Frequently Asked Question
version | Provides firmware version information |
| clock | Provides clock information used in advance troubleshooting |
reset | Performs a soft reset of the detector |
| initialize | Factory reset's all detector settings |
| components | Lists internal component states |
| gps | Toggles the GPS locator on and off. While on the locator will try and get a GPS fix on the detector. The process could take a while to complete. The detector will try to get as accurate a fix as possible WARNING - GPS locating consume a lot of power, so do not perform this with a detector who has a low battery. You should wait until the battery level is high to perform GPS location |
| gps fix | Provides the last fix the detector was able to make on its position |
| gps fix reset | Clears the last fix the detector was able to make on its position |
| gps settings | Lists current settings for the GPS module |
gps wake $seconds | Sets the maximum time that the detector should try and get a precise GPS fix on itself. Once this time has been reached, the GPS module will automatically turn off $seconds - the maximum time, in seconds, that the GPS module should run before automatically turning off |
| radio status | Displays the current status of the radio module |
| radio wake | Forces the radio to wake up, turning on the receiver |
| radio sleep | Forces the radio to go to sleep, turning off the receiver |
| radio addr | Provides the current address configured on the radio |
| led | Toggles the LEDs to be on/off. The LEDs will automatically turn off after the configured wake time |
| led wake $seconds | Sets the maximum time the LEDs will be on $seconds - the maximum time, in seconds, that the LEDs are on before automatically turning off |
| led settings | Lists current settings for the LED module |
| pwr | Displays the state of the power system |
| pwr settings | Lists current settings for the power module |
| pwr components | Lists current state of each power component |
| pwr verbose | Turns on verbose mode which allows you to see power system state changes in chat for diagnostics NOTE - this mode does not survive reboots |
| pwr state $state | Force power management into a specific state $state - the state to put the management system into. available states are: low-rest, low-test, high-settle, charging, priming-on, priming-off |
| pwr batt low $mvolts | Sets the battery low millivolt level. This affects how the power management system charges the battery $mvolts - the millivolt level that the battery would be considered low power |
| pwr batt high $mvolts | Sets the battery high millivolt level. This affects how the power management system charges the battery $mvolts - the millivolt level that the battery would be considered high power, or fully charged WARNING - do not set this value without consulting an expert. You could cause the battery to become unstable and cause catastrophic failure to the detector which may also cause harm to anything near the detector. |
| pwr solar on | Overrides power management and turns the solar input on NOTE - does not survive reboots |
| pwr solar off | Overrides power management and turns the solar input off NOTE - does not survive reboots |
| pwr solar auto | Turns power management of this component back on |
| pwr solar settle $seconds | Sets the minimum number of seconds to wait while the solar input is too high for safely charging the system $seconds - number of seconds to wait, at a minimum, before checking to see if solar charging is safe to use again |
| pwr solar rest $seconds | Sets the rest time before the system checks solar input to see if it is able to charge properly $seconds - the number of seconds to wait before checking the solar input usefulness |
| pwr solar test $seconds | Sets the length of time that the system tests to see if the solar input is good enough to charge the system $seconds - the number of seconds to test the solar input |
| pwr scaps on | Overrides power management and turns the super capacitors on NOTE - does not survive reboots |
| pwr scaps off | Overrides power management and turns the super capacitors off NOTE - does not survive reboots |
| pwr scaps auto | Turns power management of this component back on |
| pwr scaps primeon $seconds | Sets the maximum number of seconds used to prime the super capacitors $seconds - the maximum number to prime |
pwr scaps primeoff $seconds | Sets the wait time before the system start priming the super capacitors again $seconds - the number of seconds to wait before priming the super capacitors again |
| pwr tt $seconds | Sets the minimum transition time required between state changes $seconds - the number of seconds each state much elapse before it can change to another state NOTE - does not apply to all states |
| pwr pump on | Overrides power management and turns the charge pump on NOTE - does not survive reboots |
| pwr pump off | Overrides power management and turns the charge pump off NOTE - does not survive reboots |
pwr pump auto | Turns power management of this component back on |
det | Displays the current magnitude values of the magnetometers |
| det cal | Force the magnetometers to calibrate to their environment (degauss or zeroing out the magnetic field) |
det settings | Lists current settings for the detection system |

| det $mag | Displays information about a specific magnetometer $mag - the magnetometer to enable. Can be: m1 or m2 |
| det $mag settings | Displays settings configured for a specific magnetometer $mag - the magnetometer to enable. Can be: m1 or m2 |
| det event $event | Toggles processing of specific events (turns them on/off) $event - the event to toggle. can be: speed, length, occupancy, detection, wrongway, none (turn all off), all (turn all on) |
| det delay $mseconds | Configures the minimum time required between detections $mseconds - the number of milliseconds that must elapse before the next detection can trigger |
| det dwell $mseconds | Configures the minimum dwell time required for the detector to trigger an occupancy event $mseconds - the number of milliseconds that must elapse before it is allowed to trigger |
| det mode $mode | Sets the detection algorithm used $mode - the algorithm to use. can be: abs (absolute change) or rel (relative change) |
