RRFBs are unique. Once powered up they will apply default Network Settings to where all local RRFBs can communicate with each other. RRFBs that are in the immediate vicinity (line of sight of up to 1000’) will trigger each other when using these default Network Settings.

If you have crosstalk between multiple crossings nearby you will want to follow the steps for breaking the Link and creating a new one as shown in the MX Field App guide.
