  • Page 2 Lighting System Configuration Overview A NorthStar lighting solution consists of a NorthStar Site Controller and some number of lights equipped with Leviton light controllers, and potentially sensors and/or switches. The NorthStar Site Controller serves as the hub of control and communications for managing the lights that make up the lighting solution.
  • Page 3 LEDs will turn off and the site controller will be ready to use. Software Configuration and Logging In The NorthStar Site Controller comes preconfigured with the NorthStar software so there is no user installation of software required.
  • Page 4 The SSID that is broadcast from the site controller should be visible from the network connections panel of your computer or tablet. It will appear in your network connections list as SimplySNAP_XXXXXX where XXXXXX is the specific address of the site controller. This address is unique to each site controller and is the last 6 alphanumeric characters of the Ethernet MAC address.
  • Page 5 The Dashboard The dashboard provides an overview of the components that make up your NorthStar system. NOTE: For more information on the Dashboard and menu choices, please see the NorthStar User Guide. Discovering Unconfigured Devices You'll next want to add a few devices to the system to get a feel for how it works. Again, these instructions are for getting a quick idea of how easy the system is to configure and use, and not intended to be used for a full installation.
  • Page 6 To perform a census of unconfigured devices: 1. Click the Devices & Zones menu choice in the left menu panel, then click the Census Icon. 2. Click the Start Census button at the top of the screen. NorthStar will begin to search for unconfigured devices in your network.
  • Page 7 Next Steps You have now completed the NorthStar lighting solution introduction. For more detailed information, including administration and configuration of zones, sensors, and behaviors, consult the NorthStar user manual.
