Chapter 1

Power and Relay Connector

You connect the DC power and alarm signals to the switch through two front panel connectors. One connector provides primary DC power (supply A) and the major alarm signal, and a second connector (supply B) provides secondary power and the minor alarm signal. The two connectors are physically identical and are in the upper left side of the front panel, as shown in the figure below.

The switch accessory pack includes the mating power and relay connectors. These connectors provide screw terminals for terminating the DC power and alarm wire and plug into the power and relay receptacles on the front panel. The positive DC power connection is labeled V, and the return is the adjacent connection labeled RT, as shown in the figure below.

The switch can operate with a single power source or with dual power sources. When both power sources are operational, the switch draws power from the DC source with the higher voltage. If one of the two power sources fail, the other continues to power the switch.

31783-M

WARNING

When you connect or disconnect the power and relay connector with power applied, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous area installations. Be sure that power is removed from the switch and alarm circuit. Be sure that power cannot be accidentally turned on or verify that the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.

Failure to securely tighten the power and relay connector captive screws can result in an electrical arc if the connector is accidentally removed.

The power and relay connectors also provide an interface for two independent alarm relays: the major alarm and the minor alarm. The relays can be activated for environmental, power supply, and port status alarm conditions and can be configured to indicate an alarm with either open or closed contacts. The relay itself is normally open, so under power failure conditions, the contacts are open. From the Command Line Interface (CLI), you can associate any alarm condition with one alarm relay or with both relays.

Alarm relays often control an external alarm device, such as a bell or a light. To connect an external alarm device to the relay, you must connect two relay contact wires to complete an electrical circuit. Both alarm terminals on the power and relay connector are labeled A. You can connect them without regard to polarity.

Cable and Connectors.

Console Port

Dual-Purpose Uplink Ports

For configuring, monitoring, and managing the switch, you can connect a switch to a computer through the console port and the supplied RJ45-to-DB-9 adapter cable. If you want to connect a switch to a terminal, you need to provide an RJ45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter. For console-port and adapter-pinout information, see the Two Twisted-pair Straight-through Cable

Schematic on page 76.

WARNING

The two dual-purpose uplink ports may each be configured for RJ45 (copper) or SFP (fiber) media types. Only one of these connections in each of the dual-purpose ports can be active at a time. If both ports are connected, the SFP module port has priority.

If you connect or disconnect the console cable with power applied to the switch or any device on the network, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.

To verify switch operation, perform POST on the switch in a nonhazardous location before installation.

You can set the copper RJ45 ports to operate at 10, 100, or 1000 Mb/s in full-duplex or half-duplex mode. You can configure them as fixed 10, 100, or 1000 Mb/s (Gigabit) Ethernet ports and can configure the duplex setting.

You can use approved Gigabit (or 100 Mbps) Ethernet SFP modules to establish fiber-optic connections to other switches. These transceiver modules are field-replaceable, providing the uplink interfaces when inserted in an SFP module slot. You use fiber-optic cables with LC connectors to connect to a fiber-optic SFP module. These ports operate in the full duplex mode only.

10/100 Ports

100BASE-FX Ports

Rear Panel

You can set the 10/100 ports to operate at 10 or 100 Mb/s in full-duplex or half-duplex mode. You can also set these ports for speed and duplex autonegotiation in compliance with IEEE 802.3-2002. (The default setting is autonegotiate.)

When set for autonegotiation, the port senses the speed and duplex settings of the attached device. If the connected device also supports autonegotiation, the switch port negotiates the best connection (that is, the fastest line speed that both devices support and full-duplex transmission if the attached device supports it) and configures itself accordingly. In all cases, the attached device must be within 100 m (328 ft.) of the switch.

The IEEE 802.3-2002 100BASE-FX ports (on the 1783-MX08F expansion module) provide full-duplex 100 Mb/s connectivity over multimode fiber (MMF) cables. These ports use a built-in, small-form-factor fixed (SFF) fiber-optic transceiver module that accepts a dual LC connector. The cable can be up to 2 km (1.24 miles) in length.

