Pairing VT8000 Series Room Controllers with ZigBee Sensors Installation Guide and Procedure Commercial and Hotel/Lodging HVAC Fan Coil Applications
ZigBee Pairing Procedure VT8000 Series Quick setup The quick set-up assumes all back-end configurations of the stand alone Room Controller acting as coordinator or the Multi-Purpose Manager (MPM) coordinator for the ZigBee network have already been done. It also assumes the user is familiar with the Permit Join function and the Wireless Ecosystem screen functions. PROCEDURE 1. Set Permit Join on your Room Controller (or networked MPM coordinator if used) to On. 2.
ZigBee Pairing Procedure 3 VT8000 Series Overview This procedure shows you how to pair an VT8000 Series Room Controller with one of the following ZigBee Sensors: • Ceiling Mounted Sensor • Door/Window Mounted Sensor • Motion Sensor The ZigBee Sensors can be paired with a stand-alone Room Controller, or with a Room Controller as part of a network. However, when pairing a ZigBee Sensor with a Room Controller on a network, the Room Controller must first be bound to a StruxureWare Lite Multi-Purpose Manager.

ZigBee Pairing Procedure 11 VT8000 Series 1. In the Object field of the Explorer tab, click ZigBee Room Controller Configuration. 2. Click on the checkboxes for any device data points that you want to monitor in Building Expert. A maximum of 50 data points can be selected. Use the Search for text box to locate specific data points. 3. Click on Unassign all to clear all selected data points and restart. 4.
ZigBee Pairing Procedure VT8000 Series Set Permit Join and Pair ZigBee Sensor(s) The following procedure assumes the Room Controller is either stand-alone or has already been bound to a MPM acting as a coordinator. See Appendix A for information on how to pair a ZigBee sensor with a Room Controller bound to a MPM in a network including multiple MPMs.
ZigBee Pairing Procedure 13 VT8000 Series PAIR ZIGBEE SENSOR(S) WITH ROOM CONTROLLER For a full description of how to install a ZigBee sensor, refer to the appropriate Installation Guide for the ZigBee sensor you are trying to pair with your Room Controller. Navigate to the Wireless Ecosystem screen on your Room Controller. 1. Go to the first Zone screen that is not already paired with a ZigBee sensor.
ZigBee Pairing Procedure VT8000 Series ADDITIONAL CONFIGURATION - WINDOW AND DOOR SENSORS For window and door contact sensors, additional configuration is necessary for the Room Controller sequences to function appropriately. 1. Go to the first page of the Configuration settings in the Room Controller interface. 2. If a Zigbee wireless window contact sensor has been paired with the Room Controller, select UI16 and make sure the function is set to Window. 3.
ZigBee Pairing Procedure 15 VT8000 Series DISABLING PERMIT JOIN 1. Once your ZigBee sensor has joined the network, verify that the last four digits of the IEEE address on the sensor match what shows on the Room Controller screen. More than one ZigBee sensor may have joined, so confirm that the correct type has joined for each zone that you use to pair a ZigBee sensor with the Room Controller.
ZigBee Pairing Procedure VT8000 Series 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.
ZigBee Pairing Procedure 17 VT8000 Series To use the ZigBee wireless sensors in a network with multiple MPMs, the general network architecture must resemble the diagram shown below. If the general design of your network installation with MPMs, Room Controllers and ZigBee sensors does not match that shown in the diagram below, please contact Support for more information. Note: Make sure that each MPM controlling a ZigBee network has a different PAN ID.
