Option 7
This option prompts you to enter the required radio lead-in time (in milliseconds) and the address of the base
station when using an external data radio on the RS232 port. The leader time is very dependent on the type
of data radio used and also the radio network (e.g: whether there are repeaters etc). The default is zero, as
many data radios apply lead-in time automatically. The base address is also normally set to zero.
> Radio Leader(ms)=
…
> Base Address=
Option 8
By using this terminal mode, it is possible to perform two distinct functions depending on the state of the
internal modem. If the terminal is available, this message is displayed.
> Terminal Mode active. Press <ESC> and then <Enter> to exit.
If the internal modem is powered down then terminal mode is unavailable and this message will appear.
> Wireless module inactive. Terminal unavailable.
Assuming the modem is active, the two scenarios are as follows:
If the internal modem is powered up, but a GPRS/CDMA-1X or CSD session is not in progress, then
it is possible to interact with the modem using the standard AT command set.
If the internal modem is powered up and a GPRS/CDMA-1X or CSD session is currently in progress,
then it is possible to interact with a terminal at the remote end of the connection.
When using transparent terminal mode you must press the <Enter> key after each command or message
you wish to send. Press ESC then Enter to exit the modem terminal session and return to the communication
menu.
Option 9
SDI-12 Terminal (iRIS 320 / iRIS 320V only):
The SDI-12 terminal mode allows direct access to instruments connected to the SDI-12 interface. This is
useful when a manual check or changes need to be made, such as address changes, scale factors etc.
Knowledge of SDI-12 commands is required to make best use of this feature.
> SDI-12 Terminal mode active. Press <ESC Enter> to exit
NOTE: This menu option will only appear if one or more sensors have a source set to SDI-12.
