HN210
Introduction
The HopNet 10 Series family of products provides reliable wireless connectivity for
either point-to-point or point-to-multipoint applications. HopNet products are built
around the WIT2410 radio transceiver, which employs frequency hopping spread
spectrum technology. This technology ensures:
• Maximum resistance to noise
• Maximum resistance to multipath fading
• Robustness in the presence of interfering signals
The HN-210 and HN-210X are NEMA 4X weatherproof versions of the HopNet
product line. The HN-214, which is an HN-210 with a 4 ft. cable, is also available.
The interface to the 210 and 210X allows the Host to communicate with the Remote
unit through an integrated 50 ft (15 meter) cable. The HN-210 and 210X can act as
either bases or remotes.
The HN-210 Remote has an internally mounted 6 dBi patch antenna. The built-in
antenna of the HN-210 case greatly eases outdoor installation since no antenna
feedline cable or adapters are needed. The 6 dBi antenna gain increases the radiated
EIRP to +24 dBm and the effective receiver sensitivity to –99 dBm. The HN-210X
has a TNC connector for attaching an external antenna and a mounting kit (part no.:
HN210X-MKIT) that accommodates both the HN-210X and any of the following
external antennas:
CORNER249
CORNER2414
OMNI249
OMNI2412
HopNet Benefits
The HopNet family of products is built with rugged enclosures compliant with IP 66
and NEMA 4X standards for outdoor and harsh industrial environments. All Hopnet
products work with each other and can be mixed and matched in a single network. All
HopNet Products are WIT2410 compatible and can be used with WIT2410 OEM
based products as well as with the SNAP2410 10Base T access point.
Operating Frequency
The HopNet family operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band that allows for license-free use
and worldwide compliance.
HopNet Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum Advantages
In the frequency domain, a multipath fade can be described as a frequency selective
notch that shifts in location and depth over time. Multipath fades typically occupy
five percent of the band. A conventional radio system typically has a five percent
chance of signal impairment at any given time due to multipath fading.

HN210
Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum reduces the vulnerability of a radio system to
interference from jammers and multipath fading by distributing or spreading the
signal over a larger region of the frequency band.
The fade resistant, HopNet frequency-hopping technology employs up to 75 channels
and switches channels over 100 times a second to achieve high reliability throughput.
HopNet Data Integrity
An on-board 3 KB buffer and error correcting over-the-air protocol ensure data
integrity even in the presence of weak signals or jammers. The serial interface
handles both data and control of asynchronous data rates of up to 230 Kbps.
Flexible Power Management
The power can be set at 10 milliwatts or 100 milliwatts using the included software.
Reduced power can reduce the size of the coverage zone, which may be desirable for
multiple network indoor applications. You can also place the transceiver module in a
power-save mode, which enables smart power management. Smart power
management allows a remote unit to drop into a lower current standby mode during
transmission or receiving gaps.
This feature also allows Hopnet products to be used in various countries where the
output power requirements may vary due to regulation.
Advanced Features
HopNet modems have many advanced features:
• Employ frequency hopping technology with up to 75 channels in the 2401 to
2475 MHz frequency range
• Support digital addressing for up to 64 networks, with 62 remotes per
network.
• Use transparent ARQ protocol
• Use same hardware for all supported data rates
• Supports up to 115 Kbps asynchronous data rates
• Full Duplex operation
• Store setup configuration in nonvolatile memory (FLASH)
• Fast acquisition – less than 2 seconds is the typical time to acquire hopping
pattern
• Smart power management features

