Crash Course on Configuring the Babel Buster X2

The primary function of X2 is mapping LonWorks network variables to Modbus registers, and do this without "binding" or network management on the LonWorks side.

When you first log into Babel Buster X2, the home or index page that appears will look like the image below. Start by clicking the I/O Devices tab. You will be asked for a user name and password. As shipped, the default user name is "system" and its password is "admin".
