Overview

Honeywell's OneWireless solution is a multi-application, multi-standard wireless
network for industrial applications. It offers wireless coverage networks ranging from a
simple wireless field instrument network to a completely integrated plant-wide multi-
application wireless network. OneWireless R200 is based on a new wireless
communication stack, a new software partitioning and physical topology, and a new
software model.
The OneWireless network provides support for field instruments, actuators, and wireless-
enabled applications within a single network. The solution optimizes plant productivity
and reliability, improves safety and security, and ensures regulatory compliance. The
OneWireless network seamlessly extends the process control network to a plant that has
the capability to,

Install battery-powered wireless field instruments to collect additional data to
improve control strategies or conform to regulations at lower costs.

Empowers a mobile workforce by providing remote access to process data and other
plant-related information.

Enhances plant security by cost effectively implementing wireless CCTV cameras.

Improves personnel safety.

Connects remote controllers to the central control system.
