Originate Calls
Check this box if the
CNI2
is allowed to originate CSD or I
nternet connections. This allows the
CNI2
to call in at regularly scheduled times or whenever an alarm condition occurs. When using
the Internet for communications the
CNI2
acts as a “client”.
It can only originate calls to the
data collection system.
Allow Connection Requests
This setting allows the CNI2 to act as an Internet “server”, allowing it to be contacted via the
Internet. When this box is checked the
Server Mode
configuration
screen is used to define
specific server features.
IMPORTANT NOTE
The
Allow Connection Requests
feature requires the cellular radio to be powered up more
frequently. This will have a great impact on battery life. A permanent power source such as
solar or AC is recommended if you wish to use this option.
Respond to
Voice Calls
/ Respond to SMS
“Paging” is a mechanism that causes the
CNI2
to call back to the Primary Destination on
demand. You can
page the
CNI2
by
call
ing it
s
cellular
voice number or by
send
ing
it a text
message using
SMS
, or
short
message service
.
Your cellular account may not offer voice or
SMS service.
In addition to paging, i
f the
CNI2
is configured for CSD mode the
n
checking
the
Respond to
Voice Calls
box will allow the
CNI2
to answer incoming CSD calls from the central office.
IMPORTANT N
OTE
The

s are
NOT
recommended for
battery
-
powered operation
. These options require the cellular radio to be powered up at all times,
which will quickly drain the
CNI2
’s batteries.
A permanent power source suc
h as solar or
AC is recommended if you wish to use these options.
Time Interval Size
You can configure the CNI2 to count pulses from up to 6 sources
. Pulses are counted
over a
specific time int
erval and the total for that period is saved as
one record
.
It then starts the
counting process over for the next time interval and this process continues indefinitely. The
time interval can be 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30 or 60 minutes
(anything evenly divisible into
60)
. A shorter time period allows you
to observe small changes with more detail. But it also
consumes
storage space
more quickly, causing the
CNI2
to need to communicate with the data
collection system more frequently
so that older data is not lost
. This can have an impact on
both battery li
fe and the cost of the cellular service.
The
CNI2
has the capacity to save a total of 30,000 records before it starts to overwrite the
oldest records. These are divided equally between all active pulse
-
counting channels. If only
one channel is used for
pulse
-
counting then all 30,000
record
locations will be used for that