Guidelines for Installation
When installing your system, always consider the following points:
Directional antennas are best for remote unit sites. They may increase the cost, but
they confine the transmission path to a narrow lobe and minimize the interference
from nearby stations.
For systems with constant interference present, you may need to change the polarity
of the antenna system and reduce data streams. Groups of short data streams are more
reliable and have a better chance of success in the presence of interference than do
long data streams.
Systems installed in rural areas are least likely to encounter urban interference.
Multiple HopNet systems can operate in close proximity to each other but require a
unique network address.
Poor quality coaxial cables will seriously degrade system performance. Use low- loss
cable that is suitable for 2.4 GHz operation.
Short cable runs minimize signal loss.
Aiming the Antenna and Placing the Remote
Use the following guidelines for aiming the antenna and placing the Remote.
Do not place anything immediately in front of the antenna that could obstruct its
radiation pattern. Because the antenna in the HopNet Remote is inside the unit, the
antenna must have a clear line of sight.
Use the sticker on the HN-210 Remote unit to help you locate and aim the antenna.
The sticker indicates which direction the antenna is pointing.
Be sure the antenna end of the HN-210 Remote faces the Base or Repeater that it is
communicating with. Our tests have found that antenna placement is not critical as
long as the patch antenna is facing in the general direction of the other end of the link.
If possible, place the Remote unit at a higher elevation than the structures surrounding
it to increase range and link reliability. Since the Remote will operate with up to 100
feet of interconnect cable between it and the Host, you can mount the unit on top of a
building or other structure that will provide higher elevation.
Interconnect Cable
The HN-210 and HN-210X come with 50’ (15 meters) of high quality interconnect
cable. The cable may be lengthened by adding an additional 50’ cable (part no.:
CBLEXT50). The maximum cable length that the HN-210 and HN-210x will support
is 100’ (30 meters).

Configuring the Network
You can configure the HopNet network using a PC and the HopNet Configuration
Wizard software provided by Cirronet, Inc. The Wizard runs under Windows
95/98/NT/2000/XP. This chapter provides the information you need to configure your
network.
HopNet Configuration Wizard (5.0 or later)
If you haven’t already installed the Wizard program, refer to the Getting Started
section of this manual for instructions. Open the Wizard by double-clicking on the
icon on the desktop. When the Wizard boots up, it will automatically detect the serial
port to which the HopNet radio is connected and its baud rate. This process takes a
few seconds to complete. During this process, the “Please wait” screen is displayed.
Once the radio has been found and the Baudrate determined, the “Finished” screen is
displayed. Click on the Continue button to enter the Wizard.
NOTE: The HopNet configuration Wizard is used with a variety of Cirronet radios.
Not all radios support all the functions and features of every Cirronet radio. Thus,
some selections in the Wizard will be grayed out if they are not applicable to the
radio in use.
After detecting the serial port and baud rate of the HopNet radio, the Wizard reads the
settings of the HopNet radio that is connected to the PC and will display them in the
various parameter windows. In the bottom left corner of the Wizard window, the
Base/Remote status, the serial number and the communication port are always
displayed.

NOTE: The S/N displayed in the bottom left corner is the serial number of the
radio inside the unit and is different from the serial number of the HopNet unit.
Both the HopNet unit serial number and the radio serial number are on the radio
unit of the HopNet product. The Wizard will also prompt to save the configuration
settings to a file.
When a parameter value is changed from the value currently in the HopNet radio, the
parameter label and value will turn red and the Apply Settings button will appear.
When the value is changed back to the value that is currently in the attached HopNet
radio, the label and parameter value will return back to black. When new values are
applied to the HopNet radio, the red values will turn black indicating the updated
values in the radio.
NOTE:The changes are not sent to the HopNet radio until the Apply Settings
button is clicked.
Context sensitive help is available through the F1 key or Help menu.

This parameter is also known as Set Hopping and is the same command as wn.(Refer
to “Configuration Commands” section for additional information on commands.) By
using different network numbers or “hopping patterns”, nearby or co-located
networks can avoid interfering with each other’s transmissions.
BaudRate
Also known as Set Data Rate Divisor (command sd) this parameter sets the serial bit
rate between the modem and the host.

Lockout Key
This parameter is the same as wl and allows further network segregation beyond the
network number. This feature allows multiple co-located networks in which global
roaming is enabled. By using different lockout keys, the bases to which remotes link
can be limited or segregated.
Serial Port Settings
This parameter is the same as qs and is only available on radios with Modbus
adapters. It allows the setting of even, odd or no parity, 7 or 8 data bits and 1 or 2 stop
bits.
Roaming Mode
This parameter is the same as wg and allows remote radios to Roam or only link to
specific base stations.
Protocol Mode
This parameter is the same as sp and enables the base station to operate in a
multipoint network. Depending on the user application, more or less
acknowledgment may be desired by the application. Remotes can operate in
transparent mode even though the base station is operating in one of the
nontransparent modes. When using a protocol mode, make sure to count in packet
overhead when calculating network performance. Refer to the section on Protocol
Modes for details on each format.

