Click Apply. As the Field Link processes your request to add the device
to the network, the value displayed in the Status field changes:
▪ Initializing. The module is in the boot-up sequence. The module
sends info (Part Number, firmware version, etc.) to the RTU. During
this time, the module is not yet communicating with the RTU. Once
the code starts up (usually after 30-60 seconds), the module switches
from Initializing to Configuring Network.
▪ Configuring Network. The code is running and the module is
attempting to pull configuration info from the RTU. If the
Initializing status is taking too long, it means that either
▪ the board is not completely booting up, or
▪ the application code is not correctly loading. As a result, the
sequence cannot complete.
▪ Detecting radio. The Field Link recognizes the network.
Configuration and Commissioning
Description
Enter a five-character Network ID. Valid values are
1 to 36863.
Should be noted that each IEC62591 Module / RTU
can only have a single Network ID. The "grouping"
should be related to the control/monitoring network
for a given RTU.
For example if two RTUs are installed at a site,
each grouping should be the set of meter runs each
RTU controls.
Note: A Network ID cannot be all zeros (such as
00000).
Enter a valid Join Key to permit the device to
access its defined network.
A Join Key is a 128-byte value expressed as four
32-bit portions. As shown in the example, you can
use zeros for the first three parts of the Join Key.
This read-only field shows the current status of the
connection between the network and ROCLINK
800.
Click to enable active advertising, in which the IEC
62591 module continuously broadcasts network
information. This enables new devices to quickly
join the network. Active advertising broadcasts
network information continuously for approximately
30 minutes.
Additionally, active advertising occurs automatically
when:
▪
You first power up or restart the IEC 62591
module or
▪
A device leaves the network (which allows
communications to re-establish).
