Connection
P90
P90 uses RS232 as its bus. RS232 is specified in ANSI EIA/TIA-232-F.
To connect the RS232 bus, use a shielded pair of wires for the data lines (RX and TX) and an
additional wire for signal ground (GND).
The maximum cable length for RS232 is 15 m for standard cables, e.g. JY(ST)Y cables with
100 pF/m. If you need to cover larger distances, use a cable with a low capacity. A cable with half the
capacity has twice the maximum length.
Example calculation: A Cat7 cable with 40 pF/m allows a length of 15 m • 100 pF / 40 pF = 37.5 m

Reset button
Pressing the reset button can either restore the device to its initial state or restart the DCS2501.
Briefly pressing the reset button restarts the DCS2501. The settings of the DCS2501 are maintained.
Pressing the reset button for at least 3 seconds performs a reset. All settings are deleted and the
initial state is restored.
1 Reset button
Restart
►Ziehen Sie den Ethernet-Stecker vom Gerät ab.
Dadurch werden Störungen des Netzwerks vermieden.
►Drücken Sie kurzzeitig den Reset-Taster im Loch (z. B. mit einer Büroklammer).
Es wird ein Neustart durchgeführt.
Reset
!NOTICE
Pressing the reset button for longer deletes all the DCS2501’s settings and restores it to its initial
state.
►Disconnect the Ethernet connector from the device.
This prevents the network from being disrupted.
►Press the recessed reset button for at least 3 seconds (e.g. with a paper clip).
The device is reset. The device is restored to its initial state.

Commissioning
Information for the network administrator
If the DCS2501 and the BMS communicate via the Internet, the DCS2501 requires a public IP
address at which it can be reached by the BMS.
The DCS2501and the BMS can also communicate via NAT if port forwarding is activated for all ports.
VPN can also be used, e.g. via the Kieback&Peter technoWay.
The bandwidth required for DCS2501 is less than 200 kbit/s.
The network’s “ping” response time must be less than 200 ms.
The network’s maximum downtime must be less than 20 ms.
The standard Ethernet MTU should be 1500 bytes. DSL routers often use a smaller MTU. If this is
the case, the Ethernet packets from the DCS2501 and the BMS are sent in fragmented form.
Adjusting the router’s MTU improves the performance.
If the IP address is assigned via DHCP, the BMS must have a fixed IP address. This fixed IP address
will be provided to the Kieback&Peter representative setting up the BMS.
The following ports on the DCS2501 must be accessible from the BMS:
■Port 22 (SSH):
For encrypted data communication with the BMS.
■Port 23 (SSH/Telnet):
For low-level analysis of the device by Kieback&Peter Support (optional).
■Port 80 (HTTP):
For configuring the DCS2501 via the implemented web server (optional).
■Port 19280 (DDC/IPC):
For configuring the IP address. The IP address can be configured using an XML frame sent as a
broadcast (optional).

Configuring the DCS2501
►Connect the DCS2501 to your computer with an Ethernet cable. It doesn’t matter whether you
use a crossover or a non-crossover cable; the DCS2501 automatically identifies the cable.
►Ensure that the DCS2501 and your computer are connected to the power supply and turned on.
►Open a web browser on the computer and call up the IP address of the DCS2501. In the default
settings:
http://192.168.1.1
►Select a language by clicking on a flag below the menus in the web interface.
The configuration is available in German and English.
Log on to the DCS2501
►Select the Logon/Logoff menu.
►Select User 3.
►Enter the password.
Rights concept
■User 1
– Users are automatically User 1 when the DCS2501’s web server is called up.