When the radio is linked to another radio, a communications test can be run by
clicking on the Send Data button (shown below) on both radios. The remote radio’s
Transmit Data window (above left) will display the message, “This is a test message
from the Base radio”, which will repeat until the Stop button is pressed (on the base
radio’s HN Wizard main screen). The base radio’s Transmit Data window (above
right) will display the message, “This is a test message from the Remote radio” which
will repeat until the Stop button is pressed (on the remote radio’s HN Wizard main
screen).

Network Tab Clicking on the Network tab will bring up a second configuration
screen. From this screen it is possible to change the dwell time at which the HopNet
radio hops, set a minimum number of bytes of data the radio must receive before it
will transmit, set a maximum amount of time the radio will wait to receive the
minimum number of bytes before transmitting what is in the radio’s buffer and set the
number of times the radio will repeat a transmission that is not acknowledged before
discarding the data.

Set Data Transmit Delay
Essentially this is the pt command and when used in conjunction with the minimum
data length parameter, sets the amount of time from the receipt of a first byte of data
from the host until the radio will transmit in transparent mode. Default is 00H which
causes transmission to occur without any delay. When a host is sending a group of
data that needs to be sent together, setting this parameter will provide time for the
group of data to be sent by the host before the radio transmits. If the length of data to
be sent together is longer than the time slot can send, the data will not be sent together
but will be broken up over multiple hops. The length of time the radio will wait is
equal to the specified value times the hop duration.
NOTE: The Transmit Delay is specified as a number of hop durations and thus will
be an integer multiple of the Hop Duration. The Maximum Base Packet can only
be set in radios set as a base. If the radio is a remote, this value cannot be changed.
Maximum Base Packet (base station only)
This is the pw command and sets the amount of time allocated for transmission on
each hop for the base station time slot in 4-byte increments. If using a protocol mode,
attempting to send a packet with a length longer than this setting will cause the packet
to be discarded.
Set Minimum Data Length
This is the pk command and sets the minimum threshold number of bytes required to
form a packet in transparent mode. The radio will wait until the data transmit delay
elapses before sending a data packet with less than this number of bytes. This
parameter can be used to keep short, intermittent transmissions contiguous. In packet
modes, the length parameter in the data packet will override this value. This value is
subject to the maximum data length even in packet mode.

Set Packet Retries
This is the pr command and if ARQ Mode is set to 0, it sets the number of times the
radio will attempt to send an unsuccessful transmission before discarding it. If ARQ
Mode is set to 1, it is the number of times every transmission will be sent, regardless
of success or failure of a given attempt. When this parameter is set to 255, RF flow
control mode is entered for transmissions from the radio. This mode can be entered
for one or both radios in a point-to-point system. Using this mode in a point-tomultipoint system will stop transmissions to all radios when any one radio has a full
buffer.
Set Hop Duration
This is the ph command and it sets the length of time the transceiver spends on each
frequency channel. A smaller value will allow the remote to lock on to the base
signal faster at system startup, and will generally decrease packet latency. A larger
value increases network capacity, due to decreased overhead in channel switching.
This Set Hop Duration value only needs to be set in the base which broadcasts the
parameter to all remotes. However, link time can be reduced if this value is also
programmed into the remotes, which use it as a starting value when scanning for the
base.
The speed at which the radio hops affects both latency and throughput. The faster the
radio hops, the shorter the latency but the lower the throughput. The minimum packet
length and packet timeout allow fixed-length packets of data to be transmitted on a
single hop without leaving data stuck in the radio’s transmit buffer.
NOTE: If the hop speed is too fast, there may not be time to send a long packet on a
single hop.
Refer to the Protocol Commands section of this manual for details on these
commands.

