Initial Checks
Upon receiving your equipment, carefully inspect all shipping containers
for damage. If any part of the system is damaged, notify the carrier
immediately. The damaged shipping container should be saved as
evidence for inspection by the carrier.
As the consignee, it is your responsibility to register a claim with the
carrier for damage incurred during shipment. Emerson will fully
cooperate with you, however, should such action be necessary.
After unpacking the equipment, record all serial numbers. Serial numbers
are required if you should need to contact Customer Care during the
warranty period. All shipping containers and all packing material should
be saved should it be necessary to transport or ship any part of the
system.
Verify that all components of the system have been received and that
they agree with your order. If the system received does not agree with
your order, contact Customer Care.

Power-Input
To power the system, a voltage of 24 V DC must be supplied to the
power connector. The IPC 2010 power supply must meet the
requirements for SELV (safety extra-low voltage)/LPS (limited power
source) or ES1/PS2 appropriately rated for the ambient and altitude of
the application. There are no buttons for power or resetting, as the system will
start automatically once power is applied. The Power LED (1) will light up green
to indicate that the system is now powered on.
The specific plug required is a Phoenix Contact with the part number
1748367, and users must use the same connector type

CAUTION
Equipment is intended for installation in Restricted Access Area.
Les matériels sont destinés à être installés dans des
EMPLACEMENTS À ACCÈS RESTREINT.
Battery
The IPC 2010 contains a CR2032 lithium coin battery. It is a industrial
CR2032 (-40°C to 125°C) battery and is accessible on the right side of
the IPC 2010. Depending on the operating hours and temperature, the
estimated battery life is 2 to 10 years. Battery current is not used when
the IPC 2010 is supplied with 24V.

Battery Maintenance
To replace the battery, pull the battery holder (on the right side of the
system) out of the system, replace the battery and insert the battery
holder back into the system.
Figure 3: Battery Removal
CAUTION
- Only replace with CR2032 battery. Batteries may explode if
mistreated. Do not charge, disassemble, or incinerate.
- Remplacer uniquement par une pile CR2032. Les piles peuvent
exploser si elles sont maltraitées. Ne pas charger, démonter ou
incinérer.

Serial Console
To gain access to the system, utilize the serial console port (4) by
connecting it to the host PC’s RS232 interface using a null modem cable.
Once connected, the host can establish a connection by running a
terminal emulator such as HyperTerminal or minicom. The default serial
port parameters are 115200, 8N1
The connector is RJ-45 style with pinout as defined in EIA/TIA-561, so
that off-the-shelf adapters to DB9 or USB can be used.
The pinout for RJ-45 (8P8C) connector is defined as follows:

Once a serial connection is established, it can be used to determine an
IP address that was assigned by DHCP server, using command: ip addr

7PACSystems™IPC 2010 GFK-3268A
Secure Shell (SSH)
To establish a connection with the system, Ethernet can be used instead
of the serial console. The system has an SSH server running on port 22,
and the default IP address settings are described below.
To connect to the system, use Putty on a Windows host or the default
SSH tools on Linux.
The login credentials will vary depending on the pre-installed software
*Ubuntu Linux or PACEdge), so it is advised to refer to the sections
below for specific details.
IP-Addresses
On preinstalled systems the second ethernet interface (Port 2) is
configured to use the static IP-Address: 192.168.3.100 and DHCP as
well. Therefore (if the second ethernet interface is connected to a DHCP
server) two IP-Addresses are usable on this interface (IP-Address
provided by DHCP server and static IP-Address 192.168.3.100).
CAUTION
MULTIPLE DEVICES WITH THE SAME IP ADDRESS ON THE SAME
NETWORK CAN LEAD TO ADDRESS CONFLICTS WITH UNPREDICTABLE
BEHAVIOR.
If you are using several microIPC devices in the same network, it is strongly
recommended to change the static IP Address.

Pre-Installed Software Images
IPC 2010 comes with two pre-installed software options:
•Ubuntu Server 20.04.05 LTS
•PACEdge v2.3.0 (based on Ubuntu 20.04 Server)
Depending on pre-installed software login credentials and some of the
configuration tasks are different. Sections bellow will guide through the
getting started process for each of these software options.
