The receiver needs to know the Sensor Class and the types of sensors that are
used by the transmitters in a study.
Four types of sensors are available: temperature, pressure, activity, and EMG.
Only three types can be used by the receiver at any given time. For the receiver
to interpret and display the sensor data properly, it must know the sensor’s
range and granularity. These are characterized by three numbers: the Minimum
and Maximum (measurement values) and the Level (number of measurement
levels). All of these values (class and type, as well as minimum, maximum, and
level) are normally provided on the shipping sheet that came with the
transmitters from Lotek Wireless Inc.
SETTING THE SENSOR CL A S S
The sensor class is an internal parameter that the receiver requires to interpret
and display sensor data. All transmitters in a study must belong to the same
class.
Set the sensor class via:
Codelog > 1)Config > 6)Sensors > 1)Class
Enter a value between 0 and 9. After a value has been entered, the receiver
automatically returns to the Sensors page.
SE L E C T I N G T H E SE N S O R TYPES
Coded transmitters that are equipped with sensors can combine up to three
sensor types in a single transmitter. The particular sensor combination in use
must be known to the receiver.
Select the sensor types via:
Codelog > 1)Config > 6)Sensors > 2)Type
A maximum of three sensor types can be entered. The number of the selection
corresponds to the menu item number. For example, press key 3 to select the
