2. Enter binding mode on the Node.
•
If you have a two-button Node, triple-click button 2.
•
If you have a one-button Node, triple-click the button.
•
If you have a Node with no buttons, remove the top cover and set both the left and right rotary dials to F to enter
binding mode.

The Node enters binding mode and locates the Gateway in binding mode.
For two LED models, the red LEDs flash alternately. After binding is complete, both LEDs are both solid red for a few
seconds.
For one-LED models, the red and green LED flashes alternately while the Node searches for the Gateway. After binding
is complete, the LED is red and green for four seconds (looks amber), then the red and green flash simultaneously
(looks amber) four times.
The Node automatically exits binding mode, cycles its power, then enters RUN mode.
3. Use the Node's rotary dials to assign a valid decimal Node Address (between 01 and 47). The left rotary dial represents
the tens digit (0 through 4) and the right dial represents the ones digit (0 through 9) of the Node Address.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all Nodes that will communicate to this Gateway.
5. Exit binding mode on the Gateway.
•
If you have a two-button Gateway, single-click either button.
•
If you have a one-button Gateway, single-click the button.
•
If you have a Gateway with no buttons, change the Gateway's rotary dials to a valid Network ID.
Valid Network IDs are 01 through 32, in decimal, established using the rotary dials. The left dial may be set to 0, 1, 2,
or 3. The right dial may be set from 0 to 9 when the left dial is at 0, 1, or 2; or set to 0 through 2 when the left dial is
at 3. (Positions A through F are invalid network ID numbers.)
When installing special kits with pre-mapped I/O, indicated by device model numbers beginning in DX80K, return the
rotary dials to their original positions after binding. If the rotary dials are not returned to their original positions, the I/O
mapping will not work.
3.5 LED Behavior for the Gateways
Verify all devices are communicating properly. The radios and antennas must be a minimum distance apart to function
properly. Recommended minimum distances are:
900 MHz 150 mW and 250 mW radios: 6 feet
900 MHz 1 Watt radios: 15 feet
2.4 GHz 65 mW radios: 1 foot

Modbus Communication Error
For Gateway and Ethernet Bridge systems, active Modbus communication refers to the communication between the
Gateway and the Ethernet Bridge. For GatewayPro systems, the Modbus communication LEDs refer to the communication
internal to the GatewayPro. For Gateway-only systems, the Modbus communication LEDs refer to the communication
between the Gateway and its host system (if applicable).
3.6 LED Behavior for the Nodes
Nodes do not sample inputs until they are communicating with the Gateway. The radios and antennas must be a minimum
distance apart to function properly. Recommended minimum distances are:
2.4 GHz 65 mW radios: 1 foot
900 MHz 150 mW and 250 mW radios: 6 feet
900 MHz 1 Watt radios: 15 feet
