7		-Crestron Zūm Wired is a distributed lighting control system that has various global and local control options. Zūm Wired uses industry standard dimming protocols (DALI, 0-10V, and phase dimming) and advanced sensors to provide automated control of a building or facility's lighting. With certain designs, it is also possible to integrate control over DMX fixtures, building management systems, and other third-party devices (such as motorized shades and HVAC).

13		-Zūm Wired systems consist of ZUMNET-JBOX-* room controllers and a number of connected ZUMLINK-* devices. ZUMLINK-* devices can be ZUMLINK-JBOX-* load controllers, ZUMLINK-OCC-* presence detectors, or ZUMLINK-KP-R-W keypads (wall switches). ZUMNET-JBOX-* and ZUMLINK-JBOX-* devices have additional inputs for third-party presence detectors, 0-10V analog photocells, and contact-closure local override.

30		-ZUMNET-JBOX-* devices can be set to be either the Primary room controller or a Secondary load controller. There must only be one Primary ZUMNET-JBOX on a given Zūm Link bus, and in a networked system the Primary ZUMNET-JBOX is the one that should be connected to the Zūm Net.

32		-* In Primary mode, the ZUMNET-JBOX acts as the Zūm Link host, and is able to detect all connected Zūm Link devices. If connected to in Crestron Toolbox, a Primary ZUMNET-JBOX can be used to view and manually address any connected ZUMLINK-* devices. While in App mode, a ZUMNET-JBOX in Primary mode is the logical room controller for the space and is the device that should be used for configuration via the Zūm App.
33		-* In Secondary mode, the ZUMNET-JBOX acts as if it were a ZUMLINK-JBOX. It does not process any room control logic, and when connected to via Crestron Toolbox it will not be able to see any other ZUMLINK-* devices. Using Secondary mode is rare, and should only be used in cases where a spare ZUMNET-JBOX is being used to add a load to another ZUMNET-JBOX or replace a ZUMLINK-JBOX that has been lost or damaged.

43		-Designs for Zūm Wired systems are broadly categorized as either "standalone" or "networked" designs. Both standalone and networked systems should be designed with one ZUMNET-JBOX-* per room or logical control space connected to a number of ZUMLINK-* devices within that same space. In networked systems, there is also a control processor which provides centralized control of the entire system. ZUMNET-JBOX-* must be daisy-chained together with Zūm Net and then connected back to the processor. In standalone applications, there is no processor and no Zūm Net cabling connecting different rooms to each other.
	40	+Designs for Zūm Wired systems can be broadly described as being either "standalone" or "networked". Networked systems can be further subdivided into "Networked with Default Program" or "Networked with Custom Program".
