E.2 Status Button
When the status button is pressed, nodes indicate their connection status with the network by
briefly illuminating the LED indicators located above the status button. A red flash means the
node has not yet discovered and joined the network. A green flash means the node has joined the
network and is operating. A node with a green flash will be present in the portal. With an
"always on" thread, nodes should join and be present in the portal within a couple of minutes,
provided they are within radio range.
A node with a red flash may be out of radio range of the Sensemetrics gateway (thread) or the
thread may be in low power mode. When adding a node to network, threads should be in "always
on" mode for the fastest deployment. Threads may be switched back to the desired mode once all
the devices are accounted for. The mode of the thread is controlled in the "Modify Thread
Connection" dialog in the portal.
