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

50 -Once the Device Summary has been generated, proceed to identifying each ZUMNET-JBOX using the hostname, SN/MAC, or Device Tree View methods described below.

54 -The Crestron Zūm App is used to configure the internal logic of Zūm Wired rooms. This internal logic determines the room behavior when ZUMNET-JBOXs are used in standalone applications or if communication to the processor is lost. Even on SHOWRUNNER™ jobs with a central program running the lighting controls, it is best practice to configure the internal logic to match as closely as possible the SHOWRUNNER™ logic in order to minimize disruption to end-users in the event of a processor or network failure.

56 -In addition to configuring default room logic, the Crestron Zūm App can be used to change the hostname of the ZUMNET-JBOX for each room. By default, the hostname for a ZUMNET-JBOX is the model followed by the last six digits of the MAC address, e.g. "ZUMNET-JBOX-16A-LV-F2DA94". If you or the electrical contractor already intend to configure the internal logic each ZUMNET-JBOX, it would be a good idea to also change the hostname to something more identifiable.

58 -To change the hostname using the Crestron Zūm App:
59 -
60 -* Connect to the ZUMNET-JBOX in the App
61 -* Tap "Room Settings"
62 -* Tap "Network"
63 -* Tap the Hostname field and edit the Hostname
64 -* Scroll to the bottom of the page and tap "Save settings"
65 -* Tap "OK" to apply the changes and reboot the ZUMNET-JBOX
66 -** Note that rebooting the JBOX will cause the lights to briefly cut out
67 -
68 -If all hostnames have been set, then it becomes very easy to know which DHCP assigned IP address is associated with each room using the Device Summary. Generate a Device Summary with the new hostnames and proceed to IP configuration.

120 -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).
