Variable Measurement Interval

Adapts the measurement and upload intervals based on how full the measurement queue is (__status().mqueue), allowing more measurements to be stored during communication outages.

// This function adjusts the measurement interval dependong on how full the queue is, adjusts the measurement interval to allow for storing more measurements during comm outages
function checkMeasurementInterval(){

     if(__status().mqueue > 75){ // 75% full
    setEnv("sys.meas_interval",3600);// 1 hr meas interval
    setEnv("sys.sync_interval",300);// 5 min upload
  }  else if(__status().mqueue > 10){ // 10% full
    setEnv("sys.meas_interval",300);// 5 min interval
    setEnv("sys.sync_interval",300); // 5 min upload
  } else { // Default Measurement & Upload Interval
    setEnv("sys.meas_interval",60);
    setEnv("sys.sync_interval",60);
  }
