To configure a controller using the ICU
1. Power up the controllers in the cluster.
2. Start the ICU.
To use the ICU, connect a PC or laptop to the same subnet as the cluster.
The ICU window opens, as shown in Figure 5.7, and displays controllers
and their configuration information.
Description
The ICU prompts you for a specific IP address.
Master controllers support onboard Ethernet connection
to the C•CURE.
Member controllers support one network connection (10/
100 BaseT Ethernet).
For master controllers, this is the IP address of the
C•CURE system.
For member controllers, this is the IP address of the
master controller.
Master controllers can establish a primary connection to
the C•CURE host over network connections.
Master controllers can establish a secondary connection
to the host over network connections.
