Bind the R70SR Serial Data Radio to Form a Network
To create your network, bind the R70SR to the designated master radio.
Binding the serial data radios ensures all radios within a network communicate only with the other radios within the same network. The serial data
radio master automatically generates a unique binding code when the radio master enters binding mode. This code is transmitted to all radios within
range that are also in binding mode. After a repeater/slave is bound, the repeater/slave radio accepts data only from the master to which it is bound.
The binding code defines the network, and all radios within a network must use the same binding code.
1. Apply power to all radios and place the R70SR radio at least two meters away from the master radio.
2. Remove the cover. See
3. On the master radio: Triple-click the binding button to put the master radio into binding mode.
Both LEDs flash red.
4. On the R70SR: Triple-click the binding button to put the R70SR into binding mode.
The radio enters binding mode and searches for any master radio in binding mode. While searching for the master radio, the two red LEDs
flash alternately. When the radio finds the master radio and is bound, both red LEDs are solid for four seconds, then both red LEDs flash
simultaneously four times.
5. Re-install the R70SR's cover.
6. Repeat steps 3 through 5 for as many radios as are needed for your network.
7. On the master radio: After all radios are bound, double-click the binding button to exit binding mode on the master.
The network begins to form after the master data radio exits binding mode.
8. On the master radio: Re-install the cover to protect the button and radio board.
Child Radios Synchronize to the Parent Radios
The synchronization process enables a Sure Cross radio to join a wireless network formed by a master radio. A simple point-to-point network with
one master radio and one slave radio synchronizes quickly after power up; larger MultiHop networks may take a few minutes to synchronize. First, all
radios within range of the master data radio wirelessly synchronize to the master radio. These radios may be slave radios or repeater radios.
After repeater radios are synchronized to the master radio, any radios that are not in sync with the master but can "hear" the repeater radio will
synchronize to the repeater radios. Each repeater “family” that forms a wireless network path creates another layer of synchronization process. The
table below details the process of synchronization with a parent. When testing the devices before installation, verify the radio devices are at least two
meters apart or the communications may fail.
