  • Page 11: How The Cable Guard Works

    How the Cable Guard works The Ethernet Cable Guard enables the service life monitoring of Ethernet data cables (100Base-TX) with a focus on dynamic applications in automation technology, such as a trailing cable to moving machine parts (robots). With the Ethernet Cable Guard, system availability can be increased, and downtimes can be planned.

  • Page 14: Preparing The Cable Guard

    Preparing the Cable Guard 5.1 Power supply The Cable Guard must be supplied with DC 18 ... 28 V via the supplied connector plug with DC 24 V. The housing of the Cable Guard is not earthed. Please connect the functional earth connection ("FE") of the switch properly to the reference potential.
  • Page 15: Connecting The Digital Outputs (Q1/Q2)

    5.4 Connecting the digital outputs (Q1/Q2) The digital outputs Q1 and Q2 are only active after the teach-in has been completed. The digital output Q1 can signal that maintenance is required for the cable if the value falls below a configurable threshold ("Alarm threshold for Q1"). The default value is 80%.
  • Page 16: Initial Startup ("Teach-In")

    Initial Startup ("Teach-In") Please connect the device to the power supply. Please also note the information above on using the functional earth (FE). As soon as the DATA connections are connected via Ethernet cables and the links are in operation (see ports of the RJ45 connections), a Teach-In must be carried out for the device to function correctly (this also applies to any cable replacement).

    Configuration 7.3.1 Basic configuration "Settings" The basic settings can be made in the "Settings" menu. The "Change password" button can be used to change the password of the default user "admin". The "Alarm threshold for Q1" can be used to set the limit value for activating output Q1.
  • Page 21: Sending The Cable Status Via Mqtt

    7.3.3 Sending the cable status via MQTT The built-in MQTT Publisher can be activated in the "Settings" menu under "Cloud protocol activation". The MQTT Publisher regularly sends the "cable status" as an MQTT message to an MQTT broker, which can be located in the local network or in the cloud.
  • Page 22: Firmware Update

    The latest firmware can be found on the website in the "Ethernet Cable Guard" product area via the link www.helmholz.de/goto/700-200-LAN01. The Cable Guard saves the firmware file in its internal memory. After the device is restarted, the firmware is checked. If the content is correct, the firmware is used, otherwise the device is restarted with the old firmware.
  • Page 23: Factory Reset

    7.5 Factory Reset The Cable Guard can be reset to factory settings using the "SET" button when the device is switched When the Cable Guard is reset, the complete configuration and all measurement data are irretrievably deleted and IP settings are reset to the factory settings. The firmware remains up to date. To activate a reset to factory settings, disconnect the Cable Guard from the power supply.
  • Page 24: Faq

    What is the Ethernet Cable Guard? Ethernet Cable Guard is a stationary monitoring device that evaluates the current status of a data cable and displays it as a percentage. This is based on data that is determined from the physical properties of the data transmission.
  • Page 25 IEEE802.3. Can the Ethernet Cable Guard monitor any type of data cable? Helmholz recommends the Ethernet Cable Guard primarily for data lines in accordance with the 100BASE-TX transmission standard (with 100 Mbit/s) in accordance with IEEE 802.3, but also for EtherCAT, EtherNET/IP and PROFINET applications.
  • Page 26 How can costs be saved with the Ethernet Cable Guard? The Ethernet Cable Guard enables maintenance cycles to be optimized, resulting in more efficient personnel and resource planning for planned maintenance work. By determining the performance status, the Ethernet Cable Guard contributes to predictive maintenance and increases machine availability with optimized maintenance work.