The rear panel of the switches and expansion modules have latches for installation on either a DIN rail or a wall, as shown in the following figure. The latches slide outward to position the switch over the DIN rail and slide inward to secure the switch to a DIN rail. The feet must be extended when mounting the switch on heavy-duty (35 x 15mm) DIN rail or they may be extended for improved ventilation when wall mounting.

Chapter 1

Cabling

100BASE-TX traffic requires Category 5 cable. 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or Category 4 cables.

When connecting the switch to workstations, servers, and routers, straight-through cables are normally used. However, the automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (auto-MDIX) feature of the switch is enabled by default and will automatically re-configure the ports to use either straight-through or crossover cable type.

Auto-MDIX Feature

The Auto-MDIX feature is enabled by default. When the auto-MDIX feature is enabled, the switch detects the required cable type (straight-through or crossover) for copper Ethernet connections and configures the interfaces accordingly.

You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to disable the auto-MDIX feature. See the online help for more information.

ATTENTION

The input voltage source of the alarm circuits must be an isolated source and limited to less than or equal to 50Vdc, 1A.

For wire connections to the power and relay connector, you must use UL and CSA rated, style 1007 or 1569 twisted-pair copper appliance wiring material (AWM) wire (such as Belden part number 9318).

To wire the switch to an external alarm device, follow these steps:

1. Measure two strands of twisted-pair wire (18...20 AWG) long enough to

connect to the external alarm device.

2. Use a wire stripper to remove the casing from both ends of each wire to

6.3 mm (0.25 in.) ± 0.5 mm (0.02 in.).

IMPORTANT

Do not strip more than 6.8 mm (0.27 in.) of insulation from the wires. Stripping more than the recommended amount of wire can leave exposed wire from the power and relay connector after installation.

3. Insert the exposed wires for the external alarm device into the two

connections labeled A, as shown in the following figure.

Set Up the Switch Initially with Express Setup

When you first set up the switch, use Express Setup to enter the initial IP address. Doing this enables the switch to be used as a managed switch. You can then access the switch through the IP address for additional configuration.

You need this equipment to set up the switch:

• A personal computer with Windows 2000, Windows Vista, Windows 2003, or XP operating system installed.

• A web browser (Internet Explorer 6.0, Internet Explorer 7.0, or Firefox

2.0) with JavaScript enabled.

• A straight-through or crossover Category 5 Ethernet cable to connect your personal computer to the switch.

Do the following to configure your computer:

• Disable any wireless interface running on your personal computer.

• Disable other networks in your system.

• Set up the DHCP protocol for Auto IP, not static.

• Disable the static DNS server.

• Disable browser proxy settings.

Typically, browser settings are located in Tools>Internet Options>Connections>LAN Settings.

Follow these steps to run Express Setup.

1. Make sure that at least one switch Ethernet port is available for Express

Setup.

IMPORTANT

During Express Setup, the switch acts as a DHCP server. If your personal computer has a static IP address, change your personal computer settings before you begin to temporarily use DHCP.

2. Apply power to the switch.

When the switch powers on, it begins the power-on self-test (POST). During POST, the status indicators flash while a series of tests verify that the switch functions properly. Wait for the switch to complete POST, which takes approximately 3 minutes.

Do not use the console port for Express Setup.

Verify Switch Operation

Connect a Computer or a Terminal to the Console Port

Before installing the switch in its final location, you should power on the switch and verify that the switch passes the power-on self-test (POST). These sections describe the steps required to connect a personal computer or terminal to the switch console port, to power on the switch, and to observe POST results.

•

Connect a Computer or a Terminal to the Console Port, page 62

• Run a Power-on Self-test (POST), page 63

To connect a computer to the console port, use the supplied RJ45-to-DB-9 adapter cable. To connect a terminal to the console port, you need to provide an RJ45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter. For console-port and adapter-pinout information, see Chapter 4, Cable and Connectors

WARNING

To verify switch operation, perform POST on the switch in a nonhazardous location before installation.

The computer or terminal must support VT100 terminal emulation. The terminal-emulation software—frequently a computer application such as HyperTerminal—makes communication between the switch and your computer or terminal possible during the POST.

Follow these steps to connect the computer or terminal to the switch.

