Setting Up the 289 LAN Controller Card
with the 289H LSS and PressureMAP
This document explains how to set up the LAN Controller Card for communication
between a System Studies 289H LSSTM monitor and PressureMAPTM server con-
nected to a network. The 289H LAN Controller setup process requires the following:
n289H LAN Controller Card (P/N 9010-0030), equipped with Firmware
EPROM Rev. F02 (P/N 9030-0050) or higher
nWindows computer with a DB-9 serial connection and HyperTerminal
nStandard DB-9 straight-through serial cable (P/N 9800-6002)
nCat. 5 Ethernet cable
nThis setup guide
To configure the LAN Controller, you will need a computer running Windows 95 (or
greater) with HyperTerminal. You will also need to obtain a local IP address, Port
Number, Gateway address and Subnet address information for the 289H LAN Con-
troller from your network administrator. For your reference during the procedures
that follow, record the information in the spaces below. (In Appendix A is a work-
sheet for sharing information between the network administrator and the air pressure
technician who is installing the 289H with LAN Controller card.)
The LAN Controller uses 10 Mbps Ethernet. The network hub or Ethernet adapter to
which the LAN Controller is connected must be either a 10 Mbps unit or a 10/100
unit that can adapt to either 10 or 100 Mbps.

If you are converting an existing 289H monitor for network communication, you will
need to replace the Controller Card with a LAN Controller Card.
Procedure
Replacing the
Controller Card
1. Turn off the 289H LSS using the main power switch at the front of the Util-
ity Card (see Figure 1, lower left corner). This card is typically located in the
slot labeled AUX 1 or AUX 2.
2. Unplug the Modem RJ-11 Connector on the back of the Controller Card.
This card is in the slot labeled CTLR.
Note: Make sure that you are grounded before removing the circuit boards
or any of the chips. If available, put on an anti-static wrist strap and clip the
strap wire to a piece of metal grounded to the frame. If you do not have ac-
cess to an anti-static strap, touch the grounded metal 289H LSS chassis be-
fore proceeding.
3. Push the card ejectors to the open position (straight out, away from card) and
remove the Controller Card.
4. Slide the LAN Controller card into the first slot of the chassis (labeled
CTRL), using the 289H's top and bottom guide rails. Make sure it is seated
properly in the backplane. Close the card ejectors.
Note: Do not power the 289H back on.
Network Hardware
Connections
Make sure that the 289H LSS is powered off before connecting the network cable to
the LAN. Connect the network cable from the local network hub to LAN module’s
RJ-45 (J2) jack on the LAN Controller Card.

These instructions describe the process for programming an IP address into the LAN
Controller Card (P/N 9010-0030). The information for Local IP Address,
Port Number,Gateway Address, and Subnet Mask should be obtained
from your Network Administrator.
1. Make sure that the 289H LSS monitor is powered off. If the unit is on, turn
off the power switch SW1 at the front of the Utility Card.
2. Identify the S3 dipswitch set module that controls communication mode, lo-
cated in the lower left corner of the LAN Controller Card (see Figure 2).
Switch 1 is the upper switch (away from bottom edge of card), and Switch 2
is the lower switch (closer to bottom edge of card).
Set the two dipswitches to Configure Mode (Figure 3):
1 = up (OFF), away from card surface
2 = down (ON), toward card surface

complete.
Note: Use only ONE connector. Do not change the LAN connection while the
289H is powered on.
PressureMAP Data
Entry Requirements
Whether this setup is part of an upgrade to a 289H LSS or a new install, the
PressureMAP Office Information screen needs to be modified or created with the cor-
rect IP address information for this LAN Controller in the Phone Number data
field. Both the Baudrate and MAP Alert Baudrate data fields should be set
to 9600, and if desired, the correct MAP Alert # information entered in order to
enable the 289H to call PressureMAP with Alerts. (Please refer to the sample Office
Information screen below.) For more detailed information regarding these settings,
please refer to Section 2 of the MAP Data Entry manual.
When this data entry procedure is done, a PressureMAP host should be able to com-
municate with the 289H LSS. Communication can be verified by performing a Real-
time Reading via CPAMS Diagnostics, described in Section 8 of the MAP System
Operations manual.

Troubleshooting
When attempting to connect from PressureMAP to a 289H office equipped with the
LAN Controller Card, verify that the necessary communication data has been entered
for the office as outlined in the preceding section. See the MAP System Data Entry
manual for detailed instructions on configuring office data.
Once you have verified that the necessary communication data has been entered,
check the following:
nDip switches are set correctly. For the Server Mode (communications with
PressureMAP), both switches must be in the down position (pointing to the
surface of the card).
nCommunication parameters are set correctly.
nPower the 289H off and back on, using the power switch on the Utility Card.
nPower is available (the Power On LED lights up on the Utility Card).
nNetwork cable from local network hub is connected to the LAN RCM Mod-
ule’s RJ-45 jack (J2) on the LAN Controller card.
The most common problems in running the configuration program pertain to using an
incorrect serial cable or the Windows HyperTerminal program not operating cor-
rectly.
Checking the
Hardware
Before testing any equipment settings, check that the RJ-45 network cable is con-
nected correctly. Do not change the LAN network connection while the 289H
monitor is powered on.

Verify that the network cable between the LAN Controller Card and the hub is in
good condition.
Verifying Settings
via HyperTerminal
Use the setup procedure described previously in "Configuring the LAN Controller”
to check the LAN Controller’s IP settings for incorrect values. Make corrections, if
necessary. For example, if a LAN Controller Card has been moved from one office to
another, the IP address information will need to be reconfigured for the new office.
Note: When examining the IP settings, you need to be on site with the 289H monitor
so that you can set the LAN Controller Card dipswitches to the Configure Mode
(Figure 3) before re-entering the desired information. You will also need to make the
serial connection between the LAN Controller and a PC that has the HyperTerminal
program (see Step 3 of the procedures for Configuring the LAN Controller). Once
the IP settings have been verified and/or changed, remember to reset the LAN Con-
troller Card dipswitches to the Server Mode (Figure 4).
When reconfiguring the IP settings, verify your network cable connection as de-
scribed previously in “Network Hardware Connections.”
If you have any questions regarding this procedure, please call System Studies
Technical Support at [phone] or [phone]. You may also e-mail your
questions to [e-mail].
Appendix A –
Network Information for LAN Controller Operation
The LAN Controller Card uses 10 Mbps Ethernet. The network hub or Ethernet
adapter to which the LAN Controller is connected must be either a 10 Mbps unit or a
10/100 unit that can adapt to either 10 or 100 Mbps.
The LAN Controller normally works in “server” or listen mode. In server mode, a
289H with a LAN Controller Card receives calls from PressureMAP. When the 289H
sends an alert to the PMAP system, the LAN Controller switches to “client” or call
mode. During alerting, the PMAP system becomes the “server.”
For the LAN Controller to work properly on a telephone company network, all net-
work firewalls must be configured to allow PMAP calls to the 289H with the LAN
Controller Card. For alerting to work properly, network firewalls must also be con-
figured to allow the 289H with the LAN Controller Card to call the PMAP system.
To help the network administrator configure the network to allow two-way commu-
nications between the LAN Controller and PressureMAP, please fill out the follow-
ing two-part worksheet and give it to the network administrator.
