All Miro wireless devices installed in the same system must

acquire the same unique House ID before use. This process

is known as house binding. Each wireless device is bound

to all other wireless devices in the house. If you are not

familiar with the binding processes for the wireless devices

in your installation, please review the Installation Guide, or

individual installation instructions provided with the devices.
IMPORTANT: The MR232 can not be used to initiate a house

binding until it has acquired a house ID through a binding

initiated from another Miro wireless device in the system.
1. With all devices installed and energized, make sure

that every wireless device LED is yellow (amber).

If any LED is off, be sure the circuit breaker is

on and the device is correctly installed.

2. Go to any wireless device EXCEPT the MR232. Press

and hold the Up and the Down buttons simultaneously

until its LED flashes yellow (about 2 seconds). This

indicates that it has acquired a unique House ID.

3. Make sure that all other wireless device

LEDs are flashing green and the MR232 is

flashing yellow, indicating that they have

all acquired the same House ID.

4. Return to the device used in step 2, which is

still flashing yellow. Press and hold the Up and

the Down buttons simultaneously until the LED

changes to solid green (about 2 seconds).

5. All device LEDs in the House change to solid

green, indicating house binding is complete.

Other Bindings

The MR232 is a whole house device that is not bound to

any group or room. Other wireless devices in the system

should be bound to appropriate groups and rooms before

you attempt to control them from the Network Interface.

setup the terminal’s RS232 COM port as follows:
Baud Rate ..............................................................38.4Kbd

uSER INTERFACE

The MR232 has two user

interfaces. The first

consists of two pushbuttons

and a multi-color LED

for device status.
The second interface is

through an ASCII terminal

connection over the RS232

port. Through this, ASCII

commands can be issued

and cause controlled

responses on the system.

The “HELP” command

lists the system

commands. The commands and operands are described

in the MR232 Protocol Guide, available online.

Pushbuttons

The pushbuttons are the Top button ( )

and the Bottom button ( ).

Initiate Version and Status Messages

Press either pushbutton to transmit an identification or

version message over the RS232 connection as well as

a status message over the wireless network. This can

be used to verify outgoing communications between the

serial interface and a terminal emulator. The message

includes the product name, part number, firmware

version, and current configuration. Regardless of the

configuration, it will also transmit a status message

on the wireless network with its MAC address so that it

can be identified like any other wireless network device.

(This message can be invoked over the ASCII interface

though the command line with the “VER” command.)

Learn Function and Binding Operations

Press both buttons simultaneously for about 2 seconds to

invoke the LEARN function. When un-configured the MR232

cannot be the first device to initiate a house binding (its

LED flashes red). However, after a house ID is assigned

to the MR232 - either by a house ID binding initiated from

another wireless device or with the “SETH” command - the

MR232 can be used to initiate future binding processes.

Reset to Factory Default/unconfigure

When both the buttons are simultaneously pressed

for a period of 10 seconds, the device will perform

a system reset and clear all memory contents. This

resets the device to an unbound, unconfigured state

with a House ID of zero (0) and Building ID of one (1).
