4.3.4.3 Setting Up Two-sensor Continuous Sensor Transmitters (4-3)
From the Main screen:
1.
Select Config (right selection button).
2.
Press “4” on the keypad.
NOTE: For coded two-sensor tags, two separate sensor tag entries are required – one for each tag ID
(sensor). Since the VR100 does not allow duplicate serial numbers in the sensor database, the serial
number for the second sensor entry must be different than the first sensor entry. We recommend that
you use the serial number provided on the specification sheet for the first sensor entry, and the same
serial number with a prefix for the second sensor entry. For example, using “20” as the prefix:
Sensor 1 SN: 1034857
Sensor 2 SN: 201034857
