Data Collection & Transmission Setting: | |
Regular-Interval Mode: - GPS interval: 5 min ~1 day - ENV interval: 5 min ~1 day - ODBA interval: 10 min/30 min - ACC interval: 25 Hz, 3 seconds in every 10 min (by default) - Transmission interval: 5 min ~1 day Above ranges are selectable on website data platform or App. Contact us if other settings are required. |
|
On-Time Mode: - Transmission: Up to three times at fixed hours per day (such as 13:00/14:00/18:00) - GPS / ENV / BHV: Regular-interval model or on-time model follow each transmission |
|
Sleep Mode This mode is to deactivate certain type of data collection for: - a regular period each day (a maximum of 16 hours) |
|
Intelligent Frequency Optimization & Flight Detection (BOOST) | |
The BOOST function intelligently increases data collection & transmission frequency when the charging condition is good or the bird is flying. The default setting is as below: |
|
Frequency Optimization: | Every 10 min/1 min |
Flight Detection: | Every 20 sec |
With BOOST, the device portrays detailed movement tracks without manual intervention and avoids the possibility of battery drain due to radical settings in bad weather. | |
