Setting the Controller's MAC Address Through a Connected
Allure EC-Smart-Vue Sensor
To commission a controller that has a MAC Address DIP switch located on the faceplate or
under the cover (in the case of an ECB-103 or ECB-VAV Series controller - when equipped)
with an Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensor, first set all the MAC address DIP switches to 0 (this is
the factory default). Connect an Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensor to the controller to then set the
MAC address. See
Commissioning Controllers
on page 99 for this procedure. If the MAC
Address is set with an Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensor, the change is made immediately without
any need to power cycle the controller.
