Setting up a single device using Commissioning
These instructions assume that you have a PC running a licensed copy of Niagara 4.7 Workbench or later, installed with the
“installation tool” option. That option copies distribution files needed for commissioning various models of controllers. This PC is
referred to as “your PC.”
Note:
Your PC must meet minimum hardware/operating system requirements for the Workbench workstation. This includes a working
Ethernet adapter with TCP/IP support (browser capable). An Ethernet TCP/IP connection to the MS-E10 device is required to
install Niagara software and establish other parameters.
For this initial Ethernet connection, you can use either of the following:
•
An Ethernet patch cable connected directly between your PC and the MS-E10 device (if your PC Ethernet port is not
“auto-sensing”, you will need an Ethernet crossover cable)
Note:
If in daisy chain mode connect both the PC and the MS-E10 devices to a switch.
•
A normal LAN connection, meaning that both your PC and the MS-E10 device are physically connected to the same
Ethernet hub or switch.
Preparing for new device commissioning
To prepare for new E10 device commissioning, perform the following steps:
Prerequisites:
•
Niagara 4.7 or later Workbench
Step 1: If not already installed, install the Niagara 4.7 or later software on your PC, including its permanent license.
Step 2: Typically, the license file for the MS-E10 device already resides on the licensing server, where (if you have Internet
connectivity) it is automatically retrieved during the licensing step of the Commissioning Wizard.
Note:
If you were emailed a license archive (.lar file) or .license file for the MS-E10
device, and you wish to use it instead of the online
license server (for some reason, for example your Workbench PC will not have Internet connectivity when you are
commissioning the device, make the file available to Workbench first, as follows:
Copy the file to your
!security/licenses/inbox
folder, then restart Workbench. For more details, refer to the
section “Local license inbox” in the
Niagara Platform Guide
.
Step 3: Attach one end of a standard category-5 Ethernet unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cable to the RJ-45 Ethernet
connector for LAN1 (labeled PRI) on the MS-E10 device.
Step 4: Attach the other end of the patch cable to a network port or directly to an Ethernet hub.
Step 5: Power up the MS-E10 device.
Step 6: Record your PC’s current IP settings, then re-assign your PC’s IP address for its Ethernet NIC (network interface card). If
necessary, refer to Windows online Help for details on configuring TCP/IP settings.
