INTRODUCTION
The Niles RFG Radio Frequency Gateway is a highly flexible tool that allows system
designers to add a ZigBee
®
radio transmitter/receiver to Niles MultiZone products or extend
the Radio Frequency Receiver of a Niles HT-MSU Home Theater Main System Unit.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
MULTI-MODE SET-UP DIPSWITCHES
The RFG has two dipswitches that are set to choose one of the four operation modes:
Master Base, Repeater Base, Wireless Keypad and Not Assigned. The mode is determined
by the system design.
INSTALLATION FLEXIBILITY
With a low profile design, easy access connections, and wall-mount hole wings, the RFG can
be wall mounted behind system components or attached to a baseboard. The high-impact
plastic housing is heat resistant, so the RFG can also be mounted in an attic to a crossbeam.
System and Keypad connections allows multiple RFGs to be cascade-wired over a single
CAT-5 wire run.
RELIABLE ZIGBEE RF COMMUNICATION
The RFG uses a reliable ZigBee based 2.4 Gigahertz radio frequency that works well even in
“noisy” RF environments. The RFG has a 16-channel
and 16-network ID capability that allows
multiple RFGs to be used near each other and in multiple-dwelling units like condos.
RFG EX Model has 10 channels.
