1. Select one or more devices from the tree to be installed.
To select one device, click that device.
To select multiple devices, click one device and then either hold down
CTRL and click all other devices to be installed or hold down SHIFT
and select another device to install the entire range of devices.
2. The device page opens. Proceed to the next section,

with Smart Network Management
, to install the devices.
Installing Devices with Smart Network Management
After you select the devices to be installed, use the Smart Network Management
feature to install them. With this option, the SmartServer asynchronously sets
the following device properties to the states it determines to be desired:
Program ID
Commission status (commissioned or decommissioned)
Application state (online or offline)
Application image
Device template (external interface)
Configuration property default values
Enabling Smart Network Management
You can enable smart network management for a device by selecting the
checkbox at the top of the SNM column of the device page (setup tab), and then
clicking Submit. You can also enable smart network management for specific
device properties by selecting the checkbox in the SNM column for the specific
property, and then clicking Submit. Which checkboxes you should select depends
on whether you are installing devices pre-loaded with the current application
image files:
If you are installing pre-loaded devices, select the Smart Network
Management checkboxes for the following properties: Commission
Status, State, Template, Write Configuration Property Defaults, and
Reset. Verify that all other checkboxes are cleared to ensure that the
SmartServer does not update the application image currently on the
devices.
If you are installing devices that need to be loaded with an application
image file, select the checkbox at the top of the SNM column to enable
smart network management for all device properties. Note that the
application image to be downloaded to the devices must be in the
/LonWorks/Import folder on the SmartServer flash disk for the
SmartServer to install the devices successfully.
After smart network management is enabled for a device property, the
SmartServer attempts to perform the corresponding network management
command. The current statuses of the network management commands appear
in the Progress column.
