Creating a Sticker Book

The sticker book tracks fixture and lighting gateway placement in the facility, by serial number. The sticker book is a requirement for all installations.

How it Works

An extra serial number label is included with each fixture and lighting gateway. During hardware installation, the electrician affixes the labels to the sticker book. There are multiple methods for creating a sticker book, though Method A is the most common:

Method A: Build a traditional sticker book using CAD software

  • Create a printable "map" of the facility, with empty boxes (3" x 2") representing each fixture and lighting gateway location. As each piece of hardware is installed, affix its serial label to the appropriate box in the sticker book.
  • or

  • Open the facility floor plan CAD file. Add rectangles to the drawing representing the position of each fixture and lighting gateway. Later, print the file in large format using a plotter. As each device is installed, write in the serial numbers on the printout.

Method B: Create a digital sticker book using Commissioner:

  • Using Commissioner, create a Creating a Map File.
  • Select View > Show Serial Numbers, which displays the last four digits of each fixture and lighting gateway in the map.
  • Select File > Save Map Image... to save a printable PNG image file.
  • Using a large format printer, print the PNG file. Or, tile the image onto multiple pages.
