Users’ Manual 1 Relay Node QUICK START GUIDE Generally, we send devices pre-configured. If your devices are pre-configured by us, please go through the user-friendly procedure to get started with your ER Beam system, which takes only a few minutes to get the process rolling. 1 Power on Gateway and turn on its inbuilt Wi-Fi network. 2 Connect your Android phone to the ER Beam Wi-Fi network. 3 Connect the Android cable to the phone first using the OTG adapter.
Users’ Manual 2 Relay Node SETTING UP WIRELESS RELAY NODE This section provides information on setting up a Relay Node to work with the offline ER Beam gateway. 2.1 Installation The Nodes can be directly affixed to a flat surface using M4 screws. However, for more sophisticated mounting scenarios, we recommend using the node bracket. The node bracket can be used to easily mount the node on flat surfaces, on pipes using U-bolts or cable-ties, or in other complicated settings.
Users’ Manual 2.2 Relay Node Node Setup 1 Connect the node antenna to the antenna bulkhead. 2 Switch off the Node and insert the battery while ensuring the correct polarity. 2.3 Configuring via the ER Beam Offline App 1 Obtain an Android phone and connect it to the ER_Beam Wi-Fi network. (See the Gateway section to learn about switching on the ER_Beam Wi-Fi network.) 2 Connect the Android smartphone to the Node via an OTG adapter.
Users’ Manual (i) Relay Node Search for the project, which you have already created once you open your ER app. Select and click the button to download the project and enter in to the project, where the project details would be mentioned.
Users’ Manual Relay Node (ii) Press “Reset” button on the Node itself. Click on “Setup Device” on the menu (at the bottom of screen), the app will show connected node information. If the connection is unsuccessful, press “Reset” button on Node and connect again. (iii) Optional Step: If Wireless Mesh (Relay) function is to be deployed, click on "Wireless Mesh" toggle button to enable. Once done, click on “Network Test”.
Users’ Manual Relay Node (iv) After clicking ‘Network Test’, it will take you to the next page “Scanning Network” which will scan the wireless signal strength (RSSI) between the Node and Gateway. (v) Repeat above steps to configure other sensors connected to the Node. (vi) Once all sensors are configured, click on “Enable Sensor” button. It will take you to next page “Scanning Network” which will scan the wireless signal strength (RSSI) between the Node and Gateway.
Users’ Manual (vii) (viii) Relay Node After receiving the Network Test information, if you need to, you can perform another network test by pressing the button located at the lower right corner. Next, click “Start Relay” button then the app will prompt, “Node commissioned”. Click OK.
Users’ Manual Relay Node (ix) Press the Project Sync button at lower right area to send all the configuration information back to the gateway. (x) If you would like to get the Node to immediately send a reading to the Gateway, press the “TEST” button on the device’s printed circuit board as shown below. (xi) For commissioning of additional Nodes, repeat the above steps.
Users’ Manual (xii) Relay Node Now proceed to the Gateway software dashboard on your Laptop and click on your project. Now you will be able to observe your commissioned devices under “Device Summary” Section. For further configuration, refer to the user’s manual # WI6002.117 on Gateway. FCC Caution: Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
