LAN port — If desired, connect a network WAN or LAN hub, a
control system, or computer to the Ethernet RJ-45 port.
•
Network connection — Wire as a patch (straight) cable.
• Computer or control system connection — Wire the
interface cable as a crossover cable.
N
The factory default IP address is 192.168.254.254.
BME connection and selection
N
BME 0 should house the front panel controller (if included
in your system) and be the BME used for system control
and monitoring via the serial and Ethernet LAN ports.
i
BME address switch — Each BME must be set to a unique
address of 0 through 5 (addresses 6 through 9 are invalid).

Sync BMEs cannot be set to address 0.
The addresses used in the system must be sequential with no
skipped numbers.
j
BME COMM interconnect ports — The BMEs in multiple BME
systems must be daisy-chained.
Connect an RJ-45 cable from BME 0’s BME Comm Out connector
to the nearest BME’s BME Comm In connector (usually BME 1).
