180
Sensor type for Ranch Systems DVR unit. Acquires still images as
sensor data.
201
Normally Open (NO) relay/valve sensor/actuator type. All
relay/valves report 0 or 1 as OPEN or CLOSED. However, the
specific type will affect how the relay is actuated by control
commands. Normally open is a quick ~50ms switch between on
and off state, with no power provide to the relay connectors.
202
DC latching relay/valve sensor/actuator type. All relay/valves report
0 or 1 as OPEN or CLOSED. However, the specific type will affect
how the relay is actuated by control command. DC latching is a
slow (~100ms) switch between 0V/12V and -12v/0V output pins
with power drive to the relay pins.
203
Normally Open (NO) momentary relay/valve sensor/actuator type.
Like 201 type, but not bi-stable. After being on for ½ sec, it will
automatically turn back off. Used to make the corresponding relay
act as a momentary push button.
Example:
1984>configset port 1 25 900
Configuration updated.
COUNT
Syntax
:
count
Description
:
Show the current status of all ports that have counting capability. Note that the only port
that has both constant excitation and counting capability (which is often required, for
example for rain gauges) is port 5.
Example:
1984>count
Port 5: counter = 221130286
DATA
Syntax
:
data [
<records>
]
Description
:
Retrieves all (or specified number) of data records in memory waiting for upload to base
station, and generates a sorted format as required by base station.
Normally this command is only used by base station. For command line use,
vdata
gives a more readable output.
Example:
1984>data
I,1984,939557794
S,1984,12,1,253,0,0
D,0,388,10485767
