Wireless Transmitter Setup - Omega DTG-RTD100 Series User Manual

6.5 Wireless Transmitter Setup

After connecting the USB cable and running the configuration software as
outlined in Section 3, you will complete the following steps to configure your
wireless transmitter before placing the unit into operation. You will be using the
configuration software utility that you installed onto your PC in Section 3. If
you have not installed the configuration software utility you should do so now.
During this procedure you will be setting the following parameters in your
transmitter.
RF Channel
This setting determines the operating channel on which RF connections are
made between the transmitter and receiver. The transmitter must be set to the
same channel as the receiver in order for them to communicate.
Network ID
This sets the ID of the Network that the transmitter will be joining. It must
match the setting of the receiver in order for them to communicate.
Receiver Address
This sets a unique address number for your receiver. Later, when you set up
your receiver you will again set the same number to receive readings from
the corresponding transmitter unit(s). Each receiver must be set for a different
number for your system to operate correctly.
If you will be using more than one receiver unit in your area
it is important to set the transmitter address numbers to be
a corresponding number in your TC-Central software. See
Examples below.
For the first receiver:
Set the address on your transmitters to 101, 102, 103, 104, etc. Then set the
address in your TC-Central software to match.
For the second receiver:
Set the channels on your transmitters to 201, 202, 203, 204, etc. Then set the
address in your TC-Central software to match.
This numbering scheme can be expanded to match the number of receivers you
are using.
Gauge Address
This sets a unique address number into your transmitter. Later, when you set up
your measurement software you will use this address setting to receive readings
from the corresponding unit(s). Each transmitter must be set for a different
address for your system to operate correctly.
Wireless Transmission Rate
This will program your device to transmit 1 data reading to your receiver at a
specified time interval. Available settings are 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105
or 120 seconds.
