Observation mode

For efficient field work, observation mode enables an on-site technician to quickly view measurements and upload data to Cloud at accelerated rates. Activate observation mode by either using NFC Connect in CampbellGo for a direct connection to an Aspen 10, or by pressing the Power button on the Aspen 10. Upon entering observation mode, the following things occur:

  • The Aspen 10 wakes from its low-power mode.

  • The internal cellular modem turns on and makes a connection to a cellular network.

  • If a recipe is needed it is retrieved from Cloud.

  • Measurements are taken at a faster rate. See Recipes for sensor specific information.

  • Data is stored to the Observations table and published to Cloud.

Observation mode is automatically exited by closing the Go direct connection or after about ten minutes of inactivity.
