Configuration
To calibrate the sensor, first install the Laser Defender Manager Software (LDMS) on a laptop or
workstation. This software is provided as a free download with each hardware purchase and can
also be found at www.fibersensys.com/product/product-software. Connect the PC to the Laser
Defender via Ethernet port. Change the network settings of the PC to fit the same subnet as the
lasers default IP address.
(Example: IP address 192.168.0.100 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0 to communicate with the
main port)
LD308SH:
IP address - 192.168.0.126
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway - 192.168.0.1
LD204S:
Main Port - 192.168.0.126
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway - 192.168.0.1
Maintenance Port - 192.168.1.126
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
The LD204S offers two Ethernet ports, main, and maintenance. The main port inside the base is
for constant connection to the LAN. This port supports PoE(+) and provides network alarm
reporting. The maintenance port is used for the initial setup and post-install maintenance. This
port is located near the laser window for easy access and avoids altering the laser alignment.
After launching the manager software, log in using the credentials below.
ID: LASERDEFENDER
Password: FSI
Click on Edit Group/Detector Information to select the detector currently connected to the PC. For
this application note, we are using the LD204S as an example. In LDMS, confirm the PC's IP
address fits the same subnet as the detector's default IP address. Click Connect (F1) to establish
a connection to the Laser Defender.
