SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND COMPLIANCE DECLARATIONS
PLEASE OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AS OUR
PRODUCTS CONTAIN
CLASS I LASER PRODUCTS
WARNING
This product is a CLASS I LASER PRODUCT only when the units are
connected with a fiber optical cable. Do not disconnect the fiber optic
connector while the unit is powered up. Exposure to laser radiation is possible
when the laser fiber optic connector is disconnected while the unit is powered
up. It should be noted that when the fiber is disconnected, the product will
have CLASS IM INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION.
Although the fiber optic connectors in this product emit only Class 1 energy
that is below the levels considered to be hazardous, one should never stare
directly into a fiber optic connector or an unconnected fiber end unless one
can be certain that no exposure to laser energy could occur.
CAUTION
Only service personnel are intended to access the interior of the units. It
should be cautioned that CLASS 3 INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION WHEN
OPEN, AVOID EXPOSURE TO THE BEAM. The use of controls, making
adjustments, or performing operations other than those specified may result
in hazardous radiation exposure. This product has operating wavelengths at
778nm, 800nm with average -0.5dB to 0dBm optical power per wavelength,
825nm, 911nm, and 980nm. The laser is operated in pulse mode within 1
KHz frequency and ¼ duty cycle.
The following label or equivalent is located on the surface of laser products.
This label indicates that the product is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER
PRODUCT.
SURGE PROTECTION DEVICE RECOMMENDED
This product contains sensitive electrical components that may be damaged
by electrical spikes, surges, electric shock, lightning strikes, etc. Use of
surgeprotectionsystemsishighlyrecommendedinordertoprotectandextend
the life of your equipment.

4.0 LB-ICP WEB SERVER DESCRIPTION
Introduction
The ICP Web Server provides user friendly and intuitive web pages to
configure the 8-button virtual keypad and automation functions within
the ICP. It also provides a web page to manage the IR Learner. A
standard web browser can be used to access the web pages.
Accessing Web Server
The IP address of the ICP must be obtained in order to access the Web
Server. There are 2 ways to obtain the IP address of an ICP.
1) Use the IPCONFIG command in the Configuration Port
Command Line Interface to display the unit’s IP address.
2) Use the BCI PC Configuration Program (see Appendix)
Type in the unit’s IP address in the web browser. The ICP Virtual
Keypad page will be displayed. All 8 keys of the Virtual Keypad are un-
programmed by default. The keys are configured in the Configure
Key Action page.

Digital IO Channel: Select channel 1or 2.
Digital IO Direction: Select channel as a digital Input or Output.
If the Digital IO Direction is set to Input, there is an option for Pullup
Resistor.
Pullup Resistor: Select Enable or Disable pull-up resistor.
If the Digital IO Direction is set to Output, there is an option for Digital
Output Mode.
Digital Output Mode: Select TTL for a 5V compatible TTL type output
or Open Collector for an open collector type output. An open collector
type output can be used to implement a contact closure type output.
For example, if a digital output is set to Open Collector, setting the
Digital Output State to 1 (High) will emulate a switch closure to ground.
Setting the Digital Output State to 0 (Low) will emulate a switch being
open. TheOpenCollectoroutput alsohasan optionfora PullupResistor.
Remote Unit
This panel enables the connection with the remote unit and selects the
remote unit type. This panel is not available if the Local unit type is
Standalone ICP.
Remote Connection: Select Enable to enable the connection with the
remote unit. Select Disable to disable the connection with the remote
unit and enable the RS-232 pass-through channel. None of the remote
unit control outputs will be available once Disable is selected.
Remote Unit: Select the remote unit type. The available remote unit
types are LBC without ICP, LBC with ICP and EAD/SCL with ICP.
NOTE TO SAVE THE CONFIGURATION CORRECTLY, ONE
MUST CLICK “SUBMIT CHANGES” BUTTONS PER
EACH ACTION.

Configure IR Code
The Configure IR Code page is used to learn and manage IR codes in
the ICP. To learn an IR code, type in the label of the IR code in New
Label and click the Learn button. Once IR Learn mode is initiated, the
user needs to present an IR signal to the IR receiver port within 30
seconds. If a valid IR code is not presented within 30 seconds, the IR
learn process will timeout and the process will need to be re-initiated.
After an IR code is learned successfully, it will be stored in memory and
appear in the IR Preset drop down menu. To test a learned IR code,
select the IR code from the IR Preset menu and click Test button.
Verify that the IR code works correctly on the target device. To delete
an IR code from the IR Preset menu, select the desired IR code and
click the Delete button.
On the top menu click Configure and then click IR Code.Thefollowing
page will be displayed:
