Quick Start Guide for Q45 Networks
Step 4: Verify Radio Communication
To verify the Gateway and Wireless Q45 Sensor are communicating:
•Gateway's LED 1 is solid green.
•Until communication is established with the Gateway, the Q45's red LED flashes.
•After communication is established, the Q45's green LED flashes.
Step 5: Test the Wireless Q45 Sensor Operation
Mount the Wireless Q45 Sensor in your application and view the yellow
LED, which indicates the sensor’s output.
After 15 minutes of inactivity, the LED turns off to conserve power. To
activate the LED, push the button once.
For alignment instructions, refer to the Wireless Q45 Sensor’s datasheet.
Step 3: Bind the Wireless Q45 Sensors to the Gateway
Binding Wireless Q45 Sensors to their Gateway ensures the Q45s only exchange data with the Gateway they are bound
to. To create your network, bind the Wireless Q45 Sensors to the Gateway and assign them a unique Node address.
1. On the Gateway, triple-click button 2. Both LEDs flash red.
2. On the Gateway, use both rotary dials to assign the Node address for the Q45. Use the left dial for the left digit
and the right dial for the right digit. For example, to assign your Q45 to Node 01, set the left dial to 0 and the
right dial to 1. The Gateway’s LCD displays BINDING and NOD 1. (When using the default Gateway DIP switch
positions, only Nodes 01, 02, and 03 will be mapped to the Gateway’s outputs.)
3. On the Wireless Q45 Sensor, triple-click the button. While in binding mode, the red and green LEDs flash
alternately. After the Q45 is bound, the LEDs flash together four times. The Q45 automatically exits binding
mode.
4. Label the sensor with the Q45’s Node address.
5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for as many Wireless Q45 Sensors as are needed for your network.
6. On the Gateway, single-click button 2 to exit binding mode.
Step 2: Apply Power
Wire Color Gateway
V+ Brown +10 to 30V dc Input
V−Blue dc common (GND)
Connecting dc power to the communication pins will
cause permanent damage.

To conserve battery power, the Wireless Q45 Sensor ships from the
factory in storage mode. To wake the Q45:
1. Loosen the clamp plate on the top of the Wireless Q45
Sensor and lift the cover.
2. Press and hold the
button for five seconds.
When the Q45 is on, the
red LED flashes. Button
