H A P T E R NSTALLATION HAPTER 3.1. Installing the LD2000 The LD2000 is a wall mounted device. There are four mounting holes on the sides of the unit spaced 7.5 inches (.19m) apart. Use drywall anchors if securing the unit to drywall. 3.2.
Installation Route the sensing cable according to a cable layout diagram, if provided. Lay the cable according to the 5, “Secure the EOL terminator on the unoccupied end of the SC cable.” on page 20. Figure 3.1 SeaHawk Leak Detection Cable (Sensing Cable) Secure the EOL terminator on the unoccupied end of the SC cable.
Installation Figure 3.2 Cable Installation Methods 3.2.2 Applying Power to the LD2000 Once the SeaHawk leak detection cable (sensing cable) is connected to the unit, power can be applied. The LD2000 operates on 24VDC or 24VAC power. A power supply is not included with the LD2000.
Installation 3.2.3 Communication The LD2000 will not communicate over a user's network the first time it is connected to the network. The manufacturer programs the LD2000 with a default IP address: 10.0.0.188, subnet: 255.255.255.0 and gateway (Def Route): 10.0.0.1. These settings must be changed to IP addresses that correspond with the user's network before the LD2000 can communicate over the network.
