The platform and metadata configuration is used to tell the 65R what aircraft it will be used with and where data sources (altitude, GPS, heading, etc) will come from.
Config File
The Config File field will display the currently config file. It also contains the change button used for changing the config file.
Depending on the current config file there will be limited config files displayed in the change menu. To display all configuration file options select the "All platform configurations" and/or the "Advanced configurations" radio buttons as shown in the advanced tab below.
Config Type
The Config Type is tied to the config file and gives more specific instruction about the metadata sources. The config names and data source information are listed below.

Configurations with 65R Sensor Internal IMU as an Attitude source does not contain yaw/heading information.
Trigger
The trigger field is used to set the trigger type and related settings.
Trigger Type
The Command trigger type is used when the trigger commands come directly from the aircraft autopilot.
No settings are provided for this mode. The sensor will only trigger if it receives a trigger command from MAVLink, the web page, Payload SDK, or the custom Sentera Protocol.
The External trigger type is used when an external source is used to trigger the 65R.
There are 4 options for the external trigger commands. See the details in the table below.
Rising/Falling Edge
Low/High PWM
Mode
Description
Rising Edge
The trigger input must be stable for 50 milliseconds to register as a commanded trigger. This is also known as the mechanical switch debounce period.
Falling Edge
The trigger input must be stable for 50 milliseconds to register as a commanded trigger. This is also known as the mechanical switch debounce period.
Low PWM
The lower value of the PWM TRIGGER input in milliseconds.
High PWM
The higher value of the PWM TRIGGER input in milliseconds.
The trigger input is the TRIGGER signal on connector J2.
