Page 6: Overview
2.0 Overview Ultra1000 series wireless sensor is used for air quality monitoring. The sensor detects toxic or combustible gas in air and sends the signal to a Gas Monitor / Controller over a wireless data network. A complete data packet is transmitted to the wireless controller (or receiver). The data packet includes the current gas reading, sensor diagnostic data and battery voltage. -
Page 7: Setting Up Wireless Detectors
3.0 Setting up Wireless Detectors 3.1 Installing Detector Mount the detector to a flat surface or on a pole using pole mount kit. A tripod is also available for a free standing detector unit. When mounting to a wall or flat surface use proper hardware to have at least 4-5 inches between the wall and the sensor enclosure. - Page 8 Once the battery pack in place secure it with the flat holding pate and 2 each thumb screws on the mounting posts. Install transmitter board assembly on top of the battery pack. There are two (2) each gold threaded inserts on top of the battery pack.

Page 10: Programming Sensor Address And Zone Id
3.3 Programming Sensor Address & Zone/Network ID Initially the sensor must be assigned with a sensor Address (Unit ID) and Network / Zone ID. The sensor address and zone id needs to be programmed only once. The data is retained in a non- volatile memory and is not lost when the detector is powered down. - Page 11 Magnet tool to activate Internal switch Edit Config Mode. Setting Unit Address & Zone ID Figure 3. Note: Network / Zone ID should be set to 0 unless multiple Controllers / Gateways are used within the transmitting range of each other. The default Zone ID is 0 for all the gateways, controllers and sensors shipped from the factory.

8. To Exit simply hold the magnet at 4 o’clock position and the sensor will return to normal operation. The sensor may re-boot if the zone id is modified. The new zone ID will be retained in the non-volatile memory and will be recalled upon next power up. Caution The default Zone ID is 0 set at the factory for all the detectors and the controller. - Page 13 Place and hold the magnet until display indicates the “Calib Sensor” .
