ZigBee Pairing Procedure
Appendix A
Binding ZigBee Sensors to Room Controllers
in Network with Multiple MPMs
When pairing a ZigBee sensor with a Room Controller that is part of a network that involves multiple MPMs, it is necessary for all of
those MPMs to be networked using IP/Ethernet (UDP) or Canbus, and to be functioning as a coordinator for their local
ZigBee network of Room Controllers.
If a Room Controller is instead bound to an MPM acting as a router on a wireless network using ZigBee, the pairing procedure for the
ZigBee sensors described in this document will not work. For this reason, it is not recommended to use the ZigBee wireless networking
for MPMs feature at the same time that ZigBee wireless sensors are used.