¹ The selections in this field will change depending on the frequency band the radio operates in. For 2.4GHz
radios, selecting one of the 802.11b bands in which to operate, the HopNet radio can be used in locations with
802.11b networks without causing interference with those networks. If there are no 802.11b networks present, it
is recommended that the radio be set to operate in the entire band which is the default. For 900MHz radios, there
will only be two bands to select.
² The Radio Power Setting controls how much power is used to transmit data. Unless the HopNet radio operates in
the 2.4GHz band and is being used in the European Union (EU) this setting should be left at the default High
Power. Because of the built-in antenna of the HopNet radio, the 10mW power setting must be used when
operating in an EU country.

Receive and Bi-Directional Transmissions
The Receive Only function displays the percentage success rate for receiving
transmissions from the base. This is an indication of how well the remote HopNet
radio “hears” the base. The Bi-Directional function provides a round-trip success rate.
That is, the base must successfully receive data from the remote and the remote must
successfully receive data from the base. In theory, this percentage should be the
square of the Receive Only percentage. If it is substantially less, it is an indication
that the base HopNet radio is having difficulty “hearing” the remote. Good RF links
will have the Receive Only percentage above 95% and the Bi-Directional percentage
above 90%. These functions operate with the Automatic Retransmit Request (ARQ)
disabled and as such provide an indication of link quality but do not provide an
indication of how often data will get through since in normal operation ARQ is
enabled and the radio automatically and transparently will resend data that was not
received on the first attempt.
NOTE: The Options menu allows for bar graph display (in addition to the pie chart
display) of the Receive Good Packets and Bi-Directional Good Packets data.
Received Signal Strength Indication.
This function will display on a channel basis, the strength of the signal received from
the base by the remote. The values on the Y-axis are only approximate and should not
be used as absolute reading values.

The bars will change color depending on the level of the signal received. The points
at which they change color have been set in the .INI file, default setting for
RSSIMarginal is -60 whereas the default setting for RSSIPoor is -80. Therefore any
bars rising above the -60 level will display green. Conversely, any bars falling below
-80 will display red. Bars at levels between these two points will display yellow.
These points can be modified by editing the INIT.INI file.
Under normal operation, the received signal strength for each channel will fluctuate,
occasionally dropping to nothing indicating the hop was missed by the radio. This
display also shows multipath fading when a channel drops noticeably below the
surrounding channels. Over time, one can see clearly how different channels are
affected to differing degrees.

WinCom Window
Normally, the WinCom Window is not displayed and no tab will appear to the right of
the RF Tools tab. To display the WinCom tab, place the cursor in any hot field and press
the CTRL+F10 key. Clicking on the WinCom tab will display the following screen.
When first initialized, WinCom will automatically put the radio in Config Mode and two
prompts will display as shown above. Both the Com Port and Baud Rate will have been
automatically detected and set providing Auto-Detect is set in the INIT.INI file (default).
If the INIT.INI file has been changed, Com Port and Baud Rate will need to be set
manually.
NOTE: In order to display the banner, you will need to press the F1 key twice, toggling
the DTR which resets the radio and causes a new banner to display. WinCOM deasserts and re-asserts the DTR line to the radio which resets the radio causing the signon banner to be displayed as shown below.
The banner indicates the radio firmware version, whether the radio is operating as a base
or a remote and the unique factory serial number of the radio module. If nothing is
displayed in the communications window of WinCOM, verify the COM port and baud
rate settings, then reset the radio (by hitting F1 twice). Cycling power to the radio also
will cause the sign on banner to be displayed.

