Connect to an infiNET EX Network
The INET-IOEX-IRCOM must be acquired by an infiNET EX wireless
gateway or by a control system with a built-in infiNET EX gateway
(both not included) before it may be used with a 3-Series control
system.
Use the procedures below to join or leave an infiNET EX network and
to verify communications between the device and the control system.
NOTE: The INET-IOEX-IRCOM may be acquired only by one network.
Join the infiNET EX Network
1. Enter Acquire mode using one of the following methods:
• Press the ACQUIRE button on the infiNET EX gateway.
• Enter Acquire mode from Crestron Toolbox™ software. For
more information, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help file.
NOTE: In an environment where there are multiple gateways
installed, place only one gateway in Acquire mode at a time.
2. Press the SETUP button three times, and then press and hold
the SETUP button (press-press-press-press+hold) until the
LED on the device flashes once. This process may take up to ten
seconds to complete.
NOTE: If the INET-IOEX-IRCOM was previously acquired to
another gateway, instead press the SETUP button three
times, and then press and hold the button (press-press-press-
press+hold) for over ten seconds.
3. Release the SETUP button to start the acquire process. The LED
flashes slowly to show that the device is actively scanning the
infiNET EX network.
4. Confirm the status of the acquire process:
• If the INET-IOEX-IRCOM is acquired by the infiNET EX
network, the LED lights for five seconds.
• If the INET-IOEX-IRCOM is not acquired by the infiNET EX
network, The LED flashes rapidly for several seconds. Press
the SETUP button to cancel the acquire process. Ensure the
gateway is in Acquire mode and that the INET-IOEX-IRCOM
is in range before attempting the acquire process again.
5. After the process is complete, remove the gateway from Acquire
mode as described by its documentation.

Leave the infiNET EX Network
1. Verify that the INET-IOEX-IRCOM is not within range of a
gateway that is in Acquire mode.
2. Press the SETUP button three times, and then press and hold
the SETUP button (press-press-press-press+hold) until the
LED on the device flashes once. This process may take up to ten
seconds to complete.
3. Release the SETUP button. The LED flashes quickly to indicate
that the INET-IOEX-IRCOM has left the infiNET EX wireless
network.
4. Press the SETUP button to acknowledge that the device has left
the network and to stop the flashing LED.
Verify the Communications Status
To check the communications status of the INET-IOEX-IRCOM, press
the SETUP button three times, and then press and hold the button
(press-press-press-press+hold) for up to two seconds.
The LED blinks to indicate the communications status as described in
the table below.
