Important Notes
Codes:
Install in accordance with all local and national electrical codes.
Cleaning:
To clean, wipe with a clean damp cloth. DO NOT use any chemical cleaning
solutions.
WARNING:
Using a DC adapter not rated at the proper specifications could damage the
NXB-CCG and possibly overheat the DC adapter. Use only the Lutron DC adapter listed
above.
RF Device Placement:
All dimmers, switches, keypads and shades / draperies must be
located within 30 ft (9 m) of the NXB-CCG (FIG. 2).
Installation
1.
Find a suitable location for the NXB-CCG.
NOTE: Proper orientation of the antenna helps ensure maximum range and the best
performance. The NXB-CCG should be positioned centrally to the devices being controlled,
and as high and clear of obstructions as possible. For best performance, the antenna should
be positioned vertically (tip up or down, not sideways). Try to keep the antenna at least 2 feet
from metallic objects.
2.
Mount vertically or horizontally (FIG. 3), using two #6 (M3) screws. When mounting,
allow 7 in (177.8 mm) clearance for the antenna and ensure convenient access to the
power plug. In order to achieve proper RF performance, do not mount unit in a metal
enclosure.
3.
Attach the DC adapter cord to the power jack on the NXB-CCG and insert the DC
adapter plug into a receptacle.
4.
Use CAT5 Ethernet cable to connect the NXB-CCG to the chosen network’s Master.
Please refer to the Ethernet Pin Numbering diagram (FIG. 5) for the correct
connection.
5.
Clip the included CAT5 Suppression Ferrite around the Ethernet cable, 2 to 3 inches
(51-76 mm) from the NXB-CCG’s Ethernet port (FIG. 4).
Returning an NXB-CCG to Factory Default Settings
Note:
Returning an NXB-CCG to factory default settings will erase all programming from it
and will require the device to be reprogrammed into the system. Devices connected to the
NXB-CCG will need to be reset separately to their factory defaults before they can be
reconnected.
1.
Press and hold the
Reset
button (FIG. 1) on the device for 20 seconds.
2.
The Power/Status LED will start flashing slowly for approximately10 seconds, after
which it will start rapidly flashing for approximately 20 seconds and then remain on.
3.
The device has been returned to its factory default settings.
Ethernet Pin Numbering
The numbering for pins in the Ethernet port is as follows:
Web Interface Pages
The NXB-CCG feature a built-in zero-configuration networking client that allows you to
determine the unit’s IP address via NetLinx Studio v3.0 (or higher), or a similar zero-
configuration client or browser. Entering the device’s IP address in an enabled browser
(Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Apple Safari for PCs and Firefox and Safari
for Macintoshes) allows the device to be accessed in that browser. Once contact is
established, and a username and password entered, the Web interface pages may be
reached and updated.
Zero-configuration (or Zero-Config) technology provides a general method to discover
services on a local area network. In essence, it allows you to set up a network without any
configuration.
