Create a network
1 From the Installation setup page, new experts are encouraged to click View instructions. The resulting pages guide experts through a series of network instructions. Once networks are created, these instructions are accessed by clicking Setup instructions on the Installation setup page.
2 From the Installation setup page, click Create network.
3 Type a name for your network, select an appropriate Zigbee channel, then click Create network.
| === Pay attention to the note under the Zigbee channel selection drop down menu and take care to avoid using the same Zigbee channel for physically adjacent networks in your project. This will avoid scenarios where too many nearby networks are using the same Zigbee channel, which can cause wireless interference in certain cases. === |
4 Networks can be renamed or deleted at a later stage, if needed, by clicking the three-dot-ellipsis on the right side of each network.
| === Networks can only be deleted from the web portal if there are no devices in the network. If there are devices in the network, they must first be deleted before the network itself can be deleted. === |
