TS4-TW-101Repeater / Access Point

WAM System User Guide General Description The Tehama WAM system consists of three device types to remotely monitor various environmental and utility readings and provide the data to a central database or PC for formal presentation and reporting. MDT/Sensor devices will be placed in all locations requiring local monitoring of data. The MDT/Sensors will transmit time stamped data to a Base device, which receives the data and forwards it to a Database computer through a variety of means (serial port, USB Port, Ethernet). For MDT/Sensors that are out of range from the Base, Repeater devices are added in appropriate locations to relay the data between MDT/Sensors and the Base. The system operates in the 865MHz (Europe/Asia) and 915Mhz (US) ISM bands using off-the- shelf FSK RFIC radios. The system operates as a Frequency Hopper over 60 narrow band frequency channels, incorporating a bidirectional communication link with Acknowledge (ACK) messages to ensure all data reaches the Base. The MDT/Sensors are battery operated, bursting data packets at pre-programmed times then shutting down to conserve battery life, estimated to exceed 4 years. The Base and Repeater units are line powered. With an average MDT/Sensor transmission rate of four per hour, a single Base can accommodate many hundreds of MDT/Sensors. Through the use the ACK messages and local memory in both the MDT/Sensors and Repeaters, the number of MDT/Sensors supported can exceed a thousand. There is no limit to the number of repeaters, though an average installation may require one Repeater for every 20-30 MDT/Sensors. Figure 1: Typical System WAM User's Guide.pages!1 of 4 A system consists of two or three types of hardware, and two pieces of software: • Database Software on a PC or Access Point • Tehama Configuration Utility • One Base Unit or Access Point • A variable number of Sensors units, each with 2 AA batteries • A variable number of Repeater units (optional, depending on size of installation) with external DC power supply. Warning Tehama Installation Tool You should have received a copy of the Tehama Configuration and Installation Tool software. This runs on a Windows based PC. More detailed information can be found in the separate manual for that software. The tool can be run on the PC either prior to or during a site installation, or when new MDT/ Sensors are added to a system. The tool is used to add configuration data to the database. Examples of configuration data include the name, type, and location of equipment an MDT/ Sensor is connected to, and alarm trigger settings for the different MDT/Sensors. MDT/Sensor Configuration All MDT/Sensors come from the factory with a default factory-set configuration. The following parameters can be configured in the field by qualified installation staff through a UART style interface and terminal program running on a PC. There are no parameters which can be configured on the Base or Receiver. The most common field programmable settings are: • Monitor Type, defined as the type of device the unit is attached to for measurements. This includes temperature via thermocouple or thermistor, humidity, CO2, Pressure, or various pulse type inputs from Utility meters or dry contact outputs from door sensors or other devices. • Transmit Interval, defined as the time between scheduled transmissions of temperature data. A temperature measurement is taken every Transmit Interval, and the data transmitted within 60 seconds after the measurement. The units for this parameter are seconds, and the default value is 900 seconds (15 minutes). • Measure Interval, defined as the time between scheduled temperature measurements. This is used in conjunction with Temperature Change (see below) and must be smaller than NOTE: THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE CAUSED BY UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS TO THIS EQUIPMENT. SUCH MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID THE USER’S AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT WAM User's Guide.pages!2 of 4 the Transmit Interval time. A value of 0 for this parameter will disable measurements in between the Transmit Interval. The units for this parameter are in seconds, with default set to 0. • Temperature Change, defined as a percentage change in the Thermistor resistance value (i.e. temperature) detected by the sensor. A Delta Temp alarm will be generated within the PC Software if a Sensor reading taken at a Measure Interval is more than Temperature Change percent from the prior Transmit Interval value. The units for this parameter are Percent (%), with the default value set to 0. Usage THe MDT/Sensors will come with Batteries installed. With the Configuration Tool running on the PC and the Base or Access Point on and connected to a PC or the Internet, the user will press and hold the button near the LED window until the LED starts to flash. It will flash slowly at first, then rapidly flash when a Beacon is seen (from a Repeater or Base/AP), then finally illuminates for 10 seconds when it successfully communicates with the network. If configuration changes are required, the case can be opened and the Serial header inserted into J4 (with the black/green lead toward the center of the board). Once changes are made, a “reset” command is issued to restart the MDT/Sensor. All changes are stored in non-volatile memory and will survive a battery change or power off. Button Usage (for MDT/Sensor and Repeater) When a unit is off, press and hold for three or four seconds to turn on. LED starts to flash When unit is on, press and hold for three or four seconds to turn off. LED will be off A single press can indicate the state of the unit Constant on LED for 10 seconds means unit successfully communicating to network Single LED flash indicates the unit is on but not communicating with the network Double LED flash indicates the unit is OFF A double press when the unit is on and Connected will trigger an immediate data transmission Device Placement With the Base Unit plugged into t…
