Connecting the Power

The unit can be powered by connecting a power source to the terminal block.

1. We recommend using 24 to 16 AWG wire. Strip 9 to 10 mm of insulation off the end of the wire before
inserting it into the termi nal b lo ck hole.

2. The power input range is from 12 to 48 VDC.

To remove the wire from the terminal block, use a flathead screwdriver to push the orange slot next to the
terminal block hole, and then pull the wire out.

Note that the unit does not have an on/off switch. It automatically turns on when it receives power. The PWR
LED on the front panel will glow to indicate that the unit is receiving power. There are two DC power inputs for
redundancy.

WARNING

This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Direct Plug

-In Power Unit Tma = 75°C. If you need

assistance with purchasing

a power supply, please contact Moxa for information.

Connecting Serial Devices

The unit’s serial port(s) are located on the front panel. If you are connecting an RS-485 multidrop network with
multiple devices, note the following:

• All devices that are connected to a single serial port must use the same protocol (i.e., either Modbus RTU,
Modbus ASCII, or DNP3).

• Each master device must connect to its own port on the unit. If you are connecting to a network with both
master and slave devices, the master mus t be connected to a separate port from the slaves.

For serial port pin assignments, refer to the Pin Assignments section.

RS-485 Termination and Pull High/Low Resistors

In some critical RS-485 environments, you may need to add termination resistors to prevent the reflection of
serial signals. When using termination resistors, it is important to set the p ull high/low resistors correctly so
that the electrical signal is not corrupted. For each serial port, DIP switches or jumper settings are used to set
the pull high/low resistor values. A built-in 120 Ω termination resistor can also be enabled.

To modify the termination and pull high/low resistor settings, refer t o the hardware reference chap ter for your
model.

ATTENTION

Do no t us e the 1 KΩ pu l l high/ l o w se ttin g on th e MGate

W5108/W5208 when using the RS-

232 interface. Doing

so will degrade the RS

-232 signals and reduce the effec tive communication distance.

MGate W5108/W5208 Series Getting Started

2-3

First Time Configuration

To configure the gateway for the first time, use an Ethernet cable to connect the 10/100BaseT Ethernet port
located on the front panel to a PC. The unit’s Link LED will light up to indicate a live Eth e rnet connection.

To connect to the MGate to the web console, open a web browser and enter the MGate gateway's IP address.
http://<MGate IP address>
The default IP address is 192.168.127.254. The default user name and password are Admin and Moxa,

respectively.
The welcome page shows information relevant to the gateway.

Installing the Software

If you are unable to log in to the unit, you ca n use the Moxa Device Search Utility to search for the unit. The
Device Search Utility (DSU) can be installed from the Documen tation and Software CD. Follow the onscreen
instructions after inserting the CD. For additional details, refer to Chapter 3: Device Search Utility.

Wiring Requirements

ATTENTION

Safety First!

Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your

MGate W5108/W5208.

Wiring Caution!

Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical

codes

dictating the maximum current allowable for each wire size.
If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your
equipment.

Temperature Caution!

Be careful when handling the

MGate W5108/W5208. When plugged in, the MGate W5108/W5208’s internal

components generate heat, and consequently the board may feel hot to the touch.

MGate W5108/W5208 Series Getting Started

2-4

You should also observe the following common wiring rules:

• Use separate paths to route wiring for p ower and devices. If power wiring and device wiring paths must
cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point.
NOTE: Do not run signal or communication wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid
interference, wires with different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

• You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which wires should be kept separate.
The rule of thumb is that wiring that shar es similar electrical characteristi cs can be bundled together.

• Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.

• When necessary, we strongly advise labeling wiring to all devic es in the s y ste m .

Adjustable Pull High/Low Resistors for the
RS-485 Port

In some critical environments, you may need to add termination resistors to prevent the reflection of serial
signals. When using termination resistors, it is important to set the pull high/low resistors correctly so that the
electrical signal is not corrupted. The MGate W5108/W5208 uses DIP switches to set the pull high/low resistor
values for each serial port. Tear open the screws and find the DIP switches located at the back side of the PCB.

To add a 120 Ω termination resistor, set switch 3 on the port’s assigned DIP switch to ON; set switch 3 to
OFF (the default setting) to disable the termination resistor.

To set the pull high/low resistors to 150 KΩ, set switches 1 and 2 on the port’s assigned DIP switch to OFF.
This is the default setting.

To set the pull high/low resistors to 1 KΩ, set switches 1 and 2 on the port’s assigned DIP switch to ON.

ATTENTION

Mounting the Unit

1. Connect the power adaptor. Connect the 12–48 VDC power line or DIN-rail power supply to the MGate
W5108/W5208 device’s terminal block.

2. Use a Modbus serial cable to connect the MGate to a Modbus slave device.

3. Use an E thernet cable to connect the MGate to the PC for configuration setup.

4. The MGate W5108/W5208 is designed to be attached to a DIN rail or mounted on a wall. For DIN rail
mounting, push down the spring and properly attach it to the DIN rail until it “snaps” into place. For wall
mounting, install the wall mount kit (optional) first, and then screw the device onto the wall. The following
figure illustrates the two mounting options:

microSD Card

The MGate W5108/W5208 series gateway is equipped a microSD card slot for easy configuration. The microSD
card can be used to store an MGate’s system configuration settings and the MGate’s system log. In addition, a
configuration stored on a microSD card can be uploaded automatically to an MGate.

NOTE

Inserting a microSD card into an MGates microSD slot results in one of two actions, depending on what kind of
data is currently stored on the card

:

If the microSD card contains a valid configuration file, the configuration will be automatically copied to

the

MGate.

If the microSD card

does not contain a valid configuration file (e.g., if it’s empty), the MGate’s configuration

will be copied to the microSD card.

Backing Up a Configuration

Use the following procedure to copy the configuration of an MGate gateway to a microSD card:

1. Use a PC to format the microSD card to support FAT file systems, and delete all of the data on the card.

2. Power off the MGate and insert the microSD card (make sure the microSD card is empty).

3. Power on the MGate. The current settings will be copied to the microSD card.

4. If you modify the MGate’s configuration using MGate Manager or the Web Console while the microSD card
is installed in the gateway, your configuration changes will be automatically saved to the microSD card
when you save the configuration.

Configuring an MGate (Mass deployment/Replacement)

Use the following procedure to copy the configuration stored on a microSD card to an MGate gateway for mass
deployment or to replace a faulty unit:

1. Power off the MGate device (often a new device ) a n d insert the microSD card.

2. Power on the MGate device.

3. The configuration file stored on the microSD card will be copied automatic ally to the MGate gateway.

microSD card Write Failure

The following events will cause the microSD card to experience a write failure.

1. The microSD card has less than 20 MB of free space.

2. The MGate configuration file is read-only.

3. The microSD card’s file system is co rrupted.

4. The microSD card is damaged.
