Setting up a RingCast - LSM 3.5 SP3 Business + Prof.

The description below tells you how to configure a RingCast. A RingCast allows a RouterNode2 input event to be relayed to other RouterNode2s in the same WaveNet radio network at the same time. In this example, an emergency release is to be implemented on locking devices. All connected locking devices should open as soon as a fire alarm system triggers Input 1 on a RouterNode2. Each locking device will then remain open until they receive an explicit remote opening command.

Obviously, a RingCast can also be used to perform other tasks such a block lock function, remote opening and gunman attack function.

This example requires a configured WaveNet radio network with two RouterNode2s. A locking device is connected to each RouterNode2. All locking devices should be opened immediately as soon as Input 1 on a RouterNode2 is actuated briefly. This gives people access to all rooms, so that they can seek protection from fire or smoke.

NOTE

If RouterNode2s are networked using Ethernet, RingCast is only supported by models which were supplied from about 2017. A RouterNode2 tries to establish an Ethernet connection to another RouterNode2 but fails. It then tries to establish the new connection wirelessly. The radio communication range is up to 30 m. This depends on the surroundings, so it cannot be guaranteed.
