Safety Practices and Precautions, Continued
Before switching on the power, check that the operating voltage listed on
the equipment nameplate agrees with the available line voltage.
Any interruption of the grounding conductor inside or outside the equip-
ment or loose connection of the grounding conductor can result in a dan-
gerous unit. Intentional interruption of the grounding conductor is not
permitted.
If it is determined that the equipment cannot be operated safely, it should
be taken out of operation and secured against unintentional usage.
To avoid fire hazard, use only a fuse of the correct type, voltage rating
and current rating as specified in the parts list for your product. Use of
repaired fuses or short-circuiting of the fuse switch is not permitted.
DO NOT open the equipment to perform any adjustments, measure-
ments, maintenance, parts replacement or repairs until all power sup-
plies have been disconnected.
Only a properly trained technician should work on any equipment with
power still applied.
When opening covers or removing parts, exercise extreme care since
"live parts or connections can be exposed".
Capacitors in the equipment can retain their charge even after the unit
has been disconnected from all power supplies.

Introduction
Overview
The Advance DataNET Hub (DNH) functions as a communication router
on an Advance Communication System (ACS) network. The DNH is a
fully redundant unit with dual electronics and with dual power supplies.
The electronics are certified for use in NEC Division 2 and IEC (Cenelec)
Zone 2 hazardous locations.
The dual hub modules (designated DataNET ‘A’ Hub or DataNET ‘B’
Hub) are connected via a serial cross-link cable The wiring of the serial
crosslink cable determines which is the ‘A’ Hub.
HUB‘B’
HUB ‘A’
The DNH brings flexibility to the ACS with its eight DataNET downlink
ports, one Ethernet 10BaseT port for interconnecting of DataNET or
Ethernet segments and one uplink port. With its uplink port, the DNH can
be used to connect DNHs together to expand the ACS network, or the
DNH can be used as an interface to an Advance Network Gateway unit.
The DataNET ports can accept copper and/or fiber optic cables. In Data
Hiway installations the DNH can use the existing Data Hiway cables.

Overview, Continued
The Advance DataNET Hub (DNH) is available in three package configu-
rations:
• 19-inch Rack Unit (Figure 1-5)
• Wall Mount Unit (Figure 1-6)
• Zone 1 Wall Mount Unit (Figure 1-7)
The Advance Communication System (ACS) is a high-speed communi-
cations system that uses TCP/IP protocols and addressing to intercon-
nect chromatographs and other process analyzers in a common network.
Figure 1-1 shows the DNH, Advance Network Access Unit (NAU) and
Advance Network Gateway (ANG) connected to the ACS. The NAU con-
nects to the ACS and provides a method to access information coming
from Advance process analyzers including Advance Maxum and
Advance Optichrom GC’s. The ANG is used to connect Siemens Applied
Automation’s equipment residing on an Advance Data Hiway to the ACS.
