Wiring Requirements

WARNING Do not disconnect modules or wires unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non hazardous.

The devices may only be connected to the supply voltage shown on the type plate.

The devices are designed for operation with a safety extra-low voltage. Thus, they may only be connected to the supply voltage connections and to the signal contact with the safety extra-low voltages (SELV) in compliance with

IEC950/ EN60950/ VDE0805.

WARNING

Substitution of components may impair suitability for Class

I, Division 2 and Zone 2.

These devices must be supplied by a SELV source as defined in the Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC and 93/68/EEC.

WARNING This equipment has been evaluated as EEx nC IIC T4 equipment under DEMKO Certificate No. 03 ATEX

0324537U. Each module is marked with II 3G and is suitable for use in Zone 2 Explosive Atmospheres. Devices must be installed in a minimum IP 54 enclosure as defined in

IEC 60529 and EN 60529.

ATTENTION This unit is a built-in type. During installation into certain end equipment, it must comply with fire enclosure stipulations of IEC 60950/EN60950, or similar statements.

ATTENTION

Safety First!

Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your Moxa Industrial Media Converter.

ATTENTION

Safety First!

Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical codes dictating the maximum current allowable for each wire size.

If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.

- 7 -

You should also pay attention to the following points:

 Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point.

NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

 You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb is that wiring that shares similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.

 Keep input wiring and output wiring separated.

 It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system when necessary.

Grounding Moxa Industrial Media

Converter

Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.

ATTENTION This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface such as a metal panel.

Wiring the Alarm Contact

The Alarm Contact is made up of the two middle contacts of the terminal block on IMC’s top panel. Refer to the next section for detailed instructions on how to connect the wires to the terminal block connector, and how to attach the terminal block connector to the terminal block receptor.

In this section, we explain the meaning of the two contacts used to connect the

Alarm Contact.

STEP 1: Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the V-/V+ terminals.

STEP 2: To keep the DC wires from pulling loose, use a small flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the wire-clamp screws on the front of the terminal block connector.

STEP 3: Insert the plastic terminal block connector prongs into the terminal block receptor, which is located on IMC’s top panel.

ATTENTION

Before connecting IMC to the DC power inputs, make sure the DC power source voltage is stable.

Communication Connections

IMC-101 models have one 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet port, and one 100BaseFX

(SC or ST type connector) fiber port.

10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection

The 10/100BaseT(X) ports located on IMC’s front panel are used to connect to

100BaseFX Ethernet Port Connection

The concept behind the SC port and cable is quite straightforward. Suppose you are connecting devices I and II. Contrary to electrical signals, optical signals do not require a circuit in order to transmit data. Consequently, one of the optical lines is used to transmit data from device I to device II, and the other optical line is used transmit data from device II to device I, for full-duplex transmission.

All you need to remember is to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device I to the

Rx (receive) port of device II, and the Rx (receive) port of device I to the Tx

(transmit) port of device II. If you are making your own cable, we suggest labeling the two sides of the same line with the same letter (A-to-A and B-to-B, as shown below, or A1-to-A2 and B1-to-B2).

Redundant Power Inputs

Both power inputs can be connected simultaneously to live DC power sources.

If one power source fails, the other live source acts as a backup, and automatically supplies all of Moxa Industrial Media Converter’s power needs.

Alarm Contact

Moxa Industrial Media Converter has one Alarm Contact located on the top panel. For detailed instructions on how to connect the Alarm Contact power wires to the two middle contacts of the 6-contact terminal block connector, see the “Wiring the Alarm Contact” section above. A typical scenario would be to connect the Fault circuit to a warning light located in the control room. The light can be set up to switch on when a fault is detected.

The Alarm Contact has two terminals that form a Fault circuit for connecting to an alarm system. The two wires attached to the Fault contacts form an open circuit when (1) IMC has lost power from one of the DC power inputs, or (2) one of the ports for which the corresponding PORT ALARM Dip Switch is set to ON is not properly connected.

If neither of these two conditions occurs, the Fault circuit will be closed.

Auto MDI/MDI-X Connection

The Auto MDI/MDI-X function allows users to connect Moxa Industrial Media

Converter’s 10/100BaseTX ports to any kind of Ethernet device, without paying attention to the type of Ethernet cable being used for the connection.

This means that you can use either a straight-through cable or cross-over cable to connect IMC to Ethernet devices.

Dual Speed Functionality and

Switching

Moxa Industrial Media Converter’s 10/100 Mbps RJ45 switched port auto negotiates with the connected device for the fastest data transmission rate supported by both devices. All models of Moxa Industrial Media Converter are plug-and-play devices, so that software configuration is not required at installation, or during maintenance. The half/full duplex mode for the RJ45 switched ports is user dependent and changes (by auto-negotiation) to full or half duplex, depending on which transmission speed is supported by the attached device.

Auto-Negotiation and Speed Sensing

All of Moxa Industrial Media Converter’s RJ45 Ethernet ports independently support auto-negotiation for transmission speed in the 10BaseT and

100BaseTX modes, with operation according to the IEEE 802.3u standard.

This means that some nodes could be operating at 10 Mbps, while at the same time, other nodes are operating at 100 Mbps.

Auto-negotiation takes place when an RJ45 cable connection is made, and then each time a LINK is enabled. Moxa Industrial Media Converter advertises its capability for using either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps transmission speeds, with the device at the other end of the cable expected to advertise similarly. Depending on what type of device is connected, this will result in agreement to operate at a speed of either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.

If a Moxa Industrial Media Converter RJ45 Ethernet port is connected to a non-negotiating device, it will default to 10 Mbps speed and half-duplex mode, as required by the IEEE 802.3u standard.
