Beacon Interval sets the interval (in seconds) on which the datalogger will

broadcast beacon messages on the port specified by Selected Port.

Verify Interval specifies the interval (in seconds) at which the datalogger

will expect to have received packets from neighbors on the port specified by
Selected Port. A value of zero with automatically result in one of two
outcomes:

o a five-minute verify interval if the neighbor also has 0 set as the Verify

Interval argument, or

o the verify interval of the neighbor will be adopted if it is non-zero.

Neighbors List, or perhaps more appropriately thought of as the "allowed

neighbors list", displays the list of addresses that this datalogger expects to
find as neighbors on the port specified by Selected Port. As items are selected
in this list, the values of the Begin and End range controls will change to
reflect the selected range. Multiple lists of neighbors can be added on the
same port.

Begin and End Range are used to enter a range of addresses that can either

be added to or removed from the neighbors list for the port specified by
Selected Port. As users manipulate these controls, the Add- and Remove-
range buttons are enabled or disabled depending on the relative values in the
controls and whether the range is present in or overlaps with the list of
address ranges already set up.

Add Range will cause the range specified in the Begin and End range to be

added to the list of neighbors to the datalogger on the port specified by
Selected Port. This control is disabled if the end range value is less than the
begin range value.

Remove Range will remove the range specified by the values of the Begin

and End controls from the list of neighbors to the datalogger on the port
specified by Selected Port. This control is disabled if the range specified is
not present in the list.

• Help is displayed at the bottom of the Deployment tab. When finished,

Apply the settings to the datalogger. A summary message is presented. Save
or Print the settings to archive or to use as a template for another datalogger.

Cancel causes the datalogger to ignore the changes. Read File provides the

opportunity to load settings saved previously from this or another similar
datalogger. Changes loaded from a file will not be written to the datalogger
until Apply is clicked.
