Advanced Performance

The TS4000 is a high performance radio modem supporting over the air data rates up to 19,200 bits per second. Its advanced data processing architecture allows high data throughput even on narrow 12.5, 7.5 and 6.25 kHz channels.

The TS4000 incorporates a wide range of high performance radio modules which meet the stringent demands of both domestic and international regulatory agencies. Advanced features including address selective store-and-forward data repeating, multilevel packet management, remote system adjustment and network wide diagnostics makes the TS4000 the new benchmark for next generation radio modems.

Key Features

High speed channel rates in excess of 19,200 bits per second
Selectable operating modes for transparent and packet data operation
Addressed communications for devices not directly addressable
Store-and-forward data repeating for wide area coverage
Two individually configurable data ports
Supports data activation (three wire) and RTS/CTS handshake protocols
Powerful network diagnostics for non-intrusive monitoring of all radio and data network functions
Built-in bit error rate (BER) monitoring
Configurable RF output power levels
Programmable receive sensitivity level (squelch) for use on noisy channels
Watertight case option for field work and marine installations
Clear Channel Scan - The TS4000 can be configured to automatically select the best channel for communication.
Automatic CW Station ID - The TS4000 can be configured to periodically transmit a Morse code station ID.

Flexible Data Interface

Two highly configurable user data serial ports.
Primary port supports connection to virtually any asynchronous user device.
Secondary port used as diagnostics port, synchronous port, or separately addressable packet data port.
Full Handshake and Data Activation modes supported on both ports.
Data Activation mode requires only receive and transmit data lines for full communications with user device.
Data rates from 300 to 19,200 baud.
RS-232, RS-485 or TTL signal levels.

Integrated RF Transceiver

Synthesized transceivers cover VHF, UHF, and 900 MHz bands.
Programmable RF output power levels.
Channel frequencies, stored in internal flash memory, are selectable on the fly using simple ASCII command strings.

Selectable Channel Protocols

User selectable scrambling codes for private network communications.
Optional error correction block coding (FEC) with bit interleaving to correct channel induced data errors.
User selectable transparent or AirNet packet data transfer modes.

Integrated AirNet Packet Data Protocol

Allows user directed transmissions to only selected destinations.
Provides addressed communications for devices that are not directly addressable themselves.
Can be optimized for point to point, point to multipoint, and full mesh networks.
Supports group and all-call broadcast transmissions.
Built-in CSMA/CA algorithm minimizes transmission collisions to maximize channel efficiency and utilization.
Individual TS4000s can be configured as store-and-forward data repeaters to extend radio network coverage.

PC Configurable

Windows based configuration software provides quick setup and testing of TS4000 radio modems and networks.
Flash memory program storage allows easy in-field firmware upgrades.
AirTest is included with the TS4000 configuration program. AirTest is a general purpose wireless modem test program that can be used to verify operation and to gather performance statistics (BER) about the link between modems.
The TS4000 configuration program comes with AirScan that enables the TS4000 to be used as a frequency scanner.

Industrial data collection Rugged and Reliable

Optional watertight housing and connections designed to withstand abuse from field and marine use.
External interfaces protected against voltage transients, reversed polarity, electrical shorts and high VSWR.
Two year no nonsense warranty.
Free technical support provided during all phases of installation and use.

This product is available for domestic and international sale. For domestic sale, some frequency bands cannot be approved by the Federal Communications Commission. Therefore, some devices are not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased within the United States and its territories.
