KMD-5290E LAN Controller
Installation and Operation Guide
INTRODUCTION
These are instructions for installing and operating a KMD-
5290E LAN Controller. Review this material in its entirety
before installing or operating the controller.
OVERVIEW
The LAN Controller may be operated in a stand alone
configuration or as part of a fully networked digital system.
The KMD-5290E uses Tier 1 networks with Ethernet hardware
to communicate with other LAN Controllers. The controller
also supports remote access to a Tier 1 network through a
dedicated serial port for direct connection to a PC. Unlike
legacy KMD LAN controllers, the KMD-5290E does not support
Tier 1 networking using EIA-485 connections.
The LAN Controller supports Tier 2 networks with two
dedicated RS-485 ports. Up to 32 KMD-5290E controllers can be
integrated into a single peer-to-peer network, each supporting
up to 124 nodes on each Tier 2 network.
The firmware in the controller uses Control Basic, a high-level,
easy-to-learn programming language. This programming
functionality is available from within KMC Connect and
TotalControl™ software.
