The standard LANServer package includes a “home” screen, a graphical “zone” screen, a
tabular “zone” screen, an alarms screen, an event log screen and the Sentry display
screen. The Alarms page contains all active alarms and notes whether or not they have
been acknowledged. The Event Log page notes all events (alarms and change of states)
that have occurred over a recent period of time.
1.4. Sentry Firmware Version
The LANServer is designed to work with Sentry controllers containing Sentry Firmware of
version 6.10bF or newer. If the Sentry controller in question has an older firmware version
please contact Sierra Monitor or a local SMC representative to obtain the necessary
upgrade.
1.5. Connections
The standard Sentry LANServer Model 5391-01 includes the FieldServer Technologies
LANServer plus the necessary cables and connectors to interface the LANServer to the
Sentry controller and to the Ethernet. In a typical application the LANServer will be mounted
in a NEMA 4X enclosure with the Sentry controller (Figure 1.1). If ordered with a Sentry
NEMA 4X package the LANServer will already be installed in the enclosure with the serial
connection from the LANServer to the Sentry controller(s). The LANServer will also be
connected to an RJ45 connection mounted on the outside of the enclosure to which the user
can connect to the LANServer via the web, WAN or Internet.

In applications where only one Sentry controller is involved (1 to 8 sensors) the LANServer
will connect to the Sentry controller via RS-232 and to the PC with the LAN browser via a
crossover Cat5 cable (or via a hub with a standard cat5 cable). (Figure 1.2)
