Our TechnologyCrouse-Hinds's technology includes Industrial Wireless I/O, Gateway, and Serial products and uses license-free & licensed radio bands.
Our Wireless / Radio Telemetry products are fully integrated, easy to use, easy to configure and highly reliable.
Our design philosophy utilises the following features:
Our products use transceivers (radio transmitters/receivers) and communicate with each other to control the flow of information. We use radio bands which are particularly advantageous for instrumentation applications; where high data rates are not required and where good penetration radio performance is a significant operating benefit.
We use frequency bands which offer superior radio signal penetration.
Our radio protocols include security data encryption, multiple addressing levels, error checking, and handshaking re-try mechanisms. Because we utilize radio transceivers, our wireless products are able to listen and check the radio channel before transmitting.
The Crouse-Hinds WIB™-net (Wireless Information Backbone) offers a plant wide wireless network (WIB™-net) for connecting instrumentation and control signals. The WIB™-net utilizes Crouse-Hinds's field-proven license-free radios. Our products are designed for both unit expandability along with network expandability. Wireless I/O units can increase functionality and extend networking capabilities using easily configured serial expansion modules. Our radio transmissions include system addressing as well as unit addressing as double-security against accidental "cross-talk". Our error checking, handshaking and re-try features provide a very high degree of protection against transmission failure - and if there is communications failure, we provide multiple levels of alarm.
