Hardware Installation
You can use the following subsections to install the RocketLinx ES8105/ES8105F:
•
Connecting the Power and Ground
•
Wiring the Relay Output
•
Enabling the Event Alarm
•
Mounting the RocketLinx ES8105/ES8105F
•
Connecting the Ethernet Ports
•
Connecting the Fiber Port (RocketLinx ES8105F)
Connecting the Power and Ground
Use the following procedure to connect the power and the ground.
1.
Insert the positive and negative wires (12-24AWG) into V+ and V- contacts.
2.
Tighten the wire-clamp screws to prevent the wires from coming loose.
Note: Power should be disconnected from the power supply before connecting it to the
switch. Otherwise, your screwdriver blade can inadvertently short your terminal
connections to the grounded enclosure.
3.
Connect a ground wire between the chassis and earth ground using 12-24AWG wire to
ensure that the RocketLinx ES8105/ES8105F is not damaged by noise or electrical shock.
a.
Loosen the earth ground screw that is located between the DIP switch and the power/
relay terminal block.
b.
Tighten the screw after the earth ground wire is connected.
Wiring the Relay Output
The RocketLinx ES8105/ES8105F have a built-in alarm-relay for port link and power
events notifications. The relay contacts are normally open and remain open when
there is no failure event. The relay contacts will close when there is a failure event to
notify.
The failure events are selectable and enabled using the DIP switch on the ES8105/
ES8105F. The relay contacts of RocketLinx ES8105/ES8105F are rated for a
maximum of 1A at 24VDC.
Wiring the alarm relay output is the same as wiring power inputs in
Power and
Ground.
1.
Insert positive and negative wires into V+ and V-.
2.
Tighten the wire-clamp screws to prevent the wires from coming loose.
Enabling the Event Alarm
You can use this subsection to configure and enable the event alarm to alert maintenance engineers once a system event has
occurred. The RocketLinx ES8105/ES8105F is equipped with one dry relay output for port link failure.
