ASCO 5010 Remote Display Unit
7
Figure 3
shows the ASCO 5010 RDU connectors as follows:
a.
RJ45
–
used for both communication & power sourcing the unit (PoE – power over the Ethernet cable coming from
ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meter). By factory default, the ASCO 5010 RDU is ready for connecting to
any ASCO 5400 Series unit at the LCD port. A simple CAT5e/6 cable connecting directly between the ASCO
5010 RDU and ASCO 5450 and 5490 LAN2/LCD port will automatically power up, connect and open the main
menu screen relevant for that specific ASCO 5400 Series PQM currently connected. Remote connectivity
(through an IP network) is also applicable but requires configuration as described later in this manual.
b.
DC 48V – Used for alternative power source (for remote connectivity when PoE is not available)
c.
RS485/422 – Used in industrial applications for multi-drop series communication when IP networking is not
available.
