Fieldbus Gateway

Installation

2

2.1

Installation Guidelines

The following guidelines are provided to optimize the device performance. Review the guidelines before installing the device.

 Make sure cabling is away from sources of electrical noise. Radios, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures can interference with the device performance.

 Make sure the cabling is positioned away from equipment that can damage the cables.



Operating environment is within the ranges listed range, see “Specifications” on page 2.

 Relative humidity around the fieldbus gateway does not exceed 95 percent

(noncondensing).

 Altitude at the installation site is not higher than 10,000 feet.

 In 10/100 and 10/100/1000 fixed port devices, the cable length from the fieldbus gateway to connected devices cannot exceed 100 meters (328 feet).

 Make sure airflow around the fieldbus gateway and respective vents are unrestricted. Without proper airflow, the fieldbus gateway can overheat. To prevent performance degradation and damage to the fieldbus gateway, make sure there is clearance at the top and bottom and around the exhaust vents.

2.1.1

Connecting Hardware

In this instruction, it will explain how to find a proper location for your Fieldbus

Gateways, and how to connect to the network, hock up the power cable, and connect to the EKI-1242 Series.

2.2

Verifying Fieldbus Gateway Operation

Before installing the device in a rack or on a wall, power on the fieldbus gateway to verify that the fieldbus gateway passes the power-on self-test (POST). To connect

the cabling to the power source see “Power Supply Installation” on page 25.

At startup (POST), the System LED blinks green, while the remaining LEDs are a solidy green. Once the fieldbus gateway passes POST self-test, the System LED turns green. The other LEDs turn off and return to their operating status. If the fieldbus gateway fails POST, the System LED fieldbus gateways to an amber state.

After a successful self-test, power down the fieldbus gateway and disconnect the power cabling.

The fieldbus gateway is now ready for installation on its final location.


2.3

Installing the Fieldbus Gateway

2.3.1
