3.0 Description of the WRE

The Cypress Envirosystems Wireless Range Extender (WRE) is used to extend the range of wireless data
from a field device to the Blue Box Server. When the WRE receives a message, it waits its specified delay
time, and repeats the signal twice.
Each WRE has two radios that are pre-programmed with a specific radio channel set that must match the
channel set of the field devices. WREs are pre-programmed with a specified delay. When a WRE receives
a message, it appends its tag (also known as its ID) to the message. If a WRE receives a message that
already contains its ID, it will drop the message and will not repeat it.
