4.3.6 Sensor Parameters

• In the first column of Configuration/Device Setup menu (Figure 4.11), click on No. 1

to view and modify the Sensor Parameters Menu for Temperature.

You may

type any

ASCII

characters in the

first three boxes,

but you must

delete the leading

spaces.

Below are some definitions of terms used in the Sensor Parameters Menu.

Device Name: shows on the Configuration and the Read Sensor page.

Display Format:

Decimal - the leading zero is eliminated.

Raw - the leading zero is there (do not change, for future use)

Remote Display Format: Remote display format is for Terminal Server continuous mode.

H_00.00% in humidity setting, displays H_ and 00.00% is the humidity value displayed.

Example: if the humidity is 30.00, then H_30.00% will be seen in the remote display. If no

format is specified (blank), there is no reading sent out. If temperature is 76.25 and

00.0F is used in temperature setting, the remote site will show 76.2F.

This format setup is originally based on iLD Remote Display, which has four and six

LEDs. For six LEDs, T_00.00F can be set, and for four LEDs, 00.0F can be used.

Remote End Char: The default value is 0D (Hex representation of <CR>). This means

that the iServer sends <CR> after each temperature, humidity, and dewpoint value. This

will be done either in Continuous or Command mode.

This is how the data will appear on the host:

T_75.70F

H_37.90%

D_44.90F

If the end character is 20 (Hex representation of space), the

data will then appear as: T_75.70F H_37.90% D_44.90F

If nothing is set for the "Remote End Char" field, the iServer will

then forward the data to the LAN with no characters followed.

Offset: SInce the sensing probe is solid state electronics, there

is no need for calibration. If it's determined that the readings

are slightly off, the user can manually assign numerical values

to adjust the readings for temperature, humidity and dewpoint.

For temperature offset, the unit must be in degree C. The

Offset can be changed while recording is on.
