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.
Boost Voltage
Select the boost voltage setting for the power supplied to the sensor powered by this FlexPower Node.
Discrete Input Type
Select the discrete input type: sourcing (PNP) or sinking (NPN).
Host Configured
Selecting “Host Configured (override switches)” uses the factory’s default configuration for this device or allows a host system to set
parameters. If the host configured option is not selected, use the DIP switches to configure the device parameters.
Temperature Units
Use the DIP switch to specify if the temperature is stored in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. The default position is OFF, setting the
temperature to Fahrenheit. For Celsius measurements, set this switch to the ON position.
Hibernation Mode and Sleep Mode
While in hibernation mode, the radio does not operate. All SureCross devices powered from an integrated battery ship from the factory in
hibernation mode to conserve the battery. To wake the device, press and hold button 1 for five seconds. To put any FlexPower or integra-
ted battery SureCross radio into hibernation mode, press and hold button 1 for five seconds. The radio is in hibernation mode when the
LEDs stop blinking, but in some models, the LCD remains on for an additional minute after the radio enters hibernational mode. After a
device has entered hibernation mode, you must wait one minute before waking it.
During normal operation, the SureCross radio devices enter sleep mode after 15 minutes of operation. The radio continues to function,
but the LCD goes blank. To wake the device, press any button.
