INTRODUCTION
LightBox is a pole mountable communicaon module. LightBox is
designed to transmit data from fault indicators to the distribuon network
monitoring system KOMORSAN or a SCADA system.
The KOMORSAN system has its own web-interface for easy
management from the dispatcher's workplace and provides the possibility
of noficaon via text message and e-mail. The KOMORSAN system can be
integrated into any SCADA system via the IEC 60870-5-104 protocol.
By using proprietary data transfer protocol and informa on
exchange system opmized for extremely low power consumpon,
LightBox is powered by built-in baery pack and does not require any
external power. LightBox is equipped with addional means of indicaon
of fault occurrence - contrasng reflecve blinkers (flag).
Fault indicators, which are mounted on three phases of overhead
lines, transmit data to LightBox. LightBox provides the real-me
analysis of the informaon derived from all fault indicators.
In case of fault detecon LightBox immediately starts communicaon
session with a server for a fault data transmission and turns blinkers’
yellow side.
The standard configuraon of data transmission is made by
means of a built-in GSM modem through the cellular network.
LightBox is equipped with a built-in Bluetooth standard radio
channel (2.4 GHz). LightBox can communicate with Lodestar fault
indicators and a remote control via a bidireconal wireless connecon.
LightBox configuraon is made via the KOMORSAN WEB-client
soware and a remote control.

SIM CARD INSTALLATION AND BATTERY PACK
CONNECTION
NOTE:
LightBox is delivered with a baery disconnected. Before installaon, insert
a SIM card and connect a baery pack.
NOTE:
●
SIM card must not request a PIN code;
●
It is recommended to use SIM cards of industrial design, intended for use
in telemacs devices (such cards have extended modes of operaon,
including temperature range and increased authorizaon counter);
The GPRS connecon sengs  of the mobile network operator must be
configured in the device in advance. The primary GPRS access sengs  are
recorded in the device by the manufacturer in accordance with the
quesonnaire.
If the access sengs  for the SIM card you are installing are different
from those specified in the quesonnaire, the device needs to be
reconfigured using the KOMORSAN Web-client soware.
In order to change the sengs of LightBox, a SIM card that can
access GPRS with the sengs recorded should be installed in the
device.
NOTE:
A SIM-chip can be installed into LightBox. A SIM-chip can be installed by
the manufacturer only, its self-replacement is not possible.
IMPORTANT:
Either installing or replacing a SIM card, it is recommended to reset
LightBox and check its performance.
