Integrated battery models are also available without batteries (add an -NB to the model number). If you purchase a model without
the battery, Banner Engineering recommends battery mode BWA-BATT-001. For Class I Division 1/Zone 0 and Class I Division 2/
Zone 2 environments, only battery BWA-BATT-001 is certified.
Storage and Sleep Modes
Storage Mode (applies to battery-powered models only)—While in storage mode, the radio does not operate. All Sure Cross
®
radios powered from an integrated battery ship from the factory in storage mode to conserve the battery. To wake the device,
press and hold button 1 for 5 seconds. To put any
Flex
Power
®
or integrated battery Sure Cross radio into storage mode, press and
hold button 1 for 5 seconds. The radio is in storage mode when the LEDs stop blinking, but in some models, the LCD remains on
for an additional minute after the radio enters storage mode. After a device has entered storage mode, you must wait 1 minute
before waking it.
Sleep Mode (applies to both battery and 10–30 V dc powered models)—During normal operation, the Sure Cross radio devices
enter sleep mode after 15 minutes of operation. The radio continues to function, but the LCD goes blank. To wake the device,
press any button.
Configuration Instructions
Setting Up Your Wireless Network
To set up and install your wireless network, follow these steps.
Disconnect the power from your Sure Cross devices.
1. Configure the DIP switches of all devices.
2. If your device has I/O, connect the sensors to the Sure Cross devices. If your device does not have I/O, skip this step.
3. Refer to the wiring diagrams to apply power to all devices.
•
For housed models, the Gateway's LED 1 is solid green and the Node's LED 2 flashes red to indicate there is no radio
link to the Gateway.
•
For board-level models, the Gateway's LED is solid green and the Node's LED flashes red to indicate there is no radio
link to the Gateway.
4. Form the wireless network by binding the Nodes to the Gateway. If the binding instructions are not included in the
datasheet, refer to the product manual for binding instructions.
5. Observe the LED behavior to verify the devices are communicating with each other.
•
For housed models, the Gateway's LED 1 is solid green and the Node's LED 1 flashes green to indicate it is
communicating with the Gateway.
•
For board-level models, the Gateway's LED is solid green and the Node's LED flashes green to indicate it is
communicating with the Gateway.
6. Configure any I/O points to use the sensors connected to the Sure Cross devices.
7. Conduct a site survey between the Gateway and Nodes. If the site survey instructions are not included in this datasheet,
refer to the product manual for detailed site survey instructions.
8. Install your wireless sensor network components. If installation instructions are not included in this datasheet, refer to the
product manual for detailed installation instructions.
For additional information, including installation and setup, weatherproofing, device menu maps, troubleshooting, and a list of
accessories, refer to one of the following product manuals.

Wireless I/O Network Instruction Manual:
Configure the DIP Switches
Before changing DIP switch positions, disconnect the power. Any changes made to the DIP switches are not recognized until after
power is cycled to the device.
For parameters not set via DIP switches, use the User Configuration Software to make configuration changes. For parameters set
using the DIP switches, the DIP switch positions override any changes made using the User Configuration Software.
Access the Internal DIP Switches
Follow these steps to access the internal DIP switches.
1. Unscrew the four screws that mount the cover to the bottom housing.
2. Remove the cover from the housing without damaging the ribbon cable or the pins the cable plugs into.
