Basic Information

IQRF is an RF platform – for constructions with radio (RF) connectivity. You can use it whenever you need wireless information transfer, e.g. remote control, monitor, alarm, displaying of remotely acquired data or connection of more equipments to wireless network.

Very easy to use, networks possibility, high performance, reasonable price

Wireless transfers can be illustrated with the example of control and guarding of a garage gate. Basic RF principles and fundamental IQRF advantages are explained there.

The IQRF system has even other advantages:

• It is the whole platform. It means that besides of basic parts (transceiver modules) all other necessary ware is available: development tools, accessories and application support.
• It is a compact modular system. The user can always choose from available components to obtain all what he need for development as well as for final production. The transceiver modules with batteries and antennas can serve as final realization of the whole application. More complex projects (e.g. with USB or Ethernet connection to PC) can be realized using some of IQRF kits, in both cases without other external components.
• Excellent application support (application programs, examples, ready solutions, technical support, training courses, programming service, ...)
• Transceiver modules have even useful additional functions (LDO regulator, temperature sensor, A/D measurement, LED indication, ...)

IQRF Purpose

The IQRF system can be effectively used among others in the following branches:

Telemetry

Measurements:

• temperature, pressure, humidity
• lighting intensity
• magnetic field
• distance, angle
• pH, redox potential, concentration

Data collection from meters:

• water meters
• gas meters
• electrometers
• heat energy consumption meters
• flow meters

Detectors:

• shake sensors
• gas detectors
• atmosphere monitors

Building, home and office automation

• Wireless on/off (wall) switches/pushbuttons, ...
• Remote settings of equipments
• Switching of appliances
• Monitoring and control:
  • gates, doors, windows, (Venetian) blinds
  • heating, air-conditioning
  • lighting, dimming
• Wireless temperature meters
• Security systems, guardings and alarms
• Smoke detectors, fire alarms
• Closing winows and doors in case of a fire
• Checking whether doors and windows are properly closed
• Intelligent thermoregulators with remote management
