The Receiver module must be running continuosly to enable updating
of data from the data collection system to the Data Socket database.
Changing the Configuration
Changes in the configuration of YourVIEW Receiver must be made
while the Receiver is running. However, the changes will not be
effective until you restart the Receiver.
To edit the Receiver settings, click on the field to be edited. When you
have modified a field, confirm the change by pressing ENTER. The
modification(s) will be ignored until you have pressed ENTER.
When you start the YourVIEW software for the first time, we
recommend that you go through the following checklist (especially if
you want to change the default settings). After that, you should stop
the Receiver by clicking the Stop button, especially if you have made
any changes to the default settings.
1. Check the communication port parameters. Make sure that the
communications parameters set for the data collection system
also correspond to those set in YourVIEW Receiver. The default
parameters are: 9600, 8, 1, N.
2. Check the start and end characters.
3. Set the timeout interval to be slightly longer than the data
message transmission interval in the datalogger or sensor.
4. Check the Data Socket and Clock parameters. By default,
internal PC clock is used.
The settings for the Receiver module are saved in a file called
receiver.cfg.
NOTE The old file is overwritten when changes are saved. Therefore, make
a copy of the original file for backup purposes.
