PRODUCT INFORMATION
ZP8D-24RM-LR
Industrial Long Range 868 MHz Radio Modem
9 RS-232/422/485 Wire Replacement
9 Serial Data Rates up to 230.4 Kbps
9 Modbus ASCII/RTU
9 Long Range
9 Adjustable Transmitter Power
9 Wide Operating Temperature
9 10 – 48 VDC or 18 – 30 VAC Operation
Ideally suited for applications in which running
cable is either to expensive or not practical. If you
need to get a serial signal across a river, highway,
or just to the other end of your warehouse Zlinx ™
Radio Modems can do the job easier, faster, and
less expensive than running cable. Easy plug-andplay setup saves installation time. Since they are
Modbus compatible, no external converters are
required.
Setting up and programming the modem is easy
with the Zlinx™ Manager software. The software
covers everything from basic to advanced settings
