2.3 Safety guidelines

This device has been designed and tested in accordance with the safety regulations for electronic devices.
However, its trouble-free operation and reliability cannot be guaranteed unless the standard safety measures
and special safety advises given in this manual will be adhered to when using the device.

1. Trouble-free operation and reliability of the device can only be guaranteed if the device is not
subjected to any other climatic conditions than those stated under "Specification".
If the device is transported from a cold to a warm environment condensation may cause in a
failure of the function. In such a case make sure the device temperature has adjusted to the
ambient temperature before trying a new start-up.

2. If there is a risk whatsoever involved in running it, the device has to be switched off
immediately and to be marked accordingly to avoid re-starting.
Operator safety may be a risk if:

there is visible damage to the device
the device is not working as specified
the device has been stored under unsuitable conditions for a longer time

In case of doubt, please return device to manufacturer for repair or maintenance.

3. When connecting the device to other devices the connection has to be designed most
thoroughly as internal connections in third-party devices (e.g. connection GND with
protective earth) may lead to undesired voltage potentials that can lead to malfunctions or
destroying of the connected devices.
This device must not be run with a defective or damaged power supply unit.
Danger to life due to electrical shock!

4. Do not use these products as safety or emergency stop devices or in any other application
where failure of the product could result in personal injury or material damage.

5 Driver installation and configuration

5.1 Device configuration

The IP address will be assigned through DHCP. After the valid DHCP process the device is available in the
LAN. The drivers will automatically find all devices connected to the LAN with valid IP addresses.
When a static IP is desired, the tool “Device Server Setup” from the drivers CD has to be run. Here the
static IP address can be assigned.

5.2 Selection of the desired installation

The LAN 3100 has two different connection types:

Standard
Windows-Service

5.2.1 Standard

Here the connection to a device is done manually by a program. This is when more persons and different
PCs will connect to an EASYBus or to GMH handheld
devices.

Use the driver „SX Virtual Link“ from the drivers CD
Installation is done via double click. Then follow the

instructions on the screen.
The program will show you all devices available in the LAN.

Under the LAN 3100 the USB devices are shown. Via right
click in the context menu these USB devices can be
connected to the local PC, if there are any devices already
connected to other PCs this will also be shown. The USB
devices are connected as long as the program is running.

5.3 Windows-Service

This will connect automatically when windows starts up (no login is needed).
This is the preferred connection for software like
EASYControl net, virtual systems or servers.

Use the driver „SX Virtual Link Lite“ from the drivers CD
Installation is done via double click. Then follow the

instructions on the screen.
The program will show you all devices available in the LAN.

Under the LAN 3100 the USB devices are shown. When
checking the checkbox the selected USB device will be
connected to the PC, whenever the PC is running windows.

After a restart, this device will be reconnected automatically.
