MODEL 5362 : Remote Station Tester
General Description:
The HydroLynx 5362 Remote Station Tester (RST) is a portable "central site" and is useful during installation,
routine maintenance, and trouble shooting of remote sites. The Remote Station Tester receives, decodes, stores,
and outputs ALERT formatted data transmissions from remote sites which allows field technicians to verify transmitter operation "on-site".
The Remote Station Tester equipment includes the 5362 RST unit, a radio scanner, an audio cable, a serial cable,
and a battery. The unit contains a field strength meter that provides an indication of the transmitter deviation.
This insures that the remote station is operational after the site is completely assembled.
The 5362 RST has two 25 pin D female RS-232 output ports. The terminal port is the 50386
Console output which uses a terminal program to monitor received data; the decoder port is ALERT formatted data
which allows the tester to be used as an emergency backup for the Model 50386R/D Receiver/Decoder at the central site.
This configuration also facilitates troubleshooting faulty equipment at the central site.
Note: The Model 5362 Remote Station Tester is battery powered and is not intended for permanent installation. |
