1 -The foundations of a quick, easy, and trouble-free startup are laid before construction even begins. Meeting with the electrical contractor prior to construction is important to establish a good working relationship, explain the requirements for a Crestron lighting control installation, and to exchange contact information so that any technical questions or concerns can be addressed prior to startup.

3 3  Though a pre-construction site-visit may seem like a wasted expense, by communicating expectations and requirements to the electrical contractor prior to startup you are actually able to save time and headache on-site. For large jobs especially, taking the time to ensure a proper installation will save hours or days during startup. Any time spent by a technician on-site tracking down serial numbers or troubleshooting/correcting a poor installation is a waste that could have been avoided with good communication and instruction prior to and throughout the installation process.

24 24  ** SNs should be collected for all networked devices (all Cresnet devices and Zūm Wired devices)
27 +*** If possible, SNs should be provided prior to startup. This way they can be put into the configuration prior to arriving on-site
25 25  ** The EC does not need to collect SNs for non-system devices (e.g. Crestron NS occupancy sensors, Steinel occupancy sensors, LDL photocells, and GLPPA-KP keypads
26 26  ** It is important to not just have a list of SNs on-site, but to be able to associate individual SNs with specific installed devices
27 27  ** The easiest way to do this is to write the SNs of installed devices on the floor plans or riser diagram as they are installed
