In a closed loop arrangement you may choose whether or not to include a host PC as a permanent
system component; however, it is not necessary for router operation to have a host PC continuously
connected to the SSC3 once the controller configuration file has been created and downloaded.
In order for the host PC to communicate with the router components, its IP address and other network
parameters must be set to a value that allows it to "find" the router components with the following
factory configured IP address values:
Primary System Controller – 192.168.1.203 (Video Frame)
-
Local Control Panel – 192.168.1.205
-
Once the router system and host PC are communicating, you may use Cattrax to set the network
parameters, such as IP address, subnet mask and gateway, of the router components to any value best
suited to your installation.
Follow Figure 3-3 and connect router components as follows:
•
Install a Cat5 Ethernet cable between the Local Control Panel Ethernet Port, A, on rear panel of
video routing frame and any open port on Ethernet Switch, C.
•
Install a second Cat5 cable between the Primary System Controller Ethernet Port, B, on video
frame and any open port on Ethernet Switch, C.
•
Install a Cat5 cable between the open Ethernet Port on host PC, D, and any open port on
Ethernet Switch, C.
