5.5 Using the Configuration Tool
The Configuration tool allows users to set up breakers and view or change their parameters and
alarm setpoints.
5.5.1 Starting the Configuration Program
Before starting the Configuration tool, make sure you have the most recent version of the software
and decide whether you want to connect to the Liebert LDM or work in offline mode.
Offline mode allows you to run the configuration tool without being connected to the equipment.
(Prior to Version 25—LDM-Config-25—a service terminal connection was required to configure or
monitor the Liebert LDM.)
Proceed to 5.5.2 - Main Configuration Window Overview to begin configuration.
When a local connection to the Liebert LDM can be performed, load the configuration using the
instructions in 5.5.3 - Load a Configuration File from Disk.
NOTE
End users are unable to create a configuration file. Only Emerson Network Power technical
personnel can create a unique configuration file. Please contact your local Emerson Network
Power representative or call Liebert Services at 1-800-LIEBERT (1-800-543-2378) for
assistance.
NOTE
A configuration file is required for Offline Mode. If one is not available, connect to the
equipment locally and save the configuration to disk. See 5.5.4 - Install Configuration
Changes in the Unit and 5.5.5 - Save the Configuration File to Disk.
