8.9.3. Telemetry reports / Digital channels
This Tab defines 8 digital channels available in APRS telemetry reports. These tabs
should be used when WXBits module is connected.
•
“Name”
- short name for the channel, length is limited by APRS standard and is
different for different channel numbers,
•
“Label”
- short label for the channel, length is limited by APRS standard and is
different for different channel numbers,
•
“Source”
- most important field, specifies what data will be send for particular
channel, (M) sources are associated with WXBits module,
•
“Inverted”
- defines if channels should be reported as inverted in BITS telemetry
message,
•
“Default parameters”
– you should click this button after you change data source
for the channel. It loads default coefficient values and name/units for a channel.
Important note: If you change “Source” field for a channel, you also need to change
“Name”, “Label”, and “Inverted” fields. Otherwise everyone else who receive your data
(including web services like aprs.fi) will not be able do decode your reports properly.
8.9.4. Telemetry reports / WXBits outputs
This Tab defines what should be the default states for WXBits output channels.
After power-up APRS Voyager will constantly try to set outputs to the defined states,
unless changed by the user.
