Siemens also does not recommend using copper Ethernet ports to interface with devices in the field across distances that could produce high levels of ground potential rise (i.e. greater than 2500 V), during line-to-ground fault conditions.
This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Attempted service by unauthorized personnel shall render all warranties null and void. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Siemens Canada Ltd. could invalidate specifications, test results, and agency approvals, and void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Visually inspect each item in the package for any physical damage. Verify all items are included. Note If any item is missing or damaged, contact Siemens for assistance. Mounting the Device The RUGGEDCOM RS930L is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility.
Installing the Device 2.3.1 Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail Note For detailed dimensions of the device with either DIN rail or panel hardware installed, refer to "Dimension Drawings" (Page 27). 2.3.1 Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail The RUGGEDCOM RS930L can be ordered with a DIN rail adapter preinstalled on the back of the chassis.
Installing the Device 2.3.2 Mounting the Device to a Panel Push the device against the bottom of the DIN rail, then let go of the sliding release to latch the device. Removing the Device To remove the device from a DIN rail, do the following: Insert a flathead screwdriver into the slot of the sliding release and move it down.
Installing the Device 2.4 Connecting the Failsafe Alarm Relay Screw (M3.5 or #6-32) Panel Mount Adapter Figure 2.3 Panel Mounting Secure the adapters to the panel with M3.5 or #6-32 screws. Connecting the Failsafe Alarm Relay The failsafe relay can be configured to latch based on alarm conditions. The NO (Normally Open) contact is closed when the unit is powered and there are no active alarms.
Installing the Device 2.5 Connecting Power Normally Closed Common Normally Open Figure 2.4 Failsafe Alarm Relay Wiring Connecting Power The RUGGEDCOM RS930L supports power input from a single high AC/DC or low DC power supply. Note • For 110/230 VAC rated equipment, an appropriately rated AC circuit breaker must be installed.
Installing the Device 2.5.1 Connecting High AC/DC Power 2.5.1 Connecting High AC/DC Power To connect a high AC/DC power supply to the device, do the following: NOTICE Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment Do not connect AC power cables to terminals for DC power. Damage to the power supply may occur.

Device Management This section describes how to connect to and manage the device. Connecting to the Device The following describes the various methods for accessing the RUGGEDCOM RS930L console and Web interfaces on the device. For more detailed instructions, refer to the "RUGGEDCOM ROS Configuration Manual"...
Device Management 3.2 Configuring the Device The serial console port implements RS232 DCE (Data Communication Equipment) on a DB9 connector. The following is the pin-out for the port: Name Description Reserved (Do Not Connect) Transmit Data Receive Data Reserved (Do Not Connect) Signal Ground Reserved (Do Not Connect) Reserved (Do Not Connect)
Communication Ports The RUGGEDCOM RS930L can be equipped with various types of communication ports to enhance its abilities and performance. Ports 1 to 6 Port 7 Port 9 Figure 4.1 Port Assignment Port Type 1 to 6 Copper Ethernet Ports (10/100Base-TX) 7 and 9 EoVDSL Ports Copper Ethernet Ports...

Communication Ports 4.1 Copper Ethernet Ports WARNING Electric shock hazard – risk of serious personal injury and/or equipment interference When shielded cables are used, make sure the shielded cables do not form a ground loop via the shield wire and the RJ45 receptacles at either end. Ground loops can cause excessive noise and interference, but more importantly, create a potential shock hazard that can result in serious injury.
EoVDSL line configuration settings are modified on the Master and pushed to the Slave. Data flowing from the Master to the Slave is designated downstream, while data flowing from the Slave to the Master is designated upstream. Siemens supports two types of EoVDSL: • Universal EoVDSL Universal EoVDSL ports are Master/Slave selectable and offer symmetric data rates (upstream and downstream) up to 35 Mbps.
Communication Ports 4.2.1 EoVDSL Wiring LEDs Each EoVDSL port has a Link/Act LED and a Master LED. On devices with Universal EoVDSL ports, the Master LED can be toggled on or off depending on whether the port is set to be a Master or Slave. On devices with Long-Reach EoVDSL ports, the Master LED will be on all the time if the device is set to be the Master, or off if the device is set to be the Slave.
Communication Ports 4.2.2 Configuration and Setup • Twisted-pairs are an effective way of reducing both magnetic and capacitive interference, as they reduce the magnetic loop area to nearly zero and maintain a consistent distribution of capacitances to both ground and other sources. Therefore, make sure twisting is consistent throughout the cable length.

Communication Ports 4.2.3 EoVDSL Performance If the line conditions degrade (reducing the SNR or Signal to Noise Ratio), but the device is able to maintain the link, an alarm will be triggered to notify the user of the reduced SNR. By configuring the Rescan Mode parameter in RUGGEDCOM RS930L, the user can control at which point the scan process will be restarted when the line conditions degrade.
