Attaching Ferrules to LM-MSTP Wires
Wattstopper recommends attaching ferrules to the LM-MSTP wires to help maintain signal integrity. Wires should be stripped as shown
in the diagram below. Insert the wire into a ferrule and crimp the end, using a crimping tool designed to work with ferrules. Then insert
the end of the ferrule into the appropriate slot in the terminal block.
Ethernet
Two female 10/100-Mbit Ethernet connections are provided on the LMJA-8125/8300. These are RJ-45 connectors labeled SEC and
PRI. Use a standard Ethernet patch cable for connecting to an Ethernet switch. An activity LED for each Ethernet port is visible and they
are labeled “SEC” (for LAN2) and “PRI” (for LAN1) on the cover.
The factory-default
IP address for LAN1
on a LMJA-8xxx is
192.168.1.140
. This address can be changed. See the Segment Manager
2.4 Operation Manual for details.
The
subnet mask
is
255.255.255.0
.
The factory-default
IP address for LAN2
on a LMJA-8xxx is
192.168.5.140
.
Serial Port LEDs
See page 6.
Connecting the LMJA-8xxx to an MS/TP Network
The LMJA-8xxx should always be placed at one end of an MS/TP segment. There is a maximum of 40 LMBC-300s or panels (with a
maximum of 340 total DLM devices) per segment network.
NOTE:
Because panels are a much larger collection of objects, they count as multiple rooms and devices. See the table in the next section.
NOTE:
With large implementations, Wattstopper recommends not fully loading a segment to maximum capacity, to allow for future
changes or additions to the segment.
