register a tag with motus

Description

Usage

motusRegisterTag(projectID, mfgID, manufacturer = "Lotek", type = "ID",
  codeSet = "Lotek4", offsetFreq, period, periodSD, pulseLen, param1, param2,
  param3, param4, param5, param6, paramType = 1, ts, nomFreq, dateBin, model,
  ...)

Arguments

`projectID:`	integer scalar; motus internal project ID
`mfgID:`	character scalar; typically a small integer; return only records for tags with this manufacturer ID (usually printed on the tag)
`type:`	character scalar; tag type; "ID" or "beeper"
`codeSet:`	character scalar; manufacturer's codeset label, when `type` is "ID"
`offsetFreq:`	numeric scalar; offset of tag frequency from nominal, in kHz
`period:`	numeric scalar; repeat interval of tag transmission, in seconds.
`periodSD:`	numeric scalar; standard deviation of period
`pulseLen:`	numeric scalar; length of pulses emitted by tag, in milliseconds
`param1:`	numeric scalar; first measured tag parameter; for Lotek coded ID, this is the first interpulse gap
`param2:`	numeric scalar; second measured tag parameter; for Lotek coded ID, this is the second interpulse gap
`param3:`	numeric scalar; third measured tag parameter; for Lotek coded ID, this is the third interpulse gap
`param4:`	numeric scalar; fourth measured tag parameter; for Lotek coded ID, this is the standard deviation of the first interpulse gap
`param5:`	numeric scalar; fifth measured tag parameter; for Lotek coded ID, this is the standard deviation of the second interpulse gap
`param6:`	numeric scalar; sixth measured tag parameter; for Lotek coded ID, this is the standard deviation of the third interpulse gap
`paramType:`	integer scalar; indicates the type of parameters supplied for this tag; should be a foreign key to a table with parameter type info.
`ts:`	numeric scalar; registration timestamp; typically Sys.time(), but for the time at which the registration was actually made, not just when the API was called.
`nomFreq:`	numeric scalar; nominal tag carrier frequency, in MHz
`dateBin:`	character scalar; quick and dirty approach to keeping track of tags likely to be active at a given time; this records "YYYY-Q" where Q is 1, 2, 3, or 4. Represents the approximate quarter during which the tag is expected to be active. Used in lieu of deployment information when that is not (yet) available.
`model:`	character scalar; Lotek tag model
`...:`	additional parameters to motusQuery()
