1. INTRODUCTION
The WIT2492 radio transceiver provides reliable wireless connectivity for either
point-to-point or multipoint applications. Frequency hopping spread spectrum
technology ensures maximum resistance to noise and multipath fading and robustness in
the presence of interfering signals, while operation in the 2.4GHz ISM band allows
license-free use and worldwide compliance. A simple serial interface supports
asynchronous data up to 921600 bps. An on-board 3 KB buffer and an error-correcting
over-the-air protocol provide smooth data flow and simplify the task of integration with
existing applications.
- Multipath fading impervious
frequency hopping technology
with 43 frequency channels
(2401-2475 MHz).
- Supports point-to-point or
multipoint applications.

300.328 for worldwide licensefree operation.
- Superior range to 802.11 wireless
LAN devices.
- Transparent ARQ protocol
w/3KB buffer ensures data
integrity.
- Built-in data scrambling reduces
possibility of eavesdropping.
- Nonvolatile memory stores
configuration when powered
off.
- Smart power management
features for low current
consumption.
- Dynamic TDMA slot
assignment that maximizes
throughput.
- Digital addressing supports up to
64 networks, with 62 remotes per
network.
- Low power 3.3v CMOS signals
- Simple serial interface handles both
data and control at up to 921600 bps.

t
Electrical connection to the WIT2492 is made
through a 16-pin male header on the modem
module. The signals are 3.3 volt signals and form
an RS-232 style asynchronous serial interface.
The table below provides the connector pinout.
Pin Signal Type Description
1 GND - Signal and chassis ground

Normally, CFG will be set for Data Mode. An internal 10K pull-up enables
Data Mode if this signal is left unconnected. Control Mode is also
accessible by transmitting an escape sequence immediately after wake

configuration settings are refreshed from non-volatile memory, clearing
any temporary settings that may have been set.

WIT2492M/S4
OEM Pinout
The HN-510 is wired as a DCE device and as such can be connected to DTE devices such
as PCs with a straight-through cable. When connecting a HN-510 to a DTE device, a
“null modem” cable is required. To effect a null modem cable, cross-wire TXD and
RXD and connect ground. The HN-510 can operate with just these three wires
connected. However, as the WIT2492 does not support software flow control, there will
be no flow control in this mode. If the DTE device fails to respond, connect DCD from
the HN-510 to the DTR and RTS inputs to activate the DCE device whenever the
WIT2492 asserts carrier.
When connecting to the WIT2492M/S4, make sure that all of the inputs (TXD, CFG,
RTS and SLEEP) are terminated for proper operation.
9.3. Approved Antennas
The WIT2492M/S4 is designed to ensure that no antenna other than the one fitted shall
be used with the device. The end user must permanently affix the antenna by using an
adhesive on the coupling such as Loctite, or ensure the antenna has a unique coupling.
The table below lists the antennas which can be purchased directly from Cirronet.
