TWIG LOCATOR FEATURES
19
G-SENSOR
Using G-sensor mode requires that there is
accelerometer in your Locator unit.
When timer mode is activate on your Locator
(
config 33: on/off timer on page 30 ), also accelom-
eter is used to start up the device. When the
defined accelometer parametres are met, the
device starts up, and all active processes e.g.
tracking are activated.
When turning on by sensitivity condition, the
condition must be met for the time defined in
accelerometer duration. If the condition
meets the defined time, the device is turned
on. When the device is turned on, it keeps
checking the sensitivity condition. Condition is
monitored continously and every met value
resets the power off timer, and the device
remains activated. For more information, see
config 37: accelometer sensitivity on page 31 and
config 38: accelometer duration on page 31 .
MAN DOWN ALERT
The purpose of man down feature is to moni-
tor device orientation, and launch alert if hor-
izontal/vertical orientation is lost.
- Horizontal orientation: The device is
considered to have horizontal position
when its angle from absolute lateral
orientation (device in absolute hori-
zontal position, LED lights facing up )
differs less than than the defined man
down alert angle. The difference is
measured in degrees.
- Vertical orientation: The device is
considered to have vertical orienta-
tion when its angle from absolute
upright orientation (device in abso-
lute vertical position, connectors fac-
ing down) differs less than the
defined man down alert angle. The
difference is measured in degrees.
Man down angle is defined in configuration
settings. See
config 41: man down alert angle on
page 32 for more information.
