0 Aim of the Quick Start Guide
This quick start guide will help you with
● the mechanical handling of the switch,
● changing the memory card,
● connecting the power supply and commissioning the device,
● understanding the status LEDs,
● operating the keys,
● connecting the signal cables (inputs and outputs),
● setting up access to the network management,
● and configuring the ring protocol (media redundancy)
For further documentation see the Web Manager or visit the MICROSENS website (see section 10).

1 Mechanical handling
◊ Attaching an expansion module
Note: Install the expansion module before you mount the switch on the hat rail.
When combined, the switch and expansion modules support up to 25 ports.
● Place the switch on a steady surface, such as a table
● Unscrew the cover of the expansion interface
◦ Retain the cover and screws in case of later use
● Match up the expansion module carefully with the chassis (see Fig. 1) so that the alignment pins engage
● Lay the combination of switch and expansion module onto its left-hand side
● Turn the combination until you have easy access to the locking mechanism of the expansion module
● Place a screwdriver on the locking mechanism (see Fig. 2) and press on it firmly
● Use your other hand to press against the expansion module (see Fig. 3)
◦ The locking mechanism moves the catches of the expansion module
◦ This presses the catches into the slots of the chassis
● Ensure that all of the expansion module catches are properly engaged
◊ Removing an expansion module
● Disconnect the switch from the power supply and
network and remove it from the hat rail
● Place the switch with the front panel (LEDs) on a
steady surface, such as a table
● Place a screwdriver on the locking mechanism of the
expansion module (see Fig. 4)
● Press down firmly on the locking mechanism and
gently lever the expansion module off the chassis
(see Fig. 5)
◦ The locking mechanism releases the catches of
the expansion module
◦ Levering in this way pulls the catches out of the
slots in the chassis
● Reattach the cover for the expansion interface and
screw it on to the chassis
◊ Mounting on the hat rail
● Place the switch firmly onto the top of the hat rail (DIN EN 60715, 35x15)
● Rotate the chassis downwards until the hat-rail latch clicks into place
◊ Removal from the hat rail
● Insert a flat screwdriver into the opening in the metal tab on the underside of the chassis
● Pull the tab downwards until the hat-rail latch is released
● Rotate the switch upwards and lift it off the top of the rail
