| The
CVR1 receiver modules offers a low cost, reliable
data link in a Radiometrix BiM standard pin out
and footprint. CVR1 is availble in 173.225MHz frequency
as standard. CVR1 is compatible with the Radiometrix
TX1 and BiM1T transmitters. |

Features
- Conforms to EN 300 220-3 and EN
301 489-3
- Standard frequency 173.225MHz
- Other frequencies from 120MHz
to 180MHz
- Data rates up to 10kbps for standard
module
- Feature-rich interface (RSSI,
analogue and digital baseband)
- Low current consumption
- Low battery life
|
| CVR1 is the cut down version of standard
BiM1R receiver and lacks internal supply regulator and
screening. Although CVR1 is made available for low end
wireless applications where the cost is also a concern,
its RF performance is not compromised. |
|
Applications
- Solar powered remote installation
- Data loggers
- Industrial telemetry and telecommand
- In-building environmental monitoring and control
- Security and fire alarms
