02. Assemble the hardware

01. If free-standing: attach the adhesive-backed rubber feet to the ACM7004-5's base.
02. If rack-mounted: attach the rack kit to the side of the ACM7004-5 which will be fixed to the rack.
03. Connect the ACM7004-5 to your primary network via either NET1(C) or NET1(S). NET1(C) is an
RJ45 port. NET1(S) takes an SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable transceiver) module for connecting
to either copper or fibre.
04. For Out-of-Band (OOB) management: connect a NET2 RJ45 port to a management network.
05. Connect other devices to the ACM7004-5's free serial ports; USB ports; and NET2 ethernet
ports.
06. If you have external sensors: plug in the terminal block and attach sensors and DIO devices.
07. Plug in the 12V DC power supply and turn on power to the ACM7004-5.

03. Connect to the ACM7004-5

The ACM7004-5 is addressable at either of two IP addresses:
01. its built-in address of 192.168.0.1/24.
02. the address its on-by-default DHCP client accepts from a DHCP server on your network.
Using a browser on the same network as the ACM7004-5's NET1 ports with an IP address in one of
the ACM7004-5's network ranges (ie 192.168.0.x/24 or the range used by your DHCP server):
03. enter https:/ /192.168.0.1/ or https:/ /[DHCP-supplied address]/ in the address bar and press Enter.
Note: the ACM7004-5 has a self-signed SSL certificate. 'Untrusted connection' errors will present.
