Max – This is the maximum reading recorded in the Period being displayed. On the Home Page this is the maximum
reading over the period of time from midnight to the timestamp of the latest reading received. In the summary pages
the maximum reading could be over a much longer period of time.
Min – This is the minimum reading recorded in the Period being displayed. On the Home Page this is the minimum
reading over the period of time from midnight to the timestamp of the latest reading received. In the summary pages
the minimum reading could be over a much longer period of time.
Mesh Network – The technology used in the RF500 system to increase wireless reception reliability. Transmitters
are setup to be either part of a Backbone or to be a regular transmitter. Those designated as part of the Backbone
remain in RF contact with each other. By doing this the system is able to dynamically adapt to changing conditions
automatically ensuring the integrity of the system at all times.
No Signal – The Gateway has not received any signal from a transmitter for a long time. Usually 1 hour or 5 times the
radio-rate whichever is longest.
Period – A continuous session of logged records. Any break in monitoring will result in the creation of a new logging
Period.
PST – Precision Semiconductor Technology or Thermistor, a sensor for measuring temperature.
Radio-Rate – The rate at which a transmitter enables its radio to contact the Gateway. The default is once every 15
minutes.
Restricted User – A user of RF500 who can only perform a selection of functions.
Self-Healing – As part of the Mesh technology the system is able to adapt automatically if one part of the system is
damaged, i.e. Radio Contact is lost with part of the Backbone. Only regular transmitters directly reliant on the faulty
part of the system will be affected with the rest of the transmitters simply finding alternative routes for the data.
