Users’ Manual Analog Node QUICK START GUIDE Generally, we send devices pre-configured. If your devices are pre-configured by us, please go through the user-friendly procedure to get started with your ER Beam system, which takes only a few minutes to get the process rolling.
Users’ Manual Analog Node SETTING UP WIRELESS ANALOG NODE This section provides information on setting up an Analog Node to work with the offline ER Beam gateway. Installation The Nodes can be directly affixed to a flat surface using M6 screws. However, for more sophisticated mounting scenarios, we recommend using the node bracket.
Users’ Manual Analog Node Node Setup Connect the node antenna to the antenna bulkhead. Connect the sensor wires to the node while ensuring that the wires are plugged in correctly. Voltage Output Sensors PWR: +Voltage input to sensor (e.g. +12V) GND: 0 Voltage input to sensor (e.g.
Users’ Manual Analog Node -T: Thermistor SHLD: Shield wire of sensor Switch off the Node and insert the battery while ensuring the correct polarity. Configuring via the ER Beam Offline App Obtain an Android phone and connect it to the ER_Beam Wi-Fi network. (See the Gateway section to learn about switching on the ER_Beam Wi-Fi network.) Connect the Android smartphone to the Node via an OTG adapter.
