4.3 Considerations When Mounting the Device

4.3.1 General Installation Considerations

When planning an installation at least the following points shall be considered:

• Indoor: protecting for dust (to ensure heat dissipation), vandalism, animals (rats, birds etc)

• Outdoor: protecting for sun (to optimize ambient temperature range), dust, dirt, vandalism etc.

4.3.2 Temperature Alarms

This product has integrated temperature sensors for monitoring the internal device temperature. The limits for the
sensors are set so, that operation without alarm is ensured for ambient temperatures as specified for the product
assuming correct installation.

NOTICE: The limits have been set so that some of the components are close to the limit of the specified
temperature range. For this reason the unit shall not be operated in conditions where the temperature alarm is
activated.

4.3.3 Ambient Operating Temperature Range

This product includes a vent allowing controlled air exchange due to temperature changes. Humidity is blocked by
the vent.

To ensure correct operation over the whole specified temperature range, certain aspects need to be considered.
The limits are defined for installations with free air flow in the installation environment.
It shall be noted that in real environment:

• Limited air flow is rising the device temperature and may lower the upper limit of the operating temperature

range

• Conducted heat exchange through metal surfaces at the product fixing point is improving the device heat

transfer and improving the operating conditions

• Temperature is dependent on the operational parameters, like RF output power, amount of traffic

• This product has internal temperature sensors that will issue alarms for too high or too low temperature. The

operating conditions shall be ensured so that the normal operation does not cause temperature alarms. Any
temperature alarms shall be immediately rectified. See reference document [1] for detailed specification of the
temperature sensors alarms.

RT-310 / RT-320 User Guide

Page 19 (30)

4.3.4 Installations at Very High Temperatures

For installations, where the product is operated close to its maximum specified ambient temperature (+55°C
<TAmbient < +70°C), it must be ensured that the natural convection is not blocked by objects close to the product.

Figure 8 Installation with blocked airflow shall be
avoided

Figure 9 Installation with free airflow - good
installation

RT-310 / RT-320 User Guide

Page 20 (30)

When operating the device at ambient temperatures above app. +60C it is recommended to mount the device to a
metallic base plate t o improve the heat dissipation. The base plate increases the surface to spread the heat.

4.4 Connecting the System Grounding

There is a single grounding connect ion po int in RT-310/ RT-320. An M5 grounding screw at the housing is used
for grounding (see Figure 11).

NOTICE: The grounding is organized by connecting the grounding to the ground contact in the casing. For the
grounding at the ground contact (M5 stud), a short wire with a cross section of at least 6.0 mm

2

shall be used.

The grounding wire is set below the rip-lock washer. The nut is fixed for good reliable grounding contact. The
tightening torque of the nut shall be 2.0 Nm.

4.5 Connecting the RF Antenna Int e rf ace s

4.5.1 RF Antenna Interface Operation Modes

RT-310/RT-320 has three antenna interfaces. The antenna interfaces are operating independently of each other.

Antenna Function Operation Notes
A1 Antenna 1 is used for both transmitting

and receiving

The antenna A1 shall be used.

A2 Antenna 2 is used for both transmitting

and receiving

The antenna A2 can be enabled or disabled.

A3 Antenna 3 is used for both transmitting

and receiving

The antenna A3 can be enabled or disabled.

Table 14 RF Antenna interface operation

NOTICE: If antenna A2 and/or A3 will be NOT used in the customer application, the antenna connector MUST be
terminated with a 50 ohm termination.

NOTICE: The antenna interfaces are protected against lightning with special protection devices. To ensure correct
operation of these devices it is important, that the earth grounding contact is connected to protective earth as
described in chapter

4.4.

RT-310 / RT-320 User Guide

Page 22 (30)

4.5.2 RF Antenna Connectors

The antenna connectors are identified with the text markings A1 (Antenna 1), A2 (Antenna 2) and A3 (Antenna 3)
in the mechanics.

The antennas might be fixed in antenna connectors directly or using antenna cables fixed to the antenna
connectors.

Figure 12 Antenna interfaces

NOTICE: If one of the antennas is NOT used, the unused antenna connectors MUST be terminated with 50 ohm

termination.

4.6 Connecting Ethernet Inter f a c e

RT-310/RT-320 has two Ethernet interfac es. M12 industrial standard connector with keying is used. The Ethernet
connectors are identified with the text markings ETH1 (Ethernet 1) and ETH2 (Ethernet 2) in the mechanics.

Figure 13 Ethernet interfaces

The connectors should be assembled with correct torque (appr. 1.0 Nm, check connector manufacturer data)
NOTICE: Ethernet signals have a trans f ormer in the signal lines. There is no addition al l ine prot ec ti on f or Light ning

etc included at product hardware module.
NOTICE: The Ethernet Interface connector fulfills the IP66 protection when the cable plug or the dust cap is

connected. If the Ethernet function is not used in application, the protective dust cap must be closed.

4.6.1 Ethernet Port Features

The Ethernet port supports the following network standards:

Network Standard Description
10BASE-T Ethernet over two pairs of twisted wires

100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet over two pairs of twisted wires
1000BASE-TX Gigabit Ethernet ov er four pairs of twisted wires

Table 16 4.6.1 Ethernet port features

The Ethernet ports suppor t auto-negotiated 10 Mbps / 1 00 Mbps / 1000 Mbps operat ion. Automatic MDI/MDIX
crossover is supporte d for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T, 1000BASE-T operation. F or final installation the use of auto­negotiation is however not recommended.

5 Configuration and Use

The operation parameters in configuration files define the functionality. The complete configuration process is
described in reference document [1].

5.1 LED Indicators During Pow er Up Sequence

LED behavior during power-up sequence is described in reference document [1] in the chapter Status Indication.

Figure 15 Power, operation, status and Ethernet LEDs

5.2 Factory Reset Interface, Process for Factory Reset

A factory reset is not typically needed for installation. It is required if the device configuration is lost.
The factory reset functionality is included in both Ethernet port interfaces. The factory reset process is performed

using specific factory reset adapter.

5.2.1 Factory Reset Adapter Specification

The factory reset adapter is a special plug for the Ethernet interface that activates the factory reset signal.
There is a specific factory reset adapter available:
FACTORY RESET PLUG X -CODED

Part No.: 3623-0799

Figure 16 Factory reset plug X-coded

RT-310 / RT-320 User Guide

Page 28 (30)

5.2.2 Factory Reset Procedure

The Factory Reset is performed with a factory reset adapter that is connected to one of the Ethernet ports during
the start-up.

Step Description

1. Plug the factory reset adapter to one of the Ethernet interfaces.

2. Power the device

3. Wait until factory reset adapter is detected. This is indicated by an ORANGE operation L ED in

combination with a RED status LED

4. Remove factory reset adapter within 15 seconds

5. A successful initiation of a factory Reset is indicated by an ORANGE BLINKING operation LED in

combination with a RED BLINKING failure LED

Table 24 Factory reset procedure

After successful factory reset, the dust cap must be closed to ensure the IP requirements.
