Device properties page
The Device page identifies the KMD-5551E translator for the Local Area Network (LAN). The
IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway values are supplied by the IT department
system administrator.
The Device page also identifies the translator as a BACnet device and sets BACnet
communication properties. The default device instance for the translator is 5551.
Note:
Once the window is saved, the translator will use the new settings and will require you to
log in at the new address. If the translator is not on the same subnet as the network
gateway router, it will not function correctly.
Note:
The Device Instance on this page identifies the KMD-5551E translator as a BACnet device
but not KMD controllers as BACnet devices. See the topics
Configuring the KMD Virtual Port
and
KMD Subnet Device Configuration page
