Wireless Sensor Setup

This subsection explains two common situations you may encounter during wireless sensor setup.
Disabling a Wireless Sensor when a Wired Sensor is Connected to the Unit
Controller
If a unit controller's WCI is a sensor receiver, the wireless sensor is detected and the necessary
references are created automatically. The Enable Wireless Space Sensor setting in the Wireless Sensor
Configuration group box on the Controller Settings screen is enabled (selected) by default.
However, if a wired sensor is connected to the unit controller, and a wireless sensor is within range, the
wireless sensor has priority and the unit controller may use the wireless sensor even though a sensor is
wired to the unit controller. In such a case, you must de-select the Enable Wireless Space Sensor
setting in the Wireless Sensor Configuration group box on the Controller Settings screen so that the
wireless sensor is disabled from use by the unit controller and wired sensor is used instead. (Also see
"Disassociating a Wireless Sensor From a Controller" in the Tracer TU for Programmable
Controllers Help.)
It is also possible to disable only the wireless humidity sensor. This option would be chosen in cases
where a wireless space sensor is used in conjunction with a wired humidity sensor. To disable the
wireless humidity sensor de-select the Enable Wireless Humidity Sensor setting in the Wireless Sensor
Configuration group box on the Controller Settings screen.
Multiple WCS Installation Setup
Setup is required in Tracer TU if multiple wireless sensors are installed on a controller. To set up a
controller for multiple sensors, connect to TU and navigate to the Wireless Sensor Configuration box on
88
on a WCI repeater?"
