8 When the booting (see Booting, Resetting the Switch) of the IDS is completed, press Enter to

display the setup prompt.

War ning : If you connect or disconnect the console cable with the power applied to the switch or any

device on the network, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion when installed in a haz­ardous location. Ensure the power is removed from all devices prior to making the cable connection.

Connecting Destination Ports

Data Port Connections

By default all of the 10/100/1000 ports will automatically set themselves up to match the speeds of all
attached devices. If auto negotiation is not supported by one or more attached devices, the ports can
be configured to operate at fixed speeds and duplex settings.

Warning: In hazardous location installations, failure to remove the power from the source prior when

completing the wiring connections to the Ethernet ports could cause an electrical arc resulting in a pos­sible explosion.

To connect to 10Base-T, 100Base-TX or 1000Base-T follow these steps:

1 When connecting to devices, workstations, servers or routers connect a straight through Ethernet

cable to a 10/100/1000 RJ45 connector on the front of the IDS switch. Gigabit Ethernet requires

CAT5 or better.
2 Once the device is connected and link is established the link LEDs will turn on. These LEDs will

indicate whether you have a 10,100 or 1000 Mb/s link to the switch. See. (LED Indicators) for more

details.

Note: It may take a few seconds for the device to become active. By default the IDS switch will have
Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP) protocol enabled. This protocol will first check the network for any cabling
loops prior to bringing the port up, in order to prevent network disruptions.

To connect to the 100Base-X Fiber devices:

1 Connect a fiber with the appropriate connector and fiber type for the specific IDS model. Ensure

that the device being connected to matches the fiber characteristics of the switch.
2 Once the fiber is connected and a link is established the LED (5) will display link and activity.

Appendix D - IDS DIN Rail and Wall Mounting

This appendix provides instruction on the following:

• Mounting the IDS Switch on a DIN Rail

• Removing the IDS from the DIN Rail

• Wall Mounting the IDS

Mounting the IDS Switch on a DIN Rail

1 The DIN rail clip will be fixed to the back of the IDS unit when you receive the switch.
2 Position the IDS switch such that the top hooks of the DIN rail clip attach onto the top of the DIN

rail.

3 Rotate the bottom of the IDS switch towards the rail. This will snap the bottom hooks of the DIN

rail clip onto the bottom of the DIN rail.

See diagram below

Removing the IDS from the DIN Rail

1 The DIN rail attachment clip has a slot at the bottom of the latch that is visible beneath the switch

when it is mounted.

2 Insert a flat blade screwdriver into the slot and twist the base to release the clip. Alternatively a

downward force on the clip will release the clip.

3 When the clip is released, pull the bottom of the switch out slightly and remove the switch from the DIN rail.

Wall Mounting the IDS

If you have purchased the optional wall mounting kit then proceed as below:

1 Remove the DIN rail clip from the rear panel on the IDS switch.
2 Attach the wall mount plates to the IDS switch as shown below using the screws provided in the kit.

Appendix D - IDS DIN Rail and Wall Mounting 21

3 Use the wall mount plates as a guide to mark the spot where the screws will be placed.
4 Drive the screws into the wall leaving about 2 mm of the screw protruding from the wall to allow

room for sliding the wall mount panel between the wall and the screws.
5 Once the screws are fixed to the wall, insert the four screw heads through the large parts of the

keyhole shaped screw openings
6 Pull the IDS switch down to lock the IDS switch to the wall mount.
7 Tighten the four screws securely to the wall.

Note: for best results use screws with the following attributes Head diameter .5 - .6 mm
Shaft diameter 3 -3.5 mm

Ethernet Cables

The 10/100/1000BaseT(X) ports located on the IDS switch’s front panel are used to connect to Ethernet­enabled devices. These Ethernet ports will automatically adjust depending on the type of Ethernet
cable used (straight-through or cross-over), and the type of device (NIC-type or HUB/Switch-type) con­nected to the port.

Requirements:

• Cat 5 UTP or STP, Cat 5e cables

• 24-22 AWG (0.20mm

• Straight through or Ethernet Crossover cable

Note: An optional cable adapter is available to provide RJ45 to DB9 conversion: Perle’s optional RJ45 to
DB9-F crossover adapter model DB0020C enables a straight through Ethernet cable to connect the RJ45
console port to a PC serial port.

Fiber Port Cabling Requirements

Duplex SC or ST Connector

• Multimode 50/125 or 62.5/125 micron fiber cable

• Single mode 9/125 micron fiber cable

Simplex (BIDI, single strand) SC or ST connector

• Multimode 50/125 or 62.5/125 micron fiber cable

• Single mode 9/125 micron fiber cable

Connect the fiber cable to Port 5 on the IDS switch and the other end to a compliant fiber device. If you
are making your own fiber cables, remember that the RX on one side needs to go to TX on the other side
and vice versa. See diagram below.
