34 +Each of these methods involves generating a Device Summary using the Device Discovery Tool in Toolbox. The Device Summary is a file which lists all devices that are discoverable on the network along with useful information such as their hostname, IP address, and MAC address.
35 +
36 +To generate a Device Summary in Toolbox:
37 +
38 +* Connect to the lighting network and open Device Discovery Tool in Toolbox
39 +* The Device Discovery tool will automatically report how many Ethernet devices have been discovered
40 +* Verify that the expected number of Ethernet devices have been discovered, including any TSWs, GLPACs, DIN-CENCN-2s, etc.
41 +** Note that only Crestron devices will appear in Device Discovery; non-Crestron devices (such as Pharos or Enttec DMX controllers) will not appear in Device Discovery Tool
42 +** If no devices are discovered, verify that your computer is connected to the network and your IP address is compatible with the network
43 +** If some devices are missing, there may be an issue with your DHCP server settings or the network wiring
44 +* Click the "Export..." button below the list of discovered devices
45 +** If this button says "Address Book", then Toolbox needs to be updated
46 +* Click the Write Device Summary button and save the Device Summary to your computer
47 +** Though saved as a text file, the Device Summary is actually a table of comma separated values
48 +** Renaming DeviceSummary.txt to DeviceSummary.csv will allow it to be opened and manipulated in common spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Excel or LibreOffice Calc

98 +Zūm Net devices have a two additional settings not present for other devices: Zūm/Cresnet mode and Master/Slave mode. ZUMNET-JBOXs should ship as Master devices in Zūm Mode from the factory, and this is typically the desired setting.

86 -ZUMNET-JBOXs should ship in "Zūm Mode" by default, also known as "App Mode" because this is the setting required to be able to configure Zūm Wired rooms using the Crestron Zūm Mobile App.
102 +Zūm Mode (also known as App Mode) is the default setting for new ZUMNET-JBOXs, and allows them to be configured from the Crestron Zūm App. If a ZUMNET-JBOX is put into Cresnet mode, it will no longer be able to be configured using the Crestron Zūm App and all internal logic will be disabled. Generally, Cresnet mode is only required if non-Zūm Link devices are connected to the ZUMNET-JBOX (e.g. a GL-EXP-DIMU-CN phase dimmer or C2N-CBD-P Cameo keypads) or if certain SHOWRUNNER™ features are required (such as changing the dimming response curve).
