5.7 Analyser Overview
5.7.1 Power Button
The Power Button is used to power on and off the Wireless Mini Analyser unit. With the unit powered off, pressing
and holding the Power Button will cause the unit to turn on. Upon power on the unit will display a number of
information splash screens, before displaying the main Sensor Assignment screen. The Current batterystatus will
be shown as part of the power on sequence, so that the user can verifythe unit is suitably charged prior to use.
The unit is powered off bypressing and holding the Power Button for longer than 2 seconds.
5.7.2 Position Assignment Keys
The position assignment keys provide the operator with the means to associate a wheel sensor with a given location
on the vehicle. For theWireless Mini Analyser, the Position Assignment Keys are the only functional keys.
5.8 Connectivity Set Up
The Wireless Analyser set-up provides a point-to-point link between a single End Device (Wireless Mini Analyser)
and a single Co-ordinator (Wireless PC Module). In order that units may automatically connect at power on devices
contain details of the units to which they may connect. Each end device is configured with the MAC address of a
single co-ordinator node, whilst co-ordinator nodes contain a list of up to 8 allowable end devices.

At power on the co-ordinator node (Wireless PC Module) enters pairing mode (fast flashing Link LED). In this mode
it listens for anyprogrammed device that is in range.
When an end device node (Wireless Analyser Module) is powered on it also enters pairing mode (fast flashing Link
LED).
When a compatible co-ordinator node and end device node are operating in pairing mode are within range of
each other, a link will be established. When the devices pair the link status LED on both devices will change
from fast flashing to double blink to indicate this. Once established the link will remain valid until one or other
of the devices times out due to lack of data transfer activity on the radio link.
By default the co-ordinator node Link_timeout is 15s, whereas the end device Link_timeout is 10s. It is intentional
that the end device Link_timeout is shorter than that of the co-ordinator Link_timeout.
If the end device node fails for any reason, then the co-ordinator node will revert to pairing mode after its
Link_timeout expires. This will allow a new end device node that is in the co-ordinator’s allowed list to be accepted.
The link establishment strategy is fully fault tolerant, and will automatically handle power cycling of devices in any
order, and will automatically re-establish a link in the event of an end device failure. If the co-ordinator node is lost
through power failure, the link will automaticallyrestart once power is re-applied.
6 Operation
Operation of the Wireless Mini Analyser falls into two parts, collection of the wheel sensor information using the Mini
Analyser itself, and gathering of the information stored in the Mini Analyser via the wireless link to the host PC.
6.1 Wheel Assignment
The purpose of theWireless Mini Analyser is to provide a convenient method for the assignment of wheel sensors to
their appropriate location on the car, should the normal automated process fail for any reason.
In order to position a sensor the operator should LF trigger the sensor via one of the Position Assignment Keys on
the analyser [FL] [FR] [RL] [RR]. When the sensor responds, and the Mini Analyser receives the RF datagram the
data is automatically assigned it to the appropriate corner based on the Position Assignment Key used to trigger the
sensor. When a sensor is positioned successfully a splash screen is displayed, together with a beep and flashing of
the Tx/Rx LED.

If an RF datagram is not received within 500ms in response to the LF trigger, then the Mini Analyser will
automatically reattempt to trigger the sensor again after a further 500ms (i.e.: 1s between LF trigger attempts). The
Mini Analyser will make up to 5 retries to LF trigger the sensor. If no RF datagram has been received after the fifth
retry, a splash screen will be displayed, accompanied by a beep and flashing of the Tx/Rx LED.

6.2 Data Transfer
Transfer of the data collected by the Wireless Mini Analyser is achieved via the wireless serial link provided by the
Wireless PC Module andWireless Analyser Module. The wireless modules provide a transparent 19200-baud serial
link between the host PC and the Mini Analyser. When operating with the Wireless Modules the serial port should
be configured as follows:
Data Rate : 19200 baud
Data bits : 8
Parity : No
Stop bits : 1
Flow control : None
6.2.1 Command Transmission
Due to the single RF channel link between the host PC and the Wireless Mini Analyser, full-duplex serial
communication is not possible. The terminal interface within the Wireless Mini Analyser has been modified to
suppress the remote echo that is present in the standard firmware. As a result there is no requirement for the
terminal emulator,or other software, to waitfor an echocharacter from theWireless Mini Analyser.
If the Wireless Mini Analyser is used with a standard terminal program the entered characters will not be visible to
the user unless the terminal program is configured to provide a local echo. If remote echo suppression strategy is
not implemented then command transfers may fail due to clashes between transmitted and echoed characters on
the RF link.
6.2.2 ‘last’ Command
The current contents of the set buffer may be requested from the Mini Analyser at any time by use of the ‘last’
terminal command. In response to this command the Wireless Mini Analyser will transmit a fixed length data block
containing the collected data. As the Wireless Mini Analyser is generally intended for connection to a terminal
program, the data is transferred as ASCII characters.
The transferred data consists of 124 characters of header (2 lines of 62 characters), followed by 244 characters of
data (4 lines of 61 characters), regardless of sensor generation (G2 or G3). Appended to the collected data is a 7-
character line containing a checksum that is used to verify data integrity.
Pos Chan SerialNo Pact Tact RSSI RBL Mode RLRot TimeStamp (62 chars)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (62 chars)
0: -- 1402246943 1000 23 54 236 0x41 0x00 1360360 (61 chars)

