MDT/Sensor Configuration
All MDT/Sensors come from the factory with a default factory-set configuration. The following
parameters can be custom configured at the factory . There are no parameters which can be
configured on the DCAP or Receiver.
•
Monitor Type, defined as the type of device the unit is attached to for measurements.
This includes temperature via thermocouple or thermistor, humidity, CO2, Pressure, or
various pulse type inputs from Utility meters or dry contact outputs from door sensors or
other devices.
•
Transmit Interval, defined as the time between scheduled transmissions of temperature
data. A temperature measurement is taken every Transmit Interval, and the data
transmitted within 60 seconds after the measurement. The units for this parameter are
seconds, and the default value is 900 seconds (15 minutes).
•
Measure Interval, defined as the time between scheduled temperature measurements.
This is used in conjunction with Temperature Change (see below) and must be smaller than
the Transmit Interval time. A value of 0 for this parameter will disable measurements in
between the Transmit Interval. The units for this parameter are in seconds, with default set
to 0.
•
Temperature Change, defined as a percentage change in the Thermistor resistance value
(i.e. temperature) detected by the sensor. A Delta Temp alarm will be generated within the
PC Software if a Sensor reading taken at a Measure Interval is more than Temperature
Change percent from the prior Transmit Interval value. The units for this parameter are
Percent (%), with the default value set to 0.
Usage
THe MDT/Sensors will come with Batteries installed. With the Configuration Tool running on the
PC and the DCAP or Access Point on and connected to a PC or the Internet, the user will press
and hold the button near the LED window until the LED starts to flash. It will flash slowly at
