1.2 Other Safety 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 and damage to appliances and to ensure compliance with
all relevant provisions, use only the original accessories. Unauthorized modifications or
the use of unapproved accessories may result in damage to the router and / or a breach
of applicable regulations. Unauthorized modifications or use of unapproved accessories
may void the warranty.
•The router can not be opened.
•Power supply must not exceed 60 V DC max.
•Do not expose the router to extreme ambient conditions. Protect the router against dust,
moisture and high temperature.
•Only routers with appropriate certification and labelling should be used in locations where
flammable and explosive materials are present, including gas stations, chemical plants,
or locations in which explosives are used. We remind the users of te 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.
•Switch off the router when travelling by plane. Utilization of the router in a plane may
endanger the operation of the plane or interfere with the mobile telephone network, and
may be unlawful. Failure to observe these instructions may result in the suspension
or cancellation of telephone services for the respective client, or, it may result in legal
sanctions; it may also result in both eventualities.
•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.
•The router may cause interference when used in close proximity to TV sets, radio re-
ceivers or personal computers.
•It is recommended that you create an appropriate copy or backup of all important settings
that are stored in the memory of the device.

3. Router Description
LAN Industrial router SmartFlex SR300 is an ideal device for the realization of a secure
connection of two local area networks (LANs). Interconnection is carried out using two ETH-
ERNET 10/100 interfaces and secure tunnel (IPSec, OpenVPN, L2TP).
The other equally important ways to use this router is to connect any device with RS232,
RS485 or I/O interface to the local network (LAN). For this purpose, SmartFlex SR300 is
equipped with two ETHERNET 10/100 ports and other interfaces based on the version of the
router chosen by the user.
As a standard, this router is equipped with two ETHERNET 10/100 ports, one USB 2.0
Host port, two binary inputs and one output (I/O connector). An integral part of the router is
also a memory card reader placed on the rear panel. This reader allows SmartFlex SR300 to
operate with microSD cards and increase storage space of the router up to 64 GB (32 GB in
case of SDHC cards). The router can be equipped with WiFi module on customer’s request,
however it is not possible to order it and add to the router later. The router can be equipped
with PoE PD (Power over Ethernet – powered device) to power the router via Ethernet, or
PoE PSE (power source equipment) to power other devices by the router. Richer range of
interfaces is available in versions containing three switched Ethernets. SmartFlex SR300 is
supplied either in a plastic or metal casing, based on the requirements of the customer.
For configuration of the industrial router is available web interface protected by password.
Web interface provides (after logging in) detailed statistics about the router activities, signal
strength, detailed system log etc. This device supports the creation of VPN tunnels using tech-
nologies IPSec, OpenVPN and L2TP for secure communications. There are also supported
functions such as DHCP, NAT, NAT-T, DynDNS, NTP, VRRP, control by SMS, backup primary
connection and many other functions.
Other diagnostic functions ensuring continuous communication include hardware watch-
dog which monitors the status of the router. Using a special window (start up script window)
you may insert Linux scripts for various actions. For some applications is crucial the possibility
to create several different configurations for one router. These configurations can be switched
as necessary (for example using SMS, binary input status, etc.). SmartFlex routers may auto-
matically upgrade configuration and firmware from server. This allows mass reconfiguration of
many routers in one time.
The router also supports additional software like R-SeeNet for permanent traffic monitoring
of routers.

•mobile office
•fleet management
•security system
•telematic
•telemetric
•remote monitoring
•vending and dispatcher machines

5.5 Mounting recommendations
•Possibility to be put on a work surface,
•DIN rail EN 60715 with included plastic or metal clip.
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.
Attention: If the negative pole of the router is grounded, there is no protection against
reversed polarity!
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.
10

SmartFlex SR300
•Sufficient space must be left before individual connectors for handling of cables,
•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 Removal of the DIN rail
The DIN holder is suitable for a DIN rail according to EN 60715 standard only. The default
position of plastic or metal holder, which is used for mounting the router on a DIN rail, is shown
in the following figure. Its position can be changed on some models (back or bottom). When
changing the position of the DIN holder, tighten the screws with max. 0.4 Nm torque.
Figure 8: Default position of DIN holder
In order to remove the DIN rail it is necessary to lightly push the router upward so that the
top part of the DIN holder hitched to the DIN rail comes out of this rail, then fold the top of the
router away from the DIN rail.

* Additionaly it can indicate a device without PoE support connected on the other side of the
cable. In this case the indication is caused by low impedance (lesser than 500 Ω) of this device
without PoE support. You can solve this by disabling the PoE PSE feature on the proper ETH
port in the router’s Web interface, see Configuration manual for SmartFlex routers [2].
State indication of WAN LED is updated every 10 seconds.

Panel socket 2-pin.
Pin number Signal mark Description
1 GND(-) Negative pole of DC supply voltage

Table 10: Connection of power connector
Figure 11: Power connector
Unit has to be supplied by a power supply specified as a Limited Power Source (LPS) ac-
cording to clause 2.5 of IEC/UL 60950-1 or CEC/NEC Class 2 source of supply as defined
in the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1 and National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. If
the power supply/cable provided with device is not used, always use the cables with minimum
wire size (nominal cross section) 0.5 square mm for power supply.
The power supply for the router must be between +10 V to +60 V DC supply. Protection
against reversed polarity without signaling is built into the router. Note: The protection against
reversed polarity is lost if the negative pole is grounded!
The router can be put into low power mode using a special command lpm. It can then be
awakened, for example, by an activity on binary input or using an internal timer. Consumption
in LPM mode may vary depending on the configuration of the router.
Circuit example:
Figure 12: Connection of power supply
Note for PoE: See Chapter 5.8.6 for information on how PoE versions of the router
impact the power supply usage. The power supply for a PoE PSE router has to meet
other specific requirements.
