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.

15 -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).

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.

137 +
138 +1. Ensure that the ZUMNET-JBOX for the room is in Primary / Zūm Mode (see below) so that it will re-address all connected Zūm Link devices
139 +1. Connect to the ZUMNET-JBOX in Network Device Tree View and verify that all expected Zūm Link devices are online and that there are no conflicting/duplicate IDs
140 +1*. We have run into issues where devices will not always be uniquely addressed, typically as a result of cabling termination issues (incorrect pin-out or use of "EZ RJ45" passthrough connectors)
141 +1*. Occasionally, ZUMLINK-KP will be stuck at ID 03 after the ZUMNET-JBOX has been put into Primary/App Mode - in these cases, briefly disconnecting the keypad, reconnecting it, and waiting a few minutes will allow the keypad's address to be changed
142 +1. Use the Zūm Wired .puf file or the Firmware Updating Script tool built into ShowRunner™ to update all the ZUMNET-JBOXs
143 +1*. Note that as part of the update process, the ZUMNET-JBOX will reboot, which will cycle the connected load and briefly interrupt Ethernet connection to any downstream ZUMNET-JBOXs or other Ethernet devices, which in rare instances will cause the firmware update to fail
144 +1. Verify that all the ZUMNET-JBOXs have successfully updated by using the Device Discovery Tool device export and checking the reported firmware version
145 +1. If any ZUMNET-JBOXs failed to update, try to update it again in case the update failure was caused by an upstream device rebooting

159 +ZUMNET-JBOXs can be in either "Primary" or "Secondary" mode.

There are two scenarios in which a ZUMNET-JBOX should be configured in "Secondary" mode:

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).

186 +* Certain ShowRunnerCLC™ features are required (such as changing the dimming response curve)
187 +* On older versions of firmware, Cresnet mode was required if non-Zūm Link devices were connected to the ZUMNET-JBOX (e.g. a GL-EXP-DIMU-CN phase dimmer or C2N-CBD-P Cameo keypads)
188 +** This is no longer the case on recent firmware, and ZUMNET-JBOXs with Cresnet hardware connected to them can be left in Zūm/App mode, though the Cresnet hardware will not be able to function without the control processor
189 +

191 +
192 +* A keypad with actions defined in the Zūm App will perform actions defined in ShowRunnerCLC™ in addition to those App-defined actions while the ZUMNET-JBOX is in Zūm Mode
193 +** This is useful when trying to add functionality to a keypad, such as allowing the keypad to control devices not available in the Zūm App (e.g. shades, loads that are controlled by other ZUMNET-JBOXs or Cresnet load controllers, etc.), but can cause confusion in other situations where there are conflicts between the App-defined actions and the ShowRunnerCLC™-defined actions (e.g. if a rocker keypad with the default All On and All Off actions defined in the App is programmed in ShowRunnerCLC™ to act as a single load toggle, it will not work correctly)

217 +Zūm Mode Auto Switch is a feature introduced by Crestron in November of 2022 with .puf firmware v1.04.05 (device firmware 1.004.00005). This feature is intended to address concerns that arose from projects using custom programs with ZUMNET-JBOX-* devices in CNET Mode. Previously, if a device in CNET Mode lost connection to the processor, then it would be impossible to maintain any sort of control over the lighting. With Zūm Mode Auto Switch enabled, a ZUMNET-JBOX running in CNET Mode will automatically switch to App Mode and process local logic in the event that it loses connection to the processor.
