Configuration
Using the SignalFire Toolkit
The SignalFire Toolkit application can be downloaded at
After installation, launch the software and the main toolkit window will open:
Select the COM port associated with the Wireless IO Module Mini
and click “Auto
-Detect Device on
COM Port.” This will open the device configuration window, where all device settings can be
configured.
Network Settings
The network is set using the SignalFire Toolkit. To join a SignalFire network in Node mode, all Wireless
I/O Module Minis must have the same Radio Network, Radio Network Group, and Corporate
ID/Encryption Key as the Gateway. For two Wireless I/O Module Minis to communicate in Point-to-
Point mode, they must share the same Radio Network, Radio Network Group, and Corporate
ID/Encryption but not share those settings with any other SignalFire network.
To use an Encryption Key in lieu of a Corporate ID, check off the “Enable Encryption” box under t
he
Corporate ID. The Corporate ID field will switch over to an Encryption Key field.
The encryption key can be hidden so it cannot be read. This is the
most secure option, but if you forget your key, there is no way to recover it
–
you have to reset the
key on every device on its network. To enable this option, select
Set Encryption Key Unrecoverable
under the
Settings
menu.
