10) Setting station RTC (Real Time Clock)
The station clock is very important as every field data stored by the station is
related to time taking, as a reference, the station RTC.
Being connected through the cable, the station clock can be set with a good
accuracy (the PC clock is used).
After on site installation, having no direct connection between controller PC
and remote station, RTC will be set, if required, by means of a cell phone,
sending an SMS to the station.
As the SMS delivery time is not known, the SMS command sent by the user
generate a message, sent by the station, to itself. If, as usual, the station
receives its message within 30 seconds it takes the time information coming
within the message as the time reference to be used to set its clock.
A confirmation message is then sent to the user mobile phone.
The internal clock can also be set automatically by GPS sending the
#SMSGCSAx* command; in this case the internal clock updating depends on
the GPS strength. For further information see pag. 5-18 .
Select the Point-to-point section of the 8061SW-02 control software and
select one station from the stations list (the first installation will show only one
station set by the software as an example):
Insert the Station Identifier: it is the name you decide to give to your monitor
station. As default it is the serial number of the station.
Insert the Telephone Number: it is the phone number associated to the SIM
card in the area monitor
Insert the Device Password: as default it is PASSPMM
For every field the computer will request the Terminal Password
