CSI 9420
DEVICE NETWORK 
CONFIGURATION
In order to communicate with the 1420 Wireless Gateway, and ultimately the 
Information System, the transmitter must be configured to communicate with 
the wireless network. This step is the wireless equivalent of connecting wires 
from a transmitter to the information system.
Using a Field Communicator or AMS Device Manager, enter the Network ID 
and Join Key so that they match the Network ID and Join Key of the gateway 
and other devices in the network. If the Network ID and Join Key are not 
identical, the transmitter will not communicate with the network. The Network 
ID and Join Key may be obtained from the 1420 Wireless Gateway on the 
Setup>Network>Settings page on the web server.
The final device network configuration piece is the Update Rate. This by 
default is 30 minutes. This may be changed at commissioning, or at any time 
via AMS Device Manager or the 1420 Wireless Gateway’s web server. The 
Update Rate should be between 60 seconds and 1 hour for the 2.4 GHz CSI 
9420. For the 900 MHz CSI 9420, the Update Rate is 60 seconds and around 
18 hours.
When device configuration is completed, exit HART listen mode and replace 
the power module cover. Tighten the cover to the proper tension for safety 
approvals.
To access the Network Settings using a 375 Field Communicator, enter the 
following Fast Key Sequence: 1, 1, 7.
DEVICE 
CONFIGURATION 
OPTIONS
The CSI 9420 has a number of configuration options that affect how the 
device operates. These settings control such things as how often the 
measuremnt results are reported, how these results are reported, the number 
and type of sensor(s) installed, and how and when alerts are generated. The 
default configuration and process variable mappings is shown in Table 2-1. 
The possible sensor configurations are shown in Table 2-2.
