ZFR1811 Wireless Field Bus Router Installation Instructions

Troubleshooting

Use the Status Light-Emitting Diode (LED) (see 
Figure 1) along with the information in Table 3 to 
troubleshoot the ZFR1811 Router. 

Wireless Signal Strength

A wireless signal strength indication LED displays the 
reception strength of the transmissions between the 
ZFR1810 Coordinators, ZFR1811 Routers, and the 
WRZ Series Sensors. This LED helps determine the 
network connectivity status when selecting locations for 
the devices during system installation.

Wireless transmissions between ZFR1810 
Coordinators and ZFR1811 Routers occur as needed. 
Wireless transmissions between ZFR1811 Routers and 
WRZ Sensors occur approximately every 60 seconds 
or when the occupancy button on the WRZ Sensor is 
pressed. Refer to the 

WRZ Series Wireless Room 

Temperature Sensors Installation Instructions (Part No. 
24-10332-2)

 for more information.

Approximately once every 10 seconds, the Signal 
Strength LED flashes to indicate the strength of the 
signal received from neighboring devices. See Table 3.

Note:

The Signal Strength LEDs on all the ZFR1811 

routers in a network extinguish after approximately 
2 hours of normal operation, making the ZFR1811 less 
distracting when installed in an open area. To re-enable 
the ZFR1811 LEDs for troubleshooting purposes, 
perform a scan using the ZFR Checkout Tool (ZCT). 
Alternatively, push the Network Optimize/Reform Push 
Button on the ZFR1810 coordinator for 0-5 seconds. 
Note that if you press this button more than 5 seconds 
a Network Optimize or Reform is initiated.

Refer to the 

ZFR1800 Series Wireless Field Bus 

System Technical Bulletin (LIT-12011295) 

for more 

information on determining the signal strength between 
ZFR1800 Series devices in your application.
