Descrição Técnica

The DCP200 consists of our CR295X datalogger, TX320 HDR GOES satellite transmitter, Yagi antenna, GPS antenna, ENC16/18 enclosure, antenna cables, power supply, and software. The TX320 transmitter supports data transmission rates of 300 and 1200 bps. Because clock accuracy is critically important for GOES satellite telemetry, the TX320 includes a robust, TCXO-based real-time clock and a GPS receiver.
