NOTE: The device does not usually detect a signal position
indoors, unless located near a window.
•
Is designed to be belt-mounted or carried over the shoulder via the
included case and strap, with the antenna facing away from the
user’s body
" WARNING
Wearing the SAFECONNECT Belt Bridge with the antenna
facing the user will degrade performance and may subject
the user to levels of emissions that exceed those allowed by
the FCC.
•
Is equipped with an ON/OFF button
•
When the unit is OFF, press the ON/OFF button for
approximately one second until the LEDs turn ON.
•
When the unit is ON, press the ON/OFF button for
approximately five seconds until the LEDs turn OFF.

•
Must be configured with the corresponding network ID and
frequency key to match the SAFESITE System with which it is
intended to operate
•
Must be set to a unique address for each device using the hex
rotary switch located behind the batteries. The unit address is a
function of the switch setting (TABLE 4).

Radio Information
This device contains transmitter modules FCC ID: KNY-6
231812519 and FCC ID: POOWML-C30XX The device complies
with Part 15 of the FCC rules.
FCC Notification
•
•
This radio complies with part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
•
•
2) This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
The radio has a maximum transmitted output power of 955 mW.
The device has been tested and meets the FCC SAR
requirements.
Sirius Instrument Compatibility
•
The Sirius Wireless Link is designed to operate with any sirius
instrument.
•
Operation in direct sunlight may be affected for any instrument with
a date code of that prior to F06.
•
Label (P/N 10074834) can be used to add solar immunity to any
Sirius instrument with a date code earlier than F06.
•
Install the label according to the instructions provided with
the label.
Unpacking the Units
1. Carefully remove components from packing to avoid damaging
sensitive electronic components
2. Search through packing material and inside all containers to
prevent discarding usable or valuable parts.
Getting Started
1. Install the Sirius MultiGas Instrument in the extended rubber boot.
2. Install the Sirius Wireless Link in the provided area at the top of the
instrument.
3. Verify that the SAFECONNECT belt Bridge has a unique device
address to avoid communications conflicts.
By factory default, units are preset in descending order (i.e. 16, 15,
14, 13, etc.) to avoid conflicts with existing systems.
4. Turn ON the Sirius Instrument using the ON/OFF/ACCEPT button
on the unit.
•
Wait for the instrument to cycle through the power ON
sequence and diagnostic procedures.
5. Turn ON the SAFECONNECT Wireless Belt Bridge by pressing the
ON/OFF button for approximately one second, until all three LEDs
are green.
6. Observe the power-ON LED sequence; all LEDs are green,
then orange, and then red.
7. Verify that the power LED is green.
•
The Comm LED turns orange when a link is established to the
SAFESITE Multi-Threat detection system.
•
The Wireless Link and SAFECONNECT Wireless Belt Bridge
must be located within six feet of one another.
8. Press the link button on the Sirius Wireless Link Device.
•
The Comm LED on the SAFECONNECT Belt bridge turns
green when the link is established.
• Observe that the Sirius Wireless Link is polling the instrument:
•
Sirius Version 1.0 Firmware: Red LEDs flash alternately
•
Sirius Version 1.2 Firmware and above: Heartbeat segment
flashes rapidly during poll (FIGURE 8).
•
Sirius instrument firmware version is displayed on
power-up sequence.
Figure 9. Heartbeat Segment Poll Indicator
•
The GPS LED changes from red, to orange, to green as a
location lock is established and the number of satellites
detected increases; this typically occurs:
• three minutes from initial operation after replacing batteries
• 30 seconds from subsequent starts.
•
The system is now operational.
NOTE: Refer to the Sirius MultiGas Detector and the SAFESITE
Multi-Threat Detection System manuals (P/Ns 10048887 &
10057028, respectively) for additional information.
