5.1.5 DVCFG (Device Configuration) Menu

On Gateways, the DVCFG menu allows users to set various device-specific parameters, including the network ID (NID),
slave ID (SLID), baud rate, and parity. In extended address mode, use this menu to also set the maximum number of radio
devices (MAXN) within the network and the extended address binding code (XADR).

Baud and Parity
The options for baud rate are: 19200, 38400, or 9600. For parity, select None, Even, or Odd.
Extended Address (Binding) Code
Binding Nodes to a Gateway ensures the Nodes only exchange data with the Gateway they are bound to. After a
Gateway enters binding mode, the Gateway automatically generates and transmits a unique extended addressing
(XADR), or binding, code to all Nodes within range that are also in binding mode. The extended addressing (binding)
code defines the network, and all radios within a network must use the same code.
Max Nodes
Selecting the maximum number of system radio devices (Gateway and all Nodes) changes the timing for the
wireless network. For example, if you are running four Nodes in your wireless network, set the system's maximum
device count to 8. This allows up to 8 radio devices, including the Gateway, in the wireless network and offers the
highest throughput, 62.5 milliseconds, for each Node. The choices are 8, 16, 32, and 48 devices.
