G3 Technologies, Inc. products

The G310 Radio Adaptor board was developed as a form and function compatible drop-in 9XStream radio replacement. The 9XStream was formerly made by Digi International (Maxstream). For G3 Technologies wireless I/O products, the G310-01 uses “XSC” firmware, making it configuration and over-the-air compatible with the X09-009 XStream radio (shown in pic) previously used. The G310-01 uses the 900mHz XBee-Pro RF module, and can be used with the XSC firmware compatible with the 9XStream, or with Digi-Mesh firmware for high-performance Mesh-network applications. It also doubles the affective RF range with 250mW of Tx power.

The Model G301 Serial I/O is a low cost solution for I/O expansion and remote I/O requirements in SCADA and Process Control applications. It can be used with G303 Wireless I/O, or with a PLC/RTU for I/O expansion in local or remote applications. It provides 24 Digital Inputs, 4 Analog Inputs, and 8 Digital (FET) Outputs. See pdf data sheet for details, and call G3 Technologies for pricing. The G301 uses standard RS485 serial data communications with Modbus Slave protocol. It is especially suited for applications requiring low power and/or environmental tolerance, including SOLAR applications. It also makes a great local or remote “Modbus End Device” to gather data for a PLC or RTU acting as a Data Concentrator.

The Model G303 RIO (Remote I/O) is a robust, economical solution for local I/O expansion, or Wireless and/or RS485 remote I/O requirements in SCADA and Process Control applications.In addition to its RS485 data port, it is available with an integrated spread-spectrum radio for high performance Wireless data communications. And with the use of the integrated SS radio, the RS485 port can be used to add additional I/O or other Modbus devices to the Wireless system. Other communication options are also available.

The G306C RioLink Wireless Serial Modem is a stand-alone high performance Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) radio with user selectable RS232 or RS485 data interface. It is available in 900MHz 100mW or 2.4GHz 50mW models, and in most applications it is plug-n-play. It is packaged in an attractive enclosure for panel or DIN rail mounting, and has connections for standard DB9 serial port cable, 10-30Vdc power input, and RPSMA antenna connector. It also has LEDs annunciating power and data activity, and is Class I, Div 2 certified.

The G306C RioLink Wireless Serial Modem is a stand-alone high performance Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) radio with user selectable RS232 or RS485 data interface. It is available in 900MHz 100mW or 2.4GHz 50mW models, and in most applications it is plug-n-play. It is packaged in an attractive enclosure for panel or DIN rail mounting, and has connections for standard DB9 serial port cable, 10-30Vdc power input, and RPSMA antenna connector. It also has LEDs annunciating power and data activity, and is Class I, Div 2 certified. In a typical G3 Wireless I/O point-to-point or point-to-multipoint network, the RioLink is used on the serial data port of the Modbus Master (RTU, PLC, Controller, PC). The RioLink is transparent to the serial data to & from the Modbus Master, and provides the radio link to the Wireless I/O Slaves.

This special version of the G303 is available as a drop-in replacement for the Amocams ASC 558 Combo RTU. It uses the same G303 hardware, but with an FSK Modem and custom firmware. Reference the G303-558 User Doc (below) for additional information.
