    1 The factory-set (in the program that shipped from SRI) default transmission period is one day.  Twenty-four hours from the moment the datalogger is powered-up the first transmission will occur.  This is defined by the program variable ''xmit_period'', which may be changed by either loading a program with a different default value, or changing the value in the running program.

    3  * Altering the running program's value will not affect the default value should the datalogger be re-energized.  If the power is cycled the default value will take effect.

    5   Following transmissions will occur every xmit_period. 
     5The ''xmit_period'' may also be changed by base receiving end.  Following the reception of a complete dataset the base station may upload a new ''xmit_period''.  This allows the base station to control, to some degree, the power consumption.  This is a synchronous activity; a successful transmission must be initiated by the datalogger for the base station to modify the '''next''' xmit_period.

    7  * See also [wiki:"PaddySullivanTreeGrowth_XmitPeriod" Setting the transmission period] 
     7When the datalogger receives a new xmit_period it performs some basic checking to ensure a proper value.  The xmit_period must be a whole hour, must be at least one hour, and must be less then fourteen days.
