WEB-BASED RECORDER CONFIGURATION UTILITY

摘要

A method and system for identifying a data recorder based upon a unique signature generated for the data recorder. Configuration information is received, the information specifying a plurality of data recording input parameters which are selected to facilitate use of the data recorder in a particular data recording application. A unique signature is generated according for the data recorder, the unique signature including a code which uniquely identifies the data recorder based on a transformation of the configuration information. The unique signature is stored for subsequent access or reference. To differentiate between similar makes and models of data recorders, at least a portion of the unique signature includes a unique core part number that is assigned to only one data recorder by, for example, the manufacturer of the data recorder.

1. A method for identifying a data recorder, comprising:
receiving, by a processing device, configuration information specifying a plurality of data recording input parameters which are selected to facilitate use of the data recorder in a particular data recording application; using a signature generating algorithm to generate with said processing device a unique signature for said data recorder, the unique signature comprising a code which uniquely identifies the data recorder based on a transformation of the configuration information; and storing, on a memory of said data recorder, the unique signature.
