Step 3: Create Areas Using the Site Setup Wizard

Next, create the networked and standalone areas that will be needed for the site. There can be up to 28 areas created in one site.

• A networked area is a collection of devices that form an independent Bluetooth mesh communication network. When defining areas, keep

in mind that devices in one area cannot communicate to devices in another area. Plan areas accordingly based on device proximity and

the need to share information. For example, if a wallstation needs to control multiple fixtures, the fixtures and wallstation need to be in the

same area. For most reliable operation, no more than 50 (40 best practice) provisioned devices should be assigned to any networked area.

• Standalone areas can be created for any devices that need to operate autonomously without interaction with other controls. Having the

device provisioned in a standalone area allows the device to continue to operate independently but allows for adjustment of the device

settings/behavior. There is no limit to the number of devices that can be assigned/provisioned in a standalone area.

To create an area:

1: In the step 3 setup wizard screen, enter a name for the area (area names must be unique within the same site) and then use the selections

and dropdown to select the desired template. Tap 'Save' to save the area to the list.

2: Tap '+ Add Area' to add the next area, naming the area and selecting the appropriate template.

3: Repeat this process until all necessary areas are created for the site and then tap 'Next'.
