WARNING:
Do not use this device for personnel protection
Using this device for personnel protection could result in serious injury or death.
This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in
personnel safety applications. A device failure or malfunction can cause either an energized (on) or de-
energized (off) output condition.

Configure and Install Your Q45 Network
Follow these steps to set up and install your Wireless Q45 network.
1. On the Wireless Q45 Sensor Node:
a) Configure the DIP switches (if applicable).
b) Apply power.
2. On the Gateway or DXM:
a) Configure the DIP switches (if applicable).
b) Wire the I/O.
c) Apply power.
3. Bind the Q45 to the master radio.
4. Observe the LED behavior to verify the devices are communicating to each other.
5. Using the configuration software, configure the I/O mapping between the Q45 and its master radio.
6. Conduct a Site Survey between the Gateway and the Wireless Q45.
7. Install your devices.
Configure the Gateway

The Sure Cross
wireless system is a radio frequency network with integrated I/O that operates
in most environments and eliminates the need for wiring runs. Systems are built around a
Gateway, which acts as the wireless network master device, and one or more Wireless Q45
Sensors.
Wireless industrial I/O device with six discrete (sourcing) inputs and six discrete
(sourcing) outputs
DIP switches allow the user to select one of eight defined I/O mapping configurations to
automatically map the Nodes' inputs to this Gateway's outputs
Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology ensures reliable data delivery
within the unlicensed Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band
Transceivers provide bidirectional communication between the Gateway and Node,
including fully acknowledged data transmission
Site Survey analyzes the network's signal strength and reliability and displays the results
on the Gateway's LCD
LCD shows I/O status, Site Survey results, and network status information
Lost RF links are detected and relevant outputs set to user-defined conditions
Environmental Rating
IP67, NEMA 6
IP20, NEMA 1

    ® Sure Cross DX80 Gateway for Wireless Q45 Sensors Configure the DIP Switches Before changing DIP switch positions, disconnect the power. Any changes made to the DIP switches are not recognized until after power is cycled to the device. For parameters not set using the DIP switches, use the User Configuration Software to make configuration changes. For parameters set using the DIP switches, the DIP switch positions override any changes made using the User Configuration Software.

  • Page 6 ® Sure Cross DX80 Gateway for Wireless Q45 Sensors Discrete Bit-Packed Registers Discrete bit-packed registers include the discrete status registers, discrete inputs, and discrete outputs. Bit packing involves using a single register, or range of contiguous registers, to represent I/O values. When networks use similar Nodes to gather data using the same I/O registers for each Node, discrete data from multiple Nodes can be bit packed into a single register on the Gateway.
