3.7 RADIO CONFIGURATION
Very Fast Logging Intervals
Normally loggers will transmit every measurement as it is taken. If the logging interval is faster than 2
minutes then multiple measurements are sent in a burst. This batching process avoids radio congestion,
and maximises capacity.
The Replication Timebase Parameter can be changed to adjust the interval between measurement
transmissions. A data logger will not transmit measurements more frequently than between one and
two multiples of the Replication Timebase.
The default value for this parameter is one minute.
Note that this parameter is different from the Measurement Interval, which can be controlled using
Tinytag Explorer and is typically set to 10 minutes. Under normal circumstances, measurements are
transmitted as soon as they are taken, and arrive on the computer system almost immediately.
The Replication Timebase Parameter may be increased to save battery power, at the expense of less
frequent measurement updates onto the computer system.
For example, if the Measurement Interval is 10 minutes, and the Replication Timebase is 30 minutes,
the radio data logger will record between three and six measurements (30 to 60 minutes) before
transmitting them all back to the computer system.
This saves battery power due to reduced transmission overheads.
