Installation Note
Even though you may operate the ARC Plus and PlusConnect on different subnets, Burk Technology
strongly recommends installing the PlusConnect on the same LAN as the ARC Plus. In a network failure,
an ARC Plus can only continue to monitor and control a PlusConnect on the same LAN. If the network
link between the units is not available, ARC Plus macros, alarm monitoring and telephone control will be
unavailable for the PlusConnect unit.
