If the LED is flashing, there is a problem with the CPU.

Lights when a network connection is present.

Expansion In/Expansion Out ports. These ports are named E-in and

E-out. The E-in port connects to your ServSensor V4E base unit via a

CAT5e straight-through cable. The E-out port is used to daisychain additional expansion modules via a CAT5e straight-through cable.

LEDs numbered 1–16 indicate the connectivity status of the sensors connected to each port. These LEDs also indicate system status during various operations.

Function

Table 2-2. Status/Online LED functions.

Description

Upgrade in progress The red LEDs will move from left to right to indicate activity, and the green LEDs indicate overall progress of the upgrade. When all the red lights are off and all the green lights are on, the upgrade/recovery process is complete.

Unit is operating in safe mode Used when the ServSensor EXP DC16 loads the operating system (OS) with a minimal set of drivers. If your device enters safe mode after rebooting, contact Black Box Technical

Support at 724-746-5500 or [email protected].

Unit is in recovery mode The ServSensor EXP DC16 may enter recovery mode if a firmware upgrade is incomplete.

3. Installation

3.1 Connecting to the Base Unit

To connect the ServSensor EXP DC16 to the ServSensor V4E, follow the steps listed below.

1. Connect the cable to your chosen port. See Figure 3-1.

Figure 3-1. E1 port.

2. Connect the other end to the “E-in” port. See Figure 3-2.

Figure 3-2. E-in port.

NOTE: Make sure that the 7.5 volt power supply is connected.

The expansion modules can be mounted in either a standard configuration or a daisychained configuration, as shown in Figures 3-3 and 3-4.

724-746-5500 | blackbox.com

Chapter 3: Installation

In the example shown in Figure 3-3, two expansion modules are connected from two separate expansion ports on the

ServSensor. In the example shown in Figure 3-4, the same two modules are connected to one expansion port in a daisychain configuration.

Figure 3-4. Daisychained configuration.

3.2 Setting up a Sensor (Standard Configuration)

This section describes the basic setup of a dry contact sensor in a standard configuration. It focuses on the dry contact sensor; however, this basic setup process applies to all compatible sensors. If you require information on specific functions of a particular sensor, then download the manual for that sensor from our Web site or locate it on your product CD.

1. Plug the sensor into one of the dry contact ports on the rear panel of the unit. In this example, we will use Port 1. See Figure

3-5.

Figure 3-5. Plug the temperature sensor into Port 1.

2. Type the IP address of the unit (default, 192.168.0.100) into your browser.

3. Log in as the administrator using your administrator password (the default is “public”). The Summary page will appear as shown in Figure 3-6.

3.3 Setting up a Sensor (Daisychained Configuration)

This section describes the basic setup of a sensor in a daisychained configuration. It focuses on the dry contact sensor; however, this basic setup process applies to all compatible sensors. If you require information on specific functions of a particular sensor, then download the manual for that sensor from our Web site or locate it on your product CD.

Connect the two modules together by following the instructions below:

1. Insert a straight-through CAT5 cable into the “E-out” port.

Figure 3-10. E-out port.

2. Insert the other end of the CAT5 cable into the “E-in” port.

Figure 3-11. E-in port.

NOTE: Make sure you also have a 7.5-volt power supply connected.

Chapter 3: Installation

3. When the unit is connected, the LEDs will enter the boot-up sequence indicating that the expansion module (EME1DC16) is communicating with your ServSensor V4E (EME134A).

4. Plug a sensor into one of the dry contact ports on the rear panel of the unit. In this example, we will use Port 1.

Figure 3-12. Plug sensor into Port 1.

5. After the unit is connected, access your Web interface, type the desired IP address into your browser and log in, and navigate to the summary page. Two boards will be displayed within the sensor information window as shown in Figure 3-13.

Figure 3-13. Sensor information window.

6. Click on the lower of the two boards and the sensors page will appear.

4.1 Adding a Notification

1. Login as the administrator.

2. Click the “Notification” tab.

3. Click the “Notification Wizard.” Figure 4-1 appears.

Figure 4-1. Notification Wizard tab.

4. The Notification Wizard page (see Figure 4-2) is displayed.

NOTE: Next you’ll see a sample notification. To learn what the other types of notifications do, refer to the separate notification manuals on your product CD.

4.2 SNMP Traps

Set up a notification via SNMP trap, so that when your sensor reaches a certain threshold it will send a notification to your SNMP server.

1. Log in as the administrator.

2. Click on the “Notifications” tab.

3. Choose “Notifications Wizard.”

4. Select “SNMP Trap.” The screen shown in Figure 4-3 appears.
