Electrical Connections
Hardware Installation
Step 1 - Unpack materials: Remove all materials from shipping box and verify all required components are available
Step 2 - Mount the EMB HubLite on the wall, panel or other appropriate location.
Step 3 –Attach pulse output devices to the pulse inputs on the A7810. For dry-contact
WARNING: After wiring the A7810, remove all scraps of wire or foil shield from the electrical panel. This
could be dangerous if wire scraps come into contact with high voltage wires.
Step 4 - Power-up and diagnostics: A power supply is not provided with the EMB HubLite EMB, therefore it is up to the
installer to provide the required 24VDC. After power is applied, the green “Alive” light in the upper right of the EMB
HubLite should come on and the LCD display will display a series of diagnostic screens ending with the following message
on the LCD display (this boot sequence may require up to 20 seconds to complete):
EMB HubLite Ready

Page 7 A7810 EMB HubLite –Data Acquisition HubLite
192.168.40.50
This indicates that the EMB HubLite has loaded properly and is ready for configuration and connection to the network and
sensors. If the “Alive” light does not come on or the LCD display does not cycle to the above screen, verify that the power
wires and connector are secure, and are providing required power as specified. If after cycling the power, the unit still does
not power up (or if an error message appears in the LCD display) contact technical support. After the A7810 has been
powered up for a minute, the green Alive LED should blink slowly once per second during normal operation.
Alive: blinks once per second while the system is operating correctly.
Alarm: blinks to indicate a problem.
Ethernet Link/Act: On when connected to a hub or switch, off when not connected. Blinks when LAN
traffic is being sent or received.
RS485 RX/TX. The 485TX LED should blink slowly once per second during normal operation. The RX
LED will blink when external Modbus devices communicate with the EMB HubLite.
Step 5–Verify the pulse input LED next to each pulse input terminal blinks in conjunction with the power meter that is
attached to the input. The LED will turn on when the contact terminals are closed, or bridged together.
Basic Network Configuration
Step 1 - Determine the IP addressing needs: The IP address of the EMB HubLite™ HUBLite can be implemented using one
of three methods. Check with the network administrator to determine which method applies. For phone installations, use
"direct connection to laptop" to allow initial configuration.
Static IP address - this is a fixed IP address which is assigned by a network administrator and configured into the
EMB HubLite; or
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) address - this process assigns an IP address dynamically to the
EMB HubLite when it is connected to the network from a host DHCP HUBLite; or
Direct connection between the EMB HubLite and a single temporary computer such as a laptop. (primary
connection will be dialin or dialout by modem)
You will need the following information from your network administrator: The addresses will be in the form of
“###.###.###.###”), where “#” refers to the numbers 0 to 9.
Static IPAddress
DHCP
Direct Connection to Laptop
IP address: ___.___.___.___
Netmask: ___.___.___.___
Gateway: ___.___.___.___
DNS HUBLite: ___.___.___.___
DNS HUBLite: ___.___.___.___
HTTP Proxy _____________
proxy HUBLite port: ______
IP address: (dhcp assigned)
Netmask: (dhcp assigned)
Gateway: (dhcp assigned)
DNS HUBLite: (dhcp assigned)
HTTP Proxy _____________
proxy HUBLite port: ______
IPAddress: 192.168.40.50
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Gatway: 192.168.40.1
DNS: 70.99.203.62
HTTP Proxy: [blank]
(factory default settings)
Network Address Worksheet
Step 2 - Configure the IP address as selected from the table above. For Direct Connection to Laptop, the address settings
above are set as the factory default, and you may be able to skip to the "Laptop/Computer Setup" section if the factory
default settings are present.
To begin configuration, make sure that the HUBLite displays the start screen:
EMB HubLite Ready
192.168.40.50
If this screen does not appear on the LCD display, press and hold the Menu button on the HUBLite for several seconds and
the message should appear. To change the IP address to the static address assigned by the network administrator, do the
following:
A. Press the Menu button once to get the TCP/IP configuration menu
www.GlobalTestSupply.com
Find Quality Products Online at: [e-mail]

