Network Setting
The network address can be used to create separate networks using multiple gateways (that are in
close proximity with one another). The network is set using the SignalFire Toolkit. The Network
Group setting is used when more than 8 networks are needed. Both
the network and network group must match those of other nodes
for nodes to communicate.
Checking Remote Nodes
If one or more remote nodes are configured with the correct network settings they will send their data
to the gateway. Clicking Refresh List will populate the list with all connected remote nodes. Double
clicking on one of the nodes in the list will bring up additional detail including the register data from
the remote node.
The gateway displays the node type, node name (is one is programmed into the need), RSSI signal strength,
programmed node check-in interval, the Time To Live (TTL), and the nodes radio and main firmware versions.
The RSSI and TTL values are color coded (Green, yellow, orange, red) to indicate relative link quality of a node.
The ‘TTL current’ indicates the number of minutes remaining until the node will be timed out of the gateway if
no updates are received. The ‘TTL max’ indicates the maximum TTL for that node, the ‘TTL current’ will be set
to the ‘TTL Max’ each time an update is received from that node.
