C-Bus Network Interface Installation Instructions
11.0 Megger Testing
Important points when megger testing an electrical installation:
• Only megger test when mains cabling is disconnected from C-Bus
output units.
• Do not megger test the C-Bus cable.
12.0 Configuration
12.1 C-Bus Programming
The 5500CN Series C-Bus Network Interface (CNI) must be programmed
with a unique identification address (Unit Address). This is accomplished
using the C-Bus Toolkit software, available from the downloads section of
the Clipsal Integrated Systems (CIS) web site (http://www.clipsal.com/cis).
C-Bus Toolkit is also used to enable the C-Bus system clock and burden if
required.
12.2 Ethernet Setup
The 5500CN Series C-Bus Network Interface (CNI) is capable of using a
DHCP server to configure its IP address, or it may be configured with a
static IP address. In its factory default state, the unit uses a DHCP server.
If you are using a new CNI (with factory settings) on a network which uses
a DHCP server, you do not need to configure the unit’s Ethernet settings.
In other cases, you must configure the Ethernet settings (unless the unit is
set to an acceptable, known static IP address). Do this on your connected
PC using either:
• telnet (Windows XP or Linux platform)
• a web browser (Windows XP or Linux platform, with Java installed)
• the Lantronix DeviceInstaller software (Windows platform, with
Microsoft .NET framework installed).
Whichever method you choose, connect the Ethernet ports of your PC and
CNI (either directly or via a network switch or hub). Use a crossover
network cable if using a direct connection. The CNI's Ethernet indicator will
be orange if the Ethernet connection is wired correctly.
