Configuration
NOTE: To preserve battery life, sensors are shipped
in the OFF position. To activate the sensor,
remove the access plate at the top of the
sensor to access the J1 jumper and remove
the jumper. The sensor is now activated.
Save the jumper by putting it across one pin,
so it can be re-used if the sensor needs to be
powered off.
QPA4292.EWSC (CO2) sensors do not require
jumper removal for power-up.
J1 Jumper (QAA, QFA, and 563-083)
It is easiest to configure all the sensors for a
deployment at one time.
NOTE: The gateway must be configured to
communicate with a terminal emulator per
Series 4292 Wireless Sensor System User
Guide (Document No. A6V11544782)
before attempting to configure sensors.
1. Using the terminal emulator function, select S
from the main menu.
2. Attach the sensor to the gateway using the
USB cable supplied with the gateway.
On the QPA4292.EWSC CO
2
sensor, the
cover must be removed to access the USB
port. Remove and discard the Phillips head
screw in the center of the back cover. Be
careful not to damage locking tabs when
removing/installing the cover.
Other sensor USB ports can be accessed
through the cut-out on the back of the
housing.
During configuration each sensor is assigned an ID
that is activated in the gateway. This number should
be written on the label inside the sensor enclosure. It
is also advisable to record the communication
channel and network ID on the sensor.
Installation
NOTE: Care should be taken when mounting
sensors to get the maximum communication
range. For the best range, sensors should be
mounted on drywall, wood, plastic, glass or
other non-metallic and non-masonry surface.
1. Locate the sensor approximately 5 feet
(1.5 m) above floor level and at least 1.75
feet (50 cm) from adjoining walls.
2. Do not install on an outside wall, behind
curtains, near heating/cooling sources, or
where exposed to direct sunlight.
