Transmitter ID and Data:
Transmitter data is displayed as shown in Table 4.2-2. The sensor data received from a sensor
transmitter is displayed in the applicable units. The units shown on the Transmitter Type line are
configurable, as explained in section 4.3.2.5. Continuous sensor transmitters must be set up in the
receiver before they can be monitored (see sections 4.3.4.2 and 4.3.4.3). Data received from a coded
sensor transmitter that has not been set up in the receiver will be displayed as raw data.
Table 4.2-2: Transmitter types as displayed on the second line of the Monitor screen.
Transmitter Type
Sample
Comments
Continuous pinger
P 1000 ms
“P” indicates the detection is from a continuous
pinger. The period is given in milliseconds (ms).
Continuous 1 sensor
S1 6.3°C
“S1” indicates the data is from a one-sensor
continuous transmitter. The data is shown in the
applicable units.
Continuous 2 sensor
S2 6.3°C 49.5m
“S2” indicates the data is from a two-sensor
continuous transmitter. The data is shown in the
applicable units.
Coded pinger
# 57452
“#” indicates that the coded pinger ID number
follows.
Coded sensor
(with units)
# 58 27.3m
The coded sensor ID number is given followed by
the data with applicable units.
Coded sensor
(without units)
# 8367 RAW=148
The coded sensor ID number is given followed by
the raw sensor data.
Undefined coded tag
Undefined Tag
Indicates a coded ping train was received that could
not be decoded.
I)
Frequency / Code Space:
For coded tags, the code space is displayed (see section 5.3 for an explanation of code space). For
continuous pinger and continuous sensor tags the frequency being monitored on this channel is shown
in kilohertz (kHz). Instructions on setting the channel frequency are given in section 4.3.1.2.
J)
Last detection elapsed time:
The length of time elapsed (in seconds) since the last detection (“LT” stands for “Last Time”). If the
time has been very long, the display will show 999 to indicate there haven’t been recent detections.
4.3 CONFIGURE
The Configure section of the VR100 receiver allows the receiver to be configured according to a user’s
needs. This includes setting up tags, selecting code maps, setting up channels, turning channels on and off,
adjusting the contrast, turning on the backlight, and setting the units. Each of these features is explained in
the sections to follow.
