Metal Detector Setup - UGCS SkyHub User Manual

Metal Detector Setup

2. Choose the appropriate SERIAL_DEVICE in the [PERGAM_LMM] section depending
on which connector it is connected to. Set it to /dev/ttymxc5 when connecting to
the 5-pin Lemo connector (see UART1) or to /dev/ttymxc1 when connecting to the
4-pin Lemo connector (see UART2):
[PERGAM_LMM]
SERIAL_DEVICE=/dev/ttymxc5 ; UART1 (5-pin Lemo)
; or
SERIAL_DEVICE=/dev/ttymxc1 ; UART2 (4-pin Lemo)
See Pergam LMm Configuration
descriptions.
Metal Detector Setup
There are common metal detector settings in the [METAL_DETECTOR] section. Check
whether minimum and maximum values correspond to your needs:
[METAL_DETECTOR]
MIN_OUTPUT_VALUE_MV=0
MAX_OUTPUT_VALUE_MV=1000
These values are used to bound valid metal detector values. When the output value is out of
the limits, the operator will be notified.
Geonics EM-61 Setup
1. Set GEONICS_EM_61 item to true in [PAYLOADS] section:
[PAYLOADS]
GEONICS_EM_61=true
2. Choose the appropriate SERIAL_DEVICE in the [GEONICS_EM_61] section:
[GEONICS_EM_61]
SERIAL_DEVICE=/dev/ttyUSB0 ; USB-RS232 connection
; or
SERIAL_DEVICE=/dev/ttymxc1 ; onboard RS232 connection
Important: in current version we recommended to use USB connection with USB-RS232
adapter based on CH341 or FTDI FT232RQ.
