Wireless Devices
Bootloader Mode
In this mode, a device is ready for an update. It cannot participate in a mesh network and cannot
provide fire protection. The device is viewable in the communicator window of SWIFT Tools with
the status "Bootloader". To remove a device from bootloader mode, refer to Appendix C.
Distributor Mode
In this mode, a device is functioning as a profile distributor. The device cannot participate in a mesh
network and cannot provide fire protection while it is in distributor mode. A device in distributor
mode will be used as a mobile unit to share the profile with other devices. The distributing device
will be available in the communicator window of the SWIFT Tools with the status "Distributor".
For more information, refer to Section 3.5.2.
Mesh Participant Modes
Devices that are in the mesh network no longer communicate directly with SWIFT Tools. SWIFT
Tools must communicate with the gateway for status information on a device. The gateway will
respond to the FACP for the device at the address set with the SLC rotary address wheels.
Mesh Formation Mode
In this mode, a device is an active participant in a mesh that is forming. The LED will blink green
then yellow every 7 seconds. The device cannot perform any fire protection in this state. The device
responds to its SLC address with a "INIT MODE" or "INIT" trouble. For further information on
mesh formation mode, refer to "Section 3.5.3".
Initial Mesh Restructuring Mode
In this mode, the mesh network is formed and is in the process of establishing stronger communica-
tion paths. The LED will blink yellow every 6.8 seconds. The device cannot perform any fire pro-
tection in this state. The device responds to its SLC address with a "DEVICE INIT" or "INIT"
trouble.
Normal Mode
In normal mode, the mesh network is formed and provides fire protection. The LED will blink
green every 14 seconds. The LED flash can be disabled by panel configuration. If a device is in
trouble, it is indicated by the trouble messages. For information on trouble messages, refer to
Section 3.6.3.
Rescue Mode
In rescue mode, a devices is an active participant of a mesh network. It will search and retrieve any
device that has lost communication with the network. Rescue mode is indicated by a green LED
blink every 7 seconds.
3.6.2 LED Indicators
The two LEDs on the devices blink in the same pattern to allow the LEDs to be viewed from any
angle. The LED indicators are provided in Appendix D on page 59.
3.6.3 Trouble Conditions
The following trouble conditions are unique to the battery powered RF devices. Multiple troubles
states may be active for a single device, but only the highest priority trouble event will be dis-
played.
Trouble Conditions with Fire Protection
The devices (on an IFC2-3030 only) indicate the following trouble conditions with a single yellow
LED blink every 14 seconds. The wireless device will still perform fire protection during the fol-
lowing trouble states.
