Address Mode
The SureCross wireless devices may use one of two types of addressing modes: rotary dial addressing or extended addressing. In
rotary dial address mode, the left rotary dial establishes the network ID and the right rotary dial sets the device ID. The wireless network
is restricted to a maximum of 16 devices.
Extended address mode uses a security code to "bind" Nodes to a specific Gateway. Bound Nodes can only send and receive informa-
tion from the Gateway to which they are bound. In extended address mode, wireless networks may contain up to 48 radio devices. For
more information on extended address mode, refer to the SureCross™ Wireless I/O Network product manual.
The device ships in rotary dial address mode by default, with the DIP switch in the OFF position. To use extended address mode, change
the DIP switch to the ON position.
Analog Input and Output Scale
Use the DIP switch to select which current scale to use for all the device's analog inputs and outputs: 0 to 20 mA or 4 to 20 mA. When
using a 4-20 mA sensor with a 0-20 mA input, the sensor uses the 4-20 mA section of the total range. Using a 4-20 mA with a 0-20 mA
input allows you to determine when you have an error condition with the sensor. A normal input reading between 4 and 20 mA indicates a
functioning sensor whereas a value below 4 mA indicates an error condition, such as a broken wire or loose connection. This DIP switch
is used only on the 0 to 20 mA models, not the 0 to 10V models.
Discrete Input Type
Select the type of discrete input sensors to use with this device: sourcing (PNP) sensors or sinking (NPN) sensors.
Link Loss Outputs
The SureCross DX80 wireless devices use a deterministic radio link time-out method to address RF link interruption or failure. When a
radio link fails, all pertinent wired outputs are sent to defined states until the link is recovered, ensuring that disruptions in the communica-
tions link result in predictable system behavior.
Following a radio link time-out, all outputs linked to the Node in question are set to de-energize (discrete outputs to zero, analog outputs
to 0 mA or 4 mA), energize (discrete outputs to one, analog outputs to 20 mA), or to hold the last stable state/value. Use the DIP switches
to select the link loss output state.
Modbus/User Configuration Tool (UCT) or DIP Switch Configured
In Modbus/UCT Configured mode, the device parameters are changed using the User Configuration Tool (UCT) or a Modbus command.
All DIP switch positions are ignored. In DIP Switch Configured mode, use the DIP switches to configure the parameters listed in the table.
