f. Turn On/Off switch to ON position (For Remote Gateway 2
this is marked as a I on the faceplate).
g. The device will attempt to join any available SynapSense
Wireless Sensor Networks. For more information on
network formation, node placement, please see the
SynapSense Wireless Network User Guide.
Troubleshooting and Diagnostics:
1. No lights appear when batteries are inserted or On/Off switch is turned
to ON position
Please be sure the battery orientation is correct and that the
batteries are fresh and charged.
2. A solid red light appears (Does not apply to Remote Gateway 2)
The battery on the device has fallen below allowable operating
level and the device has suspended its self to prevent network
problems.
3. The red light flashes briefly every 5 seconds (Does not apply to Remote
Gateway 2)
The node is currently not associated with an active wireless
sensor network. Make sure the node is in range of either an
active gateway device or another network-associated SynapNet
Node. A node may take up to 20 minutes to fully join an
existing network.
Nodes may fall out of an active network if their signal strength
is weak. Consider topology changes such as the addition of
repeaters of the movement of other nodes in order to improve
signal conditions. For more information, see the SynapSense
Wireless Sensor Network User’s Guide.
4. The node appears to have stopped sending on the network (Does not
apply to Remote Gateway 2)
Check for the flashing red light (above) to see if the node has
somehow fallen out of the network.
The node can be reset without the removal of the battery
comportment by the use of a magnetic reset tool, or any
medium powered magnet. While watching the diagnostic light
area, move the magnet along the long edge opposite the
