Connection Information
Ethernet
Configuring the HomeWorks® QS processor to communicate over a network takes not only
knowledge of the HomeWorks® QS system, but of networking as well. Installers with limited
networking knowledge are advised to contact a networking professional before attempting to
connect a HomeWorks® QS processor through a network.
The installer will make any necessary configuration changes to the HomeWorks® QS processor
using the HomeWorks® QS Design Software Application and the network professional can make
any necessary changes to the networking equipment.
Dual Ethernet Port
• IEEE® 802.3 Auto-Sensing 10BaseT / 100BaseTX
• Supports MDI/MDIX auto-crossover (no crossover cable needed).
• Female 8P8C “Computer RJ-45” socket
• Green “Connect” LED, Amber “Activity” LED
• Use Cat 5 cabling or better
• 2 Port 10/100 Ethernet Switch
TCP / IP Settings
• IP Address: Address at which the processor can be reached for integration. In most instances
when integrating to a processor, DHCP should be disabled and a static IP address should be
assigned to prevent the processor from changing IP addresses.
• Subnet Mask: In conjunction with the IP address, it defines the subnet on which the processor
communicates. Processors will be able to integrate only with devices on the same subnet.
• Gateway: Used in instances where the processor needs to communicate to the internet. Should be
set to the IP address of the device on the network connected directly to the internet—typically, the
home router.
Protocols Used for Integration
• TELNET
Telnet Server
• Used by third party equipment (e.g., touch screen)
• Used by Lutron® mobile devices (e.g., iPad and iPhone)
• Limited to transferring ASCII characters
• Telnet Port number is 23
• Logins: Defined in the HomeWorks® QS software application
RS232
The HomeWorks® QS Processor does not have native support for RS232. An Ethernet to RS232
adapter can be used and configured to provide RS232 integration directly from the Processor if
needed.
