Adding Wireless Sensors

1.

Unlock the console if necessary to continue programming. See “Accessing the MAIN MENU for Programming”

on page 28.

2.

Select

SENSORS from the MAIN MENU and follow the steps in the following diagram.

3.

After you press the ENTER key, the

NEW WIRELESS SENSOR screen is displayed. The EA800 searches for new

wireless sensors, indicated by an arrow that moves from left to right across the screen. When an available

wireless sensor has been detected, it is listed in the

SELECT SENSOR screen as shown below.

4.

Confirm that all new (unprogrammed) wireless sensors are displayed on the

SELECT SENSOR screen, use the

arrow keys to select the sensor to be configured, then follow the prompts to configure all screens for that

sensor.

Note:

To enter numeric values, use the arrow keys. To advance the cursor to the next digit when entering

numeric values, press the NEXT soft key (F3). To return to a previous digit, press the PREV soft key

(F2).

The Hysteresis setting helps prevent alarms from being set and reset continually if the environment is at or near

the alarm set point by providing an acceptable variance. For example, if

HYSTERESIS is set at 1 and the sensor High

Alarm Limit is set at +158, the sensor reading must decrease to +157 (+158 minus 1) in order for the alarm condition

to reset to a no-alarm condition.
