Flex-Sky-Link-RS485 Wireless Data Receiver
The Flex-Sky-Link-RS485 serves as a data receiver designed for Nokeval Ovasky’s 433 MHz wireless data transmission technology. Its primary function is to receive and store the data packets transmitted by Ovasky transmitters.
Housed within a rugged and watertight (IP 66) plastic enclosure, it’s further protected by two rubber O-rings sealing the joint between modules. The receiver operates on an 8 to 30 VDC power supply and connects to a computer or PLC through RS-485.
Data transmission between the receiver and the computer is facilitated using the Nokeval SCL or Modbus RTU protocol. The Flex-Sky-Link-RS485 is equipped with a single diagnostic LED for status indication.
