  • Once your devices are installed, set up / provision all the installed devices. See the Setup Device guides for step-by-step instructions for each device type.

4. Set Up LMC and System Architecture​

To access the dashboard, your LMC and Gateway must be configured correctly.

  • Make sure your LMC is properly set up (Ethernet cable, power cable, IP configuration, etc.).
  • Ensure your Gateway is configured and added to zones. This is required to operate devices in Cloud Mode.
  • Check your router connection with the LMC and confirm network setup.

5. Get Your IP Address​

Before opening the dashboard, you need to know the Assigned IP Address of your LMC.

  • Log in to your router's admin portal (usually accessible via an address such as 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1, printed on the router itself).
  • Navigate to the connected devices / DHCP client list section.
  • Locate your LMC in the list and note down its assigned IP address.

Tip: You can also use a tool like Advanced IP Scanner to scan your local network and quickly identify your LMC's assigned IP address, without needing to log in to the router portal.

6. Accessing the Dashboard​

Once you know your Assigned IP Address (Static or Dynamic):

  • Open any web browser on your PC or display device.
  • Enter the LMC IP Address into the browser's search bar.
  • If the IP is correct, the Loft Dashboard Login Screen will appear.
