Overview
A wireless light module is a device with a light stack that can be placed any where in the plant. This module is independent of all other devices, but any input device can turn the stack light on, off or blink it. The instructions below explain how to setup the wireless light in the system. Once the device is setup in the system you can then setup actions/commands in other input devices to work the lights.


Requirements
See Requirements Here
1. The VT3000 Core Software installed and running on your system.
2. A Coordinator must be setup, powered and communicating with the VT3000 Core Software.
3. A Wireless Lights Module powered and communicating with the VT3000 Software.
4. At least one Call Station, BSC, TIM, PSM, PC Call Station, PC BSC or PC Input Modules Configuration setup in the VT3000 Software.
