For 2.4GHz band modules in current implementation channel range is
limited to 1..11 inclusive.
1
BEACON_INTERVAL
Interval in milliseconds defining how frequently the wireless beacon
messages to be transmitted (Access Point mode).
Value may vary in the range
100..1000
100
DTIM_PERIOD
Interval equal to the number of beacon message periods defining when a
delivery traffic indication message to be sent out by the interface. It serves to
wake up compatible clients from the sleep mode. (Access Point mode).
Value may vary in the range
1..255
.
1
MAX_STA_SUPPORT

DHCP_SERVER_ENABLE
Enable embedded DHCP server (Access Point mode)
YES
DHCP_SERVER_START_IP
Start IP address for embedded DHCP Server (Access Point mode)
192.168.0.2
DHCP_SERVER_END_IP
End IP address for embedded DHCP Server (Access Point mode)
192.168.0.50
DHCP_LEASE_TIME
Lease time for embedded DHCP Server in seconds (Access Point mode)
Value may vary in the range
10..4294967293

For example, the following commands would be used to set the parameters in the above example:
PROFILE WIFI IP_ADDRESS=192.168.42.15
PROFILE WIFI SUBNET_MASK=255.255.255.224
PROFILE WIFI GATEWAY=192.168.42.3
Alternatively, if a DHCP server was available on the network then you could simply use:
PROFILE WIFI IP_ADDRESS=AUTO
By default, the above command is assigned to one of the DT80's user defined functions, accessible from the front panel;
see User Defined Functions (P121). This makes it easy to enable Ethernet on a new logger without having to connect to
it.
Setting DNS Server address
To set the DNS server address use
PROFILE NETWORK DNS_SERVER_1=192.168.42.4
PROFILE NETWORK DNS_SERVER_2=192.168.42.5
The first setting is for the primary DNS server; the second is for an optional alternative server, which will only be used if
the primary server is offline.
These settings will be ignored if valid DNS server address(es) were obtained from the DHCP server.
WiFi Email
To send an email, an Internet-connected computer needs to send the message to an SMTP server (Simple Mail
transport Protocol). This server, and its brethren around the world, will then take care of delivering the message to the
specified email address.
Thus in order for the DT80 to be able to send data or alarm messages via email, it will need to know the name of a
suitable SMTP server. This may be a corporate email server on the local LAN, or it may be a mail service provided by
your ISP, or it may be a third-party public SMTP server on the Internet (both free and paid email services are available).
The DT80 only supports SMTP servers that:
• support LOGIN authentication
• do not require SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption
Note: gmail SMTP service aspmx.l.gmail.com may be used with some limitation on destination address since it may get filtered by
destination server.
Your email service provider will supply you with the SMTP server name, a username and a password, which you will
need to enter into the DT80's profile, as follows:
PROFILE WIFI_SESSION SMTP_SERVER=server name
PROFILE WIFI_SESSION SMTP_ACCOUNT=email account name
PROFILE WIFI_SESSION SMTP_PASSWORD=password
You also need to specify the sender name and email address that the DT80 will use when sending email. For example:
PROFILE WIFI_SESSION SENDER_NAME="Your Company"
PROFILE WIFI_SESSION RETURN_ADDRESS=[e-mail]
If SENDER_NAME is not set then the DT80 model and serial number is used, e.g. "DT82EM-3 096605".
The RETURN_ADDRESS profile should be set to the email address associated with your account. In the event that an
