Managing a Street Lighting Network
Manually Installing a Street Lighting Network
You can manually install a street lighting network using the Segment Controller
Web pages (see Automatically Discovering Devices for information about
installing devices automatically). The installer should create a device list that
accurately records the device location (such as light pole number) and the Neuron
ID of the device installed at that location. For example, the installer can peel a
bar code sticker off the device and record its location next to the bar code, or just
record the device location and the Neuron ID. With the Segment Controller Web
pages, the network installation includes the following steps, which are each
described in the subsequent sections:
1.
Create the devices.
2.
Manually enter the locations and Neuron IDs of the devices to be
installed.
3.
Select the devices to be installed.
4.
Enable smart network management for the selected devices. After smart
network management is enabled, the Segment Controller automatically
loads, commissions, and sets the devices online. You can then check the
installation status using the LON Command Queue Web page.
