24
Explanation/Resolution
Give the WCI more time to join. If the network closes before the WCI has joined, re-
open if necessary by pressing the OPEN NET button.
For factory addressed WCIs, verify addresses with equipment report.
Verify each WCI address after installation.
If sensor is installed, check for error code at sensor.
Initiate network formation and resolve by exception.
Ensure that:
• The WCI is wired correctly.
• The corresponding controller is wired to equipment correctly and is powered On.
Try a different channel. A better channel may be found by trial and error or by using
a tool such as WiSpy.
Relocate WCI
Replace
Explanation/Resolution
Ensure that the WCI is wired properly to the Tracer SC
Ensure that the wireless link on the Tracer SC is enabled and configured to match WCI
address, and is unique within the building.
Move network components to within radio range or break up networks to make smaller
so that all components are within radio range.
Explanation/Resolution
Ensure that the sensor address matches the unit controller address.
Note: Be sure to match addresses rather than the direction of the arrows.
