Adding a New Sensor into Service
Commissioning network
– If the sensor is
joining a commissioning network, simply
switch on the sensor and it
should be ready to join the network using the default
settings.
Production network with Network ID 101 or 102
– If the production network uses
Network ID 101 or 102 and the default Join Key, simply switch on the sensor and set
the Network ID by using the sensor’s push button and the LED flash sequence to
configure the sensors to join the production network.
Production network with customized Network ID
– If the production network uses a
customized Network ID and Join Key, you need a commissioning network to configure
the new sensor’s network settings before it can be put into service in the production
network. Follow the steps below. The alternative is to use SKF’s pre-configuration
service.
