Figure 3 - Metal and Plastic Box Installation
To connect and install the IP150+:
1) Connect the 4-pin serial cable between the panel’s serial connector and the IP150+’s panel
connector.
2) Connect the Ethernet cable between the router and the IP150+’s network connector.
3) The on-board LEDs will illuminate to indicate the IP150+’s status.
4) Clip the IP150+ to the top of the metal box or plastic box, as shown in Figure 3.
LED Indicators
Reset IP150+ to Default Settings
To reset the IP150+ module to its default settings, ensure that the module is turned on and then insert a
pin/straightened paper clip (or similar) into the pinhole located between the two I/O LEDs. Press down
gently until you feel some resistance; hold it down for approximately five seconds. When the I/O and RX/
TX LEDs start flashing, release it and then press it again (figure 2). The I/O and RX/TX LEDs will remain lit
during the reset.
Note: If a panel has been replaced, the IP150+ will retain its settings and not reset to factory default
values.
Enable/Disable DHCP Settings
Before you can enable/disable the DHCP settings you must first verify the status of your DHCP. Ensure
that the module is turned on and then insert a pin/straightened paper clip (or similar) into the pinhole
located between the two I/O LEDs. Press and depress quickly the reset switch. One blink of the Internet
LED followed by one blink of the LINK LED indicates that DHCP is ON (default). One blink of the Link LED
followed by one blink of the Internet LED indicates that DHCP is OFF.
To enable/disable the DHCP settings, press and depress the reset switch quickly and then immediately
hold it down for approximately two seconds. If DHCP is enabled, then the Internet LED will blink once to
indicate that DHCP settings are disabled. To enable DHCP repeat the procedure. The link LED will blink
once to indicate that DHCP settings are enabled.
Firmware Version Fallback
To revert the IP150+ module to its previously installed firmware version, unplug the power cable from the
panel and insert a pin/straightened paper clip (or similar object) into the pinhole located between the two
I/O LEDs. Press down gently until you feel some resistance; plug in the power cable while holding the pin
down for approximately five seconds and release it when the I/O 2 LED starts flashing (figure 2). The I/O
LED will turn solid and start blinking (resetting to the backup version). Once complete, the IP150+ will
reboot automatically to the previously installed firmware version.
IP Reporting
When using IP reporting, the IP150+ has the ability to poll the monitoring station. To enable IP reporting,
the IP150+ must first be registered to the monitoring station’s IP Receiver (IPR512) or to the IPRS-7
software. Telephone reporting can be used in conjunction with, or as a backup to IP reporting. Before
registering the IP150+, the following information must be obtained from the monitoring station:
• Account number(s) - One account number for each partition used. IP/GPRS reporting uses a different
set of account numbers than those used for dialer reporting.
• IP address(es) - (12-digit number e.g., for 195.4.8.250 you must enter 195.004.008.250). The IP
address(es) indicate(s) which of the monitoring station’s IP Receivers will be used for IP reporting.
• IP port(s) (5-digit number; for 4-digit numbers, enter 0 before the first digit). The IP port refers to the
port used by the monitoring station’s IP Receiver.
• Receiver password(s) (up to 32-digits). The receiver password is used to encrypt the IP150+
registration process.
• Security profile(s) (2-digit number). The security profile indicates how frequently the monitoring station
is polled by the IP150+. Security profile numbers and polling frequency are defined by the monitoring
station.
Setting Up IP Reporting
1) Ensure the panel’s report code format is set to Ademco Contact ID:
MG/SP: section [810]
EVO: section [3070]
2) Enter the IP reporting account numbers (one for each partition):
MG/SP: section [918] / [919]
EVO: section [2976] to [2983]
Please make sure that reporting codes are programmed in the panel, refer to the corresponding
Programming Guide for more details.
In the General IP Options section, set up IP line monitoring options and dialer options, and ensure IP
reporting is enabled (refer to the following tables).
MG/SP: section [806]
EVO: section [2975]
4) Enter the monitoring station’s IP address(es), IP port(s), receiver password(s), and security profile(s)
(information must be obtained from the monitoring station).
NOTE: For Contact ID reporting, all report codes should be set to FF in order tor receive all events.
5) Register the IP150+ module with the monitoring station. To register, enter the sections below and
press [ARM]. The registration status is displayed as well as any registration errors.
NOTE: An IP150+ used with an MG/SP system will always poll using the partition 1 IP account
number. When using an EVO system, the partition 1 IP account is used by default, but can be defined
in section [3020]. All reported system events will originate from the partition selected in this section.

Remote Access (SWAN)
When using the IP150+ with SWAN, the SWAN connection is seamless. Please make sure that the ISP or
router/firewall is not blocking the following ports that needs to be permanently open (whitelisted) for TCP
and UDP:
1) Port 10000 - Configurable SW port on IP150+ from Insite GOLD Installer Menu, used for NEware
closed network, Locate IP in the network and firmware upgrading.
2) Ports 53, 443, 3478 and 5683 - used to communicate with the SWAN Server.
Remote Access (Static Public IP Mode Only)
In order to configure your system for remote access you will need access to your router. The following
steps will guide you in setting up remote access so that the IP150+ module can function properly.
1) Ensure the router is connected properly as indicated in the router’s instructions.
2) Access your router’s configuration page. Refer to your router’s manual for the exact procedure. In
most cases, this is done by entering the router’s static IP address in the address bar of your Web
browser. For this instance, we will use 192.168.1.1 as an example for the router’s IP address that may
be indicated in the router’s instructions or on a sticker on the router.
3) In the router’s configuration page, check the DHCP settings (screen shot below may differ depending
on type of router used).
Figure 4 - DHCP Settings
If DHCP is enabled, verify that the IP address range leaves at least one IP address available outside of
the range. The range shown in the above example would leave addresses 2 to 4 and 101 to 254 available
(all the numbers in an IP address are between 1 and 254). Record one of the addresses outside the
DHCP range as the one you will use for the IP150+. If DHCP is disabled, the IP150+ will use a random IP
address. It is possible to change that address if needed using the Insite GOLD app.
4) In the router’s configuration page, go to the Port Range Forwarding section (also known as “port
mapping” or “port redirection”). If the module is used in a closed network and it does not need external
accessing, no ports needs to be forwarded. If the module needs to be accessed from a different
network, the software port (default 10000) needs to be forwarded.
Figure 5 - Port Range Forwarding
