Red Lion I/O Tool Kit The Red Lion I/O Tool Kit is a configuration, calibration and maintenance tool for Red Lion hardware. It is the preferred method of configuring I/O modules when the module will be an integral part of a Red Lion project under the control of a Red Lion RTU or process controller.
Use the Test I/O window in the I/O Tool Kit software or the Web Server to verify proper I/O operation of all Red Lion stations. Refer to the I/O Tool Kit or web server on-line help system for further instructions.
® ® EtherTRAK 2 and Etherbus Dual Ethernet I/O Module USB Installation Instructions To use the USB please follow the instructions below. Run the sxusb.exe install The USB driver will automatically be installed when the Tool Kit configuration utility is installed. Connect the Dual Ethernet module to the PC Once the USB device is connected the hardware installation wizard will appear.
Page 23
® ® EtherTRAK 2 and Etherbus Dual Ethernet I/O Module The computer will locate the driver and confirm that you would like to install the unverified driver. Select “Continue Anyway” and click finish to complete the installation. View the USB COM port number To view the COM port the USB device has been assigned to, open the Windows Device Manager.
Be sure to allow ample space between DIN rails for wire ducts. For most EtherTRAK-2 base I/O and power screw terminal sizes used on Red Lion products are M3 and can support wire sizes of 30-12AWG. The recommended torque is 5 IN/LB.
® ® EtherTRAK 2 and Etherbus Dual Ethernet I/O Module Replacing the logic module The logic module can be removed from the base in a system that is powered on (hot-swap). The module maybe removed and replaced with another one for troubleshooting or repair/replacement purposes. To remove the module first open the lock tabs on the top and bottom of the module as show in the picture below.
® ® EtherTRAK 2 and Etherbus Dual Ethernet I/O Module Jumper Settings Setting the Network Jumper This jumper sets the network configuration for the two (“dual”) Ethernet ports. Network Mode Jumper Location The Network Mode jumper is located on the wiring base assembly. To locate the jumper, you must first remove the I/O module from the wiring base.
Page 27
® ® EtherTRAK 2 and Etherbus Dual Ethernet I/O Module Network Mode This jumper sets network configuration for the two (or “dual”) Ethernet ports on the base. One of three modes can be set: Pass-thru (Ethernet An unmanaged switch in the module passes Ethernet traffic Message Pass-thru) between the ports.
® ® EtherTRAK 2 and Etherbus Dual Ethernet I/O Module Setting the DI COM Jumper The Discrete Input Common (“DI COM”) jumper sets a select number of discrete input circuits as either “Sourcing” or “Sinking” on certain types of modules only (as listed below). All 32 inputs are Sourcing (by default) and the first 8 channels can be Sinking (by jumper).
Page 29
® ® EtherTRAK 2 and Etherbus Dual Ethernet I/O Module Determine Sinking or Sourcing Mode The default jumper setting is sourcing (jumper to “DC–“) which is appropriate for most situations in which a positive voltage is applied to an input to indicate an "ON" condition. Select Sinking (jumper to “DC+”) for "ON" inputs corresponding to ground closures that require a positive reference as an opposing return connection.
® ® EtherTRAK 2 and Etherbus Dual Ethernet I/O Module RS485 Jumper on the E2-MIX20884-D base On the E2-MIX20884-D module has a jumper to set the RS485 termination instead of the “TERM” screw terminal on the other EtherTRAK-2 bases. The “storage” position should be used when termination is not required on the RS485 port. When a termination is used on the RS485 network and the EtherTRAK-2 is one of the end points the jumper should be put into the “termination”...
(2 Amp) or ST-PS-024-05 (5 Amp). Current Requirements To calculate the supply current requirements, add the wattage required for the Red Lion and other units in use. Next, divide the total wattage by the DC power source voltage. Then, add any current needed for user instrumentation loops and output loads.
® ® EtherTRAK 2 and Etherbus Dual Ethernet I/O Module Etherbus PoE Option Etherbus I/O provides the capability to utilize Power over Ethernet (PoE) to power the I/O module and associated instrumentation directly from the Ethernet cable. Etherbus PoE Power – PoE power supplied to Ethernet port #1 will power the module’s intelligence, communication and input channels as well as supply +24 VDC power for external loads.
