Commission a Lighting Device: Serial Number Entry

Please review the Methods of Commissioning Lighting Devices before proceeding with the steps below.

The guide below details how to add fixtures using the serial number entry method. This method is recommended for installations under 50 lighting devices or for troubleshooting. It is not recommended for new large facilities or additions.

This is a fast method of adding a small number of lighting devices and is especially useful when luminaires are not placed on a clear grid-like structure in the facility. It involves following a wizard in Commissioner and adding one fixture at a time, using its serial number from a sticker map, then sync'ing it later on.

1. Open Commissioner
   
2. Click add Fixtures (if necessary, add a Zone first)
   
3. In the dialog, select the option "entering their serial numbers" then click Next
   
   
   
   
4. Enter data about the device
   
1. Current network (leave as default unless otherwise known)
   
2. Name - enter a useful name for the device, or leave as-is and use the bulk re-name tool later on
   
3. Serial Number - enter the device's serial number (Tip: to save time and minimize errors, use a barcode scanner)
   
4. Zone - select the Zone that the device should be added to
5. Click Program Later (sync will be completed later, often in bulk)
