Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a Honeywell Internet Connection Module (ICM).
The ICM is the heart of a state of the art control system that uses Internet Protocol (IP)
and standard Ethernet hardware to integrate control of consumer electronic equipment
with computer networking.
This User’s Guide explains the setup and installation process for an ICM. This guide
assumes that the installer is familiar with IP networking concepts. See the Networking
Primer for a review of IP networking concepts and terminology.
There are four basic steps that you will need to take to set up your system:
1.
Set up the network.
2.
Set up the network controller hardware.
3.
Connect the ICMs to the devices and the system.
4.
Set up the ICMs on the system.
NOTE:
A hardware device connected to an Ethernet network is called a
node.
Node is
a general term for an ICM, and sometimes an ICM will be referred to as a node.
