For factory configured kits, the Network ID and Device Addresses have been assigned. Otherwise, use the rotary dials
(shown below) to define both the NID and Device Address for each device.
To operate more than 15 Nodes in your wireless network, use Extended Address Mode and device binding instead of
Rotary Dial Address Mode.

5.10.2 Setting the Network ID Using the Rotary Dials

The wireless network is defined by the Network ID (NID) assigned to the Gateway and its Nodes.
Each device within this common network must have a unique Device Address assigned. When using Rotary Dial Address
Mode, set the Network ID on the Gateway and all its Nodes using the left rotary dial.
1. Remove rotary dial access covers. Turn counterclockwise to remove and clockwise to tighten.
2. On the Gateway, set the left rotary dial to 1. The factory default NID setting on all devices is 1.
3. On all Nodes within the same network, set the left rotary dial to 1. Assign the same NID to all devices within a single
network (hexadecimal 0-F).
When more than one network is operating in the same space, assign a unique Network ID to each network.

5.10.3 Setting the Device Address Using the Rotary Dials

The Device ID establishes a unique identifier for each device within a wireless network.
1. On the Gateway, set the right rotary dial to 0.
A device address of 0 on the Gateway displays settings for the Gateway itself. To view settings for another device on
the network, adjust the right rotary dial on the Gateway to the desired device address.
2. On the first Node (device address = 1), set the right rotary dial to 1. Do not change the Device ID for pre-configured
kits as this would affect the factory mapping of the I/O.
3. On the second Node (device address = 2), set the right rotary dial to 2.
4. Continue setting the device address for each additional Node using a unique number (...3,4,5).
After setting both the Network ID and Device Address for all devices, re-install the rotary dial access covers, referring to
the Installation section for IP67 instructions. A successful radio link is identified by a blinking green LED 1 on each Node.

5.10.4 Setting Up Channel Search Mode

A Gateway runs Channel Search Mode on power up or when the Gateway's Network ID is changed.
Before beginning, apply power to the Gateway.
After Channel Search Mode begins, the Gateway determines if its assigned Network ID is available for use or is already in
use by another radio network. For example, if a Gateway powers up set to Network ID 2, Channel Search Mode begins
running as shown below.
1. Apply power to the Gateway and set the rotary dial to a Network ID number (shown here as Network ID 2).
Channel Search Mode begins running, and LED 1 is solid red and LED 2 is flashing amber. The LCD displays START
CHANNL SEARCH MODE. The test takes one minute to complete and counts down from 60 seconds. The LCD shows
SEARCH NID 2 1M 0S. If the Network ID is not already in use, the LCD displays NID OK and enters RUN mode.
2. If the Network ID is already in use by another DX80 Gateway device, an IN USE message displays. Use the left rotary
dial to select another ID.
3. After selecting a new Network ID, click button two once to restart Channel Search Mode.
The screen cycles between displaying the current Network ID setting and a new NID setting until either the left rotary
dial is changed to another Network ID or the test is aborted. (LED 1 is solid red and LED 2 flashes red.) Once a new
Network ID is selected, Channel Search Mode begins again.
4. After entering RUN mode, the LCD display shows the current I/O status of the Gateway.
The Gateway and GatewayPro start in *RUN mode. The LCD shows the current Network ID (NID), identifies the device,
then beings cycling through the I/O points (GatewayPro has no I/O points).
To cancel Channel Search Mode, double-click button two. The word ABORT displays on the LCD and both LEDs are solid
red. The Gateway enters RUN mode, operating on the Network ID chosen.
