INSTALLING THE BWBC2 – QUICK START
WEB VERSION
The BWBC2 (like the BWBC4) is an IP based controller and does need to be connected to a Local Area Network
(LAN). The BWBC2 is shipped from the factory in DHCP mode and should be able to obtain an IP address as long
as there is a DHCP server available on the network.
NOTE: BWBC2 programming and functionality require Project Editor Software version 1.9 or Higher.
1) Add the BWBC2 controller to a new or existing project.
a. Connect the BWBC2 to your LAN via the Ethernet Port and power from the included power adapter.
i. During start-up the Red Status LED on the front of the unit will blink in a “Heartbeat” pattern until all
processes are loaded and running. (This takes about 45 seconds.)
b. Start Project Editor Software and open an existing project or create a new one. Right-click on the BWBC2’s
node of the Project and select “Add Controller from Network”. In the resulting Controller Discovery Window,
select the IP address for the BWBC2 and select “Add to Project”.
2) Modify properties for the newly added BWBC2 via right-click on the BC2:BWCBC2 node in the project.
a. Network Settings
i. Give the BWBC2 a meaningful name for the project. Perhaps the client’s name or the location.
ii. Uncheck the “Use DHCP” checkbox
iii. Assign a valid static IP address to the BWBC2
iv. Click “Apply Settings to BWBC2”
b. Time
i. Choose the Appropriate Time Zone for the install from the drop down menu.
ii. Make sure the current Time and Date from your PC are shown in the two lines below the drop down and
click the “Set” button to set the BWBC2 time and date.

3) Location Settings – The BWBC2 has a built-in scheduler that will also allow events to be triggered based on a
specific time, sunrise or sunset. In order for the sunrise and sunset calculations to work properly, it is necessary
to set the Location in the Project node.
a. Right-Click on the Project Node and select “Location”
b. Type the name of your city or town and click search to find your Lat/Long and click “OK”.
4) Email Settings – The BWBC2 can also send email notifications to recipients based on events or macros.
a. Right-Click on the Project Node and select “Email Settings”
b. Fill out the fields using the proper email server settings. For a list of common SMTP email server settings go
to http://www.emailaddressmanager.com/tips/mail-settings.html
c. Add recipients to the project and Send a test to yourself to verify email server settings.
CONGRATULATIONS!
You now have a BWBC2 configured on the network and ready to program. For more details on programming for
devices, macros and GUI interfaces, please view our training video series available in the Support Center.
