Meaning of the initi-
ator
The "initiator" is the most important RouterNode in the RingCast. Connect
the "Initiator" and the RouterNodes in the vicinity to Ethernet, even if the
RouterNodes would reach each other wirelessly. This creates a backup and
provides the RouterNode with a fallback level for passing on the signal.
Three inputs, three
RingCasts
You can create a separate RingCast for each of the three inputs of a
RouterNode, but you cannot start several RingCasts from one input. This
means that you can connect one RouterNode to a maximum of three
RingCasts. This restriction does not apply to the entire WaveNet; you can
create more than three RingCasts.
RingCast calcula-
tion
After you have created the RingCast, the WaveNet Manager performs a
radio scan. It then uses the results of the radio scan to calculate a three-
dimensional structure.
Broadcast
RouterNodes that have received an input signal and have stored a reaction
for this input signal perform a broadcast to all locking devices networked
with this RouterNode. Within a RingCast, these reactions can be different at
the participating locking devices (depending on the reaction set at the
respective RouterNodes (see
Depending on the settings, the RouterNode repeats the broadcast up to
three times (four attempts in total). These settings are decisive for
repeating the broadcast:
Selected response: "Block lock" or
"Activation"
Input acknowledges must be enabled: "Input receipt short" or "Input
receipt static"
When calculating the structure, the WaveNet Manager ensures that as
many RouterNodes as possible can broadcast simultaneously without
interfering with each other. This allows you to address your LockNodes as
quickly as possible with a RingCast. After the RouterNode has completed
its broadcasts, it forwards the signal in a data packet to its target partners.
As soon as the LockNodes have received the broadcast, the LockNode
locking device executes the set response.
Protective func-
tions
An application purpose is, for example, the reaction to a fire alarm system.
If the fire alarm system sends a signal to a RouterNode, then all networked
locking devices should be opened and remain open until they are explicitly
closed by remote opening. However, you can also use other functions via a
RingCast, for example:
Block lock function
gunman attack function
Remote opening
