The lighting control program maintains an internal database of controlled hardware (i.e. load controllers, keypads, sensors, etc.) which are each given a unique //address//. These unique addresses, as defined in the program, include the //device connection ID// (a.k.a. Cresnet ID) of the controlled device, the //device host id// (i.e., the ID of the device where the Cresnet or Zūm Link cable is landed), and the //device host branch// (for cases where the host device has multiple Nets, such as the DIN-CENCN-2). 6 6 ... ... @@ -8,55 +8,25 @@ 8 8 9 9 Serial numbers should be collected by the electrical contractor during installation and provided to the lighting controls technician prior to startup. 10 10 11 -= Addressing Devices in S howRunnerCLC™ =9 +=== Addressing Devices in SHOWRUNNER™ === 12 12 13 -Cresnet devices can be addressed from the S howRunnerCLC™ UI if their serial numbers are known.
