HN210
Introduction
The HopNet 10 Series family of products provides reliable wireless connectivity for
either point-to-point or point-to-multipoint applications. HopNet products are built
around the WIT2410 radio transceiver, which employs frequency hopping spread
spectrum technology. This technology ensures:
•Maximum resistance to noise
•Maximum resistance to multipath fading
•Robustness in the presence of interfering signals
The HN-210 and HN-210X are NEMA 4X weatherproof versions of the HopNet
product line. The HN-214, which is an HN-210 with a 4 ft. cable, is also available.
The interface to the 210 and 210X allows the Host to communicate with the Remote
unit through an integrated 50 ft (15 meter) cable. The HN-210 and 210X can act as
either bases or remotes.
The HN-210 Remote has an internally mounted 6 dBi patch antenna. The built-in
antenna of the HN-210 case greatly eases outdoor installation since no antenna
feedline cable or adapters are needed. The 6 dBi antenna gain increases the radiated
EIRP to +24 dBm and the effective receiver sensitivity to –99 dBm. The HN-210X
has a TNC connector for attaching an external antenna and a mounting kit (part no.:
HN210X-MKIT) that accommodates both the HN-210X and any of the following
external antennas:
CORNER249
CORNER2414
OMNI249
OMNI2412
HopNet Benefits
The HopNet family of products is built with rugged enclosures compliant with IP 66
and NEMA 4X standards for outdoor and harsh industrial environments. All Hopnet
products work with each other and can be mixed and matched in a single network. All
HopNet Products are WIT2410 compatible and can be used with WIT2410 OEM
based products as well as with the SNAP2410 10Base T access point.
Operating Frequency
The HopNet family operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band that allows for license-free use
and worldwide compliance.
HopNet Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum Advantages
In the frequency domain, a multipath fade can be described as a frequency selective
notch that shifts in location and depth over time. Multipath fades typically occupy
five percent of the band. A conventional radio system typically has a five percent
chance of signal impairment at any given time due to multipath fading.

HN210
Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum reduces the vulnerability of a radio system to
interference from jammers and multipath fading by distributing or spreading the
signal over a larger region of the frequency band.
The fade resistant, HopNet frequency-hopping technology employs up to 75 channels
and switches channels over 100 times a second to achieve high reliability throughput.
HopNet Data Integrity
An on-board 3 KB buffer and error correcting over-the-air protocol ensure data
integrity even in the presence of weak signals or jammers. The serial interface
handles both data and control of asynchronous data rates of up to 230 Kbps.
Flexible Power Management
The power can be set at 10 milliwatts or 100 milliwatts using the included software.
Reduced power can reduce the size of the coverage zone, which may be desirable for
multiple network indoor applications. You can also place the transceiver module in a
power-save mode, which enables smart power management. Smart power
management allows a remote unit to drop into a lower current standby mode during
transmission or receiving gaps.
This feature also allows Hopnet products to be used in various countries where the
output power requirements may vary due to regulation.
Advanced Features
HopNet modems have many advanced features:
•Employ frequency hopping technology with up to 75 channels in the 2401 to
2475 MHz frequency range
•Support digital addressing for up to 64 networks, with 62 remotes per
network.
•Use transparent ARQ protocol
•Use same hardware for all supported data rates
•Supports up to 115 Kbps asynchronous data rates
•Full Duplex operation
•Store setup configuration in nonvolatile memory (FLASH)
•Fast acquisition – less than 2 seconds is the typical time to acquire hopping
pattern
•Smart power management features

HN210
Guidelines for Installation
When installing your system, always consider the following points:
Directional antennas are best for remote unit sites. They may increase the cost, but
they confine the transmission path to a narrow lobe and minimize the interference
from nearby stations.
For systems with constant interference present, you may need to change the polarity
of the antenna system and reduce data streams. Groups of short data streams are more
reliable and have a better chance of success in the presence of interference than do
long data streams.
Systems installed in rural areas are least likely to encounter urban interference.
Multiple HopNet systems can operate in close proximity to each other but require a
unique network address.
Poor quality coaxial cables will seriously degrade system performance. Use low- loss
cable that is suitable for 2.4 GHz operation.
Short cable runs minimize signal loss.
Aiming the Antenna and Placing the Remote
Use the following guidelines for aiming the antenna and placing the Remote.
Do not place anything immediately in front of the antenna that could obstruct its
radiation pattern. Because the antenna in the HopNet Remote is inside the unit, the
antenna must have a clear line of sight.
Use the sticker on the HN-210 Remote unit to help you locate and aim the antenna.
The sticker indicates which direction the antenna is pointing.
Be sure the antenna end of the HN-210 Remote faces the Base or Repeater that it is
communicating with. Our tests have found that antenna placement is not critical as
long as the patch antenna is facing in the general direction of the other end of the link.
If possible, place the Remote unit at a higher elevation than the structures surrounding
it to increase range and link reliability. Since the Remote will operate with up to 100
feet of interconnect cable between it and the Host, you can mount the unit on top of a
building or other structure that will provide higher elevation.
Interconnect Cable
The HN-210 and HN-210X come with 50’ (15 meters) of high quality interconnect
cable. The cable may be lengthened by adding an additional 50’ cable (part no.:
CBLEXT50). The maximum cable length that the HN-210 and HN-210x will support
is 100’ (30 meters).

Configuring the Network
You can configure the HopNet network using a PC and the HopNet Configuration
Wizard software provided by Cirronet, Inc. The Wizard runs under Windows
95/98/NT/2000/XP. This chapter provides the information you need to configure your
network.
HopNet Configuration Wizard (5.0 or later)
If you haven’t already installed the Wizard program, refer to the Getting Started
section of this manual for instructions. Open the Wizard by double-clicking on the
icon on the desktop. When the Wizard boots up, it will automatically detect the serial
port to which the HopNet radio is connected and its baud rate. This process takes a
few seconds to complete. During this process, the “Please wait” screen is displayed.
Once the radio has been found and the Baudrate determined, the “Finished” screen is
displayed. Click on the Continue button to enter the Wizard.
NOTE: The HopNet configuration Wizard is used with a variety of Cirronet radios.
Not all radios support all the functions and features of every Cirronet radio. Thus,
some selections in the Wizard will be grayed out if they are not applicable to the
radio in use.
After detecting the serial port and baud rate of the HopNet radio, the Wizard reads the
settings of the HopNet radio that is connected to the PC and will display them in the
various parameter windows. In the bottom left corner of the Wizard window, the
Base/Remote status, the serial number and the communication port are always
displayed.

character gaps that are too long. Refer to the section, Modbus Operation for details on
this mode.

using different network numbers or “hopping patterns”, nearby or co-located
networks can avoid interfering with each other’s transmissions.

Also known as Set Data Rate Divisor (command sd) this parameter sets the serial bit
rate between the modem and the host.
