3 Plug the 22-pin connector into the mating connector of the LWI module.
The LC3000 Reader will detect the LWI module. The top two lines of the display show the machine ID,
software version and network ID. The factory default for the network ID and machine ID is FF. If the
LWI module has previously been assigned, the message Already Assigned is displayed. In all cases,
enter 1 for yes, to reassign the network ID and/or machine ID.
4 Set the Network ID.
Valid values are 1 through 6. This value must match the network ID selected for the Bridge.
5 Set the machine ID.
Valid Values are 1 through 60.
It is imperative the LWI module, once programmed with the machine ID, be installed in the
corresponding labeled laundry machine. A label is provided on the side of the module, to allow the
installer to write the machine ID programmed into the module.
6 When programming has been completed, disconnect the LWI module from the configuration cable.
Note: The steps listed above must be repeated for each LWI module to be installed in the
Laundry Center. When programming the machine ID, the values should be written on the label
provided to ensure it is installed in the correct washer or dryer.
Note: Remove an LWI with the remove LWI command; removelwi value (value = 1-60).
Install the LWI Module
To install an LWI module, either the hood or front panel of the laundry machine will have to be removed to
gain access to the electronic control board. Consult the manufacturer’s manual for steps to perform this
task. Each LWI30xx contains a wiring harness for connecting the LWI module to the laundry machine’s
control board. All wiring harnesses support both single and stacked machines. If installing in a single
machine, some connectors may not be used.
In a typical installation, the LWI module can be installed inside the laundry machine. However, if a laundry
machine is more then 75 feet from the LE3/BRIDGE, it may be necessary to mount the module on the
outside of the laundry machine for best reception. Sheet metal screws are provided with the module.
