INSTALLATION GUIDE
Introduction
®
The EISC-100T (EISC) configurable switch in the CTRLink
family
provides capabilities beyond those of standard Plug and Play (PnP)
Besides conventional features — auto-negotiation, 10/100
switches.
Mbps data rate, flow control, half- or full-duplex operation — the EISC
has advanced features such as VLAN, trunking, Quality of Service (QoS)
and a programmable fault relay that can be connected to a supervisory
system. Individual port parameters can be configured via a console port
®
attached to a Windows
-based workstation. Port status can also be
monitored through the console port using the Modbus protocol, making it
easy to interface the EISC with supervisory control equipment. These
features make the EISC one of the most versatile of Industrial Ethernet
switches available.
Configuration is accomplished via a console port connected to a
Windows-based configuration program included with the product.
Modbus protocol and register information is also provided so the switch
can be configured or monitored by a Modbus master device. Each port
parameter (data rate, duplex and flow control) can be pre-set via the
console port or set automatically via auto-negotiation. And a unique feature
displays the status (integrity) of the cable attached to any each port.
Each port automatically optimizes its data rate to 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps
— but data rate and duplex settings can be specified, if desired.
Each port negotiates flow control, but control can be disabled for
individual ports. The PAUSE function is supported for full-duplex links.
The backpressure scheme is used for half-duplex segments.
The EISC can be powered from wide-range, low-voltage
AC or DC sources and has provisions for either DIN-rail
or panel mounting.

  • Page 3 Installation Mounting The EISC is designed for mounting in an industrial enclosure or wiring closet using either set of the provided mounting hardware listed below: TS-35 DIN Rail Mounting Panel Mounting DIN rail clip Panel mounting bracket 4-40 screws, pan-head (2) 4-40 screws, flat-head (4) For quick snap-mounting onto TS-35 mm DIN rail, a DIN rail clip is pre-attached to the back of the enclosure with two #4-40 pan-head...
  • Page 4 Powering The EISC requires low-voltage power — AC or DC — via a removable keyed four-pin connector which accepts 16–18 AWG conductors. Consult the specifications for power requirements. Power options are explained below. NOTE: This device is intended for use with Class 2 circuits. DC Powered The EISC accepts a voltage range of 10–36 VDC and draws a maximum current value commensurate with 12-watt power consumption.
  • Page 5 AC Powered The EISC can be powered by an AC voltage in the range of 8–24 V capable of delivering 12 VA of apparent power. Two auxiliary power supplies are available as accessory items: The AI-XFMR is for 120 VAC. The AI-XFMR-E is for use with 230 VAC. Figure 4 —...
  • Page 6 Operation Switching The EISC uses an 8K-address look-up table augmented with 64 entries of Content Addressable Memory. A hashing algorithm is used to update the table. Addresses are aged in about 300 seconds. Runt packets (less than 64 bytes) and oversize packets (greater than 1536 bytes) are discarded.
