Network ID (dec)

Join Device to Network
—enter the Network ID (up to 5‐digits) and the Join Key (4 sets of 8 hexadecimal digits). The Join

devices connected to a gateway.
Note
The Network ID is shipped with a default value of 1229 and the Join Key with a default value of all zeros. These must be changed
prior to use.
When the gateway is configured in an advanced security mode each device is required to have an individual join key.
