Installation and Operation Instructions for the Point Sensor Analog transmitter.

Point Six, Inc.

Wireless Analog Sensor Model Point Sensor Analog

Installation and Operation Instructions

The Point Sensor Analog wireless analog level sensor transmits a digital value

representing either 0-20 MilliAmp, 0-5Volt or 0-10Volt levels and a unique serial

number to a 418 MHz receiver. The Point Sensor Analog is enclosed in a high impact

ABS enclosure for direct surface mounting in the environment to be measured. Point

Sensor Analog is battery operated

Application: Apply the sensor to a surface to with double-sided adhesive tape. Make

sure that the side labeled with FCC ID is visible and away from any metal surfaces.

Service Function: The wireless analog sensor has an installation mode switch. A

momentary push of this switch will start the convert/transmit cycles. When new and until

this button is pushed the Point Sensor Analog will not transmit. The Point Sensor

Analog will transmit a special installation status mark in the data packet immediately

after the installation/start switch is pushed. After the start a push of the installation

switch will result in the immediate transmission of data and ID and installation status

mark.

Battery: A 3.6 Volt lithium battery powers the Point Sensor Analog wireless sensor.

The battery will last for more than 10 years in the idle state (as shipped from the

manufacturer). The Point Sensor Analog will transmit data for as long as 10 years at a

rate of once each minute once started. The Point Sensor Analog is completely covered

with a water resistant conformal coating to protect the electronics from the environment

and condensation. The user may replace the battery. The Point Sensor Analog may be

placed in a quiescent state (battery life greater than 10 years) by holding the installation

switch closed for more than 4 seconds.

THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES, OPERATION IS

SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS: (1) THIS DEVICE MAY

NOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE AND (2) THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPT

NY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED, INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY

CAUSE UNDESERED OPERATION

Point Sensor Analog Data Format

The Point Six, Inc. 418 MHz wireless sensors require a compatible receiver with the

ability to receive, error check and provide RS232 and RS422/485 interface. This

document describes the data format provided by the HA8-wow 418 MHz. Receiver.

The transmit packet from a receiver is approximately 15 milliseconds in duration and

consists of 13 bytes of data:

1-byte ID/Mode field

8-byte serial number

2-byte analog level as a 12-bit number

2-byte CRC-16 error check

The HA8-wow receiver processes this packet. The receiver performs a CRC-16 error

check on the packet. If the data is not accurate it is discarded. When a packet is received

that is error free it is converted to a 29-character packet and transmitted out the serial port

at 19,200 Baud. The data is transmitted serially in ASCII Hex format and terminated with

a CR character. This format requires two bytes for each byte of data; 14 data bytes x

2=28 plus the CR is 29 characters. See the HA8-wow specification for details.

The resulting binary data format of the packet is:

1-byte ID field this field will contain a byte whose LSBit indicates the service

state of the transmitter, 0=normal, 1=service mode.

8-byte serial# this field contains the serial number of the 1-Wire sensor.

2-byte data this field contains the analog data as a 12-bit

number stored MSB first. A value of 0FFF is a full scale reading

and represents 20 milliamp. A zero input level will result in a

reading of 0000.

2-byte CRC-16 this is the originally received data packet CRC as described above.

1-byte checksum the checksum is a mod 256 sum of all the ASCII character values

in the response but does not include the CR

FCC ID: M5ZANA

Example:

C1283FA60B000000EC000F8AD0AB<CR>

This field is the mode indicator, the LS-bit which indicates the

service state of the transmitter, C1=normal, C0=service mode.

C1283FA60B000000EC000F8AD0AB <CR>

This field is the unique serial number of the 1-Wire sensor.

C1283FA60B000000EC000F8AD0AB <CR>

This is analog data field stored MSByte first as a 12-bit number in

a 16-bit field. The number shown is 000F (15) or 15/4096 of full

scale. If this is a 0-20 milliamp input this would be .07 MilliAmp.

If the input is 0-5 Volts this would be 0.0183 Volts.

C1283FA60B000000EC000F8AD0AB <CR>

This field is the CRC-16 error check as was originally received and

checked. This CRC is over the first 11 bytes of the packet starting

with the mode flags and ending with inclusion of the temperature

data.

C1283FA60B000000EC000F8AD0AB <CR>

This field is the mod 256 sum of all the ASCII character values in

the response but does not include the <CR>.

C828AE9105000000AA2D2DD474AB <CR>

This is the CR terminator, 0Dhex.

FCC Radio Frequency Interference Statement

Point Sensor Analog FCC ID: M5ZANA

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for

a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15, Subpart B, of the FCC Rules. This

equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not

installed and used in accordance with the instructions, it may cause interference

to radio communications.

The limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against such

interference in a residential situation. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does

cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by

turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the

interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna of the affected radio or television

Increase the separation between the equipment and the affected receiver.

Connect the equipment and the affected receiver to power outlets on separate

circuits.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

MODIFICATIONS

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Point Six Inc.could void

the user's authority to operate the equipment.
