FCC NOTIFICATIONS
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful interference and 2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This de-
vice must be operated as supplied by FreeWave Technologies, Inc. Any changes or modifica-
tions made to the device without the express written approval of FreeWave Technologies may
void the user's authority to operate the device.
CAUTION: The model number FGR2-PE has a maximum transmitted output power of
955mW. It is recommended that the transmit antenna be kept at least 23 cm away
from nearby persons to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protec-
tion against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses,
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the in-
structions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guar-
antee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
!" Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
!" Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
!" Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
!" Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Note: Whenever any FreeWave Technologies module is placed inside an enclosure a label
must be placed on the outside of that enclosure which includes the module's FCC ID.

FGR2-PE User Manual
Choosing Point-to-Point or Point-to-Multipoint Operation
A Point-to-Point network is limited to one Gateway and one Endpoint transceiver. Up to 4 Re-
peaters may be added to extend the reach of the network, but no other Gateway or Endpoint
may be added.
In a Point-to-Multipoint network (also referred to as a Multipoint network) the transceiver, des-
ignated as a Gateway, is able to simultaneously communicate with numerous Endpoints. In its
simplest form, a Multipoint network functions with the Gateway broadcasting its messages to
all Endpoints and the Endpoints responding to the Gateway when given data by the device con-
nected to the data port.
It is important to note the differences between Point-to-Point and Multipoint networks. In a
Point-to-Point network all packets are acknowledged, whether sent from the Gateway to the
Endpoint or from the Endpoint to the Gateway. In a Multipoint network, outbound packets from
the Gateway or Repeater to Endpoint or other Repeaters are sent a set number of times deter-
mined by the user. The receiving transceiver, Endpoint or Repeater, will accept the first packet
received that passes the 32 bit CRC. However, the packet is not acknowledged. On the return
trip to the Gateway, all packets sent are acknowledged or retransmitted until they are acknowl-
edged. Therefore, the return link in a Multipoint network is generally very robust.
Traditionally, a Multipoint network is used in applications where data is collected from many
instruments and reported back to one central site. As such, the architecture of such a network is
different from Point-to-Point applications. The number of radios in a Multipoint network is in-
fluenced by the following parameters:
!" Size of the blocks of data. The longer the data blocks, the smaller the network capacity.
!" Baud rate.
!" The amount of contention between Endpoints. Polled Endpoints vs. timed Endpoints.
!" Use of Repeaters. Using the Repeater setting in a Point-to-Point or a Point-to-Multipoint
network will decrease overall network capacity by at least 50%.
For example, if the network will be polling Endpoints once a day to retrieve sparse data, several
hundred Endpoints could be configured to a single Gateway. However, if each Endpoint will be
transmitting data at greater levels, then fewer Endpoints should be linked to the Gateway. The
overall network will be closer to capacity with fewer Endpoints.
For examples and additional information on data communication links, see the section Ex-
amples of Data Communication Links on page 75.
