RBR's inductive modem communication system, the MLM-1000, for XR and XRX series CTD data loggers is designed to provide fast communication with loggers deployed up to a kilometre in depth. The modem uses an underwater transformer to transmit information through a jacketed mooring line without requiring cables or connectors. Among the major features of MLM 1000 are altering sampling regimes, downloading data, and gauge status and functional health of deployed instruments.
Features:
- Up to 32 instruments may be connected to the MLM-1000
- Mooring line of up to 1000m length
- Communication at 4800 baud is provided over an insulated mooring line
- CRC error detection is included
- MLM-1000 can drive RF, cellular, or satellite telemetry directly
