The LCN node address must meet the customer requirements. If the LCN address is not known, the
node address must be set to zero. Setting the address to zero allows the node to connect to the LCN
without the risk of an address conflict with some other node. This is consistent with the current LCN
standard procedure.
The server platform uses a digital system clock. When the server platform is added to an existing system
that contains node running analog clocks, that system must have at least two KxLCN boards for
analog/digital conversion.
ATTENTION
The LCNP4E (model number TP-LCNP04-100) is required.

LCN cables
The two LCN cables and with T-connectors (and terminators, if applicable) are routed vertically inside
the left rear corner of the cabinet (when viewed from the rear door) near the vertical cable duct where
the connection is made to the LCN MAU. The cable between the LCNP4e/LCNp4e2 board and the LCN
MAU is 2 meters in length.
4.2.4
LCN connections
The LCN Cable A and Cable B connections are made through a single cable from the LCNP4e /
LCNP4e2 board to the LCN Media Access Unit (MAU) contained in a metal housing. The following
illustrates a LCN MAU to LCN cabling.
4.2.5
MAU connection
Connect the MAU to both Cable A and Cable B coax T-connector as illustrated in the following Figure.
