Use the procedures outlined below to join or leave an inNET EX network and to verify communications between the device and the control system.Joining an inNET EX NetworkBefore a device can be used in a lighting system, it must rst join an inNET EX network. To join an inNET EX network, the device must be acquired by an inNET EX gateway.NOTE:  A device can be acquired by only one gateway.  1.  Put the inNET EX gateway into Acquire mode from the unit itself or from Crestron Toolbox. Refer to the gateway’s manual at www.crestron.com/manuals for details.NOTE:  In an environment where multiple gateways are installed, only one gateway should be in Acquire mode at any time.  2.  Put the device into Acquire mode by doing the following:  a. Tap the button three times and then press and hold it down (tap-tap-tap-press+hold) until the top LEDs on the device blink once (this can take up to 10 seconds).  b. Release the button to start the acquire process. The LED blinks slowly to show that the device is actively scanning the inNET EX network.  •  The LED turns on for 5 seconds to show that the device has been successfully acquired by the infiNET EX network.  •  The LED blinks fast to indicate that the device was not successfully acquired by the infiNET EX network. Tap the top button to acknowledge the failure. The LEDs time out automatically. Ensure the gateway is in Acquire mode and within range before attempting the acquire process again.Leaving an inNET EX NetworkTo leave an inNET EX network, put the device into Acquire mode, as described in “Joining an inNET EX Network” above, when no gateway is in Acquire mode.Verifying Communications StatusTo check the communication status of the device, tap the button three times and then press and hold it down (tap-tap-tap-press+hold) for up to 2 seconds. The LED blinks to indicate the communications status. Refer to the following table for details.NOTE:  Wireless networks composed predominantly of battery-powered devices may need additional infiNET EX expanders, such as the CLW-EXPEX or GLA-EXPEX (sold separately) or other non-battery powered infiNET EX devices, to ensure proper functionality of the network and battery life for the devices.
