The TX port on the FX/FXE models should be connected to the RX port of the far end station. The RX port on the FX/FXE versions should be connected to the TX port of the far end station. For 10/100 Base-TX ports, plug a Category 5E twisted pair cable into the RJ45 connector. Connect the other end to the far end station.
N-TRON SWITCH GROUNDING TECHNIQUES The grounding philosophy of any control system is an integral part of the design. N-Tron switches are designed to be grounded, but the user has been given the flexibility to float the switch when required. The best noise immunity and emissions (i.e. CE) are obtained when the N-Tron switch chassis is connected to earth ground via a drain wire. Some N-Tron switches have metal din-rail brackets that can ground the switch if the din-rail is grounded.
SERIAL INTERFACE The 7014 Series switches provide an EIA-232 interface accessed via a 9 pin female connector (labeled ‘COM’ on the unit). This is used to access the Command Line Interpreter (CLI). The pin-outs are shown below: Serial Cable Connect the serial COM port of your PC and the 7014 Series Switch using a standard straight through cable. You will require a cable with a 9-pin or 25-pin sub-D female connector for the PC end, and a 9-pin male sub-D connector for the 7014 Series end.
Overview of Advanced Features Mode of Operation Each port on the switch can be configured into different modes of operation as shown below: Copper Ports: 100Base Fiber Ports: 1000Base Fiber Ports: - Half Duplex - Full Duplex - Full Duplex - Full Duplex - Auto Negotiation Half Duplex In half duplex mode, the CSMA/CD media access method is the means by which two or more stations share a common transmission medium.
Priority Tagging (QoS) IEEE 802.1p priority tagging is supported for two classes of services along with bandwidth support per priority level. Transparent mode is supported through configuration wherein if the field is set, the tag bits are ignored. The User can configure up to 8 different priority levels per port. Also priority overriding (overriding the tagged field) can be enabled or disabled by the user.
SNMP Traps The 7014 Series switch supports up to 5 SNMP Trap Stations to which SNMP Traps will be sent. The switch supports three standard traps; Link Up, Link Down, and Cold Start. SNMP Traps will be sent to all the stations configured on the switch if a port Link goes up or down, and when the switch first powers up. IGMP Snooping IGMP Snooping is enabled by default, and the switch is Plug and Play for IGMP. IGMP snooping provides intelligent network support for multicast applications.
TROUBLESHOOTING 1. Make sure the 2. Make sure you are supplying sufficient current for the version chosen. Note: The Inrush current will exceed the steady state current by ~ 2X. 3. Verify that Link LED’s are ON for connected ports. 4. Verify cabling used between stations. 5. Verify that cabling is Category 5E or greater for 100Mbit Operation. (Power LED) is ON.
