9.2 PROGRAM INSTRUCTION 123 - TGT-1
AUTO SETUP
9.2.1 Functional Description
The program instruction P123 is used for
automatic setup of the TGT-1. This instruction
is used in place of the Star Pound Mode (*#).
P123 will transfer all the information needed to
properly transmit data via the TGT-1 satellite
transmitter. The information is assigned by
NESDIS. See table 9.2-1 for a complete
description of each parameter of P123.
P123 is only available on CR10X dataloggers
with version 1.6 operating system or later,
CR500 dataloggers with version 1.4 or later,
and all CR23X and CR510 dataloggers.
NOTE: P123 should only be run once.
See program example for one way to run P123.
Some guidelines for using P123:
1. Before the datalogger is connected to the
TGT-1, the datalogger clock must be set to
“Coordinated Universal Time”.
2. P123 should only be run once, usually the
first time through Program Table 1.
3. P123 will not execute properly if the keypad
is in communications with the datalogger. If
the keypad is connected to the logger, the
keypad display must show “LOG 1” or
“LOG12”.
4. P123 will not execute properly if the
datalogger is connected to a PC.
5. P123 requires about 8 seconds to execute.
To avoid table overrun errors, program
table execution rate should not be less then
10 seconds.
6. After the initiation of P123 the datalogger
and TGT-1 should not be interrupted for 1
minute or 2 times the execution rate,
whichever is longer.
7. The hardware must be completely setup
before power is applied to the system.
