MOSAIC FIREFLYs as Repeaters (Mesh Mode)
When wired as a repeater, after a successful initial swipe, the RED LED will go solid and the GREEN
LED will flash slowly as the MOSAIC FIREFLY searches for the mesh. When communication has
been established with a node already connected to the mesh (MOSAIC Gateway, Repeater or another
MOSAIC FIREFLY) the GREEN LED will go solid.
MOSAIC FIREFLYs in Non-Mesh Mode
After a successful magnet swipe, the green light will be solid for a very short period of time to confirm
that the MOSAIC FIREFLY is initializing. There is no other GREEN LED behavior on MOSAIC
FIREFLYs in non-mesh mode until programming is complete. When MOSAIC FIREFLYs in non-mesh
mode are working correctly, the RED and GREED LEDs will flash in unison every 5 seconds.
MOSIAC FIREFLYs on Encoded Meters (Non-Mesh Mode)
After a successful initial swipe, the RED LED will flash slowly until it detects the encoder. If the
MOSAIC FIREFLY successfully connects to the encoder, the RED LED will go solid.
If the RED LED flashes quickly, the MOSAIC FIREFLY has detected its connection to a meter, but has
not received an acknowledgement that verifies it is connected to a supported encoder. In this scenario,
the wires may not be connected correctly or the encoder may not be supported in the current MOSAIC
FIREFLY firmware.
If the RED LED flashes slowly, the MOSAIC FIREFLY is searching for an acknowledgement from a
meter, but has not received any. The MOSAIC FIREFLY will continue to wait for an
acknowledgement, but will eventually go into ship mode if none is received.
MOSAIC FIREFLYs on Pulse Meters (Non-Mesh Mode)
After a successful initial swipe, the RED LED will blink slowly until it detects a connection with a pulse
meter. NOTE: this happens very quickly.
Once the MOSAIC FIREFLY detects the connection to a pulse meter, the RED LED blinks quickly until
5 meter pulses are detected. Once 5 pulses are detected, the RED LED will go solid.
If the MOSAIC FRIEFLY is not wired correctly, the RED LED will continue to blink slowly, or the
MOSAIC FIREFLY could go back into ship mode (meaning the RED LED will go off after the magnet
swipe).
MOSAIC FIREFLYs (D411X only) Connected to Remote Shutoff Valves
The Remote Shutoff Valve (RSV) controls a water valve remotely. The RSV is connected to a
FIREFLY. The ROADRUNNER or MOSAIC communicates to the FIREFLY to control the RSV. The
ROADRUNNER is able to control the RSV with or without a route loaded. There are 3 functions that
can be performed on a RSV; Open RSV, Close RSV, and get current status of RSV (Open or Closed).
