LT Series Transceiver 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 5 Typical Performance Graphs regulatory certification and warranty. 9 PIN Assignments Customers may use our (non-Function) Modules, Antenna and 9 Pin Descriptions Connectors as part of other systems in Life Safety Situations, but 10 Module Description only with necessary and industry appropriate redundancies and 10 Theory of Operation in compliance with applicable safety standards, including without limitation, ANSI and NFPA standards. It is solely the responsibility 12 Using LADJ of any Linx customer who uses one or more of these products to 12 Using the RSSI Line incorporate appropriate redundancies and safety standards for the Life and Property Safety Situation application. 13 Using the PDN Line 13 ESD Concerns 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/ 14 Using the Data Line decoder to validate the data. Without validation, any signal from 15 Power Supply Requirements another unrelated transmitter in the environment received by the 16 Transferring Data module could inadvertently trigger the action. 17 Typical Applications All RF products are susceptible to RF interference that can prevent 18 Antenna Considerations communication. RF products without frequency agility or hopping implemented are more subject to interference. This module does not 19 Helpful Application Notes from Linx have a frequency hopping protocol built in. 19 Protocol Guidelines Do not use any Linx product over the limits in this data guide. 20 Interference Considerations Excessive voltage or extended operation at the maximum voltage could 21 Pad Layout cause product failure. Exceeding the reflow temperature profile could 21 Board Layout Guidelines cause product failure which is not immediately evident. 23 Microstrip Details Do not make any physical or electrical modifications to any Linx 24 Production Guidelines product. This will void the warranty and regulatory and UL certifications and may cause product failure which is not immediately evident. 24 Hand Assembly 24 Automated Assembly
