4. Hardware Installation Procedure
STEP 1: After removing the Serial/Ethernet Converter from the box, first
connect the power adaptor. Connect the 12-48 VDC power line
with the terminal block, or connect the DIN-Rail power supply
with the Serial/Ethernet Converter’s terminal block.
STEP 2: Connect the Serial/Ethernet Converter to a network. Use a
standard straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to a Hub
or Switch. When setting up or testing the Serial/Ethernet
Converter, you might find it convenient to connect directly to
your computer’s Ethernet port. Use a cross-over Ethernet
cable If the PC don’t support autocrossing.
STEP 3: Connect the Serial/Ethernet Converter’s serial port to a serial
device.
STEP 4: The Serial/Ethernet Converter is designed to be attached to a
DIN-Rail or mounted on a wall. For DIN-Rail mounting, push
down the spring and properly attach it to the DIN-Rail until it
“snaps” into place. For wall mounting, install a wall mount kit
first, and then screw the device onto the wall. The following
figure illustrates the two mounting options:
