1. Overview
The ioLogik 2500 is a smart remote I/O product with unique hardware and software designs, making it an
ideal solution for a variety of industrial data acquisition applications. The ioLogik 2500’s hardware design
includes a 4-port unmanaged Ethernet switch and 2 serial ports, enabling the ioLogik 2500 to seamlessly
connect to a variety of field devices. One of the Ethernet ports can be used to link to 8 daisy-chained
ioLogik E1200 expansion modules to provide more than 100 channels. The ioLogik 2500 acts as the “head”
unit, with Click&Go Plus logic used to control the entire I/O array. Most importantly, the ioLogik 2500’s
single IP is all that’s required to connect the entire I/O array to your network, providing the perfect solution
for industrial field sites that have an insufficient number of IP addresses.
For cellular connections, the ioLogik 2500 supports Moxa’s patented MX-AOPC Server with push
communications technology, and provides an economical solution for accessing multiple remote I/O devices
connected to the same private IP network, which itself links to the outside world over a cellular connection
using dynamic IP addresses.

ioLogik 2500 Overview
The ioLogik
2500 combines a remote I/O device and data logger into one
box, dramatically reducing the
amount of effort required to integrate devices
from
multiple vendors. I/O and serial data can be logged onto a Micro SD
card (supports cards with up to 32 GB of storage space), and the
ioLogik
2500
can be programmed with Moxa’s convenient Click&Go™ Plus control
logic, which can be used to easily construct
customized control systems. As
a rugged industrial device, the ioLogik 2500 operates reliably at a wide
range of temperatures, and is well suited for hard
-to-
wire remote monitoring
and
alarm applications at unmanned sites like riversides and pipelines.

Hardware Installation
Installing the ioLogik 2500 on a DIN Rail
The DIN-rail attachment plate should already be fixed to the back panel of your ioLogik 2500. If you need
to reattach the plate, be sure the spring-loaded bracket is oriented towards the bottom, as shown in the
figures below.
STEP 1: If the spring
-loaded bracket is locked in place,
push the recessed button to release it. Once released,
you
should feel some resistance from the spring as you
slide the bracket up and down a few millimeters in each
direction.
STEP 2: Insert the top of the rail into the upper lip
of the attachment plate’s slot.
STEP 3: The attachment unit should now snap into
place along the rail, as shown below.
Removing the ioLogik 2500 from a DIN Rail
To remove the ioLogik
2500 from a DIN rail, use a
screwdriver to pull down the spring
-loaded bracket
until it locks in place, as shown in the diagram at
the right. Next, rotate the bottom of the ioLogik
2500 upwards until you can remove it from the DIN
rail.
WARNING
This equipment is intended to be used in Restricted Access Locations. External metal parts
will
be
hot! Maintenance personnel should wear protective gear before touching outside surface.

ioLogik 2500 Series Installation
2-3
Powering on the ioLogik 2500
The
ioLogik 2500 can receive power from a 9 to 48 VDC
power source. Input power is applied to the positive (V+)
and negative (V
-) terminals on the connector.
After connecting the ioLogik 2500 to the power supply, it
will take 30 to 60 seconds for the operating
system to boot
up. The green Ready LED will illuminate continuously until
the operating system is ready.
Grounding the Unit
The ioLogik 2500 is equipped with a ground connector labeled .
ATTENTION
Be sure to note
the maximum possible current for each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical
codes dictating the maximum current allowable for each wire size. If current
s exceed the maximum rating
the wires will
overheat, and may cause serious damage to the equipment. For safety reasons, wires
connecting the power supply should be at least 2 mm in diameter (e.g., 12 gauge).
Installing a microSD Card and SIM Cards
(cellular models only)
The ioLogik 2500 supports a single microSD
card
and two SIM cards (cellular models only). The
card slots are located inside the ioLogik 2500, as
shown here. The card slot is hidden
beneath a
cover plate attached by a screw that must first
be removed before the slot can be accessed.
After removing the screw holding the cover plate
in place you can insert or remove the
microSD/SIM cards. Be sure to refasten the
cover plate when you are done.

ATTENTION
When connecting the I/O device to the ioLogik’s dry contacts, we strongly recommend connecting DI.Com to
the power of the external sensor to avoid affecting other channels. DI.Com input power should be limited
to
12 to 36 VDC.

Daisy-Chaining for I/O Expansion
Up to 8 ioLogik E1200 devices can be connected in a daisy chain configuration to the ioLogik 2500 via the
L1/Slave port on the ioLogik 2500. An IOxpress configuration scheme is called a project. If the IOxpress
project includes expansion devices, the ioLogik 2500 will automatically start running in expansion mode.
If the ioLogik 2500 is running, you can replace one of the expansion units without powering down the
ioLogik 2500. Take the following steps to replace an expansion unit:
1. Power-off the expansion unit.
2. Replace the unit with another expansion unit of the same model.
3. Access the DIP switch beneath the cover plate (as shown below).

ioLogik 2500 Series Installation
2-5
4. Move the DIP switch from the down position to the up position to trigger the ioLogik 2500 to refresh its
connection with the expansion units. If the DIP switch is already in the up position, move it down and
then back up again.
5. The expansion unit will start running.
You may also use the ioLogik 2500’s web console to reconnect the expansion units.
NOTE
Expansion units must be replaced with the same model of expansion unit. If you would like to use a
different expansion unit model, you must first change the relevant IOxpress settings.
The following figure illustrates a simple daisy-chain of I/O modules using the ioLogik 2500 for wireless
connectivity.
ioLogik 2500 ioLogik E1200 ioLogik E1200 ioLogik E1200 ioLogik E1200 ioLogik E1200
When daisy
-chaining an array of devices, the
first device in the chain (after the ioLogik 2500)
must be connected to the L1 Slave port on the
top of the ioLogik 2500 (outlined in red in the
diagram).
ATTENTION
When using the ioLogik 2500 as the wireless head of an array of ioLogik E1200 modules, make sure that:
1. You connect the first E1200 expansion module in the array to the ioLogik 2500’s L1 Slave port.

Reset to Factory Defaults
If you need to reset the ioLogik 2500 to factory
defaults, press and hold the reset button (located
under the cover
-
plate, as shown in the diagram) for
5 seconds.
WARNING
Resetting your device to factory defaults will result in the loss of all configuration settings and any Click&Go
Plus logic settings that have already been configured.
Network Installation
Ethernet Communication
Connections to the LAN port are made through an RJ45 connector on the ioLogik 2500 device. The wiring
and pin connections for these connectors are described in separate sections below.
ATTENTION
The maximum cable length of a
10/100BaseT connection is 100 m (350 feet), but the actual limit could be
shorter depending on the amount of electrical noise in the environment. To minimize the amount of noise,
Ethernet cables should not run parallel to power cables or other cables that
generate electrical noise.
TCP/IP Settings
The following table shows the TCP/IP parameters supported by the LAN port. The ioLogik 2500 will revert to
these default values whenever it is reset to factory defaults.
LAN Port
Parameter Supported Values
IP Address Default: 192.168.127.253
Subnet Mask Default: 255.255.255.0
Gateway Default: 0.0.0.0
IP Address
The ioLogik 2500’s IP address.
Subnet Mask
Determines the subnet on which the device is located.
Gateway
The gateway IP address, which determines how the controller communicates with devices outside its subnet.
The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway are static; contact your network administrator to obtain these
