4.
Modify the original LonSpec project so that it does not
contain unsupported devices. The following are
frequently used:

b. XL15B
c. Command Display 1 and 2
d. T7300
e. RapidLink/SLTA/PCLTA used by LonSpec, LonSta-
tion and XL15A.
f. RF Gateway
g. CX-VFD
It is highly recommended not to have these devices
physically connected to the Lon Network as it could
result in partial upload of binding information into WebVi-
sion, or worse interfere with WebVision functionality.
5.
Disconnect WebVision from the network and re-
commission all the devices using LonSpec.
NOTE: When re-commissioning, please use full commission
command, not quick commission.
6.
After re-commissioning, disconnect LonSpec from the
network.

existing config file. There should not be any devices present in
WebVision

After the discovery is complete, all the discovered
devices are listed on the left side of the table. Review
the subnet/node ids of discovered devices to ensure
that there are no conflicts. WebVision will detect the
clash and on confirmation from the user, it would
change the subnet/node id of the device.

going in and out of that device. It is suggested that
the user find the clash manually and rectify them
through LonSpec.

click the SelectAll box) and then click
Add

device in the discovered list to do further operation
on them. Although mouse scrolling across the
discovered devices records appear as selection,
they are actually not selected
