MT Series Transcoder Module Data Guide Warning: Some customers may want Linx radio frequency (RF) Table of Contents products to control machinery or devices remotely, including machinery or devices that can cause death, bodily injuries, and/or property 1 Description damage if improperly or inadvertently triggered, particularly in industrial settings or other applications implicating life-safety concerns (Life and 1 Features Property Safety Situations). 1 Applications 2 Ordering Information NO OEM LINX REMOTE CONTROL OR FUNCTION MODULE SHOULD EVER BE USED IN LIFE AND PROPERTY SAFETY 2 Absolute Maximum Ratings SITUATIONS. No OEM Linx Remote Control or Function Module 3 Electrical Specifications should be modified for Life and Property Safety Situations. Such modification cannot provide sufficient safety and will void the products 4 Pin Assignments regulatory certification and warranty. 4 Pin Descriptions Customers may use our (non-Function) Modules, Antenna and 6 Overview Connectors as part of other systems in Life Safety Situations, but 7 Transceiver Power Control only with necessary and industry appropriate redundancies and 8 Transcoder Operation in compliance with applicable safety standards, including without limitation, ANSI and NFPA standards. It is solely the responsibility of any 9 Mode Entry Linx customer who uses one or more of these products to incorporate 10 Create Mode appropriate redundancies and safety standards for the Life and Property Safety Situation application. 10 Learn Mode 11 Transmit Mode Do not use this or any Linx product to trigger an action directly from the data line or RSSI lines without a protocol or encoder/ 12 Receive Mode decoder to validate the data. Without validation, any signal from 12 TX ID another unrelated transmitter in the environment received by the module 13 LATCH Mode could inadvertently trigger the action. 13 Targeted Device Addressing All RF products are susceptible to RF interference that can prevent 14 Custom Data Transmission communication. RF products without frequency agility or hopping implemented are more subject to interference. This module does not 14 Mode Entry Timings have a frequency hopping protocol built in. 16 Serial Output Do not use any Linx product over the limits in this data guide. 17 Serial Mode Excessive voltage or extended operation at the maximum voltage could 21 Serial Interface Command Set Definitions cause product failure. Exceeding the reflow temperature profile could 22 Serial Interface Connections cause product failure which is not immediately evident. 26 Transcoder MODE IND Definitions Do not make any physical or electrical modifications to any Linx 27 Legal Considerations product. This will void the warranty and regulatory and UL certifications and may cause product failure which is not immediately evident. 27 Helpful Application Notes From Linx 28 Typical Applications
