• No-motion is a sensor that detects whether the asset the RSN is attached to has stopped
moving for a specified duration. For example, should a First Responder become disabled
and remain motionless for a defined period of time, the RSN will issue an alarm to you
application to this effect.
• Motion is a sensor that detects whether the asset the RSN is attached to is moving at a
level and time that it should not be. For example, if an RSN is attached to a piece of
stationary equipment that suddenly begins moving, the RSN will issue an alarm to you
application to this effect.
• Shock is a sensor that when the RSN is struck with a pre-configured force, the RSN will
issue a distress alarm to you application to this effect.
• The RSN Check-in time is the elapsed time between when the RSN checks in with the
TeraHop network to confirm network connectivity. This is defined for each Profile. For
example, an asset assigned to a dangerous task would want a more frequent check-in than
an asset in rehab.
It is important to note that the internal sensors are mutually exclusive. That is, an RSN
cannot have both Shock and Motion enabled at the same time.
Although the Tool supports three profiles, only one profile is active at a time, meaning that
its sensory monitoring and reporting settings are the ones that the RSN is following. All other
profiles are dormant until initiated by your application, or a pre-determined field condition is
experienced.
8.3.6 Set the Class Information
The Class Information is used to define the TeraHop network with which the configured
RSNs can communicate, whether it is a TeraHop network generated by the organization
configuring the RSNs, or one that is joined in a merge or mutual aide scenario. As the
defaults are already set for the First Responder market, no changes to the parameters defined
under this tab should be required unless the RSN Asset Type is to be associated with a piece
of equipment rather than an individual.
To edit the Asset Type parameter on the Class Information tab, do the following:
1. In the configuration tree, select the configuration.
2. Override the default for the Asset Type field.
3. In the Asset Type field, click the drop-down arrow and select Inanimate.
