Changing node-ID

Hardware
1

I tried to change the Node_ID for my devices but it didn’t seem to take.

With a single device on I followed the instructions to set a device into config and changed this nodeID to the MAC address. Am I missing something?

The device stays as NodeID 0, along with the other devices on the network.

Hi @danempiric the valid input for Node ID is 0 to 255.

Thanks,

thanks, to update it for the device, do I change it in node-red and then put the device in config mode?

Should I be doing this with only one device connected to the gateway at a time?

Hi @danempiric the steps are:

  1. Access to Wireless Device node.
  2. Enable the Auto config and Wait for Network formation check boxes.
  3. Enable the Node ID and Delay check box (Active).
  4. Enter the new valid Node ID.
  5. Click on Done and then click on Deploy buttons.
  6. Put the Wireless Gateway node into configuration mode (by clicking the embedded left button).
  7. Put the Sensor into configuration mode.

Let me share you a git for your reference:
