This page introduces sensor configuration.

All our RF modules (sensors & IoT Gateway) are configured by sending them configuration commands. You can use the rf_config tool to send configuration changes to the RF module simply by addressing the device_id of the target RF module followed by the configuration change. For example the following command changes the cycle interval of device 75 to 10 minutes:

python rf_config.py 75 INTVL010 

The sensor will echo back the command (ie: a75INVTL010) if the change was successful or it will send an error (ie: a75ERR) if there was a problem with the command.

In this section of the documentation we will cover the most common configurations in detail. The full list of configurations can be found in the message reference.
