lCP setup
LCP Setup sets up the communication link at your PC or server in the office, configuring the office computer
for wireless communication. LCP Setup contains settings for IP configurations (Wifi and cellular) and serial
configurations (radio and direct serial cable). For successful data transmission, the settings in LCP Setup must be
configured to match the communication settings of the DMSs, LCR 600s, and wireless transmission devices in the LC
fueling network. LCP Setup includes a Test tab, where connection between the computer and a specific DMS or LCR
600 (or another computer) can be tested.
