Overview
Overview
The GS22X series of products are in many ways
similar to a display in that they act as a base station
for LSI’s GS series line of wireless sensors.
However they are not limited to crane applications
but can also be used in a wide range of industrial
process monitoring situations. There is no integrated
display; the system is intended for bridging LSI’s
wireless sensors onto an existing automotive or
industrial automation network. Depending on the
derivative, the GS22X bridges onto a CAN bus or a
RS232. The primary way of configuring sensors into
the system is via a USB cable and end user PC
software.

Start-Up
Start-Up
The GS22X series products have been programmed
for the sensors supplied in the shipping box. The
GS22X powers up with its green lights flashing, this
indicates that the receiver is waking up programmed
sensors and creating a radio communication link
with each. Once a reliable radio communication
network is established, the green light will turn off
and flash only when communicating with sensors.
This process may take up to 60 seconds.
