Cirronet to Showcase New Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum Devices for Industrial / Manufacturing M2M Applications at ISA EXPO 2007.ATLANTA -- Cirronet, Inc. (a subsidiary of RF Monolithics, Inc. announces its exhibit at the ISA (1) (Instruction Set Architecture) See instruction set. (2) (Interactive Services Association) See Internet Alliance. (3) (Internet Security and Acceleration) See .NET. EXPO 2007 in Houston, TX, October 2-4, 2007, at the Reliant Center Reliant Center is a convention center in Houston, Texas, part of the Reliant Park complex that was constructed around the Astrodome Reliant Stadium. Reliant Center hosts various events year-round, including portions of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, who maintains its offices in booth #1707. The exhibit will showcase the new Cirronet wireless HopNet I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output (HNIO) modems featuring bidirectional The ability to move, transfer or transmit in both directions. transmission and the company's patented frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) See spread spectrum. ) technology. The company will also be exhibiting the complete Cirronet line of standalone products and embeddable OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and modules for M2M M2M Machine-to-Machine (communication, mainly mobile) M2M Minutes to Midnight (Linkin Park album) M2M Mobile to Mobile (cellular phone) M2M Member-to-Member M2M Month to Month applications including Cirronet ZigBee[TM] modules and gateways, 802.15.4 modules, proprietary mesh modules, proprietary frequency hopping modules, serial modems, and Ethernet bridges, Bluetooth[TM] modules and industrial 802.11 modules and modems. Improved calibration and analog accuracy make the new HNIO-091 (900MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. ) and HNIO-241 (2.4GHz) ideal for industrial and manufacturing M2M applications requiring round-trip loop accuracies of better than 1%. The HNIO-091 and HNIO-241 are available with a selection of 4-20mA and relay contact combinations to enable remote analog sensor readings and remote actuations. Versions are available with integral radios as well as with remote radios in NEMA NEMA National Electrical Manufacturers Association NEMA National Emergency Management Agency NEMA National Emergency Management Association NEMA Nottingham East Midlands Airport (UK) 4X enclosures allowing for outdoor use. Their line of sight range extends beyond 20 miles and support multi-point networks. Manufacturing engineers and system integrators look to the popular Cirronet HNIO family of products to replace long analog sensor and relay actuator cables, and achieve cost savings from cable removal and their attendant maintenance costs. All HNIOs operate over an input voltage range of +9Vdc to +30Vdc, making them suitable for standard industrial and solar power sources. Class I Div 2 certification allows the modems to be deployed in hazardous locations. All are DIN-rail mountable. Cirronet will also participate in the ISA100 standards committee, "Wireless Systems for Automation," multi-vendor technology demonstration of a wide range of wireless instrumentation and applications based on existing wireless technologies. ISA, founded in 1945, is a leading, global, nonprofit organization Nonprofit Organization An association that is given tax-free status. Donations to a non-profit organization are often tax deductible as well. Notes: Examples of non-profit organizations are charities, hospitals and schools. that is setting the standard for automation by helping over 30,000 worldwide members and other professionals solve difficult technical problems, while enhancing their leadership and personal career capabilities. Based in Research Triangle Park Research Triangle Park, research, business, medical, and educational complex situated in central North Carolina. It has an area of 6,900 acres (2,795 hectares) and is 8 × 2 mi (13 × 3 km) in size. Named for the triangle formed by Duke Univ. , North Carolina North Carolina, state in the SE United States. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean (E), South Carolina and Georgia (S), Tennessee (W), and Virginia (N). Facts and Figures Area, 52,586 sq mi (136,198 sq km). Pop. , ISA develops standards; certifies industry professionals; provides education and training; publishes books and technical articles; and hosts the largest conference and exhibition for automation professionals in the Western Hemisphere. ISA is the founding sponsor of The Automation Federation. The ISA100 standard is being created as a family of standards, designed to support many applications and many protocols through a single, integrated wireless network. The committee's work will also ensure co-existence with other standards operating in the 2.4GHz ISM band. The standard will use a single application layer, providing both native and tunneling protocol capability for broad usability. This will help users protect their installed base investment by adding wireless adapters to existing devices while facilitating an evolutionary transition of their field devices to embedded ISA100.11a wireless. Over 250 companies and organizations, representing end-users, vendors, integrators, universities, and research labs, are actively involved in the open development of the ISA100 family of standards.
