If network connection is still not established it may be that the devices have exceeded the
connectivity range within that given environment. Reposition the slave device ideally closer to the
master device. or closer to a slave device that has successful communication and repeat the force
communication process. Repeat this process until communication is established.
i
If a configured device cannot be moved closer to an adjacent device, utilising the 10m or
20m cable accessory it can be removed from Det and elevated to improve wireless
connectivity.
This process should then be repeated for all configured slave devices working outwards from the
master device until the full network has established communications.
At this point all devices in the network should indicate a fully functioning network by flashing LED2 green.
Once all Detective Net devices have been deployed a Network Connection test must be performed.
This ensures all devices are functioning and correctly connected to the network.
i
Once all Detective Net devices have been deployed a Network Connection test must
be performed. This ensures all devices are functioning and correctly connected to the
network.
If the sequence as described above is not followed when powering up the network, dependant upon
the network configuration it may take up to an hour before the whole network is fully established.
1.7.2 Force Communication
The force communication process can be used to force a slave device to re-establish communication
to a master device.
X
Press any button on the slave device and this will force the slave to establish communications with
the master device. LED2 will flash amber continuously whilst the device attempts to re-establish
communications, once communications is re-established LED2 should then single flash green.
i
Once communication to the master has been re-established it is important to repeat the
network connection test and ensure all devices respond appropriately.
If the force communications process is unsuccessful and connection is not re-established, LED2 will
flash red 3 times to indicate unsuccessful communications and then LED2 will continue to double
flash amber indicating the device is trying to re-establish network connection.
The force communication process can be repeated several times.
If the device is unable to re-establish network connection LED2 will double flash red indicating
network connection is lost.
