Installing the LPR Router

Installation of the LPR-1X module involves the following steps:

1. Ensure that the Type 2 or Type 2D Base Plate has been wired and installed

correctly, and is securely fastened to the electrical enclosure.

2. Check for continuity on all network and power wiring. There are no I/O

connections on a Type 2 or Type 2D Base Plate.

3. Make certain that all network channels are terminated with the correct number

and type of terminator. Terminator(s) may be installed in unused screw

terminals at end of network run(s).

4. Insert the LPR Router into the Base Plate by aligning the network access jacks

on the LPR Router with the arrow head on the Base Plate (the arrow should

point in the direction of the jacks), and then pressing firmly to ensure that the

module is properly seated in its mating Base Plate connector.

5. The LPR Router can be hot-plugged: there is no need to disconnect power when

installing the module. If power is present then the Power LED will illuminate

continuously. If power is not present then the Power LED will remain off.

6. Securely attach the LPR Router to the Base Plate by screwing the two Echelon

205-0130-01 screws (8-32 [M8], 3/8” [9.5mm]) into the threaded inserts in the

Base Plate. Use approximately 4 lbs. in/0.5Nm torque on the screws.

7. Follow the router configuration procedure described in the LonMaker for

Windows User’s Guide

to configure the software in the LPR Router.

8. See Troubleshooting for assistance with improper LPR Router operation.
