2. Setting Up the MS-ICS Hardware:
DIP Switches:
The four switches on S1 DIP switch are used to configure the operating mode of the MS-ICS controller. DIP
switches are read on power-up except where noted. Pressing switch S2 causes the MS-ICS to reboot.

In the factory or OEM default modes, downloaded configuration/database is not saved to flash memory.
Factory Default Communication Parameters:
Network: static IP address: 192.168.0.251
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1
DNS Server: 192.168.0.1
Primary Host port: IP server, no encryption, port 3001, communication address: 0
Alternate Host Port 1: RS-232, 38,400 baud, no encryption, no flow control.
3. Input Power Wiring:
The MS-ACS requires 12 Vdc for input power and is connected to J2. Pins 1 and 2 are connected to ground
and pin 3 is connected to +12 Vdc.
Observe POLARITY on 12 Vdc input!
J2 mates with the following housing and uses two crimp contacts:
Housing: Molex 39-01-4030
Crimp contact: Molex 39-00-0047 (22-28 gauge), 39-00-0039 (18-24 gauge)
4. Cabinet Tamper, Low UPS Battery and UPS Fault Input Wiring:
There are three dedicated inputs for cabinet tamper, low UPS battery and UPS
fault monitoring. Normal (safe) condition is a closed contact. If these inputs are
not used, suggest installing a jumper wire.
5. Communication Wiring:
The MS-ICS controller communicates to the host via the on-board Ethernet 10-BaseT/100Base-TX port.
An alternate Ethernet 10-BaseT/100Base-TX host communication port connection is supported by using the
optional Lantronix Micro125 Ethernet interface daughter board. This alternate host connection has not been
evaluated by UL.
J1 connects to the first MS-ACS board.
The 34-conductor ribbon cable is non-standard. Do not use a floppy disk drive cable.
TB2 is used to connect to remote serial I/O panels. This 2-wire RS-485 interface allows multi-drop
communication on a single bus of up to 4,000 feet (1,219 m). Use twisted pair (minimum 24 AWG) with a drain
wire and shield for communication. Install termination jumpers only on the units at each end of the
communication line.
