Gateway: There, a drop-down list allows the selection of any gateway that exists in
the system, or ‘None’. Note also that whilst gateways can be associated with multiple
machines, multiple sensors on a machine can only connect to the same, single
gateway. In addition, whilst a machine has a commissioned sensor, it is not possible
to change to another gateway or select ‘None’.
Scheduled Trend and Scheduled Dynamic Data storage:
Both Interval and Interval Alarm settings for Trend storage default to ‘Once per day’
and for Dynamic Data storage, ‘Once per week’. These are the least demanding, less
frequent settings and if required can be set to shorter intervals:
Further options for the Trend storage: twice, four or eight times a day or every hour.
Further options for the Dynamic Data storage: every two days, day or every hour.
Note that the ‘Every hour’ selection for dynamic data is only available where the user
has selected the same setting for the respective, Interval or Interval Alarm Trend
storage setting.
In addition, the Interval Alarm setting for Trend or Dynamic Data can only be set at
the same or at a faster capture rate than the equivalent Interval setting.
Be aware that the frequency of data collection affects sensor power usage and that
shorter acquisition intervals will always tend to reduce battery life.
