MLM RF OPERATION MANUAL
Installing the RF devices
The following describes the process of installing the RF devices to the MLM network.
Installing the MLM network
Ensure the MLM network is powered up and running, with the MLM Tool connected to the section (MCU) con-
taining the RF units to be linked. Verify that all the wired nodes are visible in the MLM project. Select the edit
function in the MLM Tool and zone the diffusers into the required control zones. Verify that the Access Points
are visible on the MLM Tool as indicated. The diffusers should be in idle mode as no master controllers are se-
lected at this stage.
The RF binding process
The RF binding process is a three stage process designed to seamlessly integrate the RF end devices into the
MLM network. The three steps are as follows:
1. Discover - the Access point is activated to discover which RF end devices are visible to that Access Point.
2. Link – the discovered RF end devices are linked (saved) to the activated Access point.
3. Group –the linked RF end devices are connected to host diffusers, i.e. allocated to control zones.
