1. Make sure that the package is complete.
2. Check all the parts for transport damage.
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, solutions, machines, equipment and/or networks. They are
important components in a holistic industrial security concept. With this in mind, Siemens’
products and solutions undergo continuous development. Siemens recommends strongly
that you regularly check for product updates.
For the secure operation of Siemens products and solutions, it is necessary to take suitable
preventive action (e.g. cell protection concept) and integrate each component into a holistic,
state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Third-party products that may be in use should
also be considered. For more information about industrial security, visit

General safety notices relating to protection against explosion
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Safety notices when using the device according to Hazardous Locations (HazLoc)
Note the following safety notices. These relate to the entire working life of the device.
You should also read the safety notices relating to handling in the individual sections,
particularly in the sections "Installation" and "Connecting up".
DO NOT OPEN WHEN ENERGIZED.
If you use the device under HazLoc conditions you must also keep to the following safety
notices in addition to the general safety notices for protection against explosion:
This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D or nonhazardous locations only.
This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Zone 2, Group IIC or non-hazardous locations
only.
The product group SCALANCE XM-400 consists of basic devices (compact switches) and
extenders (port extenders).
The SCALANCE XM-400 basic devices are modular compact switches with fixed RJ-45
ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) and SFP transceiver slots that can be equipped individually. The
SFP transceiver slots are combo ports.
A SCALANCE XM-400 can manage a maximum of 24 ports with 10/100/1000 Mbps.
The following components exist only on the basic device:
● CPU
● Power supply
● Signaling contact
● Out-of-band port
● Serial interface
● "SELECT / SET" button
The basic devices can be expanded with additional ports by using an extender. The
extenders are connected to the side of the basic device. Each basic device has an
expansion interface on the right for port extenders.
Depending on the number of ports of the basic device (10/100/1000 Mbps) up to 2 port
extenders can be added. Further port extenders are not supplied with power. There is no
particular order in which the port extenders need to be added.
Example
● The basic device SCALANCE XM408-8C has 8 ports. It can therefore be expanded by 2
port extenders each with 8 ports.
● The basic device SCALANCE XM416-4C has 16 ports. It can therefore be expanded by
Port extenders function only in conjunction with a basic device.

2.2 Product overview
Port extenders are modular network components with RJ-45 ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) or
SFP transceiver slots. To the left they have an expansion interface to connect to the basic
device or to another port extender and to the right they have an expansion interface for
additional port extenders. Each port extender functions with every basic device.

Restart with the SELECT/SET button disabled for "Restore Factory Defaults"
Defining the fault mask
2.6 SELECT / SET button
If you have disabled the SELECT/SET button for "Restore Factory Defaults" in the
configuration, this does not apply during the startup phase. When you restart after cycling
power, the configuration can nevertheless be deleted using this button. This action cannot
be undone and you then need to reload the device configuration. This can lead to
disturbances and failures in the corresponding network area.
Using the fault mask, you specify an individual "good status" for the connected ports and the
power supply. Deviations from this status are displayed as errors/faults.
To define the fault mask, follow the steps below:
1. Switch to display mode D.
Display mode D is active if the "DM1" and "DM2" LEDs are lit green..
If another display mode is active, you will need to press the "SET/SELECT" button
repeatedly until the "DM1" and "DM2" LEDs are lit green.
2. Hold down the "SELECT/SET" button for 5 seconds.
After 2 seconds,the "DM1" and "DM2" LEDs start to flash for 3 seconds. At the same
time, the port LEDs go on one after the other.
After you have held down the button for 5 seconds, the current settings are stored as the
"good status".
If you release the button before the 5 seconds have elapsed, the previous fault mask will
be retained.
To enable/disable the redundancy manager, follow the steps below:
1. Switch to display mode B.
Display mode B is active if the "DM1" LED is lit green and the "DM2" LED is off..
If another display mode is active, you will need to press the "SET/SELECT" button
repeatedly until the "DM1" LED is lit green and the "DM2" LED is off.
2. Hold down the "SELECT/SET" button for 5 seconds.
After 2 seconds,the "DM1", "DM2" and "RM" LEDs start to flash for 3 seconds. At the
same time, the port LEDs go on one after the other.
If you release the button before the 5 seconds have elapsed, the action is canceled.
The result of the action depends on the initial situation:
–
The redundancy manager and media redundancy are disabled.
After enabling the redundancy manager, media redundancy is also enabled.
–
The redundancy manager and media redundancy are enabled.
After disabling the redundancy manager, media redundancy remains enabled.
