How Do I Find New Hardware?
When a new light, gateway, keypad, or power gateway has been installed, you can identify the new hardware via the discover diagnostic feature.

Discover a New Gateway
- Select Config > Networks from the menu.
- Click Discover Gateway and then click OK.
- LightRules lists the serial numbers of all found gateways. Compare the quantity of serial numbers and the serial number strings to the information displayed on the All Networks screen:
- (A) If the quantity of serial numbers is the same, and the strings are the same, then no new gateways have been discovered. Verify proper hardware installation.
- (B) If the quantity of serial numbers is the same, but the strings are different, then a gateway has been replaced with a new device.
- (C) If the quantity of serial numbers is greater, then a gateway has been added.
- For (B) and (C), the map file needs to be updated. Use Commissioner Software to update the map file.
Discover a New Keypad
- Select Config > Keypads from the menu.
- Click Discover Keypads and then click OK.
