LED “status” indicates the power connection
and connection status with controllers
Off No power connected
Blink
(1 Hz) No connection with external controllers
Fast blink
(4 Hz) The device is in bootloader mode
On Connected to external controllers
LED “link“ indicates Ethernet network
link and activity
Off No connection to Ethernet network
Blink Connected to Ethernet network
Receiving Ethernet data packets
On Connected to Ethernet network
No network activity
LEDs “1...16“ display status of temperature sensors
Off Channel is not configured
Blink No connection with the sensor
On Connected to the sensor
Multifunctional button “reset“
To reboot the device push the button for 1 second
To reset the device to factory defaults push and hold the
button for 5 seconds.
IP–address will be set to 10.0.1.101, subnet mask - to
255.255.255.0. All other settings will be set to default values
For firmware update, power off the device, push and hold the
button and power the device on. Release the button after the
LED “status” will start to blink fast.
The network settings of the device started in bootloader mode
are: IP–address – 10.0.1.101, subnet mask – 255.255.255.0
The PWR “+” and “–” terminals are designed to power the device
+12...48 VDC if connected Ethernet switch has no PoE support.
In the "single-ended"connection mode, only one single
sensor can be connected to every channel.
In the "bus"connection mode, all 16 sensors combined to a bus
should be connected to cahnnel #1.
For connection diagrams refer to the Instruction manual.
SETUP AND CONFIGURATION
The configu ation of the module is handled via web-interface.
To start working with the device:
•Connect the device to the Ethernet switch. If the switch has
no PoE support, connect the power +12...48 VDC to the PWR
terminal
•Ensure that your computer can connect to the network address
10.0.1.101 or set the TCP/IP settings of active network adap-
tor to: IP address –
10.0.1.100
, subnet mask –
255.255.255.0
• Enter 10.0.1.101 in address bar of your web-browser
•Enter: login – root, password – root
•Configu e the device settings
The web-interface contains the next web-pages:
Home Displays the hardware revision and the
firmwa e version
Settings Network settings, type of data exchange
protocol, sensors connection mode
Sensors
Displays sensor’s temperatures and errors
statistics.
Configuration of channels (assigning
addresses to sensors in the "bus" mode,
and enabling/disabling channels in the
"single-ended" connection mode).
Detection of addresses of connected sensors
Status Displays current TCP/IP connections and device
uptime info
