SETUPSENSOR

Add a new sensor object

Platform: 

OEM719, OEM729, OEM7500, OEM7600, OEM7700, OEM7720, PwrPak7, CPT7, CPT7700

Use this command to add a new sensor object to the system. A sensor object consists of an ID, an Event_Out line and an Event_In line. This is intended as a simplified way to set up triggering to and from a sensor rather than configuring all connections independently. It also allows for event pulses to be sent to a sensor at specific GPS times (see the TIMEDEVENTPULSE command).

The Event_In and Event_Out options available are dependent on the receiver used in the SPAN system. For information about the Event lines supported, see the Strobe Specifications for the receiver in Technical Specifications.

MARK4 is available only on SPAN systems with an OEM7600, OEM7700 or OEM7720 receiver.
