Periodic reporting minute or hour intervals. Default is 0 (disabled) 

Restoral margin (bits 3:0 only).  

Lower ambient light threshold.  

Upper ambient light threshold.  

 

The upper and lower ambient light thresholds are unsigned values and should fall on the 
scale 0-255.  

The Restoral Margin is used for the upper and lower thresholds and requires the 
ambient light value to cross back over the threshold a certain amount before a new 
event is reported. This prevents excessive event messages if the ambient light is at or 
near the threshold.  

For example, consider an upper light threshold set at 100 and the restoral margin set at 
5. If the ambient light initially exceeds 100 then an event is generated and a message is 
sent to the network. The ambient light must now drop to 95 and then exceed 100 
before another event is reported.  

The restoral margins are unsigned values (1-15) and if it is set to 0, the feature is 
disabled.  

Periodic reporting is described in the section Periodic Reports. 

 

6.3.2.
