An algorithm incorporating both channels and the channels background is employed to indicate
the analogue values displayed at the associated control panel and therefore determining the
devices signal strength. This is shown in the table below.

The device to Radio Loop Module information is updated every time the device responds to a poll
which is every 123 seconds. The Radio Loop Module to device information is automatically
updated every 6 hours or if a manual update is requested.
The minimum recommend level is 50 points or above on each channel.
Manual Update
– This menu when entered will automatically send signals from the Radio Loop
Module to the individual device and ask for its current signal level status to be transmitted back
to the Radio Loop Module. This will then automatically update the Signal level fields for the
device. If a signal level field is still awaiting an update from a channel 0 will be shown in the
field.
Ident
– This menu shows the unique 5 digit identification number for the device.
Software Version
– This menu shows the software version currently installed in the device.
Node Number –
This menu should only be used when two Radio Loop Modules are connected to
one of the Control Panels loops. The first Radio Loop Modules Node Number should be set as 1
whilst the second Radio Loop Modules Node Number should be set as 2.
Loop Address -
This menu allows you to view the device’s current loop address. A new device
loop address can be selected by pressing the rotary control, thus choosing an alternative address.
Output Test –
This menu allows you to turn device LED’s on.
