Installation and Configuration

ENGLISH
This chapter explains how to install and configure AC Smart Premium.

Installation

To use AC Smart Premium, build an environment for which AC Smar t Premium can communicate
with devices like the indoor unit, ERV, DI/DO, DOKIT, AWHP, and AHU. Use AC Smart Premium to
register those devices.
AC Smart Premium should be installed in the following order:
STEP 1. Check the installation environment and configure the device
address.
Check the network configuration against the interfaced devices before installing AC Smart Premium and allocate a unique central control address for each connected device.
STEP 2. Connect V-Net devices with AC Smart Premium.
Use an RS485 cable to connect V-Net devices with AC Smart Premium.
STEP 3. Login and register the devices.
Login to AC Smart Premium and register those devices that have their address set.
Caution
The installation of AC Smart Premium must be done by a professional. Be sure to contact a qualified engineer for the installation. If you have a question or request regarding the installation, contact an installation professional at an authorized LG service center or LG Electronics.
