Step 3: Set up the computer’s IP address Set an IP address for the computer so that it is on the same subnet as that of the TAP-213. Since the TAP-213’s default IP address is 192.168.127.253, and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, set the IP address of the computer in the 192.168.127.xxx IP range and subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.

Mounting Dimensions Unit: mm (inch) Wall Mounting In most applications, wall mounting the TAP-213 is the most commonly used method, which makes installation easier as illustrated below: STEP 1: Attach the wall-mounting plates with M4 screws. - 5 -...
STEP 2: Mounting the TAP-213 to a wall requires 4 screws. Use the TAP-213 device, with wall-mounting plates attached, as a guide to mark the correct locations of the 4 screws. The heads of the screws should be 6.0 mm in diameter, and the shafts should be less than 3.5 mm in diameter, as shown in the figure at the right.

Pole Mounting (Optional) You might find it more convenient to mount the TAP-213 on a pole for some applications, as illustrated below. The edges of the iron rings that are part of the pole-mounting kit are sharp. We suggest that you wear gloves to protect your hands during the installation process.
WARNING • This equipment is intended to be used in a Restricted Access Location, such as a dedicated computer room where access can only be gained by SERVICE PERSONS or by USERS who have been instructed about the fact that the metal chassis of the equipment is extremely hot and may cause burns.
ATTENTION This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Unit marked “Class 2” or “LPS” and rated O/P: 24 to 110 VDC, 15 W (max.) ATTENTION Make sure the external power adapter (includes power cords and plug assemblies) provided with the unit is certified and suitable for use in your country.
ATTENTION Before connecting the TAP-213 to the DC power inputs, make sure the DC power source voltage is stable. Communication Connections 10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection The TAP-213 has a 10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet port (LAN1 8-pin shielded M12 X-coded connector). The 10/100/1000TX port located on the front panel is used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices.
NOTE When using a fiber optic small-form pluggable (SFP) module, ensure it is a IEC 60825-1 certified and Class 1 Laser Product. USB Storage Connection The TAP-213 has one USB storage port (5-pin female M12 A-coded) on the front panel. Use the Moxa ABC-02-USB-T automatic backup configurator to connect to the TAP's USB storage port for configuration backup, firmware upgrade, or system log file backup.
