If the Alarm Interval is zero, alarm transmissions are made once when the station enters alarms, and
optionally a second time when the station goes out of alarms.
11.1.6 TX Format
The TX Format field controls how the sensor data is formatted in the message. Each format has its own
distinctive advantages. Choices:

Pseudobinary B, C, and D

SHEF and SHEFFIX

ASCII Column

ASCII Sensor

CSV

MIS
SHEF, SHEFFIX, and Pseudobinary formats are traditionally used for GOES applications. They are
characterized by a short message length and little to no metadata.
MIS and CSV formats include much more metadata and result in longer messages. They are typically
transmitted over the cellular network.
The specifics of formatting are covered in greater detail in 16 T

.
To see what your data will look like after it has been formatted, click the “Show Tx Data” button in the
Telemetry Status section of the telemetry tab.
Date Format
The Date Format setting is used for the MIS format (as per section 16.8 MIS ). It defaults to YYYY/MM/DD.
It may be used to change the format of the date in the transmitted data.
11.2 Cell Setup
XLink may be equipped with a cell modem. A cellular modem is similar to equipment found in a mobile
phone.
The station will use the cellular modem to connect to the internet and deliver sensor data to a server. If
the station is setup to allow incoming TCP/IP connections, the station may be accessed remotely over the
internet. The modem is also used to send and receive SMS (text) messages.
