Here we use either the sink (Thetis-I USB radio stick) or any other Thetis-I module to send the respective command to the sensor node for the modification of the interval. To do so, just send the new interval value in seconds as ASCII string to the endpoint 104 of the sensor node (see figure 32 ).
2 - DATA_FORMAT_INTEGER_ON_DIFFERENT_EP All data is sent in ASCII format to sink end point 108, 109 and 110 respectively. Attention: In this case, three Wirepas messages are sent per interval. This results in an increased power consumption. Thetis-I EVK Version 1.4, October 2024 www.we-online.com/wcs...
Wirepas stack settings of a Wirepas node, such as node role or node id, can be configured by remote configuration messages in a predefined sequence: Sending a "Begin" request; The node acknowledges the "Begin" request with a "Response" message; Sending a "Write" request for the change of setting; Thetis-I EVK Version 1.4, October 2024 www.we-online.com/wcs...
In the Wirepas Commander, this can be done using the "Read" button available in the "Remote" tab. In the example below, the configured network address is requested to the sensor node, which responds with the default address "7". Thetis-I EVK Version 1.4, October 2024 www.we-online.com/wcs...
