Setting Up a LIF-200
•Powering the Unit
When powering the LIF, it can be connected using either the modular plug (for an adapter) or the removable
terminal block beside the RS485 port.
•Connection to PC
Connecting the LIF can be done directly to the computer by connecting a ‘Cross Over’ cable to the RJ45 port,
however connection through a hub is possible with a separate cable. Connect your panel to either the 232
or 485 port. The 232 connection is made through the standard DB9 port, with the 485 made through the
removeable terminal block.
⚠Note: Ensure that the configuration and slide switch are set at the same setting.
