network before rejoining the network with the new passphrase.
Result
When configured properly, all the devices on the same ZFR1830 PAN network appear in the device
list view of the WRG1830 and are available to configure.
Accessing Wireless Controllers using the WRG1830
When the WRG1830 connects to a ZFR1830 wireless network by the ZFR1831 wireless router, you
can access wireless controllers and view the wireless status of all the devices on the PAN.
To interact with a device on the network to see its setpoints, alarms, and other parameters, use
a web-enabled device that is connected to the WRG1830 Wi-Fi or Ethernet network to select the
device.
