Acquiring the
infNET EX
device
Crestron infiNET EX devices can communicate with a CEN-RFGW-EX
only if they have been acquired by that CEN-RFGW-EX. Acquire mode
can be activated from Crestron Toolbox (recommended) or with the
ACQUIRE button on the CEN-RFGW-EX.
NOTE: To access this in Toolbox, select Functions | infiNET EX
Gateway…. Refer to the Toolbox Help file and search for “infiNET EX
Gateway” for more details.
NOTE: Use Toolbox to set the RF channel before starting the acquire
process. The default RF channel is 15. If the RF channel on a device is
changed, it must be acquired again.
NOTE: Acquire mode can be activated approximately 15 seconds after
applying power to the CEN-RFGW-EX.
NOTE: In an environment with multiple gateways, only one gateway
should be in Acquire mode at a time.
NOTE: The CEN-RFGW-EX must be placed in Acquire mode before an
infiNET EX device is placed in Acquire mode.
To acquire an infiNET EX device via the ACQUIRE button on the
CEN-RFGW-EX:
1. Press ACQUIRE on the CEN-RFGW-EX to enter Acquire mode.
The accompanying LED illuminates, indicating the unit is ready to
link to infiNET EX devices.
NOTE: Acquire mode automatically deactivates after one hour.
This default timeout period can be changed from Toolbox.
2. Bring the infiNET EX device within range of the gateway and
place it in Acquire mode as described in its manual. The device is
automatically acquired by the gateway within two minutes after it
enters Acquire mode.
3. Repeat step 2 for each infiNET EX device to be acquired.
4. Press ACQUIRE on the CEN-RFGW-EX to exit Acquire mode.
The LED turns off.
