LE3/BRIDGE Placement
A plastic enclosure is provided with the LE3/BRIDGE. The enclosure is used to house the Wireless Interface Module
and must be mounted externally from the LC3000. Use the following criteria to select the appropriate placement:
• Mount in centrally located area to minimize distance
to any laundry machine.
• Mount on ceiling or elevated location to increase
range.
• Avoid locations near metal objects.
• Avoid having obstructions or barriers between the
LE3/BRIDGE and laundry machines.

Mount the LE3/BRIDGE
The LE/3 BRIDGE must be mounted external to the LC3000.Select the appropriate hardware and mount the LE3/
BRIDGE plastic enclosure.

The LE3/BRIDGE includes a wiring harness with an RJ-45 connector and 22-pin Molex connector.
The 22-pin connector plugs into the wireless module. The RJ-45 connector must be connected to the RJ-45 jack
identified as BRIDGE RS-485 on the LC3000. Connection between the two requires installing a patch cable and
using an RJ-45 inline coupler. Pull a patch cable (CAT5) through the conduit and install the inline coupler. Connect
the LE3/BRIDGE wiring harness to the inline coupler.
