Click the plus next to the Satlink tree, then select the Self-Timed branch and click the EDIT
button. From here, enter all the parameter of the transmission as assigned by NESDIS. For this
example, use a 1 hour rate at a 00:00:00 time (offset) and send 8 data values. Also, set the
window centering to on and set the window to 15 seconds.
Since this setup is not going to use alarms, no more information is needed for the Satlink setup.
If alarms were to be defined, the
RANDOM tree would be the place to set that information.
Measuring a shaft encoder every 15-minute on a fixed interval is easily accomplished using the
new EZSetup tree of the
SETUP Tab . First, define the measurement interval, then add the sensor
and configure it.
Add the new measurement interval by clicking the plus sign next to EZSetup Measurements,
then highlight [New Measurement] and click EDIT.
From here, all parameters for setting up a schedule are shown. For the purpose of this setup, the
default values already meet the schedule, so just click OK.
Now that the schedule is defined, a plus sign appears to show that sensors may be added. Click
this plus sign to expand the tree, then select [New Sensor] and click EDIT.
