RF Monitor Software

Channel securization

In order to access this option you may need to upgrade RFMonitor. The latest version is available on our website (RF Monitor update).

Please check that the firmware of your RF-to-USB key is equal to or greater than 19.0.0

Make sure that the firmware version of your Logger is equal to or greater than :
  • 2.1.2 for the LOG
  • 3.0.0 for the LGR, LGS, LGW, LGP
  • 2.0.0 for the RPT
  • 2.0.0 for the LOM, LOP

Secure the channel of the loggers first

Click on the icon “Tools”/ Configuration on the line of the product you want to update (or right click on the line of the logger).

  • Select  RF Settings

When starting, the working channel of  a logger is channel 1. You may modify the working channel if needed.

  • Select Active for the Canal securization
  • Write a word or a little sentence
  • Click on Send to valide the modifications
Wait for a radio transmission or pass the magnet so that the modification is taken into account.

Note : for an optimal performance we advise you not to change the parameters of the output power and sensitivity.

Once the logger’s canal is securized, a small padlock will be displayed on the line.

Repeat exactly the same process to securize all your loggers.

NOTE : Once the working channel has been modified, you must change the working channel of the key. The key and the Logger must always be on the same channel to communicate. The key must take the channel of the Logger.

  • Select the Key control tab
  • Right-click on the line of the key
  • Select Configure key
