Wiring the power
Inside the EnviroNET, the power cable is wired to the power supply, but it is not wired externally because different customers require different lengths of power cable for their specific EnviroNET environments. You will
need to provide your desired length of power cable for the unit.
You should run the power cable through the brass gland that is placed to the far left on the bottom panel of the
EnviroNET. (See figure 5). The steps to wiring the power include: running the power cable wires through the
gland, and connecting the power cable wires to the EnviroNET unit.
Running the power cable through the gland
To run the power cable through the gland:
1. Locate the gland that the power cable should be run through. (See figure 5).
Power cable
gland
Figure 5. Gland designated for the power cable
2. You may unscrew the gland to allow more flexibility when threading the power cable wires. To unscrew the
gland, either by hand or with a Crescent® (adjustable) wrench, turn the gland to the left until it is loosened.
3. Carefully thread the wires through the gland from the outside into the EnviroNET.
Note The brass glands on the bottom panel of the EnviroNET can prop-
erly seal cables with an outer diameter between 3mm and 8mm.

EnviroNET User Manual 4 • Operating the EnviroNET
Powering up the EnviroNET
The EnviroNET is designed to be powered on automatically. There is no power switch. The green power
LED will light when the power is on (ET and EC models only).
To power the EnviroNET:
1. You need to wire the power cable. If you haven’t done this already, go to the section, “Wiring the power”
on page 17 in Chapter 2, “Installing the EnviroNET” .
2. After all of the cables are properly wired, close and lock the case. Plug the power cable into an electrical
outlet.
Note Once in operation, the EnviroNET will run over all temperatures
without user intervention.
LEDs (ET and EC models only)
The EnviroNET has two LEDs, Power and Temperature Control Indicator.
ET models
• Power: The Power light will be on when the EnviroNET is operating normally.
• Temperature Control: The Temperature Control Indicator light will be on when the heater is on. The
heater will automatically come on at temperatures under -40ºC (-40ºF). When the Temperature Control
Indicator light is on, the EnviroNET will not be powered on to operate and the Power light will be off.
EC models
• Power: The Power light will be on when the EnviroNET is operating normally.
• Temperature Control: The Temperature Control Indicator light will be on for temperature control condi-
tions, such as when the fan is operating.
Note EH models do not have a fan or heater, therefore they do not have
LEDs.
Powering up the EnviroNET 32
Page 33
EnviroNET User Manual 4 • Operating the EnviroNET
About Thermal Operation (ET Models only)
The ET model is the only EnviroNET model that includes a heater. The ET unit will not turn on at -40ºC (40ºF). The heater controller monitors the temperature until it is warm enough to turn on the device. The
device inside cannot be turned on below 0ºC (32ºF).
The heater controller will automatically start warming the inside of the unit until the internal temperature is
above 0ºC (32ºF). During that warm-up period, the Temperature Control Indicator LED will light. The unit
will take 20-30 minutes to power on from a cold start at -40ºC (-40ºF). Of course, warmer ambient temperatures will shorten this warm-up time.
Once the unit powers on, the unit will stay powered on when ambient temperatures drop below 0ºC (32ºF).
At those times, the heater will turn on to maintain the proper internal temperature. The Temperature Control
Indicator LED will light when the heater is on.
The fan will speed up cooling and heating times.
Operating the EnviroNET
If the EnviroNET has been configured correctly, it should operate normally without user intervention.
Because the EnviroNET Ethernet Extenders are configured using dip switches on the PC board, it is best to
power down the unit before changing the configuration of the dip switches.
