Battery Backup (Of Time); Network Access - Redback A 4510B Operating Manual

A 4510B Yearly Timer with Network Access
2.7 BATTERY BACKUP (TIME)
On the rear of the unit is a switch labelled Battery Backup. This is used to backup the internal clock in the event of a power
failure. The switch is set to OFF by default to ensure the backup battery isn't discharged.
(NOTE: this does not provide backup power to the unit itself. If a power fail backup supply is required this must be
connected to the 24V DC input).
A power fail will not mean a loss of the programmed events, as they are stored on the Micro SD card. Once power is restored
the unit will power up and read the events from the Micro SD card and operate as normal.

3.0 NETWORK ACCESS

The Redback® A 4510B has been upgraded from previous versions to now include access via a network connection. The
unit is connected with the addition of the Redback® A 4498 Network Connection Pack. With the upgraded PC software
all the event timing and audio file selection can be adjusted remotely.
Note: Audio files cannot be transferred via this connection. All audio files must be loaded onto the supplied Micro SD card
via the PC software. These files are stored in a Library on the SD card and can then be selected remotely.
Figure 3 below demonstrates how to connect the timer to a network via the Redback® A 4498 Connection Pack. The
pack includes a serial to ethernet converter, a proprietry adaptor board, a DC power lead and a short CAT6 lead for con-
nection between the A 4510B and the Adaptor board. The Serial to Ethernet Converter requires some configuration which
is outlined in the A 4498 instruction manual.
Once the Serial To Ethernet Converter setup is complete and all required connections made, the unit should now be acces-
sible via the PC software. Refer to the supplied Software Programming Guide for more information.
Note: An IT administrator or someone experienced with network protocols wil be required to setup the
network access.
