3 -Zūm Net devices are part of Crestron's latest Zūm Wired system, acting as a the main lighting controller for a Zūm Wired room. In networked applications of Zūm Wired, they also act as bridges connecting the local Zūm Link devices in each room to the overall lighting network throughout the building. Since Zūm Link and Cresnet are [[interchangeable>>https://wiki.chiefintegrations.com/SHOWRUNNER%E2%84%A2%20Setup%20Guide/Wiring%20Guide/Wiring%20Overview/Z%C5%ABm%20Net/#HZ16BmLink]], and Zūm Net is an Ethernet protocol, this means that Zūm Net devices can be thought of as single-net DIN-CENCN-2s. As of Summer 2022, there are only two Zūm Net devices that have been announced and are in production: the ZUMNET-JBOX-16A-LV 0-10V load controller and the ZUMNET-JBOX-DALI DALI load controller. Configuring these devices for use with SHOWRUNNER™ is identical, so they will be referred to collectively as ZUMNET-JBOXs for the purposes of this article.

5 -Much like DIN-CENCN-2s in SHOWRUNNER™ installations, ZUMNET-JBOXs identify themselves to the processor via their IP-ID, so the specific IP address of any given ZUMNET-JBOX does not matter as long as it is in the same range as the processor and does not conflict with any other devices on the network. If hosted devices are moved between ZUMNET-JBOXs, or if the ZUMNET-JBOX needs to have a different IP-ID than it was initially assigned, the configuration will need to be updated (see below). Chief Integrations typically provides an SRTakeoff.xlsx spreadsheet which will list all the Zūm Net and Zūm Link devices and their associated IP-IDs. If no takeoff is provided, then the processor's IP table can be checked by running the ##ipt -t ##command from the processor after the configuration is loaded. ZUMNET-JBOX's will typically start with IP-IDs in the 30-5F range, but can potentially exceed this range.

9 9  Configuring ZUMNET-JBOXs must be done over Ethernet, and is easiest to do once all ZUMNET-JBOXs have been installed, powered up, and connected to the lighting network. (It is not necessary for all Zūm Link devices to be installed in order to configure ZUMNET-JBOXs.)
10 10  
11 11  Since there is no option to configure ZUMNET-JBOXs via USB, a DHCP server is required. There are three options for DHCP servers:
12 12  
13 13  * Using a processor with a Control Subnet (only available on certain processors)
14 -* Using the built-in [[SHOWRUNNER™ DHCP Server>>doc:SHOWRUNNER™ User Guide & Wiki.Troubleshooting.DHCP Server.WebHome]] (available on all processors running SHOWRUNNER™ v3.009 or newer)

16 16  
17 17  Most devices (DIN-CENCN-2, TSW, ZUMNET-JBOXs) rely only on IP-ID to identify themselves to the processor, but some devices (such as GLPACs, DMX controllers, and other processors) have IP addresses that are explicitly defined in the configuration file. The DHCP server should be configured to assign IP addresses that are visible to the processor, but excluded from assigning these explicitly defined IP addresses if possible.

63 63  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.
