System Configuration
A Detective Net wireless network can be configured either before deployment of De units in
an office or laboratory environment, or during deployment of De units in the field.
The following sections detail how to setup and configure a wireless network.
i
This process need only be undertaken once, if a network of configured and learned
wireless devices is powered down, upon being powered up again the devices will retain
the previous configuration and be able to operate immediately.
1.6.1
Switching on a device
X
Hold down
FB1
for 3 seconds.
X
The LED indicators will illuminate sequentially left to right to indicate power up.
i
LED1, LED2 or LED4 may be illuminated dependant upon previous configurations these
can be ignored at this stage; the device must now be reset.
1.6.2
Resetting a device
i
A reset will cause the device to erase any previous network configuration but will not
change the function of the device. For example if the device was previously a master
device it will continue to be so after a reset but the master will no longer retain any slave
information previously learned. It will effectively become a ‘blank’ master device.
X
With the device powered up, hold down
FB1
for 3 seconds.
X
If the device was previously configured a slave device, LED1 will flash 3 times to indicate a
successful reset on a slave device. LED1 will then continue to flash red indicating the device is a
slave device.
X
If the device was previously configured as a master device, LED1 will flash green and LED4 will
flash red 3 times to indicate a successful reset on a master device. LED1 will then continue to
flash red and LED4 will continue to flash green indicating the device is configured as a master
device.
