IC/MT-210AME Network Controller
Technical Specifications


IC-15 Radio Modem

Accurate real-time data transmission for up to 99 remote data terminals is provided by one IC-210AME wireless Network Controller. Data for each remote unit is individually buffered to provide flawless information between the central unit and all the remotes. With exceptional 1 mile line of sight coverage, this reliable unit is easy to set up, operate, and maintain.

Operating Information

Data is transferred synchronously over the radio link at 2400 or 4800 bps (depending upon model). Communication is over a single channel, so throughput depends on the length and frequency of messages for each remote unit. the PAD (Packet Assembly and Disassembly) interface provides full access to multiple portable units via the asynchronous RS-232 port, and the profile is configurable to match different types of terminal equipment. For a more complete description see
Modem operation is Full Duplex, baud rates up to 19200.
Hardware flow control (DTE RDY/DTE CTS).
Software control (XON/XOFF).
Data format 7 or 8 bits, 1 or 2 stop bits - odd, even, mark, spade, or no parity.
Interface is X.3 PAD (Packet Assembly and Disassembly) or Multidrop.
