TION MODE
Applied F-series endpoint firmware package: v2.0.0 | Applied R-series endpoint firmware package: v2.0.0 | LDC software: v2.5.9b3
5.3. Ethernet Control Interface
The endpoint device can be controlled via Ethernet port. This interface supports any third-party system
controller with LW3 command protocol. The interface can be used to configure the device with Lightware
Device Controller and establish the connection to Lightware Device Updater software and perform firmware
update.
Two Ethernet connectors provide a wide range of application possibilities:
▪
Control the device
▪
Firmware update
▪
Create a local network
▪
Daisy chain connection

Ethernet Interface - Example
The
transmitters
are connected to each other via LAN, the
receivers
connected to the
transmitters
via optical
fiber or DAC cables.
This way the
laptop
can control the system with Ethernet commands:
▪
UBEX transmitter (1-3).
▪
UBEX receiver (1-3).
ATTENTION!
When one of the extender is in firmware update mode, the Ethernet communication will be
lost during the update procedure.
