1 GETTING STARTED WITH iCOM™
The Liebert® iCOM offers the highest capability for unit control, communication, and monitoring of Liebert® Thermal
Management units. It is available factory installed on new units and assemblies or may be retrofitted in existing units.
NOTE: Your Liebert® DSE™ Packaged Solution does not offer humidification or dehumidification functions. Please
disregard those settings/fields when mentioned in this guide or displayed on the iCOM controller.
1.1 Touchscreen Display and User Interface
The Liebert® iCOM touchscreen and user interface speeds set up and installation and simplifies control of Liebert® thermal-
management units, literally putting cooling-system monitoring and management at your fingertips.
•The resistive touchscreen is used with a firm touch, or consider using a stylus when interacting with the
touchscreen.
•User and service menus are password protected to prevent unauthorized changes to cooling-unit operation.
•The touchscreen is back-lit and auto-dims after a period on non-use, then turns off. Touch the screen to
illuminate the main screen.
•iCOM ships with default settings for efficient and effective operation of most cooling-units and is easily
configured to meet any need.
•iCOM menus and displays are based on the options installed on the cooling units that it monitors and manages.
