CAUTION
Changing these parameters may adversely affect the
ability of the device to operate for extended periods under low sun
shine conditions.
D
ESCRIPTION
Sets/returns the node’s sampling interval and rate.
P
ARAMETERS
The interval (60 - 65535) and rate (0 - 255). The interval represents
the time (in seconds) elapsed between two slots stored in the inter-
nal memory, while the rate represents the numbers of samples
used to build the average that will be stored.
Note: The rate parameter is not relevant for the A725 RTU. The
sensors’ firmware is responsible for calculations of avaraged
values etc.
R
ETURNS
The interval and rate.
REMARKS
GET/SET
. The default interval is 900 (15 minutes) and rate is 15 (15
samples per 15 minutes).

ESCRIPTION
Sets/returns the node’s Power Management Parameters (switches
the battery charge on/off).
P
ARAMETERS
The lower (switch on) and the higher limit (switch off), both in volts
x 10. Standard Values are 65 (for 6.5 Volts) for switch on and 72 (for
7.2 Volts) for switch off (for a standard 6.2 Volt NiCd or NiMH bat-
tery). From these values, other thresholds are internally computed.
R
ETURNS
The lower (switch on) and the higher limit (switch off), both in volts
x 10.
