The Advanced Configuration tab (Figure 16) offers more detailed

configuration options for the active module.

1. The Local Address box shows the module’s local address in

hexadecimal format. This can be changed by typing a new hex value.

2. The Status Line Mask sets the status lines as either inputs or outputs.

If the box is checked then the line is an input.

3. The Latch Mask determines if the status line outputs are latched or

momentary. If the box is checked then the output is latched. This

setting has no effect on lines that are configured as inputs.

4. The Paired Modules Window lists all of the modules that are paired

with the active module and their Permissions Mask.

5. The Address box enables manual pairing of a module. Enter an

address into this box and press the Set Module button to add the

address to the list.

6. The Permissions Mask determines whether a specific module is

authorized to control a specific status line output. If the box is checked

then the module is authorized to control that line.

7. The Set Module button adds the address and Permissions Mask to

the list. If a current module is selected, then the Permissions can be

updated. The Remove module button removes the selected module

from the list. The Remove All Modules button removes all of the

modules from the list.

8. The Interrupt Mask sets the conditions under which an interrupt is to

be generated on the CMD_DATA_OUT line. The Message Select menu

sets the type of message that triggers the interrupt when the Selected

Message Ready box is checked.

9. The TX Power Level Source configures how the transmitter output

power is set. It uses either the voltage on the LVL_ADJ line or the value

in the box. The accepted range of values is -20 to +12.

10. The Transmitter Mode selection sets whether the module transmits

command messages when a status line input is asserted or when it

receives a software command.

11. The Receiver Mode selection turns the receiver on or off for power

savings. If the module is set as an Initiating Unit only with all status lines

as inputs, then the receiver is disabled by default.

12. The Status Line Direction selection sets how the status lines are

configured as inputs and outputs. Either the C0 and C1 hardware lines

are used to set them in groups of 4 or the Status Line Mask is used to

set them individually.

13. The Latch Status Outputs selection configures how the latched or

momentary operation for each status line output is set. Either the

LATCH_EN hardware line is used to set all of the lines the same way or

the Latch Mask is used to set the lines individually.

14. If the Respond to Request Remote Sample is enabled, the module

automatically responds to the request with a packet than contains the

values determined by the MType field in the received packet.

15. The Custom Data box enables a custom 2-byte value to be loaded

into the module to be transmitted with each control message or

Acknowledge with Data packet.

16. The Duty Cycle configuration sets the interval and Keep on times for

automatically cycling power to the receiver.

17. The Module Identity box displays the module type, firmware version

and serial number of the active module.

18. The Read All button reads all of the current configurations from the

active module.
