1.1 Safety advice
WARNING!

Connecting terminals carry electrical potential from the
attached sensors/actuators.
Before coming into contact with the connections, ensure
the power is off. Check for any voltages at the connecting
terminals when the attached sensors have varying degrees
of electrical potential or when they have high electrical
potentials with earthing, for example, when measuring elec-
trical current for a mains voltage phase.
Electrical potential differences between different channels
cannot be determined from the measurement data.
See also Potential differences.
Installing modules, memory card or battery
ElectroniccomponentsaresensitivetoESD(Electro-StaticDischarge).Therefore,
dischargeanyelectrostaticenergybeforeopeningthedevice,forexampletoinstall
anI/Omoduleortoreplacetheintegratedmemorycard.Werecommendwearing
ananti-staticwristband(staticdischargewristband)andtocarryouttheworkon
aconductivesurface.

SeealsoXMLnetworkconfigurationtemplate,LANconnection
Preparing the device to PC connection
lConnectyourPCandthedeviceusingtheEthernetcrossovercablesupplied.
AlternativelyyoucanconnectthedeviceandPCalsoviaanetworkhubor
switch.
Establish device connection
1. StarttheDataServiceConfiguratorprogram,tocreatetheconnectionand
maketheconfiguration.
TheDataServicestartsandtheConnectionstabisdisplayedontheleft-hand
sideintheDataServiceConfigurator.

ThenclickAdd.
IfthedeviceIPaddressdoesnotcorrespondwiththatofyourPC,youmust
firstassignadifferentnetworkaddress.Ifnodevicesarefound,forexample
ifthescanrequiredforsearching(port16555)isnotpermittedinthenet-
work,youcaneithertryadirectconnectionwithyourPC(withnonetwork)

5. Ifthedevice’sUsermanagementisenabled,youwillseeanadditionaldia-
logue.Here,underusernameandpassword,enteryourlogindata.
ThesuccessfulconnectionisthendisplayedwithIPaddressandstatus.The
informationintheDataService...line,Host/IPcolumnisthehostnameorIP
addressofyourPC.
Set different network address
IfthedeviceIPaddressdoesnotcorrespondwiththatofyourPC,afteradevice
searchyouwillbeabletochangetheaddress,beforeyouconnecttothedevice:
EnterasuitableIPaddresscorrespondingtoyourPCIPaddress(similarbutnot
