1. SAFETY INSTRUCTION
1. Safety Instruction
Please, observe the following instructions:
•The router must be used in compliance with all applicable international and national laws
and in compliance with any special restrictions regulating the utilization of the router in
prescribed applications and environments.
•To prevent possible injury to health and damage to appliances and to ensure that all the
relevant provisions have been complied with, use only the original accessories. Unau-
thorised modifications or utilization of accessories that have not been approved may
result in damage to the router and in a breach of applicable regulations. Unauthorized
modifications or utilization of accessories that have not been approved may result in the
termination of the validity of the guarantee.
•The router can not be opened.
•It must not be exceeded by the maximum voltage 36 V DC power connector on the router.
•Do not expose the router to extreme ambient conditions. Protect the router against dust,
moisture and high temperature.
•The router should not be used at petrol stations of flammable and explosive materials.
We remind the users of the duty to observe the restrictions concerning the utilization of
radio devices at petrol stations, in chemical plants, or in the course of blasting works in
which explosives are used.
•When using the router in the close proximity of personal medical devices, such as cardiac
pacemakers or hearing aids, you must proceed with heightened caution.
•If it is in the proximity of TV sets, radio receivers and personal computers, the telephone
may cause interference.
•It is recommended that you should create an appropriate copy or backup of all the im-
portant settings that are stored in the memory of the device.

3. ROUTER DESCRIPTION
3. Router Description
Industrial router XR5i v2 is used to a secure connection between two local area networks
(LANs) via two ETHERNET interfaces 10/100 and secured tunnel (IPSec, OpenVPN or L2TP).
The second option is to use this router for connecting two devices with different serial interface
(RS232, RS485, MBUS) alternatively I/O to the local network (LAN). In this configuration, the
communication device has an EHTERNET 10/100 and two interfaces that are equipped on
the user’s request.
XR5i v2 router is standardly equipped with one ETHERNET 10/100 port, one USB A (host)
port, one I/O port and two expansion ports. Users can select a second ETHERNET 10/100
port, serial interface RS232, RS485, RS422, MBUS, expansion port with SD card (SDH) or
other inputs/outputs (I/O). Industrial XR5i v2 router is supplied either in a plastic or metal
casing, based on the requirements of the customer.
Configuration is performed via web interface and protected by password. The router sup-
ports creation of VPN tunnels using technologies IPsec, OpenVPN and L2TP to ensure safe
communication. Web interface provides detail statistics about the router activities.
Other diagnostic functions ensuring continuous communication include automatic function-
ality inspection, or hardware Watchdog which monitors the status of the router. With the help
of a special window (start up script window) you may insert Linux scripts for various actions.
For some applications the key option to create several different configurations for one wire-
less router, the so-called profiles (maximum of 4), and the option to switch between them (for
example via binary input status, web interface, etc.) is essential.
The industrial router XR5i v2 has implemented SNMP protocol for remote management.
It is also possible to configure the network in bulk and use any additional software – VPN
SmartCluster configurator to easily configure a VPN or a program for monitoring routers in
the network R-SeeNet. Industrial XR5i v2 router is enhanced by the ability to create custom
functions easy integration of custom software modules.
Examples of possible applications
•security system
•monitoring
•vending and dispatcher machines

5.5 Mounting recommendations
•possibility to be put on a work surface,
•DIN rail EN 60715 with included clip CPD2 (or CKD2 for metal version).
For the most of applications with a built-in router in a switch board it is possible to recognize
two kinds of environments:
•no public and industry environment of low voltage with high interference,
•public environment of low voltage without high interference.
For both of these environments it is possible to mount router to a switch board, the following
there is no need to have examination immunity or issues in connection with EMC according to
EN 60439-1 ed.2:00 + A1:04.
Compliance of EN 60439-1 ed.2:00 + A1:04 specification it is necessary to observe next
assembly of the router to the switch – board:
•For every cables we recommend to bind the bunch, we recommend for this use:
–Length of the bunch (combination of power supply and data cables) can be maxi-
mum 1.5 m. If the length of data cables exceeds 1.5 m or in the event of, the cable
leads towards the switch – board. We recommend installing over – voltage protec-
tors (surge suppressors).
–With data cables they mustn’t carry cables with reticular tension ∼230 V/50 Hz.

5. ROUTER DESIGN
•Sufficient space must be left in front of individual connectors for handling of cables,
Figure 12: Space in front of connectors (plastic) Figure 13: Space in front of connectors (metal)
•For correct function of the router we recommend to use in the switch-board earth-bonding
distribution frame for grounding of power supply of router, data cables and antenna.

5.6 Removing from the DIN rail
DIN holder is suitable for DIN rail according to EN 60715 standard only. Default position of
CPD2 holder (or CKD2 for metal version), which is used for mounting the router on a DIN rail,
is shown in the following figure:
Figure 14: Default position of DIN holder
For removing from the DIN rail it is necessary to lightly push upward the router so that the
top part of the CPD2 holder (or CKD2 for metal version) hitched to the DIN rail get out of this
rail and then fold out the top part of the router away from the DIN rail.

5.7.2 Power connector PWR
Panel socket 2-pin.
Pin number Signal mark Description
1 VCC(+) Positive pole of DC supply voltage (+9 to +36 V DC)
2 GND(-) Negative pole of DC supply voltage
Table 6: Connection of power connector
Figure 17: Power connector
Power supply for router is required between +9 V to +36 V DC supply. Protection against
reversed polarity without signaling is built into the router.
The power consumption during receiving is 1.6 W. The power consumption when using
WiFi is 1.9 W. The peak power consupmtion during data sending is 2.5 W. However, values of
consumption can be increased, if some expansion port is eqquipped. For correct operation it
is necessary that the power source is able to supply a peak current of 0.5 A.
Circuit example:

The positive pole VCC is marked by a red socket on the power.
