M7 UHF Band
5 Watt Data Radio Modem

RV-M7-U
The M7 UHF data transceiver is a rugged 5 Watt
UHF data radio modem with an RS-232 (or optional
422/485) serial interface, perfect for SCADA and
telemetry applications. It has an optional GPS for use
in AVL and asset tracking applications.

Long-Range Operation

OTA Configuration

Operating in the UHF 450-480MHz frequency
band, the RV-M7 radio modem works over 50
miles point-to-point and many miles with omnidirectional antennas. All RV-M7 modems support
store-and-forward repeating for wide-area
coverage.

The ID of a particular transponder and certain system
parameters such as report rate may be configured OverThe-Air, without having to physically connect to the unit.

Fast Polling
The M7 transceiver has a 3mS PLL in it, making it
one of the fastest telemetry radios available,
especially well suited for polled, DNP and
MODBUS applications.

High Speed and High Efficiency
The RV-M7 operates with user-selectable overthe air data rates of 1200 to 19200bps.
Faster
rates for higher efficiency or lower-speed for
increased communication range.
Its fastswitching radio enables it to send up to 50
transmissions per second.

GPS Option
The optional internal GPS allows the RV-M7 to be
a powerful Automatic Vehicle Locating (AVL)
system or Time Space Position Information (TSPI)
reporting device.

Fully Programmable
It is configured with a serial connection using
industry-standard AT commands. Parameters
such as network IDs, unit ID and transmission rate
are easily configured. Raveon also provides a PC
program called “Radio Manager” that makes
configuring the M7 a snap.

Real-time diagnostics and statistics
Channel performance, RSSI, RF power, packet counters,
and radio configuration are easily accessed via the serial
port or remotely over-the-air.
An Auto-Status feature
enables the RV-M7 to periodically report its status and DC
voltage.

Very Low Power Consumption
The advanced UHF transceiver is integrated with a
powerful 32-bit microprocessor-based modem in one easyto mount package. It has very low power consumption,
and sleep modes that allow it to be active and consume
almost no power at all.

Rugged and Weather Proof
The RV-M7 is available with optional ‘weather proof’ IP65
(NEMA 4) rated connections and enclosure. All models
include protection against damage from over-temperature,
high VSWR, and reverse voltage.

Flexible Addressing and Error Correction
The RV-M7 uses a 16 bit address with a 16 bit network
mask, allowing for many devices to be co-located without
receiving each other, as well as the creation of sophisticated
network topologies.
