If you need to connect your wired sensor(s) TD-100, TD-150, TD-500, TD-600, DGV-200, DU-180, ALS only to the i-5, i.e. there will be no GPS tracker or gateway to which the sensor(s) will be connected, you need to pair the sensor with the i-5 and then select the '''Active mode''' in the mode settings and configure the interval at which the sensor(s) will be polled (will be sent requests for data to).
[[File:D12e13.png|thumb]]
To pair a wired sensor (TD, DU-180, DGV-200, ALS) you need to tap '''Connect sensors''' (Fig. 21, '''2'''). Then press the  '''"+"''' (Рис. 14) button to add a new sensor (Fig. 22).

== <big>'''Deleting a sensor'''</big> ==
To delete, swipe the sensor to the left and click remove and then disconnect .

== <big>'''Tank calibration table for TD-BLE'''</big> ==
If you just pair BLE or wired TD sensors with the Indicator i-5, the latter will be displaying the level values from 1 to 1023 or from 1 to 4095. In order to get the Indicator display the liters/gallons, you need to save a tank calibration table in the i-5’s memory for every TD sensor.
 
'''Attention! The table must contain not more than 50 lines!'''


Then select the '''‘Wired’''' option, enter the network address (the value can be from 0 to 255) and press ‘Connect’ (Fig. 23). If the i-5 is not configured to operate in the RS-485 Active mode or if there is no GPS tracker/gateway or other device that could request the data from the sensor so that the i-5 could listen to the sensor’s response and show its reading, the level of the wired sensor will be displayed as 0 (Fig. 24).
Once the sensor(s) is paired with the Indicator, tap  '''Connect sensors''' (Fig. 45, '''2''') and then tap on the sensor to which you need to add the table (Fig. 46).
[[File:Imageghjghj.png|center|frameless|752x752px]]


The network address of the sensor can be configured in the Escort configurator for PC or in the app (Fig. 25 and Fig. 26).


If you need to connect several wired sensors, repeat the procedure described above.
Next, you can either import the table from the file saved on your smartphone or enter the table manually. To do so, open the sensor’s configuration and tap '''Start tank calibration''' (Fig. 47, '''1''').
[[File:Image,jhkh.png|center|frameless|750x750px]]


'''Attention! Every sensor connected via the RS-485 interface must have different network addresses.'''
[[File:Imagedasd.png|center|frameless|751x751px]]
[[File:Imagedasdssa.png|center|frameless|750x750px]]


To import the table from the file, select the '''Import from file option''' (Fig. 48). Then find the table you need on your smartphone and select it (Fig. 49). You can then modify the table should it be necessary. Press Save to save the table in the Indicator’s memory (Fig. 50). Repeat the procedure for each sensor.
[[File:Image23123.png|center|frameless|752x752px]]


'''Attention! All wired sensors that are not the wired Escort TD sensors (such as DU-180, DGV-200, ALS or the wired sensors of other brands that support the LLS data communication protocol) will still be treated as the TD sensors.'''


To make the i-5 send requests for data to the wired sensor(s) connected to it, open the mode settings (Fig. 27, '''4'''). The Passive mode is selected by default (Fig. 28).
You can modify the table if you press any cell (Fig. 51). Also, you can set the '''Portion''' (in liters/or gallons) and then add new lines to the table (Fig. 52). To delete any line, press and hold it then swipe to the left and tap '''Delete''' (Fig. 53).

Select the '''Active mode''' then enter the interval in seconds from 1 to 65 and press Set (Fig. 29). Then press '''Save''' to apply the changes (Fig. 30).
To enter the table manually, select the corresponding option on the screen shown on the Figure 48, then set the portion (Fig. 52), add as many portions as you need and edit the level values as per the table you have and need to upload into the Indicator’s memory (Fig. 51). You can delete any line by pressing, holding it and swiping to the left and then pressing '''Delete'''. Be sure to tap '''Save''' to save the table and/or any changes made to it

[[File:Imagedasd2341.png|thumb]]
To apply the table, be sure to activate the '''Use tank calibration table''' switcher (Fig. 54.1, '''2'''). To check the currently saved table tap:


[[File:Imagedasd213123.png|center|frameless|637x637px]]


After the Active RS-485 mode is selected and the interval is set, you will see the readings of your wired sensor(s) in the app (Fig. 31, 32) if it was connected to the i-5 in accordance with the wiring diagram (Fig. 33).
== <big>'''Retransmission of BLE sensors data'''</big> ==
[[File:Imagesdasd22.png|center|frameless|736x736px]]
The Indicator i-5 can retransmit the data it receives from the paired Escort BLE sensors (TD, TH, DU) to an external device (GPS tracker/gateway/other compatible device) via the RS-485 interface.


='''Wiring diagrams: i-5 and wired sensor(s) (RS-485) no tracker/gateway'''=
To enable the transmission of the BLE sensor’s data, go to the Connect sensors menu (Fig. 69, '''2'''), then select the sensor whose data you need transmitted to an external device and tap '''RS settings'''. (Fig 70, '''4''').

'''Attention! It is impossible to reuse the network addresses that are already occupied either by a different pair of parameters of the same sensor or a pair of parameters of another BLE or wired sensor.'''
If you need to connect the i-5 between a GPS tracker/gateway (or other compatible device) and a wired sensor (or several sensors), you need to connect the sensor as shown on the wiring diagram below, pair the sensor with the indicator and configure the Indicator i-5 to operate in the RS-485 '''Passive mode''' (the default mode).


The wiring diagram (Fig. 73) demonstrates how to connect the Indicator i-5, wired sensor(s) and an external device by means of the RS-485 interface. It is possible to use the i-5 in the Passive RS-485 mode so that it could listen to the responses of the wired sensors that they transmit upon receiving requests for data from an external device and respond to the requests sent by the external device with the BLE sensors’ data the i-5 receives via BLE connection.
