INSTALLATION 2 DIN rail mounting Mounting the unit on the 35 mm horizontal DIN rail Removing the unit from the DIN rail 3 Cooling To avoid obstructing the airflow around the unit, the spacing must be at least 25 mm above and below, and 10 mm left and right.
INSTALLATION 4 Supply voltage IPL-C-400, IPL-CW-400 Minimum input voltage : 10 V DC IPL-C-230, IPL-CW-230 Maximum input voltage : 60 VDC IPL-C-260, IPL-CW-260 IPL-C-261, IPL-CW-261 IPL-C-220, IPL-CW-220 Minimum input voltage : 10 V DC Maximum input voltage : 30 VDC The consumption is lwer than 6 W.
INSTALLATION 7 RS485 connection (IPL-C-220 or IPL-CW-220) The RS485 serial interface is provided on the front panel 2 positions screw-block. It is not isolated. Long RS485 line or high data rate if the RS485 line is longer than10 meters or if the...
INSTALLATION 8 RS422 isolated interface (IPL-C-260 or IPL-CW-260) The RS422 interface is isolated. When two devices or more are connected to the RS422 interface of the IPL router, the IPL router must be the only device to transmit data ont the TX+/TX- line towards all the other devices.
INSTALLATION 9 RS485 isolated interface (IPL-C-261 or IPL-CW-261) The RS485 interface is isolated (3 wires : A- / B+ plus the common voltage wire). The polarisation and termination resistors can be selected with DIP switches. The polarisation résistors must be enabled by one device of the bus.
10.3 Coaxial cable If necessary, the antenna can be connected to the IPL-C router through a coaxial cable. The signal attenuation in a usual coaxial cable is 0.2 to 0.4 dB / m diameter , mm), that is to say 2 to 4 dB for a 10 meter long cable.
INSTALLATION 10.4 Cellular service subscription The router RAS is designed to connect to the LTE-UMTS-GPRS data transmission service like the one used by the tablets. The subscription should also provide the SMS service if SMS alarms are required. A telephone service subscription is not needed. One will take care to subscribe to a service authorizing the right volume of data per month (MB/month) and to check the price of the MB exceeding the limit of the subscription plan, if it exists.
INSTALLATION 10.6 Controlling the conformance of the connection After installing and setting up the router, control the conformance of the connection : Reception level The reception level must be better than -90 dBm (two flashes of the reception level led indicator). See the table below.
PREPARING THE SETUP 1 First setup from factory, the IP address of the router is 192.168.0.128. Step 1 : Create or modify the PC IP connection. Assign to the PC an IP @ in accordance with the router RAS IP address. For the first configuration, assign for instance 192.168.0.127 to the PC.
PREPARING THE SETUP 3 HTTPS set-up modifications through the WAN interface The administration web server is located at the LAN IP address. Coming from factory, access to the administration web server is not allowed through the WAN interface To use HTTPS instead of HTTP to setup the product or to authorise access to the administration web server through the WAN interface, ...
In a second step, any set stored inside the router and displayed with the Configurations table can be saved as an editable file stored outside the ETIC router. Inversely, a saved file can be loaded to the product Configurations table and then, if necessary, declared as the active set of parameters.
PREPARING THE SETUP 7 Configuration steps To configure the router, we advise to proceed as follows : Cellular interface setup LAN interface setup VPNs setup Routing and IP address translation functions setup Remote users connections, the user list and the access rights setup ...

MAINTENANCE 1.2 Network status To display the Interfaces status pages , Select The Diagnostic > Network status>Interfaces menu. The Interfaces page summarizes the current information of each interface of the router, like for instance : LAN interface : MAC and IP address Ethernet ports status …...
The Wifi scanner displays the main information about each WiFi network : MAC address of the access point, SSID, reception level. Remark : The WiFi interface of the ETIC router needs to be registered as a WiFi client interface. Page 39...
2 Firmware update The firmware update can be carried-out locally or remotely. If the firmware update operation do not succeed, for instance if the connection fails, the ETIC router restarts with the current firmware. Once the firmware update has been carried-out, the ETIC router restores the previous current set of parameters.
