Method 2: To address when you do not know the serial numbers
You will need physical access to each device so that you can press the DSC button on the bottom right of the TV-
UC561. This allows you to identify the device on the controller setup
Local Network
page.

Connect to the Service Port of one i-
Vu® XT or TruVu™ IP device on the network. Fo
r details, see

On the controller you want to address, press the DSC button on the bottom right. When pressed, a row
appears in the

table on the
Local Network
tab. The row has a blue dot to indicate which

(page 45).
NOTE
To physically identify a device that is displayed on the
Local Devices
table, you can click the
Blink
button,
which causes that device's

The following are two possible methods you could use to identify and assign a network of controllers' addresses
after following steps 1 - 4 above.
•
Two technicians can work together if they are communicating throughout the process. The first technician
physically travels around the building to each controller, tells his co-worker exactly where he is, and then
presses the DSC button. The second technician, who is sitting at a computer connected to the controller,
watches for the blue dot to show up on the
Local Devices
table on the
Local Network
tab, where he can enter
the appropriate addressing and identifying information.
•
One technician alone can address the controllers on a mobile device showing the Local Network page by
plugging the Carrier wireless service adapter into a controller's Service Port. Then, with the computer, move to
each controller within 100 ft. of the adapter. Pressing the DSC button on the controller displays a blue dot in
the table where the addressing information can be entered.
