1 System Description
This is a quick-start reference manual for installing the ECOLOG-PRO system. The manual
also applies to the modules listed below.
ECOLOG-PRO LBR is the communication and power supply module. It has 1 Ethernet and
1 power supply unit connection. Its purpose is for remote modules to communicate over the
Ethernet network with elproMONITOR which is installed on a server provided by the cus-
tomer. Connected ECOLOG-PRO modules are powered over the system bus.
ECOLOG-PRO 4PT is the temperature measurement module. The module has 4 inputs for
Pt100 temperature sensors. For operation, it is connected to a LAN bridge (LBR).
ECOLOG-PRO 4MA is the measurement module for analog signals. The module has
4 inputs for standard 4-20 mA signals. The monitored transmitters can be powered by the
module or by an external power supply. For operation, it is connected to a LAN bridge
(LBR).
ECOLOG-PRO 4DI is the module with 4 contact inputs (digital inputs) for the ECOLOG-
PRO system. The monitored contacts are powered by the module. For operation, it is
connected to a LAN bridge (LBR).
ECOLOG-PRO 4DO is the module with 4 alarm outputs (digital outputs) for the ECOLOG-
PRO system. For operation, it is connected to an external power supply and to a LAN bridge
(LBR).
Installation and
Operation
The minimum configuration of an ECOLOG-PRO system consists of an ECOLOG-PRO LBR,
a power supply unit, and a measurement module, for example an ECOLOG-PRO 4PT.

ECOLOG-PRO MODULE CONFIGURATOR
20 - EN
8 ECOLOG-PRO Module Configurator
The ECOLOG-PRO Module Configurator is used to assign the parameters required for
operation in the network to the ECOLOG-PRO LBR. The assignment procedure is
described by the 3 steps below:
Preparing for configu-
ration
Connect the ECOLOG-PRO LBR module to the power supply unit and the network.
To carry out the configuration, the ECOLOG-PRO LBR must be in the same logical network
as the PC which is used for the configuration.
Start Module Configu-
rator as administrator
Step 1 In the start window of the Module Configurator, left-click on the field: LBR and open the win-
dow to select the search functions. Search the ECOLOG-PRO LBR using one of the 3
methods below.
Start window
Step 2 1. Ethernet address...
- A list is generated containing all the ECOLOG-PRO LBRs in the network.
- Select the ECOLOG-PRO LBR for configuration from the list.
