Verification
Verify Network Connectivity
VP Series 2000 devices send data to a wireless network gateway. The data is then sent from the
gateway to the user by means of one or more of the following:
ISA100 devices
• Modbus
• General Client Interface (GCI)
WirelessHART devices
• Modbus
• HART over IP (HART-IP)
To collect data from gateways using GCI or HART-IP, the user must have the relevant versions of Bently
Nevada System 1 and the Ranger Pro plugin installed. Furthermore, dynamic data is only sent to the
user using GCI or HART-IP.
! Note
Refer to the VP Series 2000 firmware and Ranger Pro plugin release notes to ensure compatibility
between devices and System 1.
Verify Network Joining
To verify that your devices have joined your network, use your network vendor's software. It can take
several hours for many VP Series 2000 devices to join your network.
If a device fails to join your network after several hours, try these options:
Verify/ Reboot the Device
• Reboot the device. This increases the frequency that the device attempts to join the network. (See
the "Reboot the Device" section).
• Verify the device is provisioned. VP Series 2000 devices must be in a provisioned state to join the
network.
• Verify the device's network connection. Dismount the device and position it closer to an access
point or router.
• If possible, improve the device's radio frequency communication by relocating it or reorienting the
device's axis or orientation relative to the access point or router.
