Configuration Overview

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

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.
