The T-96SR Field Programming Software may be used to check the value of the Short ID. When setting up a
network, we recommend checking each unit to make sure there is no duplication of Short ID numbers.
Duplications may be resolved by changing the Short ID Number.
If ID Numbers are set within the range of 1 to 1023, the ID Number and the Short ID will always have the
same value (see Table 1-4).
1.11.4 ONLINE DIAGNOSTICS
Online Diagnostics (statistics) require the use of a network configuration such as that specified in the
“Network Using T-Base” or “Network Using T-96SR for Online Diagnostics” sections. Online diagnostics
do not interfere with normal network operation. Online diagnostics provide four types of information:
z
Supply voltage
z
Internal temperature
z
Forward and reverse power in watts
z
Received signal strength (in dBm)
Each T-96SR can accumulate this information for the last 15 stations heard. The accumulated values can be
displayed using the Offline Diagnostics utility or can be dynamically monitored using the Online
Diagnostics utility.
1.11.5 OFFLINE DIAGNOSTICS
Offline diagnostics are statistics returned in response to a specific request to a particular station. The use of
this feature requires temporary suspension of user network operation. Offline diagnostics provide
information that is displayed via the Offline Diagnostics utility. Offline Diagnostics gather and displays five
types of information:
z
Supply voltage
z
Analog supply voltage
z
Internal temperature
z
Received signal strength (in dBm)
z
Forward and reverse power in watts
z
Preamble good & total
z
Preamble DCD
1.11.6 REMOTE COMMANDS
Remote commands that may be sent using the Offline Diagnostics utility include:
Begin test transmission (several types are available)
z
Get statistics (diagnostics)
z
Sample network statistics (monitoring online diagnostics)
z
Get parameters (configuration) from remote unit
Remote commands are sent and responses received with the host application offline.
