Parameters 

Description 

Sensor sens 

the Sensor object to be updated  

Double heartBeat 

How often the sensor communicates with the gateway if no activity recorded.  

Double awareStateHeartBeat 

How often the sensor communicates with the gateway while in Aware State.  

Integer assessmentsPerHeartBeat 

How many times between heartbeats a sensor will check its measurements against its thresholds to determine whether it will enter the Aware State. Warning if your sensor firmware is less than 2.5.2.0 Setting assessments greater than one will cause this sensor to not self elect follow a gateway to a new channel. if you reform your gateway you will need to power cycle the sensor for it to link on a new channel.  

Double minimumThreshold 

Any assessments below this Celsius value will cause the sensor to enter the Aware State.  

Double maximumThreshold 

Any assessments above this Celsius value will cause the sensor to enter the Aware State.  

Double DeltaThreshold 

Change in Celsius degrees to cause aware (0 = Off/Ignore)  

Integer displayTimeOut 

Length of time LCD display will stay on after turning on. (Seconds)  

Integer RearmTime 

Length of time before we allow a button press to send a new data point (Seconds)  

Integer failedTransmissionsBeforeLinkMode 

The number of transmissions the sensor sends without response from a gateway before it goes to battery saving link mode. In link mode the sensor will scan for a new gateway and if not found will enter battery saving sleep mode for 2 hours before trying to scan again. Lower number will allow sensors to find new gateways with fewer missed readings. Higher numbers will cause the sensor to hold it setting in a noisy RF environment better. (Zero will cause the sensor to never enter link mode. to find a new gateway channel the battery will have to be cycled out of the sensor.)
