2. TO DO LIST
Check if the power supply line matches the XWEB3000 specification (90~264
VAC 50~60Hz.).
Connect the serial line RS 485 with the adapter provided.
Plug-in monitor, keyboard and mouse (if required) before turning on the unit.
Plug-in RJ 45 network cable (not provided).
3. RS 485 CONNECTION
To be connected to the serial line all the Dixell Modbus instruments must be
provided with direct RS485 terminals or the “TTL”-RS485 interface (XJRS485 or
XJ485). Check the instrument manuals for more information. The RS485 line is
mainly based on two polarised terminals. Please pay respect to the right
sequence for all the devices connected to the serial line.
Follow these important instructions:
The RS485 serial line must reach all the instruments where they are installed.
Make sure of the wire polarities when screwing them into the instrument
terminals.
The cable must have 2 or 3 wires with shield, minimum section 0,5mm2(eg. the
BELDEN 8772).
From the XWEB3000 position the cable reaches all the instrument positions.
Do not execute loops or derivations:

Right connection:
Wrong connection:
Always keep the serial cable away from power cables.
Always keep the serial cable away from Electro-magnetic or frequency sources.
Do not connect shield to ground.
Do not connect the “Gnd (ground)” terminal.
Remember to draw a map of the line. This will help you to find errors if something
is wrong.
The instrument with RS485 have “+” and “-“ terminals, respect the polarity.
To keep the line balanced it is necessary a 100 Ohm resistor at the end of the line
(you ca use the RS 485+ and RS 485-terminals of the last instrument
connected).

The TTL output
The instrument with RS485 on board does not need any kind of external interface
module. For instruments with an external interface: keep the TTL cable away from
power cables or frequency sources.
The XJ485 external interface must be connected with a TTL cable to the
instrument with TTL compatibility.
Serial address of the instruments
Each instrument must be defined by its unique address.
Check the address into the Adr parameter value of each instruments. Take
reference to the instruction manual of the instrument itself to find the right
procedure to enter the programming and set the value.
The easiest way to work with the category functions is to set the addresses
progressively for similar groups of instruments which have the same application.
4. Local connection with monitor, mouse and
keyboard
On rear of the XWEB3000 sockets are provided for a monitor, a mouse and a
keyboard. Please connect all the peripherals before powering-on the unit
otherwise the system may fails to recognise them. This means that , for example,
if you do not plug the monitor cable in now, you won’t see anything displayed on it
later.
The unit can also work without these three elements therefore if the user intends
to work just with the remote, he can definitively remove them after the setup
operations. In any case inside the of XWEB3000 is loaded a standard browser to
allow the user setting up the unit.
If necessary check the instructions manual of each device connected to the unit.

The operative procedure to work with XWEB3000 is the same for all connection
methods.
It is possible to connect to the unit via a single PC provided with LAN card, by
using the net connector RJ 45 (LAN). Due to the PC-client power, this kind of
connection is more suitable for the setup procedures.
IMPORTANT: the cable between the Server and the PC must be with crossing
wires (“Bridge Cable”).
The connection procedure from the remote PC is described in deep in this guide.
You may need some changes to your PC network card, then you will be able to
connect to XWEB3000 via Ethernet/ Internet line. Once you have finished setting
up your network card, connection to XWEB3000 is established simply by
launching the Browser and inserting the default IP number of the unit
http://192.168.0.200 into the address bar.
Before reading on, please take a few moments to write down your PC network
setup, there may be a need to change it. If the IP address of your PC belong to
the hierarchy 192.168.0.XYZ (where XYZ represent a number between 1 and
254), you can reach XWEB3000 simply plugging in the network cable.
