3. Hardware Connection Description
In this chapter, we describe how to connect the DRP-C100 computer to the network and to various devices.
Installing the DRP-C100
DIN-rail Mounting
The DRP computers come with a DIN-rail mounting kit. To install the DIN-rail mounting kit, do the following:
Installation
STEP 1:
Check the DIN
-rail mounting kit that comes
preinstalled on the rear panel of the DRP
-C100.
STEP 2:
Insert the top of the DIN rail into the slot just below
the upper hook of the DIN
-rail mounting kit.
STEP 3:
Press the computer towards the DIN rail until the
mounting kit snaps into place.

DRP-C100 Series Hardware User Manual
16
Removal
STEP 1:
Pull down the latch on the mounting kit with a
screwdriver.
STEP 2 & 3:
Slightly pull the
computer forward and lift it up to
remove it from the DIN rail.
The specifications of the DIN-rail mounting screws
are indicated in the illustration on the right. Adhere
to these values if you need to buy replacement
screws to attach and secure the DIN
-rail bracket to
the rear panel of the computer.
NOTE
This computer is intended to be installed only in an area with restricted access. In addition, for safety
reasons, the computer should be installed and handled only by qualified and experienced professionals.
Connecting the Power
The DRP-C100 computers are provided with 2-pin power input connectors in a terminal block on the front
panel. Insert the power-cord wires into the connectors and tighten them to secure the wires in place. Plug in
the power cable to a power source. The power LED will light up to indicate that power is being supplied to
the computer. It should take about 30 to 60 seconds for the operating system to complete the boot-up
process.

The power input specification is given below:
DRP-C100 :12 VDC @ 6.82 A, 24 VDC @ 3.25 A
For surge protection, connect the grounding connector located below the power connector with the earth
(ground) or a metal surface.
ATTENTION
This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Supply with output marked LPS and rated to
deliver the following power specifications:
12 VDC (max.) @ 6.82 A, 24 VDC (max.) @ 3.25 A and a minimum Tma=60°C
If you need assistance with purchasing a power adapter, contact the Moxa technical support team.
ATTENTION
Before connecting the computer to the DC power inputs, make sure the DC power source voltage is stable.
•The wiring for the input terminal block shall be installed by qualified and experienced professionals.
- Wire Type: Cu
- Wire Size: Use 18 to 12 AWG wire size and a torque value of 0.5 N-m.
•Use only one conductor in a clamping point between the DC power source and the power input.
NOTE
If using Class I adapter, the power cord adapter should be connected to a socket outlet with an earthing
connection or the power cord and adapter must comply with Class II construction.
NOTE
For surge protection, connect the grounding connector located below the power connector with the earth
(ground) or a metal surface.
A 4 mm2conductor must be used when the connection to the external grounding screw is utilized. The
heat sink is grounded to the chassis by an internal screw.
WARNING
為避免電磁干擾，本產品不應安裝或使用於住宅環境。
Wiring Requirements
Be sure to read and follow these common safety precautions before proceeding with the installation of any
electronic device:
•Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power wiring and device wiring paths must
cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular at the crossing point.
NOTE
Do not run signal and communication wiring together with power wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid
interference, wires with different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

DRP-C100 Series Hardware User Manual
18
•Use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which wires should be kept separate.
The rule of thumb is that wiring that shares similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.
•Keep input wiring and output wiring separated.
•For future reference, label the wiring used for all your devices.
WARNING
Safety First!
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your DRP-C100.
Wiring Caution!
Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical codes
dictating the maximum current allowable for each wire size. If the current goes above the maximum
ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.
Temperature Caution!
Be careful when handling the unit. When the unit is plugged in, the internal components generate heat,
and consequently the outer casing may feel hot to the touch.
Connecting to a Network
To connect the DRP-C100 computer to a network, connect a network cable to the computer’s Ethernet port
and connect the other end of the cable to your Ethernet network. When the cable is properly connected, the
LEDs on the computer’s Ethernet port turn on to indicate a valid connection.
NOTE
The pin assignments for the DRP-C100 computer’s Ethernet port are shown in the following figure. If you
want to use your own Ethernet cable, ensure that you match the pin assignments of the connector on the
Ethernet cable.
For reliable Ethernet connections, we recommend enabling the ports in standard temperatures and keeping
them enabled in high/low temperature environment.
