CICP18ACCNETBD Ethernet Board
Installation Instructions
For Superterm and Accelaterm Control Panels
FOR SUPERTERM INSTALLATIONS:
The CICP18ACCNETBD Ethernet board is mounted in the
CICP18ACCBD Accelerator board (see installation instructions
WI1593 for more information regarding the installation of the
CICP18ACCBD Accelerator board).
Note: For best performance, one CICP18ACCNETBD Ethernet
board should be installed in each CICP18ACCBD accelerator
board in each control panel. However, one CICP18ACCNETBD
Ethernet board connection may be shared (networked) with up to
63 other Accelerator-equipped Superterm panels. See WI1073 for
more information regarding Superterm network configurations.
Prior to opening the Ethernet board package or
touching anything inside the control panel enclosure,
discharge any static electricity from your body or
clothing. Use a grounded wrist strap or touch an
unpainted, grounded metal object such as the metal
frame of the panel enclosure.
INSTALLATION
1. Find the MAC address located on the
white label wrapped around the
Ethernet plug (circled in Fig. 1 at
right). Write the MAC address here:
_______________________ and
keep this paper in a safe location for
future reference.
2. Before installation, verify that the panel and Accelerator board
are both working correctly. Verify that both the OK lamp
(LED) on the Accelerator board and the heartbeat lamp on the
motherboard (location T1) blink in unison once per second.
Verify the MEMORY BACKUP CELL jumper is in the IN
position providing memory data retention.
3. Inside the panel housing, remove power from the main control
panel PCB by pushing the POWER plug connector (located
on the lower right of the PCB) downward until the connector
is completely separated from the PCB. Do not disconnect the
battery wires. See Fig. 2, below (left).
4. Align the board: Use the image in Fig. 3 (above) to find the
Ethernet board mounting location near the top of the
CICP18ACCBD Accelerator board. Carefully align the two
Ethernet board snap-lock standoffs with the two Accelerator
PC board mounting holes. Then align the Ethernet board plug
with the Accelerator board receptacle (JP4) as shown below.
Insert the board: With both standoffs and the plug aligned,
firmly press the Ethernet board into the Accelerator board by
squeezing the Ethernet board receptacle. Use your fingers to
hold the accelerator board while squeezing the Ethernet board
as shown Fig. 4.

5. Insert your CAT5/6 Ethernet cable first
through a cable clamp (Fig. 5) and then
through a knockout located on the left side
of the panel enclosure. Pull only enough
of the Ethernet cable into the enclosure to
allow the plug to be easily inserted into
the Ethernet board receptacle.
6. In the parts bag, find the silver braided shield. For FCC com-
pliance, this braided shield must be both secured to the cable
clamp and placed over the Ethernet cable in the interior of the
panel enclosure.
Note: The presence of this silver braided shield makes
shielded twisted pair (STP) cable unnecessary. In addition,
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable does not need to be
routed in conduit.
Before tightening the cable
clamp, place the braided shield
over the Ethernet cable. Pull the
braided shield out through the
panel knockout and into the cable
clamp. Thus, the braided shield
is grounded to the panel enclo-
sure by the cable clamp (as
shown in Fig. 6.
7. The Ethernet cable must be covered by the braided shield but
leave about one inch of cable exposed near the
plug. Note that this one inch of exposed cable
should be measured with the Ethernet cable
plugged into the Ethernet board receptacle. If
desired, use electrical tape to cover the end of the
braided shield as shown in Fig. 7, below.
DO NOT cover the plug with the braided shield.
Be sure to tighten the cable clamp screws securing both the
Ethernet cable and the braided shield to the panel enclosure.
8. Plug the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet board receptacle.
9. Re-connect power from the main Superterm PCB by pushing
the POWER plug connector on the lower right of the PCB
upward into the PCB. Verify that the OK lamp (LED) on the
Accelerator board blinks on and off once per second. Also
verify the heartbeat lamp on the motherboard (location T1)
blinks in unison with the OK lamp on the Accelerator board.
Note: The status LEDs on the top of the Ethernet board re-
ceptacle will blink when network activity is detected (see im-
age in Fig. 8 for the location of these status LEDs).
Note: On the CICP2800PMBD Base Processor PC board,
be sure the MEMORY BACKUP CELL jumper is in the IN
position to provide memory data retention. See Fig. 9 and
WI2044 for complete installation instructions for the
CICP2800PMBD.

