IMPORTANT
Prodigy 1.0 and Prodigy 2.0 are not compatible with each
other. Do not implement the two protocol versions within the
same network.
If you are expanding an existing network using new Fluidmesh
hardware components, make sure that all components are
compatible with each other by:
1. Upgrading all network components within the same
network to firmware version 6.5 or higher, and:
2. Configuring all network components within the same
network to operate using either Prodigy 1.0 or Prodigy
2.0.
Use of Prodigy 1.0 is only recommended if the network
contains older Fluidmesh devices that are not compatible with
Prodigy 2.0.
Select the Prodigy version you need by using the General
Mode page of the Configurator interface.
RACER
RACER™ is Fluidmesh's web-based configuration portal. It is the primary
interface with which to configure Fluidmesh radio devices.
You can operate RACER using any internet-connected computer with a
web browser.
IMPORTANT
For a detailed description of the differences between RACER
and the local Configurator interface, refer to “Device
configuration using the configurator interface” (page 50).
3.2.3. Point-to-point wireless bridge
A point-to-point wireless bridge allows two local networks to communicate
with each other. A simplified example is shown in Figure 1 (page 17).
In context of the overall network architecture, the two local networks are
called network segments.
