Controller to Client Conversion
This section is for systems that contain multiple TE front ends on the same network. 
By default each TE front end is congured as a controller. When multiple TE front ends are in the same network, only ONE can be the controller. All 
others must be clients.
This step will need to be performed on all TE units that will NOT be the controller on the network. All EP-EXN’s are pre-congured as clients and do 
not need to go through this step.
Note: All TE controllers and clients must be operating on the same software revision. System failure may occur if not updated to the same software revision. Refer to Nortek 
Security and Control technical support for assistance in determining and/or updating the software revision.
