The eWON Serial Number (SN) is an important traceability tool both for the user and for the manufacturer.
Therefore, next to the product label, each eWON has its serial number stored in the flash memory. This SN is also
used in order to scan the network for eWONs and to assign its IP address, subnet mask and gateway. For more
details, See “Equipment information and versions” on page 7.
3.3 Equipment information and versions
The eWON hardware and software revisions can be checked with a web browser on the eWON server (see
Communicating with the eWON on page 19). Once logged onto the eWON, clicking on the eWON logo shows these
revisions.

3.4 Mechanical outline
Figure 5: Left: Mechanical Outline - Right: DIN-rail latch
The eWON must be fastened on a 35mm DIN rail compliant with EN50022. A fixing latch is therefore fastened at the
bottom of the housing in order to put the device in place or remove it.
To put the unit in place, insert the top slider into the upper part of the rail, with the eWON tiled around 20°. Then
draw the latch at the bottom downwards with a screwdriver and at the same time put the unit right by rotating it.
Release the pin, the eWON is now safely fastened.
Important: Be careful when mounting the unit on the DIN-rail as doing it improperly could damage either
the fixing latch and/or the DIN-rail itself.

3.5 Mounting and environmental conditions
The eWON unit has an IP31 protection grade. It is therefore not suited for outdoor mounting. The design of the unit
is such that it has to be integrated in an enclosed electrical cabinet, protected from excessive heat, humidity and
dust. The eWON4001™ is complying to the CE-marking requirements regarding electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC) within an industrial environment.
The normal mounting position is wall mounted on DIN-rail (EN 50022). The unit is suited to work in any other
position.
The equipment will operate within specified tolerances only if the following environmental conditions are respected:
3.6 Preparing the installation
The recommended free space in the cabinet for the eWON should be at least: 50-mm wide x 225-mm high x 200-
mm deep (terminal block excluded). A piece of rigid DIN-rail profile (flat 35mm wide) of suitable length should be
firmly fastened, horizontally, in the middle of the area.
Grounding the eWON is necessary to eliminate unwanted transients (lightning protection) and to conform to the
EMC requirements. Therefore, a ground screw is available at the back of the unit just below the DIN latch. Connect
this screw directly to a low impedance ground.
3.7 Specification for external power supply selection
The eWON4001™ has to be supplied by an external voltage source ranging from 12 to 24 VDC. The power supplied
must be a Class2 or Level 3, SELV-compliant (security voltage) and limited in current to a max of 500mA. The safety
voltage power supply is not part of the delivery. The data given below is intended to allow correct selection of the
external power supply.
(*) Properly ground the unit with the earth screw at the bottom of the unit. This is a must to ensure
the security and the electro mechanical compatibility (EMC) of the device.

3.7.1 Auto fuse
An auto fuse placed just after at the power input protects the eWON devices against short circuits. This component
returns by itself to its normal state when the short circuit has disappeared and after the component has been cooling
down. Would this fuse happen to operate, please check the device for presence of loose metal parts inside likely to
generate a short circuit. If the problem recurs even after such a verification, then return the device to the vendor for
further investigation.

5.5 Resets
Warning: you should not reset your eWON unless you have been told to do so by someone of our
technical support. The concerned files (differs depending on reset type) are totally lost and
unrecoverable after being formatted.
To press the reset button, you will need a standard ball pen to pass through the hole in the front panel.
5.5.1 User Reset
This is the first level and most usual level of reset. It consists in formatting only the « user file » part of the non
volatile memory. The Tag configuration and the customer web site are part of the formatted files.
You generate this first level reset by pressing and maintaining the reset button during approximately 4 seconds after
powering the eWON up until the « USER » LED flashes 1x per second. When this state is reached, release the
button and wait approximatively 20 secs until the procedure is completed. The eWON restarts automatically and is
ready to communicate. This type of reset does not modify the communication parameters.
5.5.2 Factory Reset
This second level reset is used only exceptionally because it formats all non volatile memories and make the eWON
returning to its factory defaults. This operation consists in 3 stages:
• Formatting of all non volatile memories, including all COM parameters and IP addresses
• Return to ex-factory configuration (default config)
• Full hardware auto test with result shown by the “user” LED
Warning: you should not reset your eWON unless you have been told to do so by someone of our
technical support. The concerned files (differs depending on reset type) are totally lost and
unrecoverable after being formatted.
You generate this second level reset by pressing and maintaining the reset button during approximately 20 secs
after powering up the eWON until the “USER” LED remains RED continuously. When this state is reached, release
the button and wait approximatively during 45 secs until the procedure is completed. The procedure finishes with the
result of the autotest on the “user” LED. If the autotest is completed succesfully, then the “user” LED shows its
normal pattern of 200ms ON et 1,5 sec OFF.
Any other pattern will start with 200ms ON (opening of the pattern) followed by OFF and a certain number of times 1
sec ON that allows to identify the nature of the detected problem. Please call the technical support if you are
confronted with an error pattern on the “user” LED.
Warning: you absolutely have to wait until the full autotest procedure is completed without interrupting
it. If the autotest is interrupted, the flash memory of the eWON will contain random data likely
to make it unstable. In such a case you have to redo the full reset procedure from scratch and
wait until it is totally completed.
When performing a full reset, the eWON does NOT restart in normal mode by itself and remains running in diagnose
mode. Power the eWON off and on again to restart in normal mode. As described before, the eWON returns to its
default COM parameters and IP addresses after this level 2 reset is performed.

5.6 Configurable serial port
The configuration of the physical serial mode is done by a set of 4 dip switches located on left side from the unit. The
settings of the switches are shown in the table below (note: switch 1 is the most right one).
Note: the 3 switch configurations shown here above are the sole configurations giving satisfactory
results. See important remarks about this configuration on the next page.
Warning: Contrary to indications on the label, the switch 2 is reserved and must stay OFF. Note that
switch 3 & 4 need to have the same position (both ON or both OFF). When they are ON, it
connects the internal polarisation (typ 680 Ohms) and termination (typ 120 Ohms) resistors.
This configuration applies only to RS4xx lines conforming to good practices.
