LC3000 L A U N D R Y C E N T E R I N S TA L L A T I O N
This manual provides instructions for selecting, installing, and configuring the
Blackboard Laundry Center using the LC3000 Laundry Reader.
The LC3000 Laundry Reader controls laundry machines across a laundry Center
network and Blackboard Transaction System (BbTS) and communicates with users
interface through a display, keypad, and mag-stripe reader. The network connections
are 10/100 Base-T or RS-485, machine connections are wired or wireless.
Laundry Readers connecting to a Universal Edition Host in RS-485 mode require
an IP Converter (IPC).
Universal Edition using RS-485 network connections DOES NOT support wireless
communications with laundry machines.
Wired Solution
The wired solution reader supports up to 60 laundry machines across three connected Multiplexers. The first
Multiplexer is installed inside the LC3000.
Each machine uses a Laundry Controller Interface (LCI), a wiring harness inside the machine, to facilitate
communications between the laundry machine controller and LC3000 Laundry Reader.

The wired Blackboard laundry solution supports up to 60 laundry machines. Multiplexers (LCM20s) facilitate up to 20
wired machine connections each. In laundry centers with 20 or fewer machines, a single Multiplexer is installed inside
the LC3000 enclosure. Laundry Centers supporting more than 20 machines require additional Multiplexers and
enclosures for mounting, power and protection. Order an enclosure, LE3/PSENCL, for each additional Multiplexer. The
Reader supports three (3) Multiplexers.
Each Multiplexer connects to 20 machines, using a Laundry Controller Interface installed inside the machine. The
Laundry Controller Interface (LCI) is a wiring harness that communicates with the laundry machine controller.

Select the appropriate hardware and mount the LE3/BRIDGE
enclosure.
Install 1/2” PVC conduit from the LC3000 to the enclosure.
The LE3/BRIDGE includes two configuration cables (p/n 044-042043). This cable has an RJ-45 connector and a 22-pin Molex
connector. Plug the 22-pin connector into the Bridge module.
A patch cable is required to span the distance between the LE3/
BRIDGE enclosure and the LC3000 Reader. Pull the Patch cable
FIGURE 21: Wireless Bridge
through the conduit. Install the RJ-45 inline coupler between the
patch cable and the configuration cable. Install the opposite end of
the patch cable into the jack labeled BRIDGE RS-485 of the LC3000 Reader.
Place the Bridge module into the enclosure.
Verify communication between the Bridge module and LC3000 Reader using the status LED. The LED should be
blinking approximately once every second. Install the cover onto the plastic enclosure to enclose the cable and
module.
Note: The wire antenna must be slightly arced when the cover is installed.
Laundry Wireless Interface Module (LWI) Installation
Configure the LWI Module
Before installing an LWI module in a washer or dryer, the module must be configured. Configuring consists of assigning
a network ID and machine ID. These two parameters make each LWI module unique within the wireless network,
ensuring only a single module responds to a command from the Bridge.
The network ID can be assigned the values 1 through 7. This number must be identical to the number assigned to the
Bridge. This value sychronizes the communication between the Bridge and the LWI module by selecting the
appropriate frequency hopping table.
The machine ID can be assigned the values 1 through 60. This number corresponds to the unique number assigned to
each washer/dryer located in the Laundry Center. Each washer and dryer must be labeled with the machine number.
The number should be clearly visible to patrons using the Laundry Center.
For Stack Dryers, a single module is used to support both upper and lower machines. The top machine must be
assigned the odd number, the lower machine the even number. The even number must always be 1 more than the
odd number. Thus valid pairs are (1, 2), (3, 4) and (29, 30) and so forth. An invalid combination would be (28, 29).
This would be considered as separate machines at the host software level. The assignment of the top machine
being an odd number is the result of the electrical connection between the wiring harness and module.
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.
Apply power the LC3000 Reader and make sure it is online.
Install the configuration cable (p/n 044-042-043) into the RJ-12 jack labeled LWI CONFIG.
This cable is supplied with the LE3/BRIDGE.

WIRELESS LAUNDRY MACHINE INTERFACE INSTALLATION
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.
Set the Network ID.
Valid values are 1 through 7. This value must match the network ID selected for the Bridge.
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.
When programming has been completed, disconnect the LWI module from the configuration cable.
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.
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.
Install the LWI3010 Module for Maytag laundry machines
Maytag laundry machines require an LWI3010 module. A single LWI3010 will support both
single washer/dryer machines and stacked dryer machines.
Disconnect all power to the machines.
Remove the operator console (with display and switches) from the machine.
Single machine: remove only the top two screws.
Stacked machine: remove only the lower two screws on the top panel.
With access to the machine’s control board, Install the six-pin connector of the wiring
harness into the (AA3) connector of the laundry machine’s control board.
22: LWI wireless module
Stacked machines: Install the 2-pin connector on the wiring harness into the (AA2) connector of the control board.
Install the 22-pin connector of the wiring harness into the LWI3010 wireless module.

Install the LWI3020 Module for Alliance/Speed Queen laundry machines
Alliance/Speed Queen laundry machines require an LWI3020 module. A single LWI3020 will support both single
washer/dryer machines and stacked dryer machines.
Before installing an LWI3020, verify that the transformer in the machine is the correct type. The
transformer should have 4 Red wires on the secondary side. If there are only 2 wires, then the transformer
must be replaced. The correct transformer is (p/n 201375P), and can be ordered from Alliance Laundry
Systems through your laundry supplier.
Disconnect all power to the machines.
Remove the operator console (with display and switches) from the machine.
Single machine: remove only the top two screws.
With access to the machine’s control board, install the 4-pin connector of the wiring harness labeled P1 onto the
(H5) connector of the laundry machine’s control board.
The H5 connector may be either 4 or 7 pin. If the connector has 7 pins, the P1 connector must be installed on pins
1 through 4.
When installing the LWI3020 onto a stacked machine, the P2 connector must be installed into the control
board of the even numbered machine. For example, if the stacked machine will be assigned machines 3
and 4 within the laundry center, then the P1 connector would be installed in the control board identified as
machine 3 and the P2 connector must be installed in the control board of the machine identified as
machine 4.
