Description
The Designer Systems DS-FWCM is a highly integrated fast wireless communications module which allows the formation of a bi-directional wireless network capable of transferring data over a distance of up to 300* metres. Specifically targeted at the OOPic (II) & OOPic-R embedded control module and the Personal Computer user the FWCM features I2C and RS232 communication. Communication between FWCMs' is through self assigned node addresses with a maximum network consisting of 255 FWCM nodes. Data is transferred by simply writing a value (Nine (9) values in expanded data mode) and a destination node to the local FWCM and waiting for confirmation that the data has been sent successfully. The FWCM handles all the error correction, anti-collision and data confirmation protocol necessary for error free transfer. In addition the DS-FWCM features an on-board fully configurable eight line IO port and a four line analogue input port with automatic measurement. These ports are fully controllable over the wireless network without the intervention of the connected OOPic (II) etc. For robotic and control applications the remote DS-FWCM can also be configured for autonomous mode. This mode allows eight servos to be controlled remotely without the need for an additional OOPic (II) etc. Four sensors can also be connected to the ADC inputs to allow the monitoring of distance, light, temperature etc
