This document provides step-by-step details on the process needed to commission 

one or more LMBR-650s and discover all wireless devices in a DLM network.
This document covers only the steps needed for commissioning and wireless 

discovery. For further details on LMCS programming, including creating wireless 

scenes and schedules, see the LMCS-100 Operation Manual, available at: 

https://www.legrand.us/wattstopper/digital-lighting-management/configuration-

controls/dlm-computer-interface-tools-and-software.aspx

.

For details on using DLM Dashboard software with the LMBR-650, see the DLM 

Dashboard User Guide.

CONNECTING LMCS-100 TO A NETWORK AND CREATING A SITE

Connecting to a wireless network requires creating a site, so that the network is secure and accessible only to those with proper 

permissions.
The following is a basic summary of these steps:

•  Open LMCS-100
•  Log into your user account or request an account if you do not have one.
•  Create a site, or open a previously created site.
•  Select the connection 

Type

 and 

Adapter

 use to connect to the network. (This can be done before or after logging in and creating a site.)

•  Discover the LMBR-650s used in this site. This will lock the LMBRs so that they can only be accessed by your account or other 

authorized accounts.

•  Discover all wireless DLM devices within range of the LMBR. Only devices wit the same Network and Channel settings as the 

LMBR will be found. New devices all ship with default values, so in a new site all devices should be found. 

•  Select the devices that you want to be part of the network with the LMBR. After selection they will migrate to a new Network with the 

LMBR. In a scenario with multiple LMBRs, each LMBR will have its own Network and Channel settings, so each group of devices 

you select will migrate to the Network of that LMBR.

•  For each room pair the wireless devices together so that they only communicate with each other and not with devices in other rooms.

Once these steps are complete, you can adjust device parameter values for rooms that were already creating using an off-line project, 

or modify current parameters in real time and send them to the devices.
