Installing the Nodes
1. Record the MacID of the node and DCM (if utilizing dimming fixtures) on the Installation Worksheet along with
the pole/fixture identifier and other required fixture attributes (i.e., lamp type, wattage, etc.).
2. Install the node on the photocell receptacle by fully seating the node prongs into the receptacle and giving
it a slight clockwise twist to lock it into place. If your fixtures do not have these receptacles, a retro-fit kit can be
ordered from Acuity Brands.
3. Observe the two LED indicators inside the photocell window on the node and verify the following sequence:
a. Both lights will light for about 4 seconds.
b. Both lights will turn off for about 1 second.
c. The green LED will blink slowly indicating it’s looking for a Gateway.
4. Cover the photocell window to confirm the fixture illuminates.
a. By default, nodes will operate as a photocontrol, whether they’re communicating with the Gateway and
ROAMview Server or not. There is no disruption to the controls system or fixture operation if nodes are
installed prior to the ROAMview Server and Gateway.
5. Group controls (strings of fixtures controlled by an external timer, photocontrol, etc.) affect the reporting,
commands and network formation of ROAMview. Therefore, ROAM recommends all group controls be
removed when using the system.
