CHAPTER 4

CONFIGURING TELEMETRY OPTIONS

This chapter provides instructions on how to configure different non-
TCP/IP telemetry options, that is, modems and satellite transmitters.

Introduction to Modem Control

Modem control provides means for transferring data reports from a
weather station using the following media:

-

Public telephone network (PSTN)

-

Cellular network. The functionality has been tested with GSM.

-

Internet using GPRS as media between a weather station and an
Internet service provider (ISP).

-

Other devices using standard AT commands. However, the
usability for such purposes has to be checked and tested case by
case.

Modem control also provides the possibility to remotely control and
configure the operation of a weather station.

NOTE

This section only describes the configuration of non-TCP/IP-based
telemetry. For configuration instructions for TCP/IP-based
communication devices available in Lizard and QML logger software
versions 6.00 and later, refer to

Chapter 5, Configuring TCP/IP-Based

Telemetry, on page 201
