NOTES: 1. For analog I/O channels, the Duty Cycle is the percent of time spent in the upper half of the
operating range.
2. The P
max
amount includes any power drawn by a ROC-powered field device such as a
transmitter.
1.5.2 Determining Radio Power Consumption
In determining power requirements for radios:
1. Estimate the Duty Cycle for the radio.
The Duty Cycle is the percentage of time the radio is transmitting (TX). For example, if a radio
is transmitting 1 second out of every 60 seconds, and for the remaining 59 seconds the radio is
drawing receive (RX) power, the Duty Cycle is:
Duty Cycle = TX time ÷ (TX time + RX time) = 1 sec ÷ 60 sec = 0.0167
2. Calculate the total power consumed by a radio, obtain the power (P) consumption values for
transmit and receive from the radio manufacturer’s literature, then use the following equation to
calculate the power consumption for a particular Duty Cycle:
Power = (P
TX
x Duty Cycle) + [P
RX
(1 – Duty Cycle)]
3. Determine the power consumption for all radios that use power from the ROC, and enter the total
calculated value in the Sub-Total column in Table 1-1.
