4. Push the Down button until the IP

address is highlighted. By default,

the IP address is 10.0.0.188. Press

the Select button to change the IP

address.

5. Use the backspace button to delete

the default address. Enter the new

IP address, as provided by your

network administrator. Press the

Enter button to apply the new IP address.

6. Scroll down to the Def Route and Net Mask and use the same method to edit

the Default Gateway and Subnet Mask information as necessary.

Test the System

If the LD5200 is already connected to a BMS or NMS, notify monitoring personnel

before you begin testing the system.

1. Using a sketch or mechanical drawing of the facility, add the cable routing,

connection points, and any accessories used. Record the distance marker

when the cable changes direction and in between connectors.

2. The more details you show, the greater the benefit later when you are

locating leaks and troubleshooting the system

3. To verify the LD5200’s functionality, test three points within the length of

sensing cable - one at the beginning, one in the middle of the length, and

another near the end of the length of cable.

4. There are a variety of ways to simulate a leak.

• Pour a small puddle of water on the cable while it rests on the floor.

• Dunk the cable in a cup of water.

• Soak a paper towel or rag and wrap it loosely around the cable. This is

popular if the cable is used in pipe applications. Be careful to wrap the wet

cloth loosely around the cable. Do not put pressure on the cable.

IMPORTANT - To avoid inaccurate readings, do not grip the cable with your

hand.

5. Verify that the LD5200 reports the leaks within a few feet of their actual

physical location. If the leaks are reported in the approximate location, but

not precisely at the actual location of the leak, you may wish to calibrate the

system. Consult the LD5200 User Guide to calibrate the cable’s resistance,

which will provide the most accurate distance readings.

6. Remove all simulated leak sources and return the system to its normal

operating state.

7. To test the cable fault alarm, remove the end-of-line terminator (EOL) from

the end of the sensing cable. This will cause a cable break, which should

be reported appropriately by the LD5200. Once the cable break alarm

is verified, reapply the EOL and ensure the system returns to its normal

operating state.
