Wireless Communications
The device connects to the Crestron network via the inNET EX
®
communications
protocol. Use the procedures outlined below to join or leave an inNET EX network and to
verify communications between the device and the control system.
Joining an inNET EX Network
Before a device can be used in a lighting system, it must rst join an inNET EX network.
To join an inNET EX network, the device must be acquired by an inNET EX gateway.
NOTE: A device can be acquired by only one gateway.
1. Put the inNET EX gateway into Acquire mode from the unit itself or from Crestron
Toolbox. Refer to the gateway’s manual at www.crestron.com/manuals for details.
NOTE: In an environment where multiple gateways are installed, only one
gateway should be in Acquire mode at any time.
2. Put the device into Acquire mode by doing the following:
a. Tap the button three times and then press and hold it down
(tap-tap-tap-press+hold) until the top LEDs on the device blink once (this can take
up to 10 seconds).
b. Release the button to start the acquire process. The LED blinks slowly to show
that the device is actively scanning the inNET EX network.
• The LED turns on for 5 seconds to show that the device has been successfully
acquired by the infiNET EX network.
• The LED blinks fast to indicate that the device was not successfully acquired
by the infiNET EX network. Tap the top button to acknowledge the failure. The
LEDs time out automatically. Ensure the gateway is in Acquire mode and
within range before attempting the acquire process again.
Leaving an inNET EX Network
To leave an inNET EX network, put the device into Acquire mode, as described in
“Joining an inNET EX Network” above, when no gateway is in Acquire mode.
Verifying Communications Status
To check the communication status of the device, tap the button three times and then
press and hold it down (tap-tap-tap-press+hold) for up to 2 seconds. The LED blinks to
indicate the communications status. Refer to the following table for details.
NOTE: Wireless networks composed predominantly of battery-powered devices may
need additional infiNET EX expanders, such as the CLW-EXPEX or GLA-EXPEX (sold
separately) or other non-battery powered infiNET EX devices, to ensure proper
functionality of the network and battery life for the devices. Refer to the Best Practices for
Installation and Setup of Crestron RF Products (Doc. 6689) at
www.crestron.com/manuals for complete system design guidelines or contact Crestron
True Blue Support for further assistance.
