Checking Serial To Ip Connections - MCi iControl User Manual

Checking Serial to IP Connections

Each Serial Hall Call bus originates from a Serial Hall Call Driver in the iCue cabinet. Each
Serial Hall Call Driver in turn communicates with iCue through the System Ethernet hub.
Figure 5.17 Serial to TCP/IP Connection
1. Verify an orange Ethernet cable from the Serial-to-Ethernet converter to the System
hub.
The Serial-to-Ethernet converters each have their own IP address. The IP address is preset at
the factory and should not need to be changed.
Caution
Always power down the serial hall call driver and wait at least one minute before installing,
replacing, disconnecting, or connecting an SC-HCME-EM or -ME serial to Ethernet board
to avoid potential damage to the board PLD from a high voltage spike.
