- SEG-M or SEG-1
- SEG-M is powered by the Max2 or Max3 panel
- SEG-1 requires 12VDC power supply
- Gateway Config Adapter (P/N 207-6000)
- IEI supplied, tan Phone Type Cord.
- Unused Com Port
- For PCs without a built in or free Com Port, a USB to RS-232 convertor can be purchased at most computer retailers. The Radio Shack Model 26-949 has been tested and performs well. Install any drivers required for the USB to RS-232 converter according to manufacturer's instructions.
- For a static IP address, the IP address is assigned by the network administrator.
- If you are using Windows Vista, you will need to download and install a 3rd party terminal emulation program such as PuTTY which is available here http://www.putty.org.
- Plug the Gateway Config Adapter into the Com Port on your PC and take note of the Com Port number that you are connecting the adapter to. A built in Com Port is usually Com Port 1 or 2. If you are using a 3rd party USB to RS-232 adapter, check the Windows Device Manager for the Com Port number.
- Plug the IEI supplied tan, Phone Type Cord into the Gateway Config Adapter.
- Plug the other end of the Phone Type Cord into one of the following locations depending on the model SEG you have:
- SEG-1 RJ-11 connector on the front of the unit labeled RS232 ,
- SEG-M Into the RJ-11C connector on the backplane of the Max2/MiniMax2 or Max3/MiniMax3 panel.
- Connect the SEG-M to the backplane of the Max3 or Max2 panel at the SEG-M Connector (S1) just above the first Door Control Module or:
- Plug the SEG-M into the backplane of the MiniMax2 or MiniMax3 at the (J2) connector near the On/Off switch on the left hand side of the backplane or:
- Connect the 12VDC power supply to the SEG-1 using connector TS-2. Pin 2 is negative, Pin 3 is positive. Plug the power supply into a power strip with an on/off switch.
- Install HubManager Pro if not installed.
If you have HubManager Pro 7, skip to scenario 1
If you have Hubmanager Pro 8, skip to scenario 2
