Connecting to Ethernet

Danger!
Explosion hazard in Zone 2 when operating powered Gateway
If the Gateway is installed in Zone 2 and connected to power, there is an explosion hazard
when operating DIP switches, buttons or connecting/disconnecting cables.
The operation of DIP switches/buttons and the connection/disconnection of any cables in
Zone 2 is only permitted in the absence of a hazardous atmosphere or if the device is
disconnected from power!
The Gateway is equipped with a fully galvanic isolated 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX Ethernet
interface. You may connect the Gateway to an existing Ethernet hub, switch, router or
directly to a PC.
Open the housing cover to access the terminal blocks.
Note!
Keep in mind that an access point of the Ethernet network has to be available. The
maximum length of the cable running from the Gateway to the access point is 100 m,
depending on cable type and communication speed.
