Adding a control point PC placeholder device to the system description

  • The system description must contain a group.
  1. In the Network Configuration | Devices tree view, right-click a group and select Add Device.



    The Add Device dialog box opens.

  2. Configure settings for the device you are adding as follows:
    • Family – Select System Management.
    • Type – Select ControlPoint PC.
    • Model – Select Control Point PC.
    • Name - This is the device name, as displayed in the SiteConfig device tree view and device list view. You must configure this name to be the same as the host name on the actual control point PC.
    • Amount – Leave this setting at 1. Do not attempt to configure multiple control point PC simultaneously.
    • Control Network – Select the control network.
    • Starting Address – Select the IP address that is the address currently configured on the actual control point PC.
  3. Click OK to save settings and close.

Verify that IP settings for the placeholder device's control network interface are identical to those on the actual control point PC before using SiteConfig to discover the control point PC on the control network.
