No link activity Communication Ports Receive and transmit data, as well as provide access to the RUGGEDCOM ROS Web interface. For more information about the various ports available for the RUGGEDCOM RS400, refer to Chapter 4, Communication Ports. RS-232 Console Port The serial console port is for interfacing directly with the device and accessing initial management functions.
Siemens also does not recommend using copper Ethernet ports to interface with devices in the field across distances that could produce high levels of ground potential rise (i.e. greater than 2500 V), during line-to-ground fault conditions.
Chapter 1 RUGGEDCOM RS400 Introduction Installation Guide Section 1.5 Decommissioning and Disposal Proper decomissioning and disposal of this device is important to prevent malicious users from obtaining proprietary information and to protect the environment. Decommissioning This device may include sensitive, proprietary data. Before taking the device out of service, either permanently or for maintenance by a third-party, make sure it has been fully decommissioned.
Installation Guide Installing the Device Installing the Device This section describes how to install and connect to the RUGGEDCOM RS400. WARNING! Radiation hazard – risk of serious personal injury. This product contains a laser system and is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Mounting the Device The RUGGEDCOM RS400 is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility. It can be equipped with connectors that allow it to be installed in a 48 cm (19 in) rack, 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail, or directly on a panel.
Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail For DIN rail installations, the RUGGEDCOM RS400 can be equipped with panel/DIN rail adapters pre-installed on each side of the chassis. The adapters allow the device to be slid onto a standard 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail.
Section 2.3.3 Mounting the Device to a Panel For panel installations, the RUGGEDCOM RS400 can be equipped with panel/DIN rail adapters pre-installed on each side of the chassis. The adapters allow the device to be attached to a panel using screws.
Control of the failsafe relay output is configurable through ROS. One common application for this relay is to signal an alarm if a power failure occurs. For more information, refer to the ROS User Guide for the RUGGEDCOM RS400. The following shows the proper relay connections.
1. Normally Closed 2. Common 3. Normally Open Section 2.5 Grounding the Device The RUGGEDCOM RS400 chassis ground terminal uses a #6-32 screw. It is recommended to terminate the ground connection with a #6 ring lug and torque it to 1.7 N·m (15 lbf·in). Figure 6: Chassis Ground Connection 1. Stainless Steel Stud ...
RUGGEDCOM RS400 Chapter 2 Installation Guide Installing the Device • Use only #16 gage copper wiring when connecting terminal blocks. • A circuit breaker is not required for 12, 24 or 48 VDC rated equipment. • Power input terminals have reverse polarity protection for 12, 24 and 48 VDC rated equipment.
Chapter 2 RUGGEDCOM RS400 Installing the Device Installation Guide Connect the ground terminal on the power source to the chassis ground terminal on the device. For more information, refer to Section 2.5, “Grounding the Device”. Section 2.6.2 Connecting DC Power To connect a high or low DC power supply to the device, do the following: CAUTION! Electrical hazard –...
Connecting to the Device The following describes the various methods for accessing the ROS console and Web interfaces on the device. For more detailed instructions, refer to the ROS User Guide for the RUGGEDCOM RS400. Serial Console Port Connect a PC or terminal directly to the serial console port to access the boot-time control and ROS console interface.
Chapter 3 RUGGEDCOM RS400 Device Management Installation Guide Communication Ports Connect any of the available Ethernet ports on the device to a management switch and access the ROS console and Web interfaces via the device's IP address. For more information about available ports, refer to Chapter 4,...
Communication Ports Communication Ports The RUGGEDCOM RS400 can be equipped with various types of communication ports to enhance its abilities and performance. To determine which ports are equipped on the device, refer to the factory data file available through ROS. For more information on how to access the factory data file, refer to the ROS User Guide for the RUGGEDCOM RS400.
Section 4.1 Copper Ethernet Ports The RUGGEDCOM RS400 supports several 10/100Base-TX Ethernet ports that allow connection to standard Category 5 (CAT-5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables with RJ45 male connectors. The RJ45 connectors are directly connected to the chassis ground on the device and can accept CAT-5 shielded twisted-pair (STP) cables.
Section 4.3 Modem Port The RUGGEDCOM RS400 can optionally be equipped with a V.90 Modem connection for PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) connections. For information about how to configure and operate the modem, refer to the ROS User Guide for the RUGGEDCOM RS400.
Section 4.4 Serial Ports The RUGGEDCOM RS400 supports RJ45 or DB9 serial ports, which can be run in RS232, RS485 or RS422 mode. NOTE On power-up, all serial ports default to RS485 mode. Each port can be individually set to RS232, RS485 or RS422 mode through ROS.
Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) device, such as a PC, a straight-through serial cable (3 pin or 9 pin) is required. When communicating with an another DCE device, such as another RUGGEDCOM RS400, the RX and TX pins must be crossed-over using, for example, a NULL modem cable.
Section 4.4.3 Serial RS232/RS485/RS422 RJ45 Ports The RUGGEDCOM RS400 can be equipped with serial RS232/RS485/RS422 RJ45 ports. Each port can be set individually through the ROS operating system to operate in RS232, RS485 or RS422 mode. For more information, refer to the ROS User Guide for the RUGGEDCOM RS400.
