Adding discovered SedonaJen6lpDevices

In summary, you use the Discover feature of the network’s default Sedona Jen6lp Device Manager view to add devices already detected when you enabled the SedonaJen6lpNetwork.

Adding discovered Jennic-based devices

Do this after adding and configuring the SedonaJen6lpNetwork (see Adding and configuring the SedonaJen6lpNetwork).

  1. Double-click the SedonaJen6lpNetwork for its default Device Manager view, and click the Discover button. A “Sedona Learn Devices” job quickly runs, and shows discovered devices in the top pane.

    (Or, optional) Use the New Folder feature to make one or more device folders, each with its own device manager view—a common NiagaraAX driver feature that allows you to “group” devices. You can then perform a Discover from the device manager view of each device folder.

  2. Click to select one or more discovered devices, then click the Add button. Figure 7 shows the Add dialog.

    Often properties can be left at defaults, including (initially) Name. After adding devices to the database you can rename devices with more meaningful text. See Renaming SedonaJen6lpDevices.

  3. Click OK to add devices to the database.

    Figure 10 shows all discovered devices added to the station database using default names. Typically now you rename all the SedonaJen6lpDevice components.
