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
by being 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, as described in its manual at www.crestron.com/manuals.
NOTE: In an environment where multiple gateways are installed, only one
gateway should be in Acquire mode at any time.
2. Place the device into Acquire mode.
a. Tap the button three times, and then press and hold it down
(tap-tap-tap-press+hold) until the LED on the device blinks 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. Press the button to acknowledge failure to acquire
the infiNET EX network. Ensure the gateway is in Acquire mode and within
range before attempting the acquire process again.
3. Once all devices have been acquired, take the gateway out of Acquire mode. Refer
to the gateway’s operations guide for details.
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 communications 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 green LED
blinks to indicate the communications status. Refer to the following table for details.
LED COMMUNICATIONS STATUS
Turns on for 5 seconds The device is communicating with the control system.
Blinks three times The device is communicating with the gateway, but the
gateway is not communicating with the control system.
Blinks twice The device was previously joined to the network but is
not communicating with the gateway.
Blinks once The device is not joined to the network.
TROUBLE PROBABLE CAUSE(S) CORRECTIVE ACTION
The LED blinks
continuously after trying
to acquire the device.
The acquire process
failed because the device
was out of range from
the gateway.
Move the device closer to
the gateway and attempt
the acquire process again.
The gateway is not in
Acquire mode.
Place the gateway into
Acquire mode and
attempt to acquire the
device again.
The unit does not extend
RF range.
The unit is not acquired. Place the gateway into
Acquire mode and
attempt to acquire the
device again.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Compliance Statement
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
CAUTION: Changes or modications not expressly approved by the manufacturer responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase separation between the equipment and the receiver
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
Industry Canada (IC) Compliance Statement
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type
and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential
radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the
equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful
communication.

Industrie Canada (IC) Déclaration de conformité
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio
exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) l’appareil ne doit
pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique
subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.
Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner
avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l’émetteur par Industrie
Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l’intention des autres
utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée
équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l’intensité nécessaire à l’établissement d’une communication
satisfaisante.
