Ease of Start-Up and Documentation
Every SHOWRUNNER™ job comes with a number of Chief Tools™ to simplify the start-up process and enable Agents and Technicians to for networked Zūm Wired systems. These tools include:
- SRTakeoff spreadsheet provides the Technician with one location to view device addresses, record serial numbers, and track any issues discovered during start-up
- Zūm Wired Load Script generator enables technicians to easily create load scripts to streamline necessary configuration tasks based on the DeviceSummary.txt generated by Toolbox

Best Practices for Zūm Wired with SHOWRUNNER™
Though it is possible to design a Zūm Wired system to use the standard ZUM-HUB4 program and then import rooms from SHOWRUNNER™, it is not recommended as it adds the expense of a custom program without taking advantage of any of the added functionality that SHOWRUNNER™ has to offer.
Instead, to take full advantage of everything that SHOWRUNNER™ has to offer, follow these best practices:
- Design the system to use SHOWRUNNER™ as the main program
- Set ZUMNET-JBOX-* devices in CNET mode after any App-specific configurations have been made
