SETUP
The QD2040c Building Controller is recommended to be factory programmed by submitting customer specific networks
at the time of order so no additional software configuration is required.
If a QD2040c was purchased without pre-programming it will be shipped with DHCP client enabled. The configuration
page is available through a browser for additional configuration of the QD2040c local IP address. Contact your network
administrator to determine the local IP address (refer to the MAC address available on the product label).
Factory IP Network Address Configuration
The QD2040c is designed to be hung on a wall using the included mounting bracket and mounting screws. It may also be
set on a shelf or table. Do not allow the mounting screws to touch the circuit board inside the enclosure. When selecting
a location to mount the QD2040c, be sure to allow space for cable connections. Locate the QD2040c away from exces-
sive dust, heat sources, moisture, or direct sunlight. The ideal environment is a server room. The temperature of the room
cannot exceed 77ºF (25ºC), good ventilation is mandatory.
