  • Page 1 Part Number: EPK01 Comprises: All the above plus Ethernet Power Adapter, Power Injector, IEC mains cable and 2 additional Ethernet Patch Cables Use: Provides power and Ethernet connection over standard CAT5e cable Hydronix Ethernet Adapter User Guide HD0333 Rev 2.1.0...
  • Page 2 Chapter 1 Introduction The Hydronix Ethernet Adapter provides a simple method of network enabling Hydronix products. The Adapter is a small DIN-rail mounted unit that converts packets received over an Ethernet (TCP/IP) network to RS485 or RS232. This enables a host PC elsewhere on the network to communicate with sensors using Hydronix Hydro-Com software.

  • Page 5 IN to the router output and the port labelled OUT to the drop cable. Connect a 240V or 110V mains supply to the Power Injector. Note: The Power Injector Module can supply sufficient power for up to three Hydronix sensors (or 4 Hydro-Probe II sensors). If more sensors are to be connected to the network, then a separate power supply local to the sensors should be used instead of the Power over Ethernet solution.

    It must be connected to an Ethernet cable with an 802.11af compliant Power Injector supplying it. The Ethernet Adapter (EA01) has three indicator lights on the top. The red indicator illuminates when a suitable 24V supply is connected. The transmit indicator light blinks when data is received by the Adapter and is being sent to the sensors.