NOTE: If the banner does not display, check the Banner Display Disable command
(zb0) which may have been enabled.
The COM port and baud rate can be changed using the drop down menus on the bottom
right. All the available COM ports will be listed in the menu but will have OK or N/A
designated. If another program that uses a COM port is open, that COM port will not be
available for use by WinCOM.
The boxes on the lower right of the WinCOM window provide the status of the COM
port flow control being used to communicate with the radio. Note that DCD is only
asserted by radios configured as remotes when they are linked to a base radio. Radios
configured as bases always assert DCD even if no remotes are linked. Clicking on the
DTR or RTS buttons will change the state of the respective signal line in the COM port.
The radio is normally in data mode – data that is sent to it from the PC is transmitted over
the wireless connection. When the WinCOM window is active, keys typed on the
keyboard will be sent to the radio and will be transmitted. Unless the “Echo” box is
checked the typed data will not be displayed in the WinCOM window of the sending
radio.
To change configuration parameters, the radio must be put into configuration mode by
clicking on the Config Mode button on the WinCOM window immediately after opening
WinCOM or after cycling power to the radio. Another method is to toggle the DTR by
pressing the F1 key twice, which de-asserts then re-asserts DTR, then pressing the F3 key
(or Config Mode button).
When the radio is in configuration mode, a “>” prompt character is displayed in the
WinCom window as shown above. Configuration parameters are sent to the radio by
entering them in the WinCom window after the “>” prompt and pressing the Enter key.

If an invalid command or value is entered, the radio will respond with “Error” as shown
above Until the command to save the parameters (m>) is issued, the new parameters will
only be valid until power is cycled or DTR is toggled by pressing the F1 key twice.
New parameter values that have been issued are saved to non-volatile memory using the
“m>” command. Refer to the Memory Commands section for details on this and other
helpful memory commands.
To exit configuration mode from the WinCom screen, use the “z>” command and press
Enter as shown below.
The return to the data mode is indicated by an absence of the “>” prompt. Refer to the
Configuration Commands section below for details on all the configurable parameters.
When the radio is linked to another radio, a communications test can be run by clicking
on the Transmit button or pressing the F6 key. Whatever ASCII string is in the Transmit
String window will be transmitted as shown below.
If the other radio is sending data, the received data will be displayed in the WinCOM
window.
If the Binary box is checked, all characters received will be displayed subject to the
limitations of Windows. For example, a carriage return will not return the cursor to the
left side of the window but the character corresponding to 0xd value of the carriage return
will be displayed. Similarly, if the Hex Mode box is checked, all characters are displayed
in hexadecimal format.

Recover
When the Wizard program is opened, it reads the parameters of the HopNet radio
connected to the PC. These initial parameters are stored by the Wizard until the
program is closed. This function allows the initial parameters to be loaded into any
HopNet radio that is connected to the PC. Clicking on the Recover button displays the
settings stored when the Wizard was first opened but will not load them in the radio
until the Apply Settings is clicked. When the Apply Settings button is clicked, all the
changed values will be loaded into the radio, even if the changed values are not on the
tab currently displayed.

Restart
The Restart button on the Wizard causes the program to start the radio search and
parameter load process again without shutting the program down. This is particularly
useful when USB-to-RS-232 adapters are used that prevent the Wizard from detecting
that a radio has been disconnected from the computer running the Wizard. If a radio is
disconnected from the computer and the Wizard does not detect it, the Restart button
should be clicked when it or another radio is connected. Note that clicking the Restart
button will not change the parameter values stored for use by the Recover button.
Saving Configurations
Configuration settings that have been applied from the Wizard can be saved for future
use. The Wizard prompts to save changes on initial boot-up, after changes have been
applied and on exiting the Wizard if the changes have not previously been saved. The
default filename for the configuration settings is “hn_xxxxxx.cfg” where xxxxxx is
the serial number of the radio in the HopNet (This serial number is also on the outside
of the radio). To save a configuration under another filename, simply enter the
desired filename in the dialog box. Once a configuration has been saved, it can be
used to set up additional HopNet radios with the same configuration by clicking on
the Load command on the File menu. You will be prompted for a filename to load.
Loading the file will load the parameters into the Wizard program but will not
program the settings into the HopNet radio until the Apply Settings button is clicked.

Configuration Commands
The HN-210 has a wide selection of configuration parameters that can be modified
using one or more of the configuration commands. The commands can be grouped
into five categories based on what they do. The five sections are:
• Serial Interface Commands
• Network Commands
• Protocol Commands
• Status Commands
• Memory Commands
Each command is described in detail below. In the descriptions, brackets ([,]) are
used to denote a set of optional arguments. Vertical slashes (|) separate selections.
For example, given the string wn[?|0..3f], some legal commands are wn?, wn0, wn3
and wna. Most commands which set a parameter also have a ? option which causes
the modem to respond with the current parameter setting, e.g., wn? When using the
WinCom window to enter these commands, the syntax must be followed as described.
Each modem command must be followed by either a carriage return or a line feed.
When these commands are entered from the main or advanced Wizard screen, the
Wizard will insure the proper syntax is used.

