CONFIGUARTION / INSTALLATION
Operating Temperature : -10°C to +65°C.
The TBOS Radio Relay can be used in 2 configurations:
- To increase radio range between TBOS-II Field Transmitter and standalone TBOS™
or TBOS-II™ Control Modules equipped with a TBOS-II™ Radio Adaptor (even with no
Central Control System)
- To build a radio network centralized on IQ V2 Software. A TBOS-IQ Radio Network
consists in one IQ-TBOS Master Radio Module installed in an ESP-LX Series Controller
and one or several TBOS Radio Relay relaying information on the field to TBOS
Controllers.
The TBOS Radio Relay has to be installed in height position to optimize radio range (Please see
Installation Chapter of this Manual).
To install TBOS Radio Relay, you will need your TBOS-IIField Transmitter. Please see its User
Manual to proceed with the following steps.
Each TBOS Radio Relay allows:
- Radio communication with up to 15 other radio relays.
- Radio communication with up to 32 TBOS™ or TBOS-II™ controllers equipped with
TBOS-II Radio Adaptor.

INITIAL START-UP

Radio Marking
We recommend proceeding to Radio Marking before installation of the relay in height
position, in order to be able to communicate with the relay.
Radio marking is a key step during installation of a radio device.
To be able to communicate via radio, all radio devices (Field Transmitter, Radio Adaptor,
Master Radio Module and TBOS Radio Relay) must have the same Radio Network Number. The
Radio Network Number is a 4-digit code transmits to any radio device by the TBOS-II™ Field
Transmitter during its Radio Marking. The Radio Network Number secures your network by
limiting risk of interferences with other IQ-TBOS networks.
The Radio Marking is done in 3 simple steps:
- On the Field Transmitter, go on Radio Marking screen (TBOS Radio Menu / Radio
Marking)
- On TBOS Radio Relay, activate the initialization trigger to place the relay in "waiting"
mode – During 20 seconds the relay is waiting fro its Radio Network Number.
- Validated by pressing OK on the Field Transmitter within the 20 seconds.
Radio Marking is only done once, at first installation.
When all radio devices are marked with a common Radio Network Number, network building
could be launched from IQ software.
