vWire Wireless Board with Board Wire Antenna

The vWire board is a low power wireless data acquisition and control board that operates in two major modes, I/O Line Passing mode and Network API mode.

I/O Line Passing mode allows up to eleven wireless virtual cable connections to be established between two or more vWire boards.  Analog or digital/switch signal inputs on one board are wirelessly transmitted to another vWire board where they are reproduced as identical analog or digital/switch signals. Additionally, an RS232 signal input on one board is received as an RS232 output signal on the remote board allowing transparent RS232 virtual cable operation.

Network API mode allows up to 65533 vWire boards to be connected in a peer-to-peer network allowing remote analog and digital data monitoring and control of hundreds of thousands of nodes over the entire network. Up to 12 separate networks can be established in the same area. 

Analog and digital inputs on any vWire board in the network can be retrieved through any other vWire board in the network.  Similarly, an analog or digital output can be forced on any vWire board in the network through any other vWire board in the network. 

An easy to use configuration utility is provided to set up an application in minutes. Default configuration files show both Line passing and Network API setups.