Enable Global Network Mode
For networks with multiple base stations, remotes are ordinarily only able to link to
one base station, set by the hopping pattern. Mode 1 enables the global mode that
allows remotes to link to any base station they can hear, acquiring whatever hop
pattern is required. In this mode a remote can only change base stations once it is no
longer registered with a base station.
Set Hopping Pattern
The HopNet has 64 preprogrammed hopping patterns (also referred to as network
numbers). By using different hopping patterns, nearby or co-located networks can
avoid interfering with each other’s transmissions. Even if both networks tried to use
the same frequency, on the next hop they would be on different frequencies.
Set Transmit Power
The HopNet has two preset transmit power levels, 10mW (10dBm) and 100mW
(20dBm). Control of the transmit power is provided through this command. Default
is 100mW.
Read Receive Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)
This command reports the relative signal strength averaged over the last 10 hops.
This command returns a one byte value that is proportional to received signal strength
and can range from 00H to FFH. Typical values range from 30H to 80H where the
lower the number the lower the received signal strength and the higher the number the
higher the received signal strength. This is a relative indication and does not directly
correspond to a field strength number. This is available only at the remotes as the
base station is the only source that transmits on a regular basis. Plus, in a point-tomultipoint network the base will receive different signal strengths from each remote.
Set Point-to-Point Direct Mode
Sets point-to-point mode that is recommended for point-to-point applications, especially
where the remote radio is mobile and may leave and re-enter the range of the base. This
mode fixes the remote handle assignment to always be 30H and improves the reregistration process. Must be set in both base and remote radios.

Set Range Optimization
This command applies an adjustment factor to the over-the-air timing of remotes to
compensate for the effects of propagation delay at long ranges. The default setting of
00H is suitable for ranges of 0 to 0.8 miles (1287 m), with optimal performance at 0.1
miles (162m). Each increment of this parameter adds 0.1 miles (162 m) to the
working range. Thus the optimal and max ranges are determined by:
optimal = 0.1mi + 0.1mi x dx = 0.17km + 0.17km x dx
max = 0.8mi + 0.1mi x dx = 1.33km = 0.17km x dx

Set Alternative Frequency Band
When set to 1, limits the operating RF channel set to the 2448 to 2473MHz
frequency band for compliance with French regulatory standards. When set to 2, sets
appropriate operation for Spain. When set to 3, sets appropriate operation for Japan.
This setting should be set to 0, for FCC-compliant operation in the US (this is the
default). For Canadian operation, set this parameter to 4.
Set Hop Duration
Sets the length of time the transceiver spends on each frequency channel. A smaller
value will allow the remote to lock on to the base signal faster at system startup, and
will generally decrease packet latency. A larger value increases network capacity,
due to decreased overhead in channel switching. The hop duration is specified in
69.4µs increments. The default value of 90H corresponds to a duration of 10ms. The
maximum value of FEH is 17.627ms. For best results, do not specify a duration of
less than 3 ms. This value only needs to be set in the base which broadcasts the
parameter to all remotes. However, link time can be reduced if this value is also
programmed into the remotes, which use it as a starting value when scanning for the
base.
Set Minimum Data Length
This sets the minimum threshold number of bytes required to form a packet in
transparent mode. The radio will wait until the data transmit delay elapses before
sending a data packet with less than this number of bytes. Can be used to keep short,
intermittent transmissions contiguous. In packet modes, the length parameter in the
data packet will override this value (See Section 3.1). This value is subject to the
maximum data length even in packet mode. See Get Maximum Data Length below.
Get Maximum Data Length (read only)
This parameter indicates the largest number of bytes that a remote will transmit per
hop, based on the size of the slot it has been allocated by the base. In general more
remotes mean less data can be transmitted per remote. By reading this parameter and
dividing by the hop duration, the remote's data rate capacity can be determined.
Attempting to send protocol mode packets longer than maximum data length will
result in the packet being discarded without being sent. See Section 2.3.3 on the
tradeoffs between hop duration and data length.
Set Maximum Number of Remotes (base only)
This parameter limits the number of remotes that can register with a given base. The
default is 62 remotes which is the maximum number of remotes that can be registered
with a base at one time. This command is useful when used in conjunction with
global roaming for load balancing when base stations are collocated. It is also useful
to assure a minimum remote throughput.

