Page 13: Chapter 1 Introduction
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 14 Introduction Chapter 1 Hydronix Ethernet Adapter User Guide HD0333 Rev 2.1.0...

1.1.1 Location of the Ethernet Adapter (EA01) The Ethernet Adapter should be mounted in the wiring junction box as close to the sensors as possible, and protected from water and excessive dust. The Ethernet Adapter (EA01) should be installed in such a manner as to prevent electro-static discharge to the Ethernet “IN”... -

24V+ and 0V outputs of the Power Adapter to the 24V+ and 0V inputs of the Ethernet Adapter, ensuring that the wire is of sufficient power rating to carry the power for the number of sensors connected. -

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. -

This arrangement uses just one of the sets of sensor outputs on the Ethernet Adapter. In practice, this arrangement is hard to achieve, so sensors may be wired using very short stubs: Although the Ethernet Adapter has multiple sets of sensor outputs, wiring in a star configuration with each sensor wired to an output set should be avoided if at all possible. -
Page 19: Programming
Connecting with Sensors 4 Programming An installation using the Ethernet Adapter packs the messages sent from a Host to the Sensor into an Ethernet data packet, which is then unpacked by the Ethernet Adapter and converted into RS485 voltage levels.

Page 25: Chapter 4 Configuring The Ethernet Adapter
Configuring the Ethernet Adapter 1 Ethernet Adapter defaults By default, the Ethernet Adapter will use an automatically generated IP Address, which will be allocated by the network DHCP server. As this may change after a few days or weeks, it is recommended that a fixed IP Address is used for the Ethernet Adapter. -
Page 26: Adding An Ethernet Adapter Manually
Chapter 4 3 Adding an Ethernet Adapter manually In order to manually enter an Ethernet Adapter’s IP Address select Communications->TCP/IP- >Add Ethernet Adapter. In the dialog that is shown, enter the IP Address and Port Number (usually 10001) of the Ethernet Adapter The adapter will be added to the list, select it to connect. -
Page 27: Changing The Ethernet Adapter Ip Address
Port, all incoming traffic to that port should be directed to the IP Address of the Ethernet Adapter and port 10001. Make a note of the network’s IP Address on the Internet and the number of the port opened up. The table below shows the settings used in this example:... - Page 28 If the Firewall does not allow a completely flexible configuration of port forwarding then either open up port 10001 on the Firewall and leave the Ethernet Adapter port set as 10001, or alternatively alter the port of the Ethernet Adapter to be the same as the port opened in the Firewall.
