Module Name

The text entered in this field shows up in the top left corner of the web site. It has no functional meaning, but can be used to distinguish between modules.

Data Interface

Selects the active data interface. This is the main interface for the module. Through this interface the Avisaro device receives commands or sends out messages. Or, through this interface data is send and received to be stored or forwarded wirelessly.

RS232/RS485: Sets primary RS232 or RS485 or RS422 interface

IIC: Interface is set to IIC (= I2C) slave. See  here for I2C master settings

SPI: SPI slave

CAN: Sets primary CAN interface

Ethernet: Sets to raw ethernet interface. For experts only.

TCP Socket: Sets to TCP socket interface

None: No interface is active

File: Outputs are written into a file.

Network Interface

The valid network interface option depend on the type of interface connected to the Avisaro device

WLAN: Only the wireless LAN interface is active (if present)

Ethernet: Only the LAN interface is active (if present)

None: No network interface becomes active (even if present)

Automatic: The network interface is automatically selected. The search is processed in the order 1) WLAN 2) LAN

Both: Both interfaces - WLAN and LAN - are active (if present)

 

Recovery Mode

There is a special feature to access a Avisaro device through a network interface, even if settings are messed up. See  here for details.

Scheduling Frequency

Avisaro system runs on a multitasking system. This setting defines the time in milliseconds each task is assigned. Setting '0' sets this value to 'dynamic'. The recommended value is '0'.

IP Bridging

If there are two network interfaces, the Avisaro module can work as a bridge between those two. Thus, network traffic is routed from one to the other interface.

SD/MMC Support

The SD card slot requires periodic processing resources even if no card is inserted. If no SD card slot is present, the 'SD Support' should be disabled.

 

 

Reboot Device

This reboots the device. Quite a few changes require a reboot in order to become effective.

Factory Settings

This resets all customer settings to default values. All entries such as selected data interface, WLAN and IP settings are reset. The stored script remains stored, however the automatic execution upon startup is disabled.
