3.4.2 Boot Mode When the application running on Elise3 cannot be accessed the module can be set in Boot Mode i.e.the web interface of the module. From this GUI it is possible to install new software, start Troubleshoot Mode, see settings and to reset the module back to factory default settings.
Elise3 Installation and Configuration The Elise3 can be mounted vertically on a wall or be placed horizontally in a 19" rack. It must be fixed by screws or other fixtures to the wall or rack, and must not be easily movable.
TD 92679GB Elise3 4.2.2 Rack Mounting The Elise3 can be either front mounted or reverse mounted in a 19´´ rack. Accessories for mounting in a rack (ordered separately) Standard 19´´ rack kit: Small left/right brackets for two front mounted Elise3 modules and one big bracket for one front mounted Elise3 module.

Rear mounted single in rack Rear mounted double • Requires the reverse 19´´ rack kit Use the supplied assembly brackets and mount the two modules together, both on the rear side and on the bottom side, see figure below.
Elise3 Supply Voltage Elise3 can be connected to an external power supply (12-24 V DC battery or power source) as a complement to the primary power supply (100-240 V AC). If the primary power supply fails it switches over to the external power supply automatically, without any negative influence on the running application.
4.4.1 COM Ports (RS232 Communication with External Equipment) Requires the Elise3 Standard or LON variant. If the RS232 ports can be used or not is also depending on the application software. The Elise3 has two identical RS232 connectors; COM1 and COM2. How to connect external equipment to the Elise3 is described in the documentation of the software application.

Galvanic isolation of the inputs and outputs is provided by using a separate power supply. If galvanic isolation is not needed and Elise3 is supplied by an external 12 V power source, the supply voltage can be taken from the 12-24 V DC screw connector by connecting +V Ext to “+”...
Figure 16. Connection via the Management port The management port can be used when Elise3 has not got a valid and unique IP address or when the IP address has been changed, i.e. if Elise3 has been moved from one network to another.

Basic Configuration Elise3 needs to be configured with basic settings. Some products settings can be set in an installation Setup Wizard accessible from the web interface. The Setup Wizard will start automatically the first time the module is accessed from the web browser and every time until the configuration has been saved.
The clock in different Elise3 modules can be set from the web browser, A-bus (i.e. Central Unit in System 900) or a time server. To be able to synchronize the clocks in different Elise3 modules a time server has to be used. Depending on software application and license, an Elise3 can be used as time server.
TD 92679GB Elise3 An Elise3 can also set the time in connected systems, for example System 900. In this case, the Elise3 will send its time to the connected system once every 24-hour period and when the time is updated.
Page 27
• No module addressing 127.0.0.1/S900 The data is sent to the System 900 interface in the Elise3 module, which sends the data on the A-bus without the module address defined. The Central Unit in the system has to be configured to distribute the data to a module. It is also possible to address the System 900 interface on another module by entering its IP address instead of 127.0.0.1 (localhost).
Elise3 Working in Boot Mode If no application is running on Elise3 or if the application cannot be started, the Boot Mode can be used for installing new software, see settings, performing factory reset, troubleshooting and also starting up in normal operation again. If the module detects several major errors (for example restart loop), the module can set itself in Boot Mode.
Installing new software is normally done from the application’s web interface, refer to the application documentation. But if the application’s web interface cannot be reached it is possible to put Elise3 in Boot Mode, access the modules web interface and install new software from there.
Installation Guide TD 92679GB Elise3 Two software versions can be installed on the module. One software version is active and the other inactive in normal operation. Figure 20. Figure 22. Software installation in Boot Mode Put the module in Boot Mode, see 5.1 Set the Module in Boot Mode...
Installation Guide TD 92679GB Elise3 Run in Demonstration Mode The Demonstration Mode can be set when the module is running in normal operation, either via the application's web interface or manually by using the Mode button. Using the Mode button: Press and hold the Mode button for 10 seconds.
Installation Guide TD 92679GB Elise3 Maintenance Software Management 7.1.1 Installation of Software Normally the installation of software is done from the application’s web interface but it can also be done in Boot Mode, see 5.1.4 Install Software in Boot Mode on page 26.
