The upgrade time may extend up to 4 hours (or even longer) Current factory release is dated and limits the functionality that can be used out of the box: that will require a firmware upgrade of both gateway and lights which is a time consuming operation so it has to be planned for in the install process. Factory gateway release does match factory lamp/luminaire devices releases for out-of-the box installs. Factory releases can always be upgraded to the latest release It will allow you to group lights and control them via the app (min. functionality). Factory releases will be updated but be aware that one device with a previous release will require update to be executed. 6 Signify Classified - Internal System limitations out of the box / after upgrade Feature Limits Max lights / lamps Max sensors Max switches Type of sensor Light control manual on manual off Auto on auto off Manual on auto off Auto on auto off with DDR Manual on auto off with DDR Other features Force delete Reconnect to project after reset gateway

Signify Classified - Internal Getting started with a project 9 Footer (Insert > Header & Footer to edit) Signify Classified - Internal Get Interact Pro App on Google or Apple Search for Interact Pro 10 Signify Classified - Internal Logging in as a service provider (self registered account) Installer by invitation Method 1: By invitation You receive an email that invites you to register You register yourself using the interact pro portal Log in with your email address and password Invitation is for installer, owner, or user role Method 2: Self registration Click the request access button in You register yourself using the interact pro portal Login in with the credentials created Self registration makes you a service provider 11 Signify Classified - Internal Create your first project Logging in a (new) service provider into the app:
You can review app and credentials Create a new project You see that most functionality is blocked but if youre an installer at a job you can proceed:
Creating a new project adds installer role to your account It unlocks all app functionality You need to be an installer to proceed with commissioning So this action enables that for the first project 12 Signify Classified - Internal Add project information The name of the project is used to identify it Set the correct timezone of the project!
It ensures execution of schedules at the right time at all times. Also when the status of daylight savings time changes. You can change it later in the app or portal. After project creation, the commission of the system can start. 13 Signify Classified - Internal Installing the gateway Determine location of the gateway and install it first It requires a wired ethernet connection to work which may require cabling Check whether the 3 lights get solid blue Rationale: Gateway needs to be connected in order to commission. Start the app and assign by scanning QR code Execute this assignment prior to installation of the lights or power down the lights Reason: The gateway will open its network shortly to select a channel and that may result in finding a few lights. This can be a problem when youll find out later that the app is not connected via the cloud with the gateway Setting up the gateway at the start prevents delays when IT support is needed from the customer 14 Signify Classified - Internal Solving connection issues 3 blue lights burning but the app doesnt assign the gateway Validate whether the app is connected to the right cloud environment installers typically dont have demo setups The gateway itself sometimes connects to the wrong cloud environment. Try to factory reset and power cycle the gateway This sometimes happens and it is the only problem that requires a factory reset of the gateway Do not factory reset the gateway after youve found lights It doesnt solve any problem: power cycling may help in certain cases It may lead to a situation where you need to factory reset a number of lights 15 Signify Classified - Internal Discovery of lights 16 Footer (Insert > Header & Footer to edit) Signify Classified - Internal Light discovery When mains powered, besides turn to full on, each light will start announcing themselves by sending messages When any Zigbee network is opened, such a light will become part of that network Discover lights in Interact Pro will open up the network of its gateway to enable lights to join How are lights discovered?
Messages need to reach the gateway: first the lights that are in the neighborhood of the gateway will be linked As the network grows, lights further out will be linked as well Over time, powered lights will get harder to discover:
The frequency (repetition rate) in which messages are being sent decreases over time Lights will stop sending messages after some time (24 hours) Physical installation of lights takes time, power cycle the lights first before you want to commission (discover) them. 17 Signify Classified - Internal How to do this at a customer site?
Power down all lights that need to become part of the system Power up these lights Optional: Do a visual check that all lights to be discovered are powered Start the discovery process BE PATIENT: THIS PROCESS CAN AND OFTEN WILL TAKE TIME You can restart or stop/start the process but be patient first (up to 20m). The process will stop if it doesnt find a light for 5 minutes (app counts down) Recall:
The network is created step by step Messages are being transmitted randomly by every light (the repetition rate is high when just power cycled) Discovered lights will dim down to 30% level!
18 Signify Classified - Internal Did I discover the right amount of lights?
No need for counting - the app reports these numbers. If the number is about right:
Assign all lights to groups and/or zones You can turn on/off the lights in each group using the app to validate that they joined the network If you have too many: Lights likely pop up as Unknown or Lamp:
Leave them unassigned, if you dont have updated the gateway until youve executed a project update You can delete them right away but it may fail, you can retry after firmware upgrade: the system will get a feature that will remove the light irrespective what upon retry. If you have too few:
1. Power cycle the lights and start discovery again Increase time between turning the lights off and on 2. Still too few, factory reset the lights and power cycle them again 19 Signify Classified - Internal Groups and zones 20 Footer (Insert > Header & Footer to edit) Signify Classified - Internal Group and zone zone group All lights are assigned into groups or zones in those groups A group consists of zones (consisting of a number of lights) and/or standalone lights A zone is a set of lights that always have the same dim level and that can be set as a single entity When creating a scene Daylight controlled zones 21 Standalone lights Lights in zone Always at same dim level Works as a unit. Signify Classified - Internal Limitations in user accounts A service provider can have multiple projects. An installer can be assigned to multiple projects that belong to the same service provider. Every email address can be used for one role only except for when service provider creates a project. He will then also become installer for that project. An owner can only be assigned to one project. A user can only be assigned to one project. 23 Signify Classified - Internal FCC & IC Note:
