1.8 Safety precautions
DANGER —HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES
WARNING - These installation/servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only.
To avoid electrical shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the
operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.
WARNING –Mains protection
WARNING - The DINgate module must always be protected by fuses on the incoming side. To
enable maintenance DINgate module, it is recommended to install a short circuit protection.
Do not operate the equipment other than indicated by the technical data.
Always adhere to the following checklist:
1. Only qualified personnel or licensed electricians should install the Xemex DINgate TM. The mains voltages of
230 Vac can be lethal!
2. Follow all applicable local and national electrical and safety codes.
3. Install the device in an electrical enclosure (panel or junction box) or in a limited access electrical room.
4. Verify that circuit voltages and currents are within the proper range for the DINgate module.
5. Ensure that the DINgate is placed behind fuses or circuit breakers.
6. Equipment must be disconnected from the HAZARDOUS LIVE voltages before access.
7. Before applying power, check that all the wires are securely installed by tugging on each wire.
8. Do not install the DINgate module where it may be exposed to temperatures below –20°C or above 70°C,
excessive moisture, dust, salt spray, or other contamination. The device requires an environment no worse
than pollution degree 2 (normally only non-conductive pollution; occasionally, a temporary conductivity
caused by condensation must be expected).
9. Do not drill mounting holes in the device. Click the module on a DIN Rail instead.
10. If the DINgate device is installed incorrectly, the safety protections may be impaired.

2Technical description
The Xemex DINgate TM device is a communication gateway with a 2-wire RS485 interface. An optical interface can
be used for configuration purposes.
It has following interfaces:
•Main power connection 230V
•2-wire RS485 Communication Interface
•Optical Interface (IR)
•User Interface - LEDs
•SIM card slot (for 2FF SIMs)
•LTE antenna connection (SMA)
The DINgate TM gateway module is able to setup a transparent IP link between a server application and an RS485
device connected to the gateway. Data send over LTE is forwarded transparently to the RS485 interface and vice
versa.
The IDNgate TM also incorporates a management application interface that can be accessed locally via the IR port, or
remotely via GSM communication. It can be used to manage settings and perform firmware updates.
