Overview1
Summary of Features1.1
• View system status remotely
• Multiple display capabilities
• Speaker for audible notification
• Detailed alarm indication messages
Description1.2
The General LCD Display (GLD) allows the user to monitor an existing network from different locations by
providing
remote visibility of the system’s status. This convenient method of monitoring gives the user the ability to
monitor the network without being physically present at the system site. With detailed alarm indication messages,
the GLD gives peace of mind to network managers who aren’t able to constantly observe the system’s status from
the network’s location.
The GLD can easily “daisy-chain” from unit to unit. This means that up to 3 GLDs can be connected to a single
host, with a maximum range of 1,500 feet between the host and the last GLD unit (the 1,500 foot maximum
applies
to a single GLD as well). The GLD is also easy to install, with connectors for all ports and mounting screws for
easy
attachment to any flat vertical surface.
Along with the convenience of remote visual monitoring, the unit is equipped with a speaker for audible
notification.
The unit will sound when certain conditions occur, keeping the network manager informed of the system’s status
even when the unit is not being watched. Additionally, the Link LED on the face of the GLD indicates
communication
with the host. A red flash indicates receive activity while a green flash shows transmit activity.
With detailed alarm messaging, multiple display capabilities and easy installation, the GLD is a simple solution
to a network manager’s remote monitoring needs.

GLD Connections2.2
1) Mount the GLD in the desired location using the mounting template and the mounting screws provided. Position
the case onto the screws then slide it down to lock into place.
2) Remove the screw-lug barrier plugs from the bottom of the GLD. (See figure 2.2)
3) Connect communication wires from the host to the ‘IN’ terminals of the 4 position barrier plug. (See figure 2.2)
If daisy chaining, connect communication wires from the ‘OUT’ terminal to the ‘IN’ terminal of the next GLD.
The ‘+’ and ‘-’ ports are universal and therefore either side may be used as an “IN” port or an “OUT” port. (See
figure 2.2.1) (Requires small standard screwdriver to work with small connectors)
4) Connect a -48VDC power lead and a GND lead to the corresponding terminals of the 2-position barrier plug.
5) All barrier screws should be seated firmly but not over-tightened so as to nick the bare wire.
6) Push the plugs firmly back into their appropriate location on the bottom of the case.
7) Once the hardware connections are complete, power the unit(s) by applying -48VDC to the power lead.
WARNING
Always observe electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions

2.2.1 Setting the Internal Address (v1.0D or older)
Each unit must have a separate internal address. The address is stored internally and only needs to be set once
prior to use.
To set the internal address:
1). Enter Set Address mode by simultaneously holding down the + and – buttons.
2). Use the up or down arrows to choose the desired address from the Set Address menu.*
e.g.: GLD Addr: 2
+/- to change
3). Press SEL to accept the displayed address. An asterisk (*) will appear next to the address you have accepted.
e.g.: GLD Addr: 2*
MOD to exit
4). Press MOD to exit Set Address mode.

2.2.2 Setting the Internal Address & Baud Rate (v1.0E or newer)
Each unit must have a separate internal address. The address is stored internally and only needs to be set once
prior to use.
To set the internal address:
1). Enter Set Address mode by simultaneously holding down the + and – buttons.
2.) To set address press select.
3). Use the +/- buttons to choose address.
3). Press SEL to accept the displayed address. An asterisk (*) will appear next to the address you have accepted.
e.g.: GLD Addr: 2*
4). Press MOD to exit Set Address mode.
2.2.2.1 Setting Baud Rate
To set the baud rate:
1). Enter Set baud rate mode by simultaneously holding down the + and – buttons.
2.) Press +, you will see "GLD baud".
3). Press SEL, then use the +/- buttons to adjust baud rate.
3). Press SEL to set.
4). Press MOD to exit.
2.2.3 LED Indications
The Link LED indicates communication with the host. A red flash shows receive activity, while a green flash shows
transmit activity.
A slow red blink represents a communication link idle for more than 2 minutes, which is considered a
communication failure. The LCD will show “Link Down.”
2.2.4 Audible Notification
The host may activate the GLD speaker as certain conditions occur. Press the MOD/ACO button to locally
terminate the sound.
2.2.5 LCD Operation
Refer to the host’s manual for specific operation details.
* If using only 1 GLD unit, the address must be set to 1.

Host Connections2.3
The GLD can be connected to the KDA (page 7), the NetGuardian (page 9), the NetGuardian G4 (page 11), the
NetGuardian G5 (page 12), the IAM (page 14) or T/MonXM (page 15).
Note: There are host version requirements to connect the GLD. See the individual host sections in this manual for
specific minimum version requirements.
2.3.1 Multiple GLDs
Up to twelve GLDs can be installed at one site. The units can be connected to a host in a daisy chain
configuration as shown in the figure below or in a star configuration. Whether connecting 1, 2, or 12
GLD units to the host, the maximum connection length is 1,500 feet. The ‘+’ and ‘-’ from the host
channel are connected to the ‘IN’ side of the communication plug on the bottom of the GLD. The ‘OUT’
side of the communication plug is for daisy chaining to other GLDs.*
* The ‘+’ and ‘-’ ports are universal and therefore either side may be used as an “IN” port or an “OUT” port.
