Preparing for Installation

Basic Communications

• IP Address _______________________________________________

When connecting the RIM-1000 to the network, have the following information available. If necessary, ask your IT administrator to provide this information, so you can assign it to the RIM-1000.

2 Connect the other end of the crossover cable to the Ethernet port on the back of

the RIM-1000. Note:Alternatively, you could use the RIM-1000’s EIA-232 interface to access the RIM-1000. Refer to the RIM-1000 User Manual (available at www.chatsworth.com/Products/Environmental-Monitoring-and-Security/RIM-1000).

3 Write down the computer’s current IP address, subnet mask and default gateway.

Change these items temporarily so that the computer can communicate with the RIM-1000. RIM-1000 default IP address: 10.0.0.188. RIM-1000 default subnet mask:

255.255.255.0.

4 Access the RIM-1000 through a web browser by typing the RIM-1000’s default IP

address (10.0.0.188) into the location bar and pressing Enter.

Enter the following: Default User Name: cpi (all lowercase)

Default Password: No default password. Leave this ﬁeld blank.

5 From the top bar, select the Conﬁguration Menu link.

Use values provided by IT administrator.

RIM-1000 Default Values

IP address: 10.0.0.188 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

1 Enter the values for IP Address, Net Mask (subnet mask) and Def Route

(default gateway) provided by your IT administrator. Once you enter the values and click the Submit Changes button, the RIM-1000 saves the changes and reboots. The system status LED on front of the RIM-1000 stops ﬂashing.

2 Reset the computer to its original IP address and subnet mask. Note: This step

might require assistance from your IT administrator. The computer and the RIM-1000 are now both conﬁgured to communicate on the network.

3 Connect the computer and the RIM-1000 to the network.

4 From the computer’s web browser, go to the new IP address of the RIM-1000.

5 When prompted, enter the user name and password to verify network access to the

RIM-1000 (as you did in step 4 in the previous section). If the login window for the RIM-1000 does not display:

A Verify that the cables are ﬁrmly attached. B Verify that you entered the correct IP address for the RIM-1000. C Check for activity on the Link and Active LEDs on the front of the RIM-1000

as follows:

• Subnet Mask _____________________________________________

• Default Gateway __________________________________________

Email Notiﬁcations

• Primary DNS _______________________________________________

• Secondary DNS _____________________________________________

• Mail SMTP address __________________________________________ (IP address or host name)

• Mail sender address_______________________________________________

• Mail recipient addresses (up to 8)__________________________________

ESMTP (for e-mail authentication)

• ESMTP user name _______________________________________________

• ESMTP password _____________________________________________

Conﬁguring the Inputs

Making the Physical Connections

The following ﬁgure shows examples of input wiring.

The eight non-isolated universal inputs are connected to TB2 and TB3. Universal input channels can be individually conﬁgured through the RIM1000 to monitor a 4-20mA signal, a normally open (NO) dry contact relay or a normally closed (NC) dry contact relay.

Conﬁguring Inputs

Conﬁguring Email Notiﬁcation

The RIM-1000 sends one email message per alarm instance to a maximum of eight email recipients.

Monitor

Once you have wired the inputs, make note of the following:

• Sensor type (analog or digital) connected to each channel.

• For analog sensors, the high/low values.

• For digital sensors, the non-alarm state - normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC).

Conﬁguring the Channels

Conﬁgure the input channels using the Inputs & Relays page of the RIM-1000 web inteface. Click on the underlined label for the input you want to conﬁgure.

A Input can be Analog 4-20 mA or Digital NO or NC. B Applies only to analog inputs. Gain and offsett determine the correct

value for the RIM-1000.

C Applies only to analog inputs. Hysteresis designates the amount an input

must change before returning to normal.

D Applies only to analog inputs. Displays units on main menu, such as Deg F,

Deg C, %RH, Amps, Volts, psi, etc.

E RIM-1000 current raw reading and calculated value. F Applies only to Analog inputs. High and Low alarm thresholds of range

being monitored.

G This label is displayed on the RIM-1000 menu and the conﬁguration menu. H Relay conﬁguration link.

Conﬁguring System Information

A Refer to information from IT administrator. B Text that is easily recognized as notiﬁcation from the RIM-1000. C Up to eight email recipients. D For ESMTP email authentication. Refer to information from IT

administrator.