FOR ACCELATERM INSTALLATIONS
The CICP18ACCNETBD Ethernet board is mounted in the Ac-
celaterm Interface board (see the Accelaterm installation instruc-
tions WI1989 for more information regarding the Interface board
installation).
Prior to opening the Ethernet board package or
touching anything inside the control panel enclosure,
discharge any static electricity from your body or
clothing. Use a grounded wrist strap or touch an
unpainted, grounded metal object such as the metal
frame of the panel enclosure.
INSTALLATION
1. Find the MAC address located on
the white label wrapped around the
Ethernet plug (circled in Fig. 10 at
right). Write the MAC address here:
_______________________ and
keep this paper in a safe location for
future reference.
2. Before installation, verify that the Accelaterm control panel is
working correctly.
3. Disconnect power to the system, including the battery wires.
4. Align the board: The Ethernet board is mounted in the top
right corner of the Accelaterm Interface board. See Fig. 11.
Carefully align the two Ethernet board snap-lock standoffs
with the two Interface PC board mounting holes. Then align
the Ethernet board plug with the Interface board receptacle
"JP2" as shown below.
Insert the board: With both standoffs and the plug aligned,
firmly press the Ethernet board into the Accelaterm Interface
board by holding the Interface board with the tips of your fin-
gers and squeezing the Ethernet board as shown Fig. 12.
5. Insert your CAT5/6 Ethernet cable first
through a cable clamp (Fig. 13) and then
through a knockout located on the right
side of the panel enclosure. Pull only
enough of the Ethernet cable into the en-
closure to allow the plug to be easily in-
serted into the Ethernet board receptacle.
6. In the parts bag, find the silver braided
shield. For FCC compliance, this braided shield must be both
secured to the cable clamp and placed over the Ethernet cable
in the interior of the panel enclosure.
Note: The presence of this silver braided shield makes
shielded twisted pair (STP) cable unnecessary. In addition,
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable does not need to be
routed in conduit.
Before tightening the cable
clamp, place the braided shield
over the Ethernet cable. Pull the
braided shield out through the
panel knockout and into the ca-
ble clamp. Thus, the braided
shield is grounded to the panel
enclosure by the cable clamp (as
shown in Fig. 14.
7. The Ethernet cable must be covered by the braided shield but
leave about one inch of cable exposed near the
plug. Note that this one inch of exposed cable
should be measured with the Ethernet cable
plugged into the Ethernet board receptacle. If
desired, use electrical tape to cover the end of
the braided shield similar to the image shown in the Fig. 7
photograph earlier in this manual.
DO NOT cover the plug with the braided shield.

Be sure to tighten the cable clamp screws securing both the
Ethernet cable and the braided shield to the panel enclosure.
8. Plug the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet board receptacle.
9. Re-connect power to the system, including the battery wires.
Verify that the OK lamp (LED) on the Interface board blinks
on and off once per second. Also verify the heartbeat lamp on
the motherboard (location T1) blinks in unison with the OK
lamp on the Interface board.
Note: The status LEDs on the top of the Ethernet board re-
ceptacle will blink when network activity is detected (see im-
age in Fig. 15 for the location of these status LEDs).
Note: On the CICP2800PMBD Base Processor PC board,
be sure the MEMORY BACKUP CELL jumper is in the IN
position to provide memory data retention. See Fig. 16 below
and WI2044 for complete installation instructions for the
CICP2800PMBD.
