NETCOM2P Installation Guide
This guide outlines how to install and program the NETCOM2P—serial to Ethernet
converter—for network communication. As the NETCOM2P can be configured to operate
with a CIM or directly from a PC109x or later ACU control board, this guide is divided into
the following two separate installation sections:
NETCOM2P/CIM Installation—page 2
NETCOM2P/ACU Control Board Installation (PC109x or later)—page 11
Please refer to the appropriate installation instructions and diagrams. Installation
procedures are different for each type of configuration.
Important
Installing the NETCOM2P involves two connection procedures, temporary serial
programming connections and permanent operation connections. This applies to both types
of installations. Please be sure to review the relevant diagrams for programming and
operating connections.
Before You Start
Verify that you have all the parts as outlined below.
Obtain a static IP address, Subnet Mask, and, if applicable, a Gateway from the
network administrator for each NETCOM2P. Space for recording addresses is provided
at the back.
Ensure that you install the latest Keyscan NETCOM Program Tool utility, which is on
the enclosed CD, on a laptop or PC that can be serially connected to program the
NETCOM2P.
If using Keyscan Aurora software, the control board requires firmware version 9.20 or
higher.
About the Reset Function
During the NETCOM2P programming procedures, you are prompted to reset the device,
which is a soft re-boot. This is equivalent to a power cycle.

terminal block to program the device. To install the Keyscan NETCOM Program Tool utility,
load the Keyscan Utilities & Drivers CD into the CD-ROM or DVD drive. Locate and double
click on the Keyscan NETCOM Setup and follow the on-screen prompts.
Important
If you program the NETCOM2P with a previous version of the NETCOM Program Utility, you
may experience technical difficulties. You may have to re-program the NETCOM following
the procedures outlined in Manually Configure the NETCOM2 via a Serial Connection
located on page 18.
Connection Diagrams
Connection diagrams are on the succeeding pages of the guide as outlined:
See Figure 1 to Figure 4 for temporary serial programming connections to the
laptop/PC with the Keyscan NETCOM Program Tool utility software.
See Figure 5 for NETCOM2P/CIM permanent operating connections on the network.
Steps to Program and Install a NETCOM2P with a CIM
The NETCOM2P can only be programmed using a direct serial connection via the CIM
terminal block.

3. On the CIM circuit board, place a jumper on J12.
4. Connect the ribbon cable from the HDR1 terminal on the CIM circuit board to the H2
terminal on the control board. See Figure 1 or Figure 3. The H2 terminal provides
power to the CIM and the NETCOMP.
5. Ensure the control board has power.
6. If the control board is newly installed and this is the first time it is powered up,
restore the factory defaults as outlined depending on the version of PC109x control
board:
J16 Jumpers –after applying power, place a jumper ON J16—pin H, then
momentarily place a jumper ON J1—Clear Memory to load the factory defaults.
Allow approximately 2 minutes and do not make any changes while the control
board re-configures. Remove the jumper from J16—pin H.
S1 and S3 Switches –After applying power, press S1, wait 5 seconds, and then
press S3 within 10 seconds to load the factory defaults. Allow approximately 2
minutes and do not make any changes while the control board re-configures.

J16 Jumpers - Place a jumper on J16—pin H. Momentarily place a jumper on J1
to re-load the factory default settings. This may take two minutes. Do not make
any changes to the control board while the system status LED is flashing red and
the piezo is beeping. When completed, remove the jumper from J16—pin H.
S1 and S3 Switches –After applying power, press S1, wait 5 seconds, and then
press S3 within 10 seconds to load the factory defaults. Allow approximately 2
minutes and do not make any changes to the control board while the system
status LED is flashing red and the piezo is beeping.
31. Close and secure the ACU enclosure door.
32. Depending on the type of installation do one of the following steps:
If this is a new installation, install the Keyscan software, set up the site, and
perform a full panel upload.
If this is an existing installation, log on to a Client software module, edit the site
setup screens and perform a panel upload.

NETCOM2P/Control Board Operational Connections
Figure 8 illustrates NETCOM2P operating connections and jumper settings when mounted
on a PC109x or higher control board. This configuration only supports a single control
board communication loop.
Multiple Building Communication on a WAN
Keyscan requires a point-to-point private network where NETCOMs are used on a LAN/WAN
(TCP/IP) that integrates building to building communication.

Manually Configure the NETCOM2P via a Serial
Connection
These procedures should only be performed in the event that the NETCOM Program Tool
utility was used to program the NETCOM2P and the device is still failing to communicate.
If this condition does not apply to the NETCOM2P, use the appropriate procedures outlined
in the preceding sections of this installation guide.
These procedures are intended for advanced computer users only.
Important
Keyscan recommends that you review the setup procedures before you actually perform
them so you are familiar with the steps, some of which are intricate and require quick
dexterity.
1. Depending on the type of NETCOM2P installation, refer to the Temporary Serial
Programming Connection diagrams - NETCOM2P/CIM or NETCOM2P/ACU Control
Board and with the serial data cable establish a connection to the PC laptop with the
NETCOM Program Tool utility.
2. Ensure you have made the necessary settings as indicated on the respective
temporary serial programming diagrams.
If you reset jumpers on the CIM board when powered, ensure that you
momentarily place a jumper on the J1 RESET pins to re-configure the board
If you reset jumpers or DIP switches on the control board when powered, ensure
that you momentarily place a jumper on the J6 RESET pins or press the S1
switch to re-initialize the control board
3. Open the NETCOM Program Tool utility and select the Keyscan Hyper Terminal button.
4. The Comm Port Number is defaulted to port #1. If you are using a different port
connection, select the correct port #.
5. Leave the baud rate set on 9600. Click on the Open Port button.
If this fails, then you will have to re-open the session and try with the baud rate
set at 57,600.
6. To enter Setup Mode, reset the NETCOM2P as follows:
NETCOM2P/CIM –momentarily place a jumper on the CIM board’s J1 RESET pins
NETCOM2P/ACU –momentarily place a jumper on the control board’s J6 pins or
press the S1 switch
7. Within 1 second of the NETCOM2P reset, enter 3 lowercase x characters—xxx.
Tip—The easiest way to enter Setup Mode is to hold down the x key at the
terminal (or emulation) while resetting the unit.
8. When the Setup Mode window opens, press the Enter key within 5 seconds to enter
setup mode.
9. Once you reach the Change Setup: prompt, Press 0 for Server setup parameters and
enter the following values for 0 Server and 1 Channel 1 (Keyscan Values)
10. Go to the next page for setting NETCOM2P values.
