Can anyone shed light on the timing and format of the various "heartbeat" signals generated by the DS10A sensor.
I have seen some docs on the WRF800 site regarding generation of the security code itself but nothing on the low battery or communication failure signals. I had an event set to monitor the DS10A when it changed to "normal" and that event seemed to trigger repeatedly (without change to the sensor contacts) at some time interval. I am assuming these lost comm and low battery features are based upon the absence of reception of some sort of heartbeat signal (possibly the repeated sending of the "normal" signal).
I am trying to troubleshoot a sensor that tends to drop out (comm failure) or hang in the alert mode fairly often. The sensor is fairly distant from the WRF800 and is equipped with a passive repeater antenna (18.25in wire) and reports through a PSX01 repeater. The problem has not stayed consistent enough to isolate the cause yet and the detailed debug info has not helped so far.
Also, is there any documentation available on the Security Monitor device the ACRF plugin creates with a location of ACRF Plugin. Should there be one for each sensor or does a single device monitor the status of all security sensors installed? What are the functions of the pull down controls?
Thanks.
