  • Page 8: Device Configuration

    This section contains unit-related information used to uniquely identify the unit when it is being serviced in the field. The Site Time is used by the local network and the QD2040c until the Ubiquity central server performs a time synchronization with the site.
  • Page 9 The default setting is 1 minute. You must select whether or not to allow caching the host name via DNS. Typically, this is left unchecked. You must select how often the QD2040c connects to the central server.
  • Page 10 Here you will configure each of the COM ports for this site. Typically, you will leave Auto Detection of Controls on All Ports enabled so the QD2040c will find and add the controller as they are included on one of the networks (wired or wireless).
  • Page 11 DEVICE CONFIGURATION COMMUNICATION INFORMATION This section contains settings which control how the QD2040c connects out through the LAN or WAN to the Internet. All of these settings are determined by your local network administrator or IT department. The correct settings, network permissions, and port openings (WAN Outbound, ports 80, 443, 8443) need to be verified with them prior to installation and connecting to the local network.
  • Page 12 Once you are finished entering information in this section, click the Update Commissioning Info button. SECURITY INFORMATION This section contains settings which control the security of the device within the QD2040c and whether or not it can be accessed through the web interface.

    2) Connected -- means the unit is able to communicate to the Ubiquity central server BUT is not being matched up with a specific Site, typically this indicates that the site is not initialized on the central server side yet, please contact TCS Basys Controls to assign or initialize the QD2040c to a site 3) Established -- means the unit is communicating with the Ubiquity central server AND is ready to go.
  • Page 14 SYSTEM COMMANDS In this section you are able to set a couple of system flags for the QD2040c itself. “Reboot Unit” sets a flag which will shut off and restart the QD2040c within a 5 minute Cycle. “Check for Update” contacts the Ubiquity Central Server for any updates relevant to its particular model number and software version.
  • Page 15 DEVICE CONFIGURATION Device Configuration CLI UI Once you have made connection and have logged in you are able to configure the operation of the unit by selecting the proper parameters for your application. All Ubiquity Cloud Application software and functionality is accessed by logging into the Central Server (www.ubiquitysystems.net) not by using this configuration page.
