Pairing MicroLogic Active AP/EP Control Unit With Panel Server

The prerequisites to pairing a MicroLogic Active AP/EP control unit with a Panel Server are:

  • The control unit must be a MicroLogic Active AP/EP control unit.

  • The Panel Server must be turned on.

  • The MicroLogic Active AP/EP control unit and Panel Server must be in close proximity.

It is recommended to perform the commissioning of IEEE 802.15.4 wireless devices in a place secure from rogue radio transmitters, such as an administrator room. For more information, refer to DOCA0122•• MasterPacT, ComPacT, PowerPacT - Cybersecurity Guide in Related Documents at the beginning of this guide.

Follow the procedure below to pair a MicroLogic Active AP/EP control unit with a Panel Server:

Step

Action

1

Turn on the Panel Server.

2

Follow the discovery procedure described in EcoStruxure Panel Server - User Guide in Related Documents, at the beginning of this guide.

3

When prompted to do so, connect the MicroLogic Active AP/EP control unit to a IEEE 802.15.4 network.

Do this by selecting Connect on the MicroLogic Active display screen, from the tree navigation menu, at Configuration > Communication > IEEE 802.15.4 > Status.

4

At the end of the discovery procedure, the MasterPacT MTZ circuit breaker with MicroLogic Active AP/EP control unit appears in the list of discovered devices on Panel Server webpages.

NOTE: It is recommended that the MicroLogic Active AP/EP control unit is powered by an external 24 Vdc power supply, to avoid communication loss if the load falls below 20% of the rated current In.

IEEE 802.15.4 Wireless Communication Test

After discovery of the MasterPacT MTZ circuit breaker with MicroLogic Active AP/EP control unit, you can check IEEE 802.15.4 wireless communication and microswitch installation.

Step

Action

1

Select the Monitoring & Control menu on Panel Server webpages.

2

Select the MasterPacT MTZ circuit breaker with MicroLogic Active AP/EP control unit to test, from the list of paired devices.

3

Check the circuit breaker status.

4

If the circuit breaker status (open or closed), displayed on Panel Server webpages does not match the actual status of the circuit breaker, contact your Schneider Electric Services representative.
