See ZFR USB Dongle Troubleshooting to diagnose why the ZFR dongle could
not join the wireless mesh.
Setting ZFR Wireless USB Dongle Parameters in ZCT
Use the main screen of ZCT to set wireless connection parameters..
1. Insert the ZFR USB dongle in an available USB port.
2. Because the dongle does not connect to the mesh at the ZFR1810 Coordinator,
you should locate the laptop near a router or repeater with an available address.
Depending on the mesh, you may need to relocate the laptop to another
location to connect to the mesh.
3. Click Start Scan. The Scan Configuration dialog box appears.
Note: Refer to the ZCT section of the Controller Tool Help (LIT-12011147) for
further information about the options available in the Scan Configuration
dialog box.
4. Enter the PAN ID of the wireless mesh you want to join.
5. Select the ZFR system mesh channel number if it is known. Otherwise, leave
this parameter set to Auto.
Entering a known channel number can decrease the amount of time it takes to
connect to the wireless mesh.
