ESCO-IPN
Portable BACnet Multi-Network Router
Installation Guide
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The information contained in this document provides details of installation,
and operation for installers and users of the ESCO-IPN multi-network
router.
ESCO-IPN is a multi-network router, sharing messages among BACnet/IP,
BACnet Ethernet and MS/TP networks. The router is configurable via its internal
webpage. The unit attaches to a USB port of your computer and has one
isolated MS/TP port and one 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Auto-MDIX port.
The MS/TP port offers a 3-pin terminal block with a removable plug for the
EIA-485 connection. Through this port, up to 254 devices can be addressed — as
many as 31 full-load devices on the attached segment. All MS/TP baud rates (as
stated in the BACnet standard) are supported.
The Ethernet port offers a shielded RJ-45 connector. Through auto-negotiation
and Auto-MDIX, it automatically matches its duplex setting, data rate and signal
polarity to whatever is needed by the attached equipment. Thus, only a straight-
through CAT5 cable is needed for hook-up.
The USB port is strictly used to power the ESCO-IPN. No communications is
supported via the USB port.
The ESCO-IPN features a user-accessible switch to reset the IP address, subnet
mask and gateway address to the factory defaults.
Three LEDs are present: A power LED glows green when proper power is
provided. The Ethernet LED glows green for 100 Mbps operation and yellow for
10 Mbps and flashes to indicate activity. A green LED flashes when MS/TP traffic
is received.

It takes 5 VDC from a host computer, while typically drawing 300 mA of current. It can operate from a USB hub, if desired, and no driver installation is needed.

    The Status Screen depicted in Figure 10 reports the traffic of the various 5 year warranty on ECOSMART models for peace of mind. The warranty starts protocols handled by the ESCO-IPN. It shows the number of messages received from the day of delivery and includes parts and labour for the first year.