HN210
Set Packet Attempts Limit
If ARQ Mode is set to 0, sets the number of times the radio will attempt to send an
unsuccessful transmission before discarding it. If ARQ Mode is set to 1, it is the
number of times every transmission will be sent, regardless of success or failure of a
given attempt. When this parameter is set to FFH, RF flow control mode is entered
for transmissions from the radio (See Section 2.3.4). This mode can be entered for
one or both radios in a point-to-point system. Using this mode in a point-to-multipoint
system will stop transmissions to all radios when any one radio has a full buffer.
Set Data Transmit Delay
When used in conjunction with the minimum data length parameter, this sets the
amount of time from the receipt of a first byte of data from the host until the radio
will transmit in transparent mode. Default is 00H which causes transmission to occur
without any delay. When a host is sending a group of data that needs to be sent
together, setting this parameter will provide time for the group of data to be sent by
the host before the radio transmits. If the length of data to be sent together is longer
than the time slot can send, the data will not be sent together but will be broken up
over multiple hops. The length of time the radio will wait is equal to the specified
value times the hop duration.
Set Slot Assignment Mode (base station only)
Sets whether the base station will assign remote transmit slots dynamically, based on
the number of remotes currently registered or whether the base station will assign
remote transmit slots statically, based on the maximum number of remotes parameter.
If static slot assignment is selected, make sure maximum number of remotes is
correctly set. Otherwise remote transmit performance will suffer as transmit time will
be reserved for remotes that may not exist. The dynamic assignment mode will
generally be preferred; however, the static assignment mode will result in a static
maximum data length parameter.
Set Base Slot Size (base station only)
Sets the amount of time allocated for transmission on each hop for the base station
time slot in 69.4µs increments, corresponding to 4 bytes per unit. Maximum value is
34H which corresponds to 208 bytes. If using a protocol mode, attempting to send a
packet with a length longer than this setting will cause the packet to be discarded.
Set ARQ Mode
Sets ARQ mode when set to 0 which is the default. In this mode the radio will resend
an unsuccessful transmission until either successful or packet attempt limit attempts
have been made. When set to 1 selects redundant transmit mode that will send every
transmission packet attempt limit times regardless of success or failure of any given
attempt. When redundant transmit mode is used, receiving radios will discard all
subsequent retransmissions once the transmission has been successfully received.
Thus the receiving host will receive just one copy of the transmission.

Set Escape Sequence Mode
Enables or disables the ability to use the in-data-stream escape sequence method of
accessing Control Mode by transmitting the string ":wit2410". When this mode is set
to 1, the escape sequence only works immediately after reset (this is the default).
When set to 2, the escape sequence may be used at any time in the data stream when
preceded by a pause of 20 ms. For backwards compatibility with the WIT2400, the
string ":wit2400" is also accepted for entering Control Mode. Note that the escape
sequence must be interpreted as data by the radio until the last character is received,
and as such will be transmitted to a receiving radio station.

Read Factory Serial Number High, Middle and Low Bytes.
These read only commands return one of the three bytes of the unique factory-set
serial number, which are also visible in the startup banner.
Set Duty Cycle
Allows reduced power consumption by having a remote wake up only every 2N hops
to receive and transmit. Power consumption is roughly proportional to the duty cycle
selected. For example, if N=2, the remote will wake up every fourth hop. Power
consumption will be roughly ¼ the consumption as when N=0. This parameter must
be set to the appropriate value when more than 16 remotes are in use.
Enable Low Power Acquisition Mode
When a remote is searching for a base to acquire and register with, it scans the
frequency band very rapidly. This mode consumes about 80mA of current during this
mode. To reduce the frequency consumption when a remote is in acquisition mode, a
low power acquisition mode is provided. In this mode, the remote only scans the
frequency band every other hop. This will reduce the average current consumption
during acquisition to about 40mA. The tradeoff is it can take twice as long to acquire
and register with a base, or up to 4 seconds.