Page 8 A7810 EMB HubLite –Data Acquisition HubLite
[Main Menu]
TCP/IP Config
B. Press the Select button once to select the TCP/IP Config menu options, first of which is DHCP:
[TCP/IP Config]
DHCP on/off
C. Press the Menu button once to see the TCP/IP IPAddress menu:
[TCP/IP Config]
IP Address
D. Press the Select button again to select the IPAddress menu:
[IP Address]
192.168.40.50
E. At this point, the cursor on the display will be blinking on the first number in the IP address on the second
line.
F. To change the number, press the Menu button and the display will cycle through the digits 0-9 as well as
“.”. Once the correct digit is displayed, press the Select button to advance to the next digit and repeat the
process until all the digits are correct.
G. Once the IP address on the EMB HubLite matches the assigned IP address, press the Select button once
more to return to the main TCP/IP menu.
Step 3 - Set the Netmask, Gateway, and DNS HUBLite(s) addresses as noted in the chart "Network Address Worksheet"
using the same technique as shown above. The only change is that after Step B, press the Menu button multiple times to see
the Netmask, Gateway, and DNS setup menus, then push the Select button to set the options.
Note: If DHCP configuration is selected, the IP, Netmask, Gateway, and DNS HUBLite addresses will be obtained
automatically. Simply select the “Enable DHCP” from the first TCP/IP configuration menu.
Step 4 - After the address information has been set, you must reboot the EMB HubLite. Select the "(Previous Menu)" option
after step B above. The menu will then state that the EMB HubLite must be rebooted to take effect. Press the Select button
to allow the EMB HubLite to reboot.
Once the EMB HubLite has rebooted, the new IP address will be displayed on the console. If DHCP addressing was
specified, the HUBLite assigned address will be displayed.
Note: if DHCP is unable to obtain an IP address, the EMB HubLite will use the fallback address of 192.168.0.100.
Laptop/Computer Setup
Step 1 - You must have a computer to access and configure the EMB HubLite. This computer must have an Ethernet
connection (on the LAN or by direct connection) and must have a web browser installed such as Internet Explorer or
Firefox.
Note: If your building already has an existing LAN to which the EMB HubLite is attached, you can use an existing
computer on that LAN. Check with your network administrator for details. If this option is available, use a LAN-connected
computer and skip to the “EMB HubLite administration overview” section below.

Page 9 A7810 EMB HubLite –Data Acquisition HubLite
The remainder of this section will assume the installer has brought a laptop to the site, and will connect the laptop to the
building LAN, or directly to the EMB HubLite. Attach the laptop to the EMB HubLite or LAN as shown in figure 6,
Ethernet hookup.
Step 2 - Attach the Laptop to the EMB HubLite or to the LAN. The A7810 will automatically detect whether a direct or
crossover cable is required, and will reverse polarity accordingly. This feature will allow you to use either a straight
Ethernet cable or a crossover Ethernet cable interchangeably.
If the Laptop is to be attached to an existing LAN, obtain a static IP address (or use DHCP addressing) from the network
administrator.

E. Click the 'Save' button at the bottom of the page to save your changes.
F. Repeat these steps for each Modbus device.
Step 7 - Select the Modbus/Setup menu option. Specify the Modbus Loop Name. This will become the name of the EMB
HubLite. This is the name that will appear on the BMO website service (if subscribed). Specify the data logging period. The
default is 15 minutes.
Step 8 –Decide upon a method of data transfer. (see section later in this document) . If you select the HTTP/Post method to
send data to the BMO website, you can configure this by selecting the “LogFileData, Setup/Upload” page.
A. Make note of the EMB HubLite serial number.
B. Select upload options as needed for time of day to upload the data and retry control.
C. Check the checkbox to allow remote configuration. This will allow you to reconfigure the EMB HubLite from the
BMO web site without having to connect directly to the EMB HubLite.
D. Specify the "Target address to upload data." This is the website address where the EMB HubLite will send the
collected data. If you have an in-house data collection service, you should enter the address of your data HUBLite
in this field. Leviton also provides a service called Building Manager Online that can collect and report data for
you. If you are using the BMO service, the target address to upload data should be set to
http://www.buildingmanageronline.com/upload.php
E. When configuring the EMB HubLite to send data to the BMO site or your own data collection HUBLite, the EMB
HubLite will authenticate itself with the HUBLite by using the serial number and a password. This password must
be supplied here, and can be obtained when you subscribe for the BMO service, or by your database administrator.
F. Click "Apply" to save your changes.
If you select a manual transfer method, remove (blank out) the target address in the Modbus/Upload Data page.
