5.2.5 Global Connections Configuration
The CEA-852 device used for global connections (see Section 6.3.4) can be configured on
the Ethernet port. The global connections function is always enabled on the CEA-852
device. This is indicated by the checkbox
Global Connections (CEA-852)
on the
Ethernet
tab of the port configuration page as shown in Figure 51. The settings are shared with the
CEA-709 over IP
settings, if that protocol is enabled. Otherwise, the CEA-852 device is
configured on this tab as described in Section 5.2.4.
If the user does not want to share the CEA-709 over IP channel with his global connections,
the checkbox
Use separate IP channel for global connections
can be activated. In this
case, a separate CEA-852 device is configured on this tab as described in Section 5.2.4.
Note, that this CEA-852 device will need a different port number, e.g. 1630. In this case,
also a separate configuration server must be used.

5.2.6 BACnet/IP Configuration (LDALI-20X only)
The BACnet/IP protocol is available on the Ethernet port. To enable BACnet/IP on the
device, select the BACnet/IP checkbox on the Ethernet tab of the port configuration page.
Please note that the BACnet MS/TP protocol will be disabled.
The BACnet/IP protocol settings are displayed in the settings box on the right-hand side as
shown in Figure 52. If the BACnet/IP network uses a non-default UDP port number other
than 47808/0xBAC0, enter this port in the
BACnet/IP
port
field. Enter ‘0’ in this field for
switching back to the default setting.
Figure 52: BACnet/IP Configuration.
In the field
BACnet/IP mode
the operation mode of the device is selected:
Device
(Default): In this mode the device operates as a regular BACnet/IP device on
the local network without other advanced features.
Foreign Device
(FD): In this mode, the device registers at an existing BBMD in the
BACnet/IP network as a foreign device. It is used, if the device is located as a single
BACnet/IP device on a remote IP subnet or behind a NAT router. If operated as a