1. Make sure that your terminal-emulation software is configured to

communicate with the switch using hardware flow control.

2. Configure the communication rate and data format of the personal

computer or terminal to match these console-port default characteristics.

Run a Power-on Self-test (POST)

Verify POST Results

When the switch powers on, it automatically initiates a POST. The POST runs a series of tests that verify that the switch functions properly and assures that it is ready to install.

To test the switch, follow these steps.

1. Apply power to the switch.

Verify POST Results, page 63.

3. Disconnect Power, page 64.

When you apply power the switch, it automatically begins a series of self tests (POST). During a POST, you see the following.

• All status indicators are off for a few seconds.

• Each status indicator is tested. One at a time, the EIP Mod, EIP Net,

Setup, Pwr A, and Pwr B status indicators each briefly display green, then red, and then go off.

• The EIP Mod status indicator then blinks green as the boot loader verifies the basic functionality of the processing and memory hardware.

• Assuming all tests pass, the EIP Mod status indicator blinks green as the software image loads.

• If the POST fails, the EIP Mod status indicator turns red.

ATTENTION

POST failures are usually fatal. Contact your Rockwell Automation representative immediately if your switch does not pass POST.

Disconnect Power

Install and Remove SFP Modules

After successfully running POST, follow these steps.

1. Turn off power to the switch.

2. Disconnect the cables.

3. Decide where you want to install the switch.

These sections describe how to install and remove Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) modules. SFP modules are inserted into SFP module slots on the front of the switch. These field-replaceable modules provide the uplink optical interfaces, send (TX) and receive (RX).

TIP

Use only Rockwell Automation SFP modules on the switch. Each SFP module has an internal serial EEPROM that is encoded with security information. This encoding identifies and validates that the module meets the requirements for the switch.

SFP modules can be installed and removed under power.

You can use any combination of SFP modules. Each SFP module must be of the same type as the SFP module (or connection type, if an SFP module is not installed) on the other end of the cable, and the cable must not exceed the stipulated cable length for reliable communications. See Fiber-Optic SFP

Module Port Cabling Specifications table on page 80 for cable stipulations for

SFP module connections.

Install SFP Modules into SFP Module Slots

The following figure shows an SFP Module with a bale-clasp latch.

Obtain Troubleshooting Information

Verify Switch POST Results

The status indicators on the front panel provide troubleshooting information about the switch. They show power-on self-test (POST) failures, port-connectivity problems, and overall switch performance. You can also ge t statistics from the browser interface, the command-line interface (CLI), or a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) workstation.

As power is applied to the switch, it begins the POST, a series of tests that runs automatically to ensure that the switch functions properly. It might take several minutes for the switch to complete POST.

POST starts with status indicator tests that cycle once through the EIP Mod, EIP Net, Setup, Pwr A, and Pwr B status in dicators. While POST proceeds, the E IP Mod status indicator blinks green, and all the other status indicators remain off.

If POST completes successfully, the System status indicator changes to solid green, and the other status indicators display their n ormal operating status. If th e switch fails POST, the System status indicator turns red.

ATTENTION

POST failures are usually fatal. Contact your Rockwell Automation technical support representative if your switch does not pass POST.

Bad or Damaged Cable

Always make sure that the cable does not have marginal damage or failure. A cable might be just good enough to connect at the physical layer, but it could corrupt packets as a result of subtle damage to the wiring or connectors.

70 Publication 1783-UM002C-EN-P - April 2009

Page 71

Chapter 3

This situation is likely when the port has many packet errors or the port constantly loses and regains the link. You should:

• Swap the copper or fiber-optic cable with a known, good cable.

• Look for broken, bent, or missing pins on cable connectors.

• Rule out any bad patch panel connections or media convertors between

the source and destination.

If possible, bypass the patch panel, or eliminate faulty media convertors (fiber-optic-to-copper).

• Try the cable in another port or interface, if possible, to see if the problem follows the cable.

Ethernet and Fiber Cables

Make sure that you have the correct cable type for the connection.

• Use Category 3 copper cable for 10 Mb/s UTP connections.

• Category 5, 5e, or 6 UTP or STP cable may be used for 10/100 Mbps

connections.

