7.3 Hardware Installation
Once the Sentry software is installed, you can proceed to connect and configure the Guardian2 QR BDA.
To install the hardware, first complete the following steps:
• USB Connection. Use a USB cable to connect your computer directly to the Guardian2 QR USB port. The USB
connection on the Guardian 3 QR is accessible by opening the NEMA-4 enclosure. The port is on top of the unit
inside the enclosure, as shown below.
• Ethernet Connection. Plug the Ethernet cable into the yellow-capped socket on the bottom of the NEMA-4
enclosure, labeled Ethernet. The other end of the Ethernet cable goes to the network server or network switch on
the LAN.
Once the connections are made, power on the Guardian2 QR BDA.
Register an account: Before you install the hardware, you’ll first need to register an account. Connect your computer
to the network where the Guardian2 QR Ethernet connection was made. A secure LAN connection is important
because it will allow the computer to “see” the Guardian2 QR device on the network.
Start the Sentry client application by clicking on the shortcut that resulted from installing the software. You will see the