3: -- 0 10000 -40 0 0 0x00 0x00 0 (61 chars)
0xf372 (7 chars)
The CRC is generated by the CCITT algorithm G(x) = x16 + x12 + x5+ 1 with a 0x0000 register preload value. The
CRC is calculated over the 244 characters of the data payload.
On receipt of the data block at the host PC the data should be validated by means of the CRC. If the CRC validates
correctly, then the host PC should complete the data transfer by sending an ‘ack’ packet back to the Wireless Mini
Analyser. An ‘ack’ packet consists of the characters ‘ack’ followed by a linefeed. If the CRC fails to validate, then the
data maybe re-requested via the ‘last’ command.
The complete sequence for the ‘last’ command is shown as follows:
At the USER1> prompt, the host PC sends the ‘last’ command
On receipt of the ‘last’ command the Wireless Mini Analyser responds with the data and CRC block, followed by a
USER1> prompt
The data block received by the PC is validated by a CRC check
If the check is successful the PC responds with an ‘ack’ message at the USER1> prompt

Note that as remote echo of data received at the Wireless Mini Analyser is suppressed due to the half-duplex
capability of the wireless link, the ‘last’ and ‘ack’ messages from the host PC will not appear on the terminal unless it
is configured to provide local echo.
In order to provide user feedback of reception of the ‘last’ command, the characters at the ends of the Wireless Mini
Analyser display screen toggle between up-arrow and down-arrow characters each time the command is received.

6.2.3 ‘setclear’ Command
The contents of the set buffer maybe cleared via the host PC at any time using the ‘setclear’ command.
This command is generally used once a complete set of wheel sensors has been learnt and transferred, in order to
clear the buffer ready for next use. In order for the host PC to verify that the command has been correctly received
and executed by the Wireless Mini Analyser it will respond with an ‘ack’ packet. An ‘ack’ packet consists of the
characters ‘ack’ followed by a linefeed.
On receipt and execution of the ‘setclear’ command the unit first switches to the battery status display screen, which
is splashed for 3 seconds. This allows the user to monitor the battery usage without the need to switch operating
modes.

6.2.4 ‘gencfg’ Command
By default the Wireless Mini Analyser is configured to auto detect and decode RF datagrams from Ge1, Gen2 and
Gen 3 sensors. In some situations the user may wish to configure the unit to receive only sensors of a specific type.
This can be achieved via the ‘gencfg’ terminal command.
Sending the ‘gencfg’ command with no argument at the USER1> prompt will result in the current setting, and
available options being returned bytheWireless Mini Analyser:
USER1> gencfg
Current sensor gen configuration 4
Sensor gen configuration 0 = GEN1
Sensor gen configuration 1 = GEN2
Sensor gen configuration 2 = GEN3
Sensor gen configuration 4 = Auto
USER1>
To modify the setting the ‘gencfg’ command should be sent with the appropriate argument. The Wireless Mini
Analyser will respond with a message indicating the change has taken place.
USER1> gencfg 2
Sensor gen configuration 2 set
If the terminal is not configured for local echo then the information sent at the USER1> prompt will not be visible on
the terminal.
6.3 Setup Menu
The setup menu gives access to status and configuration information for the Wireless Mini Analyser. Pressing the
power button and left arrow button at the same time accesses the setup menu. The setup menu is entered at the
<Power Settings> menu page. Other available pages are accessed using the Left Arrow / Right Arrow navigation
buttons.
The setup menu can be exited by pressing and holding the Left Arrow navigation button. This will move the user to
the top level menu.
The <Battery Status> page indicates the current state of charge of the Mini Analyser internal battery, and also allows
the user to turn on and off the display backlight . The backlight state is toggled by pressing the power button.
Pressing the power button at the <RF Receive> top level menu page returns the user to the default sensor display
page.
