AMAX 2000/2100/3000/4000 . A-Link configuration. The B426 Conettix Ethernet Communication Module is compatible with IPv6. For ULC-S559, the B426 can be used for either active or passive communication. For passive communication, maximum check in is 24 hours. For active communication, maximum check in (heartbeat) is 89 seconds.
The B426 address switch provides the value for the module's address. The figure below shows the address switch setting for address 1. Refer to the following table for panel-specific settings.
B426 module overview, page 8. Wire to the control panel When you wire a B426 to an SDI or SDI2 control panel, you can use either the module's terminal strip labeled R, Y, G, B (PWR, A, B, COM) or the module's interconnect wiring connectors (wire included).

Use an SDI/SDI2 keypad to discover the IP address of a module, page 35. (B9512G/ B8512G, B6512/B5512/B4512/B3512, and GV4 only.) – Use Auto IP with a directly connected module, page 36. Within 60 seconds, the B426 temporarily assumes address 169.254.1.1 for configuration. Notice! Outside access requires obtaining the public IP address and port mapping from the gateway.
Remove power from the module. Disconnect the module from the network. Connect the B426 directly to the Ethernet port on a computer, power up, and wait 60 sec. If AutoIP service is enabled on your computer, a 169.254.XXX.XXX address should now be assigned to your computer.
