DLP support includes testing at 6 and 12 month intervals following completion of commissioning and repairs which may be required following testing. The Four Steps to a Nexus RF System Nexus RF System Design Step 1 - Review the site plans and determine the... - Page 4 their positioning are as follows: • The load on a Router should be designed at a maximum of 90 fittings. • To minimise hop counts to the fittings being served, the controller should be located as central to these fittings as possible. Step 3 - Designing the IP Backbone The Area Controllers and Area Controller Routers need to be interconnected by an IP network. Depending on the site it may be possible to utilise an existing IP infrastructure, on others there will be a need to design and install a dedicated network. If an existing IP infrastructure is to be utilised then you will need to consult the network manager with regards to access points and IP addresses for the network. Allowances should be provided on the network for connection of a PC if required and a remote access 3G device.

To formalise the process of allocating SPU ID’s to fittings it is essential that the site plans are marked up to reflect the allocated SPU ID’s. Also during the installation phase it is necessary to capture specific information about each of the fittings including SPU ID, MAC address, location details and database/circuit details. This information is required in electronic format for system commissioning; a commissioning spreadsheet template file will be provided to you by the assigned Nexus RF specialist, all relevant data must be entered into this spreadsheet.

Nexus RF System Installation Step 1 - Fitting Installation During the fitting installation process the following steps need to be performed: • Install each fitting type according to the supplied installation brochure. • Label each fitting with a SPU ID label. Figure 2 • Collect the MAC address of each fitting. Every luminaire is fitted with a MAC address label with a peel off section, refer to figure 2. The peel off section includes the MAC address number plus this number represented as a barcode. This MAC address is a unique hardware identifier and is of absolute importance during the commissioning phase. It is intended that prior to fitting installation hard copies of the commissioning spreadsheet compiled in step 4 of the design phase be printed. The peel off section of the MAC address label can then be attached to this hard copy of the commissioning spreadsheet next to the correct SPU ID. -

reports to you as proof of system operation. If any fitting issues arise during this phase the Nexus RF specialist will assist in their resolution. Defects Liability Period On completion of the commissioning or testing phase the DLP phase commences. During the 1 year DLP Thomas & Betts monitor the site operation periodically to ensure reliable system operation. At 6 and 12 month intervals system testing is performed and any system issues identified will be addressed by Thomas & Betts. Test result reports will be supplied to you for these 6 and 12 monthly tests. Ongoing system testing and support services are available in the form of service agreements; details are available from your Thomas & Betts representative. - Page 8 Blank Page © Thomas & Betts All technical claims in this document are based upon technical information available at the time Rev: 1.0 (Australasia) Pty.
