Control Paradigms

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.

The difference between the two is that in a networked system there will be Zūm Net cabling connecting each ZUMNET-JBOX-*

In standalone applications, each room has one ZUMNET-JBOX-* with a number of connected ZUMLINK-* devices. There is no Zūm Net connecting different rooms, 

Networked systems can be further subdivided into "Networked with Default Program" or "Networked with Custom Program". 

Depending on which control paradigm is selected, there will be various impacts to the hardware cost, start-up cost, start-up complexity, ease of maintenance, control capabilities, integration with third-party systems, available user interfaces, and the ability to meet a provided sequence of operations.
