Configuration Overview
All configurable parameters are stored in a configuration database. The parameters are grouped as given in Configuration Overview | Overview-of-configurable-parameters

The configuration of the system is given by a Sensor and height configuration set and the Global configuration consisting of Hardware, Global 1, Global 2 and Advanced.
System configuration sets allow for the quick adaptation of the system for different applications. Just select a configuration set and all relevant configuration parameters for an application are set in the system.
Database structure
Configuration of sensor and height parameters
Sensor and height configuration parameters are stored in records in the main list of the system configuration database. The number of records is not limited. A record is called a Sensor & height configuration set. Each configuration set in the main list contains fields with links to records in sub-lists of the system Sensor & height configuration database. A sub-list contains closely related configuration parameters. Examples of sub-lists: sub-list with records for Sensor Head configuration, sub-list with records for Application classes etc. The number of records in a sub-list is not limited. A record in a sub-list is called a configuration sub-set.
Configuration of global parameters
Additionally global configuration sub-lists are defined in the system. Global sub-lists contain system parameters with a scope not necessarily limited to an application. Examples of global sub-lists: Sub-list with records for installation parameters, sub-list with records for time zone etc. This sub-lists allow storing of different configurations to enable a quick and convenient change of configuration parameters. The global configuration contains links to records in global configuration sub-lists.
Explanation of system configuration database
To change the system configuration typically another ‘Sensor & height configuration set’ is selected.
