CONFIGURATION
Contents
General remarks
- Customer Owners/Admins of ANITRA devices can access and modify device configuration
Configuration delivery and application
- configuration is applied whenever Device connects to communicate (send data)
- only modified config parameters are sent in order to optimize traffic
- by default the configuration is sent and delivered to the device via GPRS data
- an alternative delivery channel is SMS ("Send by SMS" button)
- using SMS might help to deliver configuration in areas with poor data coverage but please note that using SMS has certain limitations
- SMS delivery is not guaranteed which might cause inconsistency in device configuration temporarily
- just part of the full configuration scope can be fit into single configuration SMS ("Sent by SMS" button is only available till all the modifications fit into one SMS message)
- additional charges might be applied when using SMS
- using SMS might help to deliver configuration in areas with poor data coverage but please note that using SMS has certain limitations
Configuration structure
- User configuration: covers the following aspects of device behavior
- Admin Configuration:
- a range of additional admin parameters which control basic device behavior, allows remote troubleshooting, firmware upgrades etc.
Configuration Areas
Data collection settings
- GPS/sensor sampling
- configurable based on both solar or human time)
- comfortable day/night transition set up
- Data collection triggered by activity
- Continuous Activity Estimation
- Dedicated Mortality detection functionality
- Adjustment of basic data collection cycles based on location (Geofencing using Points of Interest (POIs))
- Communication schedules
Communication schedules
- "Fixed times" - four fixed time slots a day
- "Alternative schedules" - three additional comfortable data delivery planners
- Human time: cyclic frequency + adjustable cycle sync start
- Solar time: option of different communication timer during day and night
- Data: communication can be launched whenever a defined number of records collected by the logger
- One-off schedule: allows scheduling a single communication at particular date and time (e.g. data to be pushed to the server while performing a field check)
