12. Left Pane – ISY

12.2 Controller Icon

The fourth icon on the left pane is the main group of all the devices on your ISY. In this
implementation, as shown in Figure 23, it is called My Lighting. It may be called ISY
depending on the software version you have. You may change this name. Its symbol is a
computer to the left of the name (My Lighting or ISY.)
Figure 23– Controller Icon
This group will always contain all the devices that are linked to the controller. You can
not delete this group. By selecting the controller and doing a right click you will be
presented with a menu with three options: Query, Rename and Start Linking.

12.2 Query

When you select the Query option on the menu associated with the Controller's group the
ISY will start querying the network and searching the status of each device which is
linked to the controller. It will update their status and the updated information will be
presented in the table in the view pane.

12.3 Rename

The Rename menu option allows you to rename the ISY's controller name.

12.4 Start Linking

For all devices, with the exception of ControLinc, when new devices need to be added to
the ISY you must select this option and then click the linking button on the new device
(light, switch etc.) for as many devices as you desire. This performs the same action as
the Start Linking button on the tool bar. The Start Linking button will change and will
show an X sign. The new device/s should automatically show up on the ISY application.
This may take a few seconds. Please click the Cancel button on the Linking Dialog after
all your new devices have been linked to the controller and show up on the GUI. You can
then rename each device and change its various attributes. Please follow each device as to
the location of its linking button. The device should blink indicating it is in linking mode.
Please make sure you first select the Start Linking option from the ISY GUI and then
click the linking button on the device itself. Other wise the device will not be linked to
the controller.
For ControlLinc, click on the Link a ControLinc menu option and follow instructions on
the screen.
