3.4 Configurable Parameters
In the following, all parameters, which affect the performance of the network as well as
the individual node, is listed and explained. Each setting has an ID which is noted in its
decimal value. This ID is used when configuring the module directly without the
NeoCortec tools.
NOTE: All parameters must be set to the same setting for all nodes in a given network. If
parameters are not set to the same for all nodes, network performance/functionality will
be impacted, and in general will be unpredictable.
3.4.1 Node Access and Application settings
3.4.1.1 Password Level 1..3
ID: 5 – 7 (Level 1, Level 2, Level 3)
Specifies the passwords for logging into the System API. Each level has different
privileges for viewing/modifying various settings.
Default passwords are as follows:
Level 1: Lvl10
Level 2: Lvl20
Level 3: Lvl30
The passwords can be modified by logging on with the same or higher level. Ie. logging
on with Level 2 allows modification of the password for Level 2 and Level 3, but not
Level1.
3.4.1.2 Trace Output
ID: 44
Enables or disables trace messaging output on the SAPI UART interface. A value of 1
enables the trace output, whereas a setting of 0 disables the output.
By default, trace output includes Neighbour lists and AAPI messaging debug
information which can be viewed in the Config Application on the “Developer” pane. It
is useful when debugging network connection issues etc.
Note: Enabling trace output causes an increase in current consumption, and should only
be done in debugging situations.
