condition or multiple conditions that must be present to
trigger the secondary rate.
Note: When using secondary rates, the selected
measurements are compared to the equation whenever
its measurement is taken, whether it is a Primary or
Secondary data storage rate.
After setting up the Data Storage rates, click OK to accept the
settings, and Apply (F9) the new settings to the module.
Pushed Data
Use this window to configure the 2103 Modem Module, or the
2105 or 2103 Cellular Modem Modules, to push data to a
Flowlink Pro database server.
Modems can send measurement data at a Primary and
Secondary rate. Primary rates are fixed intervals at which the
module will send all measurement data to the database server.
Secondary rates allow you to change the pushed data rate if the
measurements meet your defined conditions.
Secondary rates are advantageous when you wish to examine
measurement data in greater detail when a significant event
occurs. Until the event occurs, the module pushes all site data at
the primary rate to conserve power and modem usage. When the
event occurs, the module preempts the primary rate and pushes
data at the secondary rate. The secondary rate continues until
the condition is no longer met (with hysteresis). The examples
below illustrate two ways that secondary rates can be used.
• Push data more frequently if the flow rate is greater than
or equal to 100 gpm.
• Don’t push data (primary rate OFF) until level is greater
than or equal to 1 ft.
To configure pushed data:
1. Select a primary rate from the pull-down list. Note that
selecting “Off” only disables the primary rate.
2. Select a secondary rate from the “Push data every” pulldown
list. Note that selecting “Off” disables the
secondary rate.
3. Set an equation that defines “When” the data should be
pushed at the secondary rate. This equation defines the
condition or multiple conditions that must be present to
trigger the secondary rate.
Note: When using secondary rates, the selected
measurements are compared to the equation whenever
measurement is taken at the data storage rate, and at
the Parameter Measurement Interval on the Equation
Builder window
4. Enter the Flowlink Pro Server Information. If using a
2103 Telephone Modem, Select the Modem Listener
Option, then enter the telephone number to dial into the
Flowlink Pro Server. If using a 2103c or 2105c Cellular
Modem, select the IP Listener option, then enter the
Flowlink Pro Server IP address and Server Port Number.
