5. Reset the Expander!
IMPORTANT:
ALWAYS
reset the Expander memory,
even if the Expander is new "out of the box" and/or has
never been used previously. The
RESET
button de-
scribed below can be accessed through a small hole in
the unit (location shown in Fig. 1). To depress the
RESET
button, simply insert supplied
Reset Pin
into the hole. Proceed as follows:
WHILE THE UNIT IS POWERED AND PLUGGED IN-
TO THE OUTLET:
●
Press and hold
the
RESET
button...
●
...Continue holding until the red LED turns on solid...
●
...Release and verify the green LED flickers rapidly
This "resetting" of the
AL-IME2-PIE
Expander clears
all memory and ensures that any previous data (such
as factory test data) is cleared from the unit.
EXPANDER LED INDICATIONS
be set to a different "Expander Group" value (along
with its associated Expanders). The "Expander Group"
value determines which Expanders are associated with
each Gateway, thus preventing Gateways from discov-
ering unintended Expanders.
Note:
The small
"selection arrow" on each dial must be pointing directly
to the desired value.
Hold the
AL-IME2-PIE
with the
label "up" as shown in Fig. 1.
Example:
Fig. 2 (below) displays the "Expander
Group" value set to "
50
". Use a small flat-head screw-
driver to turn the dials and make the selections.
3. Power the Expander
After setting the "Expander Group" values dials, simply
plug the
AL-IME2-PIE
into a standard un-switched
120VAC wall outlet, then observe the LEDs (see step 4
below).
