4.7 Placing device in operation
1. Switch on the supply voltage:
When the device is supplied with power, all LEDs initially illuminate briefly. During the start
process the "ON" LED flashes. After a successful start, the "ON" LED then illuminates continu-
ously. The device is now ready for operation.
2. Start web user interface:
– Open a web browser.
– Type the following IP address to open the web interface for the gateway:
–> If your PC is in a 192.168.0.0 IT subnet, you can connect to the gateway using the IP
address set in the factory, 192.168.0.254.
–> If your PC is in different subnet, you must disconnect the PC from your network.
Connect the gateway directly to your PC. You can open the web user interface using
the second pre-defined IP address: 169.254.0.1.
For this purpose, DHCP must be enabled on the PC.
You can configure the IP address for the gateway as required in the web user interface.
3. Configure:
As a minimum configure all the address data for the gateway. Always configure the BCOM
interface (system name, subsystem, device address). The BCOM device address is, at the same
time, the address on the internal BMS bus.
4. Integrate devices into the system:
– BMS devices are detected automatically
– BCOM devices are detected automatically
– Modbus devices need to be configured. Start the alternative Web user interface (with Silver-
light).
Then select "Tools" > "Modbus" > "Manage devices".
5. Check connection
Connect the gateway to your PC network again. Start the web user interface. You can now
make all other settings (specific texts, e-mail notifications etc.).
Risk of duplicate addresses if BCOM system name is not changed.
The factory setting for the system name on all Bender BCOM devices is "SYSTEM".
If several systems are established in the same network, there is a risk that ad-
dresses will be assigned more than once.
? Therefore always assign a new BCOM system name.