Troubleshooting
Overview
Introduction
Troubleshooting the HopNet products is not difficult, but it does require a logical
approach. It is best to begin troubleshooting at the base station because the rest of the
system synchronizes to it. If the base station has problems, the entire network will be
compromised.
This chapter provides troubleshooting information for your HopNet products.
Transceiver Requirements
For proper operation, all transceivers in the network must meet these basic
requirements:
Adequate and stable power
Secure connections (Power, RF, and Data)
Proper programming especially Hop Duration and Network Address

Common System Problems
The following table offers suggestions for resolving some common system problems
that the operator may experience from the radio system. If problems persist, contact
the factory for further assistance.
Problem
System Checks
Unit is inoperative
1. Check for proper DC voltage at the power
connector.
2. Momentarily remove and reapply power.
No Carrier Detect at
remote units or
intermittent
1. Check for secure interface connections at the
transceiver.
2. Check antenna, feedline, connectors, and reflective
power.
3. If remote unit is in synchronization but
performance is poor, it may indicate antenna
problems. Check for properly aligned antenna
headings.
4. Verify proper programming of the system
parameters.
Interference is
suspected
1. Verify that the system has a unique network
address. Nearby systems with same address will
cause interference problems.
2. If Omni-directional antennas are used with the
remote units, consider using a directional type
instead. This will often limit interference to and
from other stations.
3. Check RSSI value at the remote. A low value
would correspond to a weak signal strength.

Guidelines for Reducing Interference
Introduction
The transceivers share the same frequency spectrum with other services and other
Part 15 devices in the US. Because of this, you may not achieve 100 percent error free
communications in a given location. You should also expect some level of
interference. However, the flexible design of the radio and the hopping pattern should
allow for adequate performance as long as care is taken in choosing station location,
configuration parameters of the transceivers, and protocols techniques.
Use the following guidelines to reduce interference in your HopNet system.
Guidelines for Setting Up the Network
In general, the following points should be followed when setting up a network:
Systems installed in rural areas are least likely to encounter interference.
If possible, use directional antennas at remote sites. The directional antennas confine
the transmission path and reception pattern to a comparatively narrow lobe, which
minimizes interference from stations located outside the pattern.
Multiple HopNet systems can co-exist in close proximity to each other with very
minor interface as long as they are assigned a unique network address. Each network
address has a different hop pattern.
If interference is suspected from a similar operating system, change the antenna
polarization. This will provide an additional 20dB of attenuation to interference.
For indoor applications, set all transceivers for the lowest level necessary for reliable
communications. This lessens the chance of interference from nearby systems.
Guidelines for Selecting Your Site
Use these guidelines to select a proper site for the master remote stations. Suitable
sites must provide the following:
An adequate and stable source of primary power.
Antenna location that provides an unobstructed transmission path in the direction of
the associated units.
Proper antenna selection, data access, and feedline cabling
A clear line-of-sight. Microwave radio signals travel primarily by line-of-sight, and
obstructions between the sending and receiving stations will affect system
performance.

HN210
Guidelines for Avoiding Terrain Obstructions
The HopNet transceivers operate in the 2.4 GHz frequency band. While this band
offers many advantages over the VHF band for data transmission, it is also more
prone to signal attenuation from obstructions such as terrain, foliage, buildings and
anything else in the transmission path.
Use the following guidelines to avoid terrain obstructions:
A line-of-sight transmission path between the base and the associated remote sites
provides for the most reliable transmission path.
A line-of-sight path can be achieved by mounting the station antenna on a tower or
elevated structure that raises it to a sufficient level to clear surrounding terrain and
other obstructions.
The importance of a clear transmission path relates closely to the distance to be
covered. If the system is to cover only a limited geographical area such as 1-3 miles,
then some obstructions may be tolerated with minimal impact.
For longer-range systems, any substantial obstruction in the transmission path could
compromise the performance of the system.
