LMC100A Installation –WC1000 3
■System Configuration with WC1000 Touch Panel
■WC1000 Network Configuration
①It is the way to form the network when using WC1000 Touch Panel(Or PC Integrated
Control Program). Input IP address of LMC100Awhich is received the order in the
corresponding button of WC1000 in order to send the specific button's instruction to
LMC100Ain the WC1000. (Refer to the WC1000 User Manual how to input)
②The instruction sent to WC1000 is delivered to LMC100Athru Wi-Fi network.
The instruction in LMC100Achanges LAN to RF signal and send it to the RF controller
like IRE200Aor RLE400A.
③We call the LMC100A a 'Server' which can be used LAN to RF. You need to register the
unique local IP in each LMC100Awhen used a server. (Refer to the page 7 for registering)
④To use LMC100A, the location where it is to be installed needs to consist of one network.
In other words, total system needs to be interconnected using one IP Router.
⑤As there are four LAN ports in one basic IP Router, one Router can control 4 multi-zones.
To control more than 4 multi-zones, LAN ports need to be increased using switch herb.
⑥As many LMC100A can be installed as number of IP. As IP Router basically supports
about 200 IPs, LMC 100Acan control about same number of IPs with networks.

■LAN Cable
Arrangement Sequence
of Direct LAN cable
①LAN cable is manufactured to the length of a location
where it is installed using RJ-45 jack and 4 pairs of
UTP cable.
②LAN cable uses direct cable.
①It is the way to send the RF signal of touch panel like UX3500 or ITRC8500DX as far as
possible.
②We call the LMC100Aa 'Client' which can change RF signal to LAN. 'Client' and 'Server'
communicate one to one. When inputting the local IP of 'Server' in the 'Client', the
instruction can be sent to 'Server'. (Refer to the page 8 of "How to set IP")
③You need to set up RF touch panel, LMC100Afor 'Client' and RF controller the same
channel. The channel setup switch for LMC100Ais located at the bottom of it.
Note 1. No need to set up the channel for LMC100A for using a 'Server'.
2. Refer to the corresponding manual for setting up of touch panel and RF controller.
④To use LMC100A, the location where it is to be installed needs to consist of one network.
In other words, total system needs to be interconnected using one IP Router.

■LMC100A -IP
IP of LMC100A means an internet address of LMC100A. As instructions are delivered to
given IP address via network, each LMC100A needs to have an unique IP. We call this
unique IP for 'Local IP'. Also you need to input Gateway and Subnet address accurately
like Local IP. Please note that this is a concept different from RF CH setting at bottom
part of the product.
