- BWA-UCT-900 supplies power for one Gateway or one MultiHop Radio operating at 1 Watt
- • Supports baud rates of 9600, 19200, and 38400 • Converts USB to RS-485 (2-wire) with a M12 connector • Supports Windows XP and Vista • Download the User Configuration Software, MultiHop Configuration Software, or Sensor Configuration Software free from Banner Engineering's Wireless I/O Products website
- • Includes cordset MQDMC-401 for use with the DX80...C models
Do not use BWA-HW-006 to connect a Performance Gateway or MultiHop Radio operating in 1-Watt mode. Always configure the Performance and MultiHop models to operate in 250 mW mode before connecting them to your computer to avoid damaging your USB port.
To supply power to 1 Watt radios during configuration, use cable BWA-UCT-900 .
When plugging this cable into your computer for the first time, give the cable 1 to 2 minutes to check your computer for the proper driver, download the driver, then install it. Plug the cable into your Gateway; the cable should supply enough power to the Gateway to configure it.
