4: At the bottom of the screen tap the option to ‘Skip, Add Later’ to cancel out of the setup wizard. The site list will show the created site.
5: For large projects containing more than 28 areas, repeat these steps to create the additional sites needed for the project. For easy
identification, use naming conventions for large multi-site projects, i.e. “ABC Parking Garage First Floor”, ABC Parking Garage Second Floor, etc.
Step 2: Create Areas
Once the site is created, the site will be organized into logical areas. An area is a collection of devices that form an independent Bluetooth mesh
communication network. For most reliable operation, no more than 50 (40 best practice) provisioned devices should be assigned to any area.
There can be up to 28 areas created in one site.
When defining areas, keep in mind that devices in one area cannot communicate to devices in another area. Plan areas accordingly based on
device proximity and the need to share information. For example, if a wallstation needs to control multiple fixtures, the fixtures and wallstation
need to be in the same area, or, if one fixture’s occupancy sensor needs to turn another fixture, both fixtures would need to be in the same area.
In an interior application such as a classroom or office, each room is typically defined as an area allowing for logical organization and proper
operation.
Area creation does not require connection to the internet or to the devices.
To create areas:
1: Open the WaveLinx Lite Mobile Application.
2: In the site list, select a site.
3: Tap ‘ ’ to add an area.
4: Tap on the ‘Area Name’ field and then enter the desired name. Tap ‘Save’ to create the area.
Note: Area names must be unique within the same site.
5: Repeat these steps for other areas.
