WAGO CORP., Germantown, WI. (800) 346-7245.
