These new programming capabilities are categorized into four groups: general settings, data
transmission mode, switch button activation, and map/cell ID. The enhancements that directly affect the
use of AeroScout asset tags with the Cisco LBS solution are on the general settings submenu found at
Configuration > Advanced > General Settings, as shown in Figure 82.
Figure 82 AeroScout Tag Manager v2.1 Advanced Configuration General Settings
The Advanced Configuration window contains the following:
• Message repetitions and message repetitions interval (msec)—This should not be confused with the
tag beacon rate. For example, if the tag beacon rate is set to 60 seconds on the main tag configuration
screen (shown in Figure 82) and the number of message repetitions is set to 4 with a message
repetitions interval of 512msec, the result is 4 repetitions of the tag beacon sent every 60 seconds,
spaced 512 msec apart. Standard operation for the AeroScout T2 tag is to transmit a single beacon
on all channels defined in Tag Manager (tags are capable of transmitting on multiple channels in
sequence).
