I - Image

. This command allows the user to view the current voice image

file that is loaded on the Vosponder. Entering a “V” will display the voice
image text string. (M)aster is only used with the master mode option and does
not apply to CSI datalogger users with the Vosponder in slave mode. For more
information on the anatomy of a voice image file, see Appendix E.

T – X (Transmit)

. This command allows the user to view the current

two-way radio transmit hang time and delay and channel busy sense settings.
The example screen shows the Vosponder’s default settings for these
parameters. Only in special cases should a user ever need to modify these
settings. Changes should never be made to these settings without first
consulting a technical support representative. The only exception to this is if
the user fully understands the ramifications of making changes to these
settings.

A - Address

. This command allows the user to view the current SDI-12

Mode, the assigned SDI-12 address, and the assigned DTMF code. In the
example screen below the Vosponder has been set to the SDI-12 “S” (slave)
mode, has been assigned the number “1” as the SDI-12 address, and has a
DTMF code of “123”.

V - Data Values

. This command allows the user to view the most recent

string of data values received by the Vosponder from the datalogger. The data
values shown in the example screen below are test values that come preloaded
on the Vosponder. If the Vosponder has never received data from a datalogger,
or has been reset, these are the data values that will be used when the (S)peak
command is issued from the main menu. Once the Vosponder has received a
data string from the datalogger, the numbers on this screen would reflect the
values that the Vosponder is receiving.

This feature is useful for checking the communication link between the
datalogger and the Vosponder. It allows the user to make sure that the
Vosponder is getting data values in the expected order from the datalogger. If
