Section 1 –Install/Configure the NETCOM2
Rev. B
This section outlines the procedures for installing and configuring the NETCOM2 Rev. B.
After completing the instructions in section 1, ensure you review and complete the
instructions in section 2.
Keyscan recommends that you review the document first, before beginning the installation.
Important
If you are installing more than one NETCOM2 Rev. B, do not apply power to more than one
NETCOM2 Rev. B at a time until each unit has been programmed with its assigned static IP
address. If you apply power to multiple NETCOM2 Rev. Bs while they are configured with
the same embedded programming IP address, you will create an address conflict on the
network. As a result, you will not be able to program the units.

Embedded Programming IP Address
The NETCOM2 Rev. B has three (3) embedded programming addresses. You select one of
these addresses by setting the DIP switches S2.4 and S2.5 as outlined in Table 2. These
addresses act as a temporary IP to connect the NETCOM2 Rev. B with a server/laptop that
has the Keyscan NETCOM Utility. The NETCOM2 Rev. B and the server/laptop must be on a
local network for programming. The NETCOM2 Rev. B is not programmable via routers.
You must select an embedded programming IP address that matches the first three octets
used by your network. Octets are the series of numbers separated by a period (.).
Example of first three octets in an IP address - 192.168.100.
If you do not use matching octets you will not be able to communicate with the NETCOM2
Rev. B.

Using the Embedded IP Address as the Static IP Address
Although Keyscan does not recommend this, as an option the embedded programming IP
address may also be used as the static IP address. If you elect to do this you only need to
set the embedded IP address as outlined in the instructions below. The device does not
have to be programmed with the Keyscan NETCOM Program Utility. In the Client software,
the panels on the communication loop must have the embedded programming IP specified.
Using the embedded programming IP address restricts your communication with the panels
to a local network connection and you can only use a NETCOM2 Rev. B once per embedded
IP.
NETCOM2 Rev. B Bit Rate Setting
DIP switches S2.2 & S2.3 regulate the NETCOM2 Rev. B’s bit rate setting. The NETCOM2
Rev. B’s bit rate setting must match the bit rate setting of the control boards on the
communication loop. The bit rate on the control board is determined by J16 jumpers or S2
DIP switches. The bit rate is the number of bits processed per second at one of the speeds
listed in the table.
