How do I change the Transmission Frequency of a tBase?

To avoid confusion with data acquisition channels in LabChart, the term Channel within ConfigSoft will now be referred to as Transmission Frequency.

 

It is recommended that any changes to tBase Transmission Frequency are recorded for future reference.

 

  1. Ensure the Configurator is connected to your computer and ConfigSoft is open
  2. In ConfigSoft, click the tBase button in the main menu or choose the tBase tab
  3. Enter the Serial Number of the tBase (found on the front and rear of the tBase)
  4. Enter the current Transmission Frequency of the tBase. If this is the first use it will be Setup by default.
  5. If the current Transmission Frequency is unknown, click Search for tBase and the Configurator will search and report the Transmission Frequency for the Serial Number entered

 

 

  1. In the Configure your tBase section, enter or select a new Transmission Frequency (1-40) for the tBase. This should be the same as that previously selected for a telemeter if you are pairing for recording
  2. Click Go to activate the new Transmission Frequency and OK to confirm your choice

 

 

  1. The tBase status light will slow flash red during the change
  2. After a few seconds a message will appear confirming the change

 

  1. If a telemeter is paired on the same Transmission Frequency the tBase status light will change to green. The telemeter and tBase are now able to communicate for data collection
