9.3 Increasing update rate
The update frequency is affected by 2 main parameters:
1) Radio profiles
2) Room dimensions (tracking areas)
If you need to tune the update rate of tracking, do the following:
1) Radio profiles:
There are 3 radio profiles available: 38kbps, 153kbps, 500kbps:
‒ 38kbps is the slowest, but is able to cover a greater distance
‒ 153kbps - average speed, overcomes the average distance (default)
‒ 500kbps is the fastest, but works at a shorter distance
Accordingly, to raise the update rate, we recommend switching to 500kbps.
How to:
In the settings bar of each device in the system (including modem),
change the Radio profile parameter to 500kbps (or any you need). It is
situated in the Dashboard, on the right side of the Dashboard screen.
Tip: Change the beacons’ profile before modem’s, in order not to lose
your beacons. It allows you to do it remotely
2) Room dimensions (tracking areas)
Update rate is also having linear dependence with tracking distance (distance
between stationary and mobile beacon):
Longer distance – lower update rate
Smaller distance – higher update rate
If you have room 10x10m, change maximum distance setting. This will limit
the system to the maximum measurement distance.
How to:
‒ Go to the submap settings (click on the submap icon)
‒ Change maximum distance value in meters (20 is a default)
Tip: Do not enter very small value, use 1-2 meter’s margin. Also, do not
use 20 meters if you have small tracking area. Tune carefully
