Safety Precaution - Static Electricity
Static electricity can cause bodily harm or damage electronic devices. To avoid
damage, keep static-sensitive devices in the static-protective packaging until the
installation period. The following guidelines are also recommended:
Wear a grounded wrist or ankle strap and use gloves to prevent direct contact to
the device before servicing the device. Avoid nylon gloves or work clothes,
which tend to build up a charge.
Always disconnect the power from the device before servicing it.
Before plugging a cable into any port, discharge the voltage stored on the cable
by touching the electrical contacts to the ground surface.

2.2.1Wall Mounting
The wall mounting option provides better shock and vibration resistance than the DIN
rail vertical mount.
Note!When installing, make sure to allow for enough space to properly install
the cabling.
Before the device can be mounted on a wall, you will need to remove the DIN rail
plate.
1.On the installation site, place the device firmly against the wall. Make sure the
device is vertically and horizontally level.
2.Insert a pencil or pen through the screw holes on the mounting bracket to mark
the location of the screw holes on the wall.
3.Remove the device from the wall and drill holes over each marked location (4)
on the wall, keeping in mind that the holes must accommodate wall sinks in
addition to the screws.
4.Insert the wall sinks into the walls.
5.Align the mounting bracket over the screw holes on the wall.
6.Starting with the upper bracket, insert a screw through the bracket and rotate it
to secure. Do not tighten at this point. Repeat for the remaining locations, see
the following figure.
Figure 2.5 Wall Mount Installation
7.Once the device is installed on the wall, tighten the screws to secure the device.

2.2.6.1 Overview
Warning! Power down and disconnect the power cord before servicing or wiring
the device.
Caution! Do not disconnect modules or cabling unless the power is first switched
off.
The device only supports the voltage outlined in the type plate. Do not
use any other power components except those specifically designated
for the device.
Caution! Disconnect the power cord before installation or cable wiring.
The devices can be powered by using the same DC source used to power other
devices. A DC voltage range of 24 to 110 V
must be applied between the V1+
DC
terminal and the V1- terminal (PW1), see the following illustrations. The chassis
ground screw terminal should be tied to the panel or chassis ground. A redundant
power configuration is supported through a secondary power supply unit to reduce
network down time as a result of power loss.

2.2.6.2 Considerations
Take into consideration the following guidelines before wiring the device:
The Terminal Block (CN1) is suitable for 12-24 AWG (3.31 - 0.205 mm
value 7 lb-in.
The cross sectional area of the earthing conductors shall be at least 3.31 mm
Calculate the maximum possible current for each power and common wire.
Make sure the power draw is within limits of local electrical code regulations.
For best practices, route wiring for power and devices on separate paths.
Do not bundle together wiring with similar electrical characteristics.
Make sure to separate input and output wiring.
Label all wiring and cabling to the various devices for more effective
management and servicing.

Note!Routing communications and power wiring through the same conduit
may cause signal interference. To avoid interference and signal
degradation, route power and communications wires through separate
conduits.
2.2.6.3 Grounding the Device
Caution! Do not disconnect modules or cabling unless the power is first switched
off.
The device only supports the voltage outlined in the type plate. Do not
use any other power components except those specifically designated
for the device.
Caution! Before connecting the device properly ground the device. Lack of a
proper grounding setup may result in a safety risk and could be
hazardous.
Caution! Do not service equipment or cables during periods of lightning activity.

so.
Caution! Do not block air ventilation holes.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) affects the transmission performance of a device.
By properly grounding the device to earth ground through a drain wire, you can setup
the best possible noise immunity and emissions.
Figure 2.12 Grounding Connection
By connecting the ground terminal by drain wire to earth ground the device and
chassis can be ground.
Note!Before applying power to the grounded device, it is advisable to use a
volt meter to ensure there is no voltage difference between the power
supply’s negative output terminal and the grounding point on the device.
2.2.6.4 Wiring the Power Inputs
Caution! Do not disconnect modules or cabling unless the power is first switched
off.
The device only supports the voltage outlined in the type plate. Do not
use any other power components except those specifically designated
for the device.
Warning! Power down and disconnect the power cord before servicing or wiring
the device.

Make sure the power cable is not connected to the switch or the power converter
before proceeding.
1.Align the notch on the cable with the protrusion on the connector port. Before
inserting the cable, the cable must be aligned to the connector to prevent
damage to the pins in the port.
2.Insert the cable and gently push it in. If there is any resistance, remove the
cable and re-align it with the connector.
3.Once the cable is fully seated in the port, turn the nut on the cable to secure it to
the connector.

The power input is now connected to the switch. The switch can be powered on.
To remove the power inputs:
Make sure the power is not connected to the device or the power converter before
proceeding.
1.Loosen the screws securing the connector to the power cable receptor.
2.Remove the power cable from the device.
