Best practices
• When you have locations with multiple GBC make sure you use different
Network ID numbers on each GBC.
- Even buildings within 1000ft may receive crosstalk
• Many times the core will be cool only and perimeter will have cooling with
reheat requiring different thermostat types. Both should be checked.
• If a section of a building has been remodeled check thermostats to verify
type (direct acting or reverse acting).
• Locating the GBC in the center of the building close to power and a LAN.
ID assignments
• WPT
- Useful to number per floor or area (1xxx = 1
st
floor, 2xxx = 2
nd
floor…)
- If possible, number in a clock-wise manner through the floor or some other
logical pattern to help with maintenance
• RWAL
- Left most digit doesn’t matter, but right most digit should be numbered with
the lower number closest to the Hub
• Repeaters with an ID ending with 1 will be discovered first
• Do not repeat the right most digit in a repeater ID number for a given network
