 Default Settings
The LaMarche Communications Card is shipped with the following default settings:

Ethernet/TCP/Configuration Port Settings

Protocol: IEC61850
IP Address: 192.168.0.6
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.1

Required Equipment/Software
PC/Laptop.

CAT 5/Ethernet Null-Modem/Crossover cable to connect PC/Laptop to Ethernet Port on Communications Card.

To change settings it is necessary to load and install the EasyConnect Software provided by Kalki
Communications from the following URL onto your PC/Laptop:

http://www.web.lamarchemfg.com/files/ftp/EasyConnect_V4.6.0_Setup/

Setting changes are made through the Ethernet connector on the 383S card.

EasyConnect Software Operation

EasyConnect is the software that will be used to accomplish the following setting changes.

TCPIP Setting (IP, Subnet, Gateway)

Setting the Modbus Address of the Chargers Control Card

The 383S communications board utilizes Modbus RTU to read and write settings from the Chargers 368S control
board. The settings are polled every 5 seconds. By default they are set as follows:

Modbus Address: 1
Modbus Baud Rate: 9600
Modbus Parity Type: None
Modbus Port Type: RS232

These settings are required for the two cards to communicate properly. If for some reason the Communications
Card is unable to obtain readings from the Control Card it is suggested to review the Modbus settings to confirm
they match the above. The Modbus Settings may be accessed from the Settings Menu.

2
 Changing the IP, Subnet & Gateway Settings

Step 1: Select IP Configuration from the Settings menu as shown below.

3
Step 2: In the Lan Settings dialog shown below you enter the present IP address in the box just below the
SYNCS2R1OEM drop down box. In this case the card is at IP 192.168.0.6. In the IP Address, Subnet and
Gateway under the eth0 label you enter the settings you would like the card to take on. In this case the
module is presently at 192.168.0.6 and will be changed to an IP of 192.168.0.121 with a Subnet of
255.255.255.0 and a Gateway of 192.168.0.1. Press the OK button when you are done making changes.

Step 3: The card is now at the new IP settings. Press the OK button and the board will be restarted
automatically and will now be at the new settings. Note: If you have changed them to a different subnet you
will have to modify your network adapter card settings to reconnect to the card.
