DX83 Ethernet Bridge for industrial network configuration and communication

The SureCross® DX80 is a radio frequency network system built around a Gateway and one
or more Nodes. The DX83 Ethernet Bridge connects between a DX80 Gateway device and a
computer. Once connected, the DX80 system may be configured using any Web browser.
The DX83 Ethernet Bridge also allows a host connection using Modbus/TCP.

• 10 to 30V dc power input

• Modbus serial interface and Ethernet interface

• XML formatted files store multiple configurations of the DX80 system

• IP address accessible configuration Web page

WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious
injury or death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its

use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de­energized sensor output condition.

The SureCross® DX80 Wireless Network

The SureCross® DX80 wireless I/O network provides reliable moni­toring without wiring or conduit installation. The SureCross wireless
network operates independently or in conjunction with a host system,
PLC, and/or PC software.

Each wireless network system consists of one Gateway and one or
more Nodes. Devices ship with factory-defined discrete, analog, or a
mix of discrete and analog inputs and outputs.

The SureCross® DX80 network is a deterministic system—the net­work identifies when the radio signal is lost and drives relevant out­puts to user-defined conditions. After the radio signal is reacquired,
the network returns to normal operation.

SureCross® DX80 Gateways and Nodes

A Gateway is the master device within each radio network. Every wireless network must have one Gateway, which schedules communi­cation traffic and controls the I/O configuration for the network, and one or more Nodes. Similar to how a gateway device on a wired
network acts as a “portal” between networks, the SureCross Gateway acts as the portal between the wireless network and the host
controller. When the Gateway, using its Modbus RTU RS-485 connection, is a Modbus slave to a Modbus RTU host controller, the wire­less network may contain up to 47 Nodes in a single wireless network. The Gateway holds the Modbus registers of all wireless devices
within the network.

SureCross DX83 Ethernet Bridge

A Node is a wireless network end-point device used to provide sensing capability in a remote area or factory. The Node collects data
from sensors and communicates the data back to the Gateway. Nodes are available in a wide variety of power or input/output options.

DX83 Ethernet Bridge Overview

The DX83 Ethernet Bridge adds the Web page configuration ability to a Gateway-Node wireless network as well as the ability to interface
to Ethernet using Modbus/TCP or EtherNet/IP protocols. A DX83 Ethernet Bridge connected to a DX80 Gateway functions like a DX80
GatewayPro while allowing the Gateway to have I/O points. There are two basic DX83 models:

• DX83T. The T model acts as a protocol converter only, offering the Modbus/TCP or EtherNet/IP communication protocols.

• DX83A. The A model includes DX80 wireless network configuration, Modbus RTU master, Modbus/TCP client/server, Script Basic, e­mail, data logging, and trending.

Connect a DX83 Ethernet Bridge to a host system using the indus­trial Ethernet connection on the DX83. To connect the DX83 di­rectly to the host system without using an Ethernet switchbox/hub,
some host systems may require a crossover cable.

By default, the DX83 is configured to use Modbus/TCP. To use
EtherNet/IP, you must connect the DX83 to a managed switch and
you must use the Web Configuration tool to select EtherNet/IP
(see SureCross Wireless I/O Product Manual or Host Configura-

tion Manual).

Logging into the Web Configurator

The SureCross® Pro and DX83 Ethernet Bridge devices use an XML file to configure the network. To access the XML file, use any web
browser set up for a direct connection to the Internet. If problems occur while connecting, verify the browser is not set to use a proxy
server.

When connecting to the Ethernet Bridge, GatewayPro, or MultiHop Pro directly from a host computer, a crossover Ethernet cable is
required; when connecting through a switch or Ethernet hub, use a standard Ethernet cable.

• The factory default IP address for the devices is: 192.168.0.1.

To change the device’s default IP address, first set up the host PC with an IP address different from the Ethernet Bridge, GatewayPro, or
MultiHop Pro IP addresses. (Please refer to Banner document 133116 for instructions on setting up the host computer’s network IP ad­dress.) After changing the host’s IP address, open a web browser and log into the Ethernet Bridge, GatewayPro, or MultiHop Pro by
typing the IP address in the browser location window: http://192.168.0.1.

After entering the IP address, the home web page for the SureCross device displays. To log in, click on any tab at the top of the page. To
log out, close the browser.

Admin-level access allows administrators to set up system users and their passwords. Admin-level access is also required to change the
IP address of the system. For Admin-level access, enter the following as the user name and password:

• User name: root

• Password: sxi

For user-level access, enter the following as the user name and password.

Serial Communication Configuration for DX83s

The DX83 Ethernet Bridge uses jumpers to select between RS-485 and RS-232 communications.
Install the four jumpers across the two top rows of pins for RS-485 and across the bottom two rows of pins for RS-232.
