Device ID
The rotary ID switches are located on the back of the LSI-16/LSI-16e and give the unit a unique Device ID. The switches are in
hexadecimal format. To assign a Device ID of hex 07, turn the LSB switch to 7 and leave the MSB switch on 0. To create an ID of hex B7,
turn the LSB switch to 7 and turn the MSB switch to B. Device ID switches should be set using a 0.1 inch (2.5mm) to 0.12 inch (3.0mm)
flat blade screwdriver. More information on setting IDs and the hexadecimal numbering scheme used in Vocia can be found in the Vocia
Help File.
Please note: Changes made to the Device ID while connected to the network require a power cycle in order to take effect.
Network Connection
The LSI-16/LSI-16e has two RJ45 Ethernet connectors. These provide redundant network capability as well as a secondary source of
power (PoE). If communication is lost on either Ethernet port, the LSI-16/LSI-16e reports a fault. For this reason, both Ethernet ports must
be connected to the Vocia network. To provide Auxiliary power PoE should be supplied to both Ethernet ports. An LED adjacent to each
RJ45 connector indicates that PoE is being supplied via that port.
The RJ45 connectors utilize standard copper Ethernet cabling to interface the LSI-16/LSI-16e to the Vocia system via a PoE-
compliant network switch. The RJ45 connector provides two LEDs that indicate Ethernet link and network activity (see table below).
