Factory-shipped state

The factory- shipped state of JACE-3,-6,-7 series controllers has the following default settings for IP address, HTTP port and Platform credentials.

IP address

When shipped, new JACE-3,-6,-7 series controllers are pre-configured with an IPv4 address in the range:

192.168.1.12n    (primary LAN1 port; the LAN2 port is disabled).

where the last numeral (n) in the IP address matches the last numeral in the controller’s serial number.

The default subnet mask is:   255.255.255.0

You change these IPv4 network settings during your startup commissioning of the controller.

HTTP port for platform access

When shipped, a controller’s platform daemon is configured to listen on HTTP port 3011. Often, this is left at the default. However, if a different port is needed for a platform connection (perhaps for firewall reasons), you can change this during the commissioning of the controller.

Platform daemon credentials

Every controller is shipped with default platform daemon (administrator) credentials.

For example:  Username: building Password: controls

 
NOTE: Unlike earlier releases, the Niagara 4 Commissioning Wizard does not allow you to commission and startup a controller while retaining the factory platform user.
 

Initially, you use default credentials to open (log on) to a platform connection to a controller. Like the factory-assigned IP address, default credentials are temporary. During your startup commissioning, you must replace this platform admin account with at least one different platform admin user. Be sure to guard the credentials for such platform users closely.
