Sutron 9210 - Appendix A: Telemetry Formats

APPENDIX A – TELEMETRY FORMATS
This appendix contains descriptions for each of the telemetry formats supported by Xpert
Iridium.
Handar Format
The Handar format is an ASCII, human readable format where sensors are separated by
<CRLF>, sensor data is separated with a space, and missing data is reported as “M”.
For example:
010034380517419:21:30G42+0NN155E9200070"
1.3 1.3 1.3 1.3
2.4 2.4 2.4 2.4
M 12.2 12.2 12.2 12.2 12.3 12.3 12.3
NFDRS and NIFC Formats
The NFDRS (National Fire Danger Rating System) and NIFC (National Interagency Fire
Center) formats produce reports of human readable ASCII values using SHEF codes as
labels for data.
The labels applied to measurement outputs are used to identify the data to include in the
report. The following table shows what labels are recognized be the NIFC and NFDRS
formatter. An “x” means the sensor label must appear in the setup for the formatter to
succeed. The items with no “x” are recognized and will be formatted, but are not
required.
