Dimensions (unit = mm)
Wall Mounting
In most applications, wall mount provides an easier installation. You will
find it quite easy to mount AWK-6222 on the wall, as illustrated below.
STEP 1:
Attach the wall
-mounting kit
with
M4 screws, as shown in
the diagram below:
STEP 2:
Mounting the AWK
-6222 on the wall
requires 4 screws. Use the AWK
-6222
device, with wall
-mounting kit
attached, as a guide to mark the correct
locations of the 4 screws. The heads of
the screws should be between 5.5 mm
and
8.5 mm in diameter, and the
shafts should not be more than 5.0 mm
in diameter, as
shown in the figure.
Do not drive the screws in all the way into the wall—leave a space of about
2 mm to allow room to slide the wall-mounting kit between the wall and
the screws.
ATTENTION
T
est the screw head and shank size by inserting the screws
into
one of the keyhole shaped apertures of the w
all-
mounting plates
before attaching the plate to the wall.
STEP 3:
Once the screws are fixed into the wall, insert the four screw heads
through the large opening of the keyhole-shaped apertures, and then
slide the AWK-6222 downwards, as indicated to the right. Tighten the
four screws for added stability.

- 5 -
DIN-Rail Mounting (Optional)
The DK-DC50131
die-cast metal kit can
be bought separately, and enable easy and
robust installation for the AWK
-6222. A
pair of DK
-DC50131s is needed for
DIN
-rail mounting. To install the DIN-rail
mounting kits, tightly attach the two
DIN
-rail mounting kits on the rear pa
nel of
AWK
-6222 with 12 screws (6 screws for
each kit)
.
To Install
STEP 1:
Use the recessed button on
the spring
-loaded bracket to
lock it into position.
STEP 2:
Insert the top of the DIN rail into the slot
just below the upper hook of the DIN
-
rail
moun
ting kit. Push the AWK-
6222 toward
the DIN rail
until the DIN-
rail attachment
bracket snaps into place.

- 6 -
To Release
STEP 1:
Pull out the two spring
-loaded
brackets
from the bottom until
they are fixed in the “release”
position.
STEP 2:
Pull the
AWK-
6222 out and upward.
Wiring Requirements
WARNING
Safety First!
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or
wiring your Moxa AWK
-6222.
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.
You should also pay attention to the following items:
•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 intersection point.
NOTE
Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in
the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with different
signal characteristics should be routed separately.
•You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to
determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb is
that wiring with similar electrical characteristics can be bundled
together.
•Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.
•It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system
for easy identification.

- 7 -
Grounding Moxa AWK-6222
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the
ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
ATTENTION
This product is intended to be mounted to a well
-grounded
mounting surface, such as a metal panel. There must be no
electrical
potential difference between any two ground
ing points.
Otherwise, there is a risk that the device could be destroyed.
Installations with Unstable Power Inputs
There are cases where the device has to be wired to the same power
source as other equipment. In such cases if equipment such as motors
that are connected in the circuit draw a large amount of current during
operation, the transient voltage drop could potentially cause the AWK to
become unstable. Installing a DC/DC power isolator between the two
equipment is recommended to isolate the transient effect in and to ensure
a stable power input for the AWK.
Installations with Cable Extended Antennas for Outdoor
Applications
If the antenna or the AWK device is installed outdoors or in an open-air
setting, proper lightning protection is required to prevent direct lightning
strikes on the AWK device. In order to prevent coupling currents from
nearby lightning strikes, a lightning arrester should be installed as part of
your antenna system. Ground the device, antenna, as well as the arrester
properly to provide maximum outdoor protection for the device.

Arrester Accessories
•SA-NMNF-01: Surge arrester, N-type (male) to N-type (female)
•SA-NFNF-01: Surge arrester, N-type (female) to N-type (female)
Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs
The AWK-6222 must be connected to a power-over-Ethernet (PoE) IEEE
802.3af compliant power source or an IEC60950 compliant limited power
source. When AWK-6222 is powered via DC power, the M12 A-coding
connector on the bottom panel is used for the AWK-6222’s two redundant
inputs. The pin assignment is shown below:
Pin

ATTENTION
This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Unit
marked “Class 2” or “LPS” and rated O/P: 12 to 48 VDC, 1.066 to
0.312 A
Make sure the
external power adapte
r (including power cords and
plug assemblies)
provided with the unit is certified and suitable
for use in your country.
Before connecting the AWK
-6222
to the DC power inputs, make
sure the DC power source voltage is stable.

- 9 -
Wiring the Digital Inputs and Relay Contact
(Digital Output)
The AWK-6222 has two sets of digital input—DI1 and DI2. Each DI
comprises two contacts of the 8-pin M12 connector on the AWK-6222’s
bottom panel. These two digital inputs can be connected to
digital-output-enabled sensors for on-site status monitoring.
The AWK-6222 also has one relay output, which consists of the two
contacts. These relay contacts are used to detect user-configured events.
The two wires attached to the relay contacts form an open circuit when a
user-configured event is triggered. If a user-configured event does not
occur, the relay circuit will be closed.
A field-installable plug, M12A-8PMM-IP68, is recommended for
connecting the AWK-6222’s DIs and relay.
Communication Connections
10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection
The 10/100BaseT(X) ports located on the AWK-6222’s bottom panel are
used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices.
The pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-X (HUB/Switch-type)
ports are shown below.

RS-232 Connection
The AWK-6222 has one RS-232 (8-pin RJ45) console port located on the
bottom panel. Use either an RJ45-to-DB9 or RJ45-to-DB25 cable to
connect the Moxa AWK-6222’s console port to your PC’s COM port. You
may then use a console terminal program to access the AWK-6222 for
console configuration.

NOTE
1. The pin numbers for male DB9 and DB25 male connectors,
and hole numbers for DB9 and DB25 female
connectors, are
labeled on the connector strip. However, the numbers are
typically quite small, so you may need to use a magnifying
glass to see the numbers clearly.
2. The pin numbers for both 8-pin and 10-
pin RJ45 connectors
(and ports) are typically not labeled on the connectors
(or
ports). Refer to the pinout diagram above for details.
ATTENTION
To ensure the IP6
8-rated connectivity, you must use a
waterproof housing during any communication activities. An
IP6
8-rated field installable plug, which is attached in AWK-
6222’s
accessory pack, may be needed in this case. The installation
instructions are shown below:

ATTENTION
The AWK
-6222 is NOT a portable mobile device and should be
located 20
cm away from the human body.
The AWK
-6222 is NOT designed for the general public. A
well
-trained technician is required to deploy the AWK-6222
units
and safely establish a wireless network.
ATTENTION
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
1
. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2
. This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
ATTENTION
Do not locate the antenna near overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuits, or where it can come into contact
with such circuits. When installing the antenna
, take extreme
care not to come into contact with such circuits, because they
may cause serious injury or death.
For instruction on proper
installation and grounding of the antenna, refer to national and
local codes (for example, U.S.: NFPA 70; National Electrical Code,
Article 810; Canada: Canadian Electrical Code, Section 54).