• For 1000 Mbps (1 gigabit per second) connections, use either Category 5e or Category 6 UTP or STP cable.

• For fiber-optic connectors, verify that you have the correct cable for the distance and the port type.

• Make sure that the connected device ports both match and use the same type encoding, optical frequency, and fiber type.

Chapter 3

Link Status

Verify that both sides have a network link. A single broken wire or one shut down port can cause one side to show a link, but not the other side.

A Link status indicator does not guarantee that the cable is fully functional. The cable might have encountered physical stress that causes it to function at a marginal level.

If the Link status indicator for the port is not lit, do the following.

• Connect the cable from the switch to a known good device.

• Make sure that both ends of the cable are connected to the correct

ports.

• Verify that both devices have power.

• Verify that you are using the correct cable type.

• Rule out loose connections. Sometimes a cable appears to be seated, but

is not. Disconnect the cable, and then reconnect it.

Transceiver Issues

Check these items.

• Bad or incorrect SFP module.

Exchange the suspect module with a known good module. Verify that the module is supported on this platform.

• Use the CLI show interfaces command or the CLI show int status command to verify the port or module error-disabled or shutdown status. Re-enable the port if needed.

• Make sure that all fiber connections are properly cleaned and securely connected.

Chapter 3

Port and Interface Settings

A cause of port connectivity failure can be a disabled port. Verify that the port or interface is not disabled or powered down for some reason. If a port or interface is manually shut down on one side of the link or the other si de, the link does not come up until you re-enable the port. Use the CLI show interfaces privileged EXEC command to ver ify the port or interface error-disabled, disabled, or shutdown status on both sides of the connection. If needed, re-enable the port or the interface.

Verify Switch Performance

Review this section when troubleshooting switch performance problems.

Speed, Duplex, and Autonegotiation

If the port statistics show a large amount of alignment errors, frame check sequence (FCS), or late-collisions errors, this might indicate a speed or duplex mismatch.

A common issue with speed and duplex occurs when the duplex settings are mismatched between two switches, between a switch and a router, or between the switch and a workstation or server. This can happen when manually setting the speed and duplex or from autonegotiation issues between the two devices. A mismatch occurs under these circumstances:

• A manually set speed or duplex parameter is different from the manually set speed or duplex parameter on the connected port.

• A port is set to autonegotiate, and the connected port is set to full duplex with no autonegotiation.

To maximize switch performance and ensure a link, follow one of these guidelines when changing the settings for duplex and speed:

• Let both ports autonegotiate both speed and duplex.

• Manually set the same speed and duplex parameters for the ports on

both ends of the connection to the same values.

• If a remote device does not autonegotiate, configure the duplex settings on the two ports to the same values.

The speed parameter can adjust itself even if the connected port does not autonegotiate.

Publication 1783-UM002C-EN-P - April 2009 73

Page 74

Chapter 3

Autonegotiation and Network Interface Cards (NICs)

Problems sometimes occur between the switch and third-party network interface cards (NICs). By default, the switch ports and interfaces are set to autonegotiate. It is common for devices like laptops or other devices to be set to autonegotiate as well, yet sometimes autonegotation issues occur.

To troubleshoot autonegotiation problems, try manually setting both sides of the connection. If this does not solve the problem, there could be a problem with the firmware or software on your NIC. You can resolve this by upgrading the NIC driver to the latest version available from the manufacturer.

Cabling Distance

If the port statistics show excessive FCS, late-collision, or alignment errors, verify that the cable distance from the switch to the connected device meets the recommended guidelines. See Chapter 4, Cable and Connectors cabling guidelines.

Connect to 10BASE-T- and 100BASE-TX-Compatible Devices

When connecting the ports to 10BASE-T- and 100BASE-TX-compatible devices, such as servers, workstations, and routers, you can use a two or four twisted-pair, straight-through cable wired for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX.

To identify a crossover cable, compare the two modular ends of the cable. Hold the cable ends side-by-side, with the tab at the back. The wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left plug should be a different color from the wire connected to the pin on the inside of the right plug.

The following figures show these schematics:

• two twisted-pair, straight-through cable

• four twisted-pair, straight-through cable
