Location
e Location column displays a description, name or coordinates that represent the current
sensor location. Some sensors can store location strings within their memory and can be
queried by Collector. For sensors that don’t have such a capability, you can input the loca-
tion value into Collector.
Figure 3.4 – Right Half of Sensor List
Figure 3.4 is a close-up view of the right half of the sensor list. e following sections ex-
plain the rest of the columns in the sensor list, from le to right.
Description
e Description column displays optional text that further identies the sensor. Some
sensors can accept this information, entered directly into the device, then store it in their
memories. en, Collector can query the sensor and obtain the description. For sensors
that don’t have such a capability, you can input the location value into Collector.
Custom
e Custom column can be used for additional information. e Custom column is par-
ticularly useful for sensors that natively support location and description elds in memory,
and therefore cannot be altered within Collector.
Interval (Intrvl)
e Intrvl column displays how oen, in seconds, the sensor is collecting and binning data.
Frequency (Fq)
e Fq column shows how oen, in seconds, Collector is collecting data from the sensor. If
the value shown is labeled “Adv,” the collection interval was set using an advanced schedule
that may not be measured in seconds.
