Sierra Wireless AirLink LS300

Description

The target of the Airlink LS300 is the Alarming Module. Its purpose is to Send and Receive SMS

messages. Essentially, it is going to be utilized as an SMS gateway. As an example, Ignition picks up

information from a PLC that the water temperature is too hot. Ignition sends an SMS message via the

AirLink LS300 to contacts assigned to that alarm. It is received by a contact, which is then acknowledged

via SMS by the contact. This SMS message is sent back and received by Ignition via the AirLink.

LS300 and Network Security

The security settings covered here are basic steps to secure the LS300. Inductive Automation is not

responsible for the security of your LS300. You should take the time to configure and test the current

and other security measures as appropriate to your network.

Inductive Automation tested this router as a device that sits inside a network. Therefore, it needs to be

configured to act simply as another device on the network, not as a router or DHCP Server etc. Its sole

purpose is to handle SMS traffic.

Configuration and ACEManager

To access the modem’s configuration information and be able to change it, you will be accessing what is

called the ACEManager. This can be accessed via Ethernet, USB or Serial. This document will only cover

Ethernet access. The recommended browser to use is IE or Firefox. There are problems when using the

Chrome browser.

Setup Steps

The sections below should be followed in the order given to setup the AirLink LS300. Note that any

change that is made usually requires a reboot of the router/modem, which can be done through the

ACEManager. Follow these instructions and reboot at the end.

Default Ethernet Connection

First connect the LS300 directly to your computer and follow the manual’s instructions to connect to it.

Default Ethernet settings for access is the following:

Device IP Address: 192.168.13.31

Port: 9191

Username: user

Password: 12345

It should be as simple as changing your computer’s LAN settings to DHCP. Then connect to it via a

browser with the URL of http://192.168.13.31:9191.
