Reassigning and deactivating portable noise monitors
Who is this article for?ANOMS administrators who need to move a portable monitor to a new location or take it out of service.
Administrator access to the ANOMS Noise Analyst Workbench and the ANOMS Configurator is required.
Portable noise monitors move between locations and may have periods when they are not in use, requiring reassignment or deactivation to prevent unnecessary error messages.
Reassigning a portable monitor to a new location
Use this process when the portable monitor is active and will remain active at a different location.
To reassign the monitor:
- In the RMT Editor, select the portable monitor.
- From the Locations list, select the new location (create it first if needed, or choose an existing one).
- Click Set Location.
Deactivating a portable monitor
When a portable monitor is not being used for a period, deactivate it in two places: first in the RMT Editor, then in the ANOMS Configurator.
Note: Steps 3 to 5 are performed in the ANOMS Configurator, which is a separate application from the main ANOMS client.
To deactivate the monitor:
- In the RMT Editor, select the monitor.
- Click General RMT.
- Change the State to Inactive.
- In the ANOMS Configurator, expand the site.
- Expand Rovers.
- Select the rover.
- Select Noise Devices.
- Click Add/Remove EMU (or the required monitor type).
- Choose the device from the drop-down list.
- Clear the Device Active box (the box should be blank for inactive).
