1.0 Introduction
The site determines which hardware type will be used. Once a site has been added you will then be able to add a hub (or multiple hubs) to the site. Each hub supports up to 32 doors.
- A site may represent a business location, a floor of a building or any other grouping of hardware. The requirements for a site are as follows:
- Each site will need a minimum of one physical hub.
- All controllers on a site must be of the same hardware family, such as: Keri NXT or Keri NXT-MSC (mercury-powered).
- You will need to use multiple hubs if you wish to use different hardware/controller types (for example: Standard NXT AND NXT-Mercury-Powered (MSC) controllers.
- A site must have a world timezone assigned (all controllers on the site will use this world timezone).
