Debounce
Debounce establishes how to examine a signal’s transitions. The
factory default setting is to activate the input filtering to compen-
sate for unclean state transitions. To turn off the input filtering, set
the switch to the ON position.

Inputs
Counter switches 6 and 7 define the inputs as self-energized, sink-
ing (NPN), or sourcing (PNP).
A self-energized input does not require pull-up or pull-down devi-
ces for proper operation. A magnetic pick-up is a self-energized in-
put. The input threshold can be adjusted to compensate for low
amplitude signals.
Threshold
The counter has a selectable input threshold of 0.25V or 1.5V. For
sinking (NPN) or sourcing (PNP) inputs, set the threshold to 1.5V.
Hibernation Mode and Sleep Mode
While in hibernation mode, the radio does not operate. All SureCross devices powered from an integrated battery ship from the factory in
hibernation mode to conserve the battery. To wake the device, press and hold button 1 for five seconds. To put any FlexPower or integra-
ted battery SureCross radio into hibernation mode, press and hold button 1 for five seconds. The radio is in hibernation mode when the
LEDs stop blinking, but in some models, the LCD remains on for an additional minute after the radio enters hibernation mode. After a
device has entered hibernation mode, you must wait one minute before waking it.
During normal operation, the SureCross radio devices enter sleep mode after 15 minutes of operation. The radio continues to function,
but the LCD goes blank. To wake the device, press any button.
Event Counter Presets
The event counter input can be preset from the Node menu system or from a host system using Advanced Control Messages. The LCD
menu system on the Node allows the user to preset event counter values on each available counter input. From the host system, each
