- [W-MBUS] “We are interested in using Radiocrafts modules in our product. We need to install around 150+ sensors per house which are connected to one concentrator (master) device. Sensor are small and therefore using external antenna is not an option which may be problematic when using 169MHz? Those sensors are installed into houses with concrete walls and range requirements are therefore at least 150+ meters in NLOS situations. We are considering to use Wireless M-BUS protocol or some similar which do not require acknowledgements from the sensor. We prefer sub 1-GHz radio because of coverage. Could you suggest some of your modules which support 150+ slaves in one network and extended range at least 150+ meters in urban area? Please also take into account our antenna limitations. “
- [W-MBUS] “What happens with frames, that are received while transmitting another frame? If I understand this correctly the module returns to idle state after the frame is sent to the uart. That means, if a frame is sent, while the module is not in idle mode, it can’t recognize the second frame. Right? “
- [W-MBUS] “So, does this USB stick and the PC software come with open software so we really understand what happens between the PC and the USB (RC1180-MBUS3). Which we can use to make our own implementation in our Gateway? “
