setnullsignal {secr}R Documentation

Null signal strength

Description

Set the signal value to be used for non-detections.

Usage

setnullsignal (value) 

Arguments

value numeric value

Details

A single numeric value is used internally to represent signal strength below the threshold of detection. The value should be less than any valid signal measurement.

The default value is 0 (zero). This is adequate for most terrestrial acoustic applications, in which signal strength is typically in the range 40 to 120 dB.

Value

The old null value is returned. A side effect is to change the 'nullval' variable in the namespace of the package.
