2. Installation
1. Prior to mounting, observe requirements for the panel layout design
and spacing/clearances in the OCS RX371 Manual (MAN0924).
2. Cut the host panel.
3. Insert the OCS through the panel cutout (from the front). The
gasket material needs to be between the host panel and the OCS
Caution: Do not force the OCS into the panel cutout. An incorrectly
sized panel cutout can damage the touch screen.
4. Install and tighten the mounting clips (provided with the OCS) until
the gasket material forms a tight seal.
Caution: Do not over-tighten. Over-tightening damages the case
5. Connect cables as needed such as communications, programming,
power and CsCAN cables to the ports using the provided
connectors.
6. Begin configuration procedures.

As seen when looking at the side of the RX371 unit:
The DIP Switches are used for
termination of the RS-485 ports. The
RX371 is shipped un-terminated.
To terminate, select one of the DIP
Switches and configure it based
upon the option that is desired.
SW1 –
ON enables MJ2 RS485 port termination (121 ohms)
OFF disables MJ2 RS485 port termination.
SW2 & SW3 –
ON places MJ2 RS485 port in half-duplex mode.
OFF places MJ2 RS485 port in full-duplex mode.
SW4 –
ON enables MJ1 RS485 port termination (121 ohms)
OFF disables MJ1 RS485 port termination.

5. Safety
When found on the product, the following symbols specify:
Warning: Electrical
Shock Hazard.
Warning: Consult
user documentation.
This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D
or Non-hazardous locations only
WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD – Do not disconnect equipment unless
power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous.
AVERTISSEMENT - RISQUE D'EXPLOSION - AVANT DE DECONNECTOR
L'EQUIPMENT, COUPER LE COURANT OU S'ASSURER QUE
L'EMPLACEMENT EST DESIGNE NON DANGEREUX.
WARNING: To avoid the risk of electric shock or burns, always connect the
safety (or earth) ground before making any other connections.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or physical injury it is
strongly recommended to fuse the voltage measurement inputs. Be sure to
locate fuses as close to the source as possible.
WARNING: Replace fuse with the same type and rating to provide protection
against risk of fire and shock hazards.
WARNING: In the event of repeated failure, do not replace the fuse again as a
repeated failure indicates a defective condition that will not clear by replacing
the fuse.
WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD – Substitution of components may impair
suitability for Class I, Division 2
AVERTISSEMENT - RISQUE D'EXPLOSION - LA SUBSTITUTION DE
COMPOSANTS PEUT RENDRE CE MATERIAL INACCEPTABLE POUR LES
EMPLACEMENTS DE CLASSE 1, DIVISION 2
WARNING - The USB parts are for operational maintenance only. Do not leave
permanently connected unless area is known to be non-hazardous.
WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD - BATTERIES MUST ONLY BE
CHANGED IN AN AREA KNOWN TO BE NON-HAZARDOUS
AVERTISSEMENT - RISQUE D'EXPLOSION - AFIN D'EVITER TOUT
RISQUE D'EXPLOSION, S'ASSURER QUE L'EMPLACEMENT EST DESIGNE
NON DANGEREUX AVANT DE CHANGER LA BATTERIE
WARNING - Battery May Explode If Mistreated. Do Not Recharge, Disassemble
or Dispose Of In Fire
