Addresses.

Multiple Gateway Installations

A more commercial application of the NXR-ZGW-PRO is having multiple gateways and specific devices

operating in close proximity of each other. Devices and repeaters of different networks can operate side-by-

side without interference. In the case of multiple networks in an area, it is best to use different channels for

each PAN, or to select a channel of "Any". "Any" will let a gateway spot other PANs in the area and choose the

best available channel for operation.

Addresses.
