power on self TesT (posT)
When the power switch is turned on, the red and green input LEDs will begin a blinking pattern to indicate that the unit is
booting up and performing internal diagnostic tests. When the LEDs stop blinking, the unit is fully booted and operational.
The boot and Power On Self Test take approximately 1 minute.
ConneCTinG sensors
The IMS-4000 Host has eight sensor inputs. Each input can accept any sensor type. Sensors are available to monitor the fol-
lowing:
• Temperature
• Smoke
• Humidity • Security
• Water detection • Motion
• AC voltage • Alarm contacts from external equipment
All IMS-4000 sensors connect to the Host using standard RJ-45 cables. This makes it easy to connect sensors directly to the
unit. Simply plug one end of the cable into the sensor and the other end into one of the sensor inputs on the Host.
Another benefit of using RJ-45 connectors is that you can easily locate sensors at distant locations within your facility by
using your existing structured cabling. For example: Suppose you have an IMS-4000 installed in room A and you want to
install a sensor in room B. If your existing cabling infrastructure has an unused cable path between room A and room B,
then you simply use an RJ-45 interconnect cable to connect the IMS-4000 to the patch panel in room A, and an RJ-45 inter-
connect cable from the wall jack in room B to the sensor.
CAUTION: The sensor produces an analog signal which must connect directly to the Host or Node. The path
from the sensor to the IMS unit CANNOT pass through a network Hub or Switch.
neTwork ConfiGUraTion
The IMS-4000 Host has a serial port on the front panel which is used to configure network settings and security options. A
dumb terminal or terminal emulation software is required to get online and set up the configuration. The port is male DTE,
so you will need to use a null modem cable. Terminal communication settings must be set to:
• 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit
To get online with the IMS-4000, connect your terminal to the serial port and press <RETURN>. A menu will appear which
will guide you through the setup.
