Finding a
suitable location

Lightcloud uses a wireless mesh network
to connect devices such as the Touch
to the Gateway. Unlike a WiFi router,
each Lightcloud device may connect
another device to the network. If there
is a clear line of sight between two
Lightcloud devices, they can be placed
up to 1000 feet apart. If the two devices
are separated by ordinary drywall
construction, try to keep them within
100 feet of each other. Brick, concrete
and steel construction may require
additional AC-powered Lightcloud
devices to go around the obstruction.
See the Deployment section of your
Gateway for more information.

When installing devices, it’s important to keep track of
their Device IDs, installation locations, panel/circuit #s,
dimming function, and any additional notes. To organize
this information, use the Lightcloud Installer Application
(A) or Device Table (B).

Lightcloud Installer Application

Install the LC Installer Application: LC Installer is available
for iOS or Andriod
Scan & Install Lightcloud Devices: Scan each device and assign to
a room. It’s recommended that each device is scanned just before
or just after being wired so no devices are missed. The more notes
that are given, the easier it is to commission the system.

Device Table

For setup and maintenance, we provide two Lightcloud Device
Tables with the Gateway: one that you can attach to your panel
and one to hand off to a building manager. Attach the Device
Identification stickers included with each device to a row,
then write in additional information, such as Zone name, Panel/
Circuit Number, and whether or not a zone uses dimming.
