Configuration Setup
Once hardware installation is complete, set up the system configuration. The LS450 Config Tool is used
to configure the system, and is installed on a technician’s laptop which is connected to the Tek-CARE
Network.
To begin setting up the system configuration, ensure that the NC120 CE Modules are powered on,
uniquely addressed, and networked together.
Connect the LS450 Config Tool Programming Software
In order to connect to the NC120 CE Modules, the IP address of the computer used for programming
must be on the same subnet as the NC120 CE Modules. Set the static IP of the laptop to be
192.168.1.178.
Next, connect a standard Ethernet patch cable between the programming computer and the networked
CE modules.
About Points
The most important concept of the Tek-CARE120 system are the points on the LI122-Series and PM120
Room Controllers. The points are the six physical connections on the rear of each controller, shown as
points 1-6 in the configuration. In addition to the physical points, there are also two additional points
present in the configuration, one for the red dome LED and one for the white dome LED.
By default, all of the room controller points are assigned to a Station ID in the Config Tool. The phys-
ical address of the room controller determines which Station ID points are assigned by default. In the
example below, notice that points 1-6 on the controller with
Address 0 on Port 0 of Module 1
are
assigned to
Station 0100
by default.

Note:
In order to assign points on a single controller to multiple stations, an LS450 Con-
fig Tool Plus or LS450 Config Tool Elite license is required
