Certified usage
Please observe the following: The device may only be employed for the
purposes described in the catalog and technical description, and only in
conjunction with external devices and components recommended or
approved by the manufacturer. The product can only be operated
correctly and safely if it is transported, stored, installed and assembled
properly and correctly. Furthermore, it must be operated and serviced
carefully.
Supply voltage
For safety reasons the devices have been designed to operate at low
voltages. Thus, they may only be connected to the supply voltage
connections and to the signal contact with SELV circuits with the voltage
restrictions in accordance with IEC/EN 60950-1.
The supply voltage is electrically isolated from the housing.
Use undamaged parts.
Relevant for North America:
The device may only be connected to a supply voltage of class 2 that
fulfills the requirements of the National Electrical Code, Table 11(b). If
the voltage is being supplied redundantly (two different voltage
sources), the combined supply voltages must fulfill the requirements of
the National Electrical Code, Table 11(b).
Relevant for North America: For use in class 2 circuits.
Use 60/75 °C or 75 °C copper (Cu) wire only.
The device does not contain any service components. Internal fuses
are only triggered if there is a fault in the device. If the device is not
functioning correctly, or if it is damaged, switch off the supply voltage
and return the device to the plant for inspection.
Only switch on the supply voltage to the device if
the housing is closed,
the terminal blocks are wired up correctly and
the terminal blocks are connected.

Shielding ground
Note: The shield ground wire of the twisted pair lines is connected to the
front panel as a conductor.
Beware of possible short circuits when connecting a cable section with
conductive shielding braiding.
Hazardous Locations
Relevant for North America for devices certified for Hazardous Locations:
Power, input and output (I/O) wiring must be in accordance with Class I,
Division 2 wiring methods [Article 501-4(b) of the National Electrical
Code, NFPA 70] and in accordance with the authority having jurisdiction.


KNOWN TO BE FREE OF IGNITABLE CONCENTRATIONS.

The USB connector is for temporary connection only. Do not use,
connect, or disconnect unless area is known to be non-hazardous.
Connection or disconnection in an explosive atmosphere could result in
an explosion.

Peripheral equipment must be suitabel for the location it is used in. 

1 Device description
The RS20 Basic devices are designed for the special requirements of
industrial automation. They meet the relevant industry standards, provide
very high operational reliability, even under extreme conditions, and also
provide long-term reliability and flexibility.
The devices allow you to set up switched industrial Ethernet networks that
conform to the IEEE 802.3 standard using copper wires or optical fibers in a
line or ring structure.
The devices work without a fan.
The voltage is supplied redundantly.
The devices are mounted very quickly by snapping them onto the DIN rail.
Depending on the device variant, you can choose various media to connect
terminal devices and other infrastructure components:
twisted pair cable
multimode F/O
singlemode F/O
The twisted pair ports support:
Autocrossing
Autonegotiation
Autopolarity
There are convenient options for managing the device. Administer your
devices via:
a Web browser
HiDiscovery (software for setting up operation of the device)
management software (e.g. Industrial HiVision)
a V.24 interface (locally on the device)
The ring redundancy concept allows the network to be reconfigured quickly
after a failure.
Product configuration data can be provided by:
diagnosis displays
displaying the operating parameters
a label area for the IP address
The devices provide you with a large range of functions. Information
pertaining to these functions is found in the relevant operating software
manuals. These manuals are available as PDF files on the CD ROM
provided, or you can download them from the Internet on the Hirschmann
product pages (www.hirschmann.com).

2 Assembly and start-up
The devices have been developed for practical application in a harsh
industrial environment.
On delivery, the device is ready for operation.
The following steps should be performed to install and configure a switch:
Unpacking and checking
Insert data in label area
Connect the terminal block for voltage supply and signal 
contact and connect the supply voltage
Install the device on the DIN rail, grounding
Install the terminal block, start-up procedure
Connecting the data lines
2.1 Installing the device
2.1.1 Unpacking and checking
Check that the contents of the package are complete (see page 30
“Scope of delivery”).
Check the individual parts for transport damage.
2.1.2 Insert data in label area
The information field for the IP address on the front of the device helps you
to structure your network installation clearly.

RS20 Basic
Release 01 06/2012 19
Figure 3: Label area for IP address of device 
1 – IP address of device (label area) 
2 – MAC address of device (label)
2.1.3 Connecting the terminal blocks for supply voltage
and signal contact
The supply voltage and the signal contact are connected via a 6-pin terminal
block with a snap lock.
Caution!
Note the safety instructions (see page 4 “Safety instructions”) and
only connect a supply voltage that corresponds to the type plate of
your device. Make sure that the contact load capability of the signal
contact is not exceeded (see page 28 “General technical data”).
Supply voltage
Redundant power supplies can be used. Both inputs are uncoupled.
There is no distributed load. With redundant supply, the power supply unit
supplies the device only with the higher output voltage. The supply
voltage is electrically isolated from the housing.
You can choose between DC or AC voltage when connecting the supply
voltage. You use the +24V and 0V pins to connect the AC voltage (see
fig. 4).

Figure 4: Connecting the supply voltage at the 6-pin terminal block 
1 – DC voltage, voltage range: 9.6 V DC to 60 V DC 
2 – AC voltage, voltage range: 18 V AC to 30 V AC
Note: With non-redundant supply of the main voltage, the device reports
a loss of power. You can avert this message by applying the supply
voltage via both inputs, or by changing the configuration in the
Management.
“FAULT” signal contact
The signal contact (“FAULT”, for pin assignment of terminal block, see
fig. 4) monitors the functioning of the device, thus enabling remote
diagnostics. You can specify the type of function monitoring in the
Management.
You can also use the switch Web page to switch the signal contact
manually and thus control external devices.
A break in contact is used to report the following conditions via the
potential-free signal contact (relay contact, closed circuit):
The detected inoperability of at least one of the two voltage supplies
(voltage supply 1 or 2 is below the threshold value).
The device is not operational.
The loss of connection at at least one port. The report of the link status
can be masked by the Management for each port. In the delivery state,
link status monitoring is deactivated.
The loss of ring redundancy reserve.
A detected error during the self-test.
Pull the terminal block off the device and connect the power supply
and signal lines.
2.1.4 Installing the device on the DIN rail, grounding
Mounting on the DIN rail
Mount the device on a 35 mm DIN rail in accordance with DIN EN
60175.
Attach the upper snap-in guide of the device into the DIN rail and press
it down against the DIN rail until it snaps into place.
