AGMOD Modem Communications	Includes a high speed modem and connecting cables to allow communications with remote Alphagens, for example when sending a project from your office to a remote head-end. One modem is required for each Alphagen. Using both a modem and weather at the same time requires the Multi Port or Device Controller options.

Additionally, wind chill is calculated and displayed. The Deluxe model adds sensors for barometric pressure and humidity/dew point. Note that to use weather display and a modem on the same Alphagen requires the Multi Port or Device Controller options.
