Transmitter Configuration
The Base-Station must be configured to expect the right number of the right type of transmitters
as follows :
This tab is where you tell the Base-station what transmitters to expect. The configuration
entered here must match that set up in the transmitter or the Base-station will not recognise it.
Initially all 16 transmitters will appear in the left hand (Disabled) panel. The transmitters that are
to be active on the system are selected by clicking the mouse on the appropriate number.
Clicking on the large blue arrow> will move the transmitter into the Enabled panel and the
Base-station now expects that device to be transmitting.
In this way select all the transmitters you wish to work with until the map in the Enabled
Transmitter panel accurately reflects the system.
It is now necessary to enter the characteristics of each active transmitter into the Base-station.
Select an active transmitter by clicking on the number.
The lower pane now shows the configuration data for that transmitter.
General
The first tab displays the Transmitter ID, a 12 character Descriptor which is used to more easily
identify the measurement area and the transmit rate which must be set to the same rate as the
transmitter (Normally 10 Minutes). Move to next tab or save.
Internal Temperature
Each transmitter has an on-board temperature sensor that can have a low and a high alarm
set.
