SISTORE MX systems are configured for DHCP by default.
If there is no DHCP server in the network, select the menu sequence Administration>
Configuration, then click the button TCP/IP parameters in the Network tab and enter a permanent
IP address instead of DHCP. Otherwise there may be quite a long waiting time as the system will wait
for a reply from the non-existent DHCP server.

6.2.3 Trigger and digital inputs
The HVR is equipped with optocoupler that run the TTL-compatible trigger inputs of
the SISTORE MX via optocoupler and enable the switching of signal levels up to
24 V.
The inputs of the optocoupler are designed for a voltage range of 5 to 24 V.
With the SISTORE MX there are 32 trigger inputs and 8 digital inputs available.
These trigger inputs are edge triggered. The trigger edge which is to initiate a
trigger event can be selected with the software (SISTORE RemoteView and
SISTORE MX).

The 8 digital inputs can be used to control external events.
6.2.4 Digital outputs
The outputs ground a connected consumer. All outputs can handle a maximum
current of 50 mA. Fusing of the outputs is implemented with reversible fuses. All
outputs are short circuit proof.
If inductive consumers are connected, we recommend using appropriate protective circuits.

6.3 Behaviour with overheating
If the Error LED on the front of the device lights yellow, there are two possible
causes:
Overheating of the hard drive
ÎThe running application cannot be stopped.
ÎA new application cannot be started.
Overheating of the processor
ÎThe device will shut down automatically.
ÎWhen the device has cooled down sufficiently (min. 2 hours), it will boot up
automatically.
Possible causes
zThe device was not installed with a minimum clearance of 85 mm on both sides.
zThe ambient temperature is too high. See Section 71H3 72HTechnical data.
Measures
1. Pull the power plug and allow the device to cool down.
2. Wait for at least 2 hours for the device to cool down.
3. Check to ensure there is sufficient clearance on both sides of the device.
4. Measure the ambient temperature. See Section 73H3 74HTechnical data.
5. Connect the power plug again.
6. Restart the unit.
