1. Overview

The ioLogik 2500 is a smart remote I/O product with unique hardware and software designs, making it an

ideal solution for a variety of industrial data acquisition applications. The ioLogik 2500’s hardware design

includes a 4-port unmanaged Ethernet switch and 2 serial ports, enabling the ioLogik 2500 to seamlessly

connect to a variety of field devices. One of the Ethernet ports can be used to link to 8 daisy-chained

ioLogik E1200 expansion modules to provide more than 100 channels. The ioLogik 2500 acts as the “head”

unit, with Click&Go Plus logic used to control the entire I/O array. Most importantly, the ioLogik 2500’s

single IP is all that’s required to connect the entire I/O array to your network, providing the perfect solution

for industrial field sites that have an insufficient number of IP addresses.

For cellular connections, the ioLogik 2500 supports Moxa’s patented MX-AOPC Server with push

communications technology, and provides an economical solution for accessing multiple remote I/O devices

connected to the same private IP network, which itself links to the outside world over a cellular connection

using dynamic IP addresses.

Daisy-Chaining for I/O Expansion

Up to 8 ioLogik E1200 devices can be connected in a daisy chain configuration to the ioLogik 2500 via the

L1/Slave port on the ioLogik 2500. An IOxpress configuration scheme is called a project. If the IOxpress

project includes expansion devices, the ioLogik 2500 will automatically start running in expansion mode.

If the ioLogik 2500 is running, you can replace one of the expansion units without powering down the

ioLogik 2500. Take the following steps to replace an expansion unit:

1. Power-off the expansion unit.

2. Replace the unit with another expansion unit of the same model.

3. Access the DIP switch beneath the cover plate (as shown below).

ATTENTION

When using the ioLogik 2500 as the wireless head of an array of ioLogik E1200 modules, make sure that:

4. Move the DIP switch from the down position to the up position to trigger the ioLogik 2500 to refresh its

connection with the expansion units. If the DIP switch is already in the up position, move it down and

then back up again.

5. The expansion unit will start running.

You may also use the ioLogik 2500’s web console to reconnect the expansion units.

1. You connect the first E1200 expansion module in the array to the ioLogik 2500’s L1 Slave port.

2. A maximum of 8 ioLogik E1200 devices are connected in a single array.

ioLogik 2500 Series Installation

2-6

If you need to reset the ioLogik 2500 to factory

defaults, press and hold the reset button (located

under the cover-plate, as shown in the diagram) for

5 seconds.

WARNING

Resetting your device to factory defaults will result in the loss of all configuration settings and any Click&Go

Plus logic settings that have already been configured.

ATTENTION

The maximum cable length of a 10/100BaseT connection is 100 m (

shorter depending on the amount of electrical noise in the environment. To minimize the amount of noise,

Ethernet cables should not run parallel to power cables or other cables that generate electrical noise.
