Configuration
The T24-AO1 is configured by setting the Data Tag of the module whose data you wish to reflect onto the
analogue output.
Once you know the data tag you then need to work out which calibrated values from the transmitter module you
want represented by the selected analogue output minimum and maximum levels.
For example: A T24-SA has been calibrated to give 0 to 10 tonnes output. You have selected a 4-20mA analogue
output and want the output to give 4mA at 0 tonnes and 20mA at 8 tonnes. Simply set the In Minimum to 0 and
In Maximum to 8.
Next you set the desired actions when errors occur.
To associate the T24-AO1 with a transmitter module you just need to let the T24-AO1 know the Data Tag of the
data to use.
This can be done manually using the T24 Toolkit (See below) or this can be achieved using the Pair button of the
T24-AO1.
When first configuring the T24-AO1 it really makes no difference which technique is used but if you were
replacing a data transmitter module in the field the switch technique would negate the need for the Toolkit or a
base station.
To perform a 'pair' first remove the power from the transmitter module. Next, press the Pair Switch on the T24-
AO1 then within 10 seconds re-apply power to the transmitter module. The mode LED will indicate the success or
failure of this operation (See above table).
To access the Pair Switch on a T24-AO1i you need to remove the lid. The Pair Switch can be
accessed through a hole in the end of the case on a T24-AO1; a straightened paper clip
could be used.
An advantage of using the Pair Switch is that you can pair to any transmitter module regardless of its radio
channel or group key settings. When you pair the transmitter module settings will be changed to match those of
the T24-AO1. If you manually enter the Data Tag using the T24-Toolkit you will need to ensure that both the
transmitter module and the T24-AO1 are on the same radio channel and are using the same group key.
T24 Toolkit
The T24 Toolkit provides a means of simple configuration and calibration of the module along with useful tools to
aid integration.
Launch the T24 Toolkit software application and pair to this module to enable the connection to the Toolkit to
allow configuration to take place.
