TReX User Manual v15.30 Firmware
REMOTE ID
This is the ID of the remote device that all inputs will be sent to. When the MODE is
configured to be MASTER this is the ID of the first SLAVE TReX. All SLAVEs must be
consecutively numbered following this ID.
When the MODE SLAVE is used, the REMOTE_ID is configured to be the same as the
LOCAL_ID (this is required by the MASTER to identify the source of the transmission).
REMOTES
This parameter is only used when the MODE is MASTER. This is the number of wireless
SLAVE units that the MASTER will communicate with.
TX_RETRIES
This parameter is only used when MODE is configured to any non DISABLED state. This
parameter allows for up to 9 transmission retries should a transmission not be acknowledged.
When TX RETRIES is set to 0, there is only a single transmission, and no acknowledgments
are used. When used in this manner, the REFRESH TIME should be set appropriately to
ensure that if a transmission is not received, the TReX units in the system are eventually
synchronised correctly.
INPUTS
This is a shortcut to the INPUT configuration menu.
OUTPUTS
This is a shortcut to the OUTPUT configuration menu. If the OUTPUT is DISABLED, then
messages from a remote unit can NOT change the units outputs. This may be desired if the
OUTPUT is already configured for another purpose such as LINK FAIL OUTPUT. Outputs to
be used should be set to LATCHED.
REFRESH TIME
How long in seconds before sending all input information again. If any INPUT changes then
there is an immediate transmission. The REFRESH TIME ensures that if a message is lost, the
remote device will eventually resynchronise its OUTPUTS with the local device INPUTS.
DELTA ADC TX
Analog data is transmitted after each REFRESH TIME count elapses. This field allows an
immediate transmission if an analog channel has changed by a certain amount since its last
transmission. This is the raw ADC count that is a value up to 1023. Min value is 10 to ensure
that very small changes do not result in continuous transmissions in an electrically noisy
environment.
