    Amphenol C016 20 D 003 100 12 cable connector (female, IP67- rated). Power can be relayed to another LC Plus panel via the throughput socket (see E in Figure 1 on page 6). This socket accepts an Amphenol C016 20 H 003 100 12 cable connector (male, IP67- rated).
  • Page 14 Figure 9: Amphenol power cable connector assembly instructions The Amphenol C016 ecomate series power cable connectors used with the LC Plus accept power cable from 6 mm (0.24 in.) to 9 mm (0.35 in.) diameter when fitted with a standard cable gasket, or from 9 mm (0.35 in.) to 12.5 mm (0.5 in.) diameter when fitted with an optional heavy gauge cable gasket.
  • Page 15 Power plugs and power outlet sockets A power plug must be installed on the power input cable so that you can connect LC Plus panels to AC mains power. Install a grounding-type (earthed) industrial 3-prong type B plug (see Figure 10) that complies with IEC 60309 or a comparable national standard and is rated 16 A minimum, and use corresponding power outlet sockets.
  • Page 16: P3 Communication Link

    Each LC Plus panel has two RJ-45 Ethernet sockets (see A and B in Figure 1 on page 6) for connection to the P3 link. All sockets are bi-directional, handling both P3 signal input and output.

    1. Plug an Ethernet patch cable running from the P3-100 System Controller’s P3 signal output socket into one of the RJ-45 Ethernet ports on the first LC Plus panel (it does not matter which port you use, as both P3 connectors can be used for input and output). In outdoor or wet locations, an IP67-rated Amphenol RJF RB 6 housing must be installed on the RJ-45 plug.

    This section covers the needs of the installer and technician only. It explains the options available for configuration and testing of LC Plus panels, but it does not explain how to allocate addresses to panels or the options available for displaying video. For details of these, see the P3-100 System Controller user documentation.

  • Page 21: Resetting And Rebooting Panels

    Resetting and rebooting panels If it becomes necessary to reset an LC Plus panel, it is possible to force a 'normal reboot' (which causes the panel to reset and start up as it normally would when power is applied), or a 'factory reboot' (which causes the panel to start up the original factory-programmed firmware).
  • Page 22: Service And Maintenance

    The user will need to carry out periodic cleaning, and it is also possible for the user to update the LC Plus firmware quickly and easily from the P3-100 System Controller. All other service operations must be carried out by Martin Professional or its approved service agents.
