Changing Wi-Fi Settings
A NorthStar site controller is assigned an SSID at the factory, but this is confusing in
installations that have multiple site controllers. For safety and ease of use, Leviton
recommends that you change the SSID and
Key for your site controller as soon as is reasonable.
If you don't plan to use Wi-Fi access within your NorthStar system, you can also
disable Wi-Fi access.
To edit or disable Wi-Fi settings:
1. Access the Wi-Fi Settings tab by clicking Config - Wi-Fi Settings.
2. Enable or disable Wi-Fi using the
Wi-Fi
toggle.
3. Enter your desired SSID and Key in the fields provided.
4.
Click
Save Changes
to save your new Wi-Fi settings, or Cancel to exit without
saving.

Factory Defaulting Network Settings
You can reset your network settings to the factory defaults at any time by using the
Network Settings to Default button.
To reset the network settings to their factory defaults:
1. Log-in to the NorthStar user interface and click
Config - Network Settings.
2.
Click
the
Network Settings to Default
button.
3.
Click
Save Changes
to complete the change, or
Cancel
to exit without saving.

Configuring Zones and Scenes
A Zone is a grouping of lights and sensors that provides an easy way to control
multiple fixtures at once. If you plan to use sensors to control light behavior, the
sensors will issue commands to specified zones. For example, you may want to
group all security lights into a separate zone from the parking lot lights. These
groupings allow behaviors to be applied across multiple lights at once.
A scene is a grouping of zones, with specified behaviors for each of those zones. This
allows you to issue commands to a number of lights where each light is at a different
brightness or activation method. For scenes to be useful, you must first group lights
into zones, and the scene will issue instructions via those zones.
When you're first configuring your lighting solution, you'll need to decide how you
want lights to behave over the course of a day, and then create Zones to group those
lights accordingly. It's helpful to create the Zones that you'll use before you configure
the lights and sensors that will be in the zone, so you can easily add the lights and
sensors as they're configured.
A light can be a member of multiple zones, but sensors can only be in a single zone.
