3. Assembly, startup procedure
and dismantling
3.1 UNPACKING, CHECKING
Check whether the package was deliver-
ed complete (see scope of delivery).
Check the individual parts for transport
damage.
z
Warning!
Use only undamaged parts!
3.2 ASSEMBLY
The equipment is delivered in a ready-to-
operate condition. The following procedure
is appropriate for assembly:
Check whether the switch pre-setting
suits your requirements (see chap. 1.7).
Pull the terminal block off the RS2-…/…
and wire up the supply voltage and indica-
tor lines.
Fit the RS2-…/… on a 35 mm standard
bar to DIN EN 50 022.
Attach the upper snap-on slide bar of
the RS2-…/… to the standard bar and press
it down until it locks in position.
Fit the signal lines and if required the
control line.
Always connect the main line and the
redundant line to port 1 of the RS-…/… for
the redundant coupling of ring structures.
Notes:
– The front panel of the RS2-…/… is groun-
ded via a separate ground connection.
– Do not open the housing.
– The shielding ground of the twisted pair
lines which can be connected is electrical-
ly connected to the front panel.

3.3 STARTUP PROCEDURE
You start up the RS2-…/… by connecting
the supply voltage via the 5-pin terminal
block. Lock the terminal block with the
locking screw at the side.
3.4 BASIC SETTINGS
On the first installation of the RS2 you have
to enter the IP addresse(s). The RS2 provi-
des 4 possibilities to configure the IP
addresses (refer to RS2 manual):
– Configuration via BOOTP (bootstrap pro-
tocol)
– Configuration via DHCP (dynamic host
configuration protocol)
– Input via the V.24 interface
– AutoConfiguration Adapter
3.5 DISMANTLING
To take the RS2-…/… off the ISO/DIN
rail, insert a screwdriver horizontally under
the housing into the locking slide, pull it
(without tipping the screwdriver) down-
wards and lift the RS2-…/… upwards.
4. Management
4.1 INTODUCTION
The RS2-…/… supports SNMP and Web-
based management and thus offers a exten-
sive diagnosis and configuration functions
for an easy startup procedure as well as
extensive network- and device information.
The RS2-…/… supports the TCP/IP protocol
family.
You will find detailed descriptions regarding
the SNMP management, functionality of the
User Interface, web interface, system moni-
tors, software update and Management
Information Base MIB in the RS2-…/…
manual.
4.2 SNMP MANAGEMENT
Factory settings: All parameters which can
be adjusted via management are pre-set to
default values. You will find detailed
descriptions in the RS2-…/… manual.
4.3 USER INTERFACE
The User Interface (UI) can be used in addi-
tion to the web interface.
On the first installation of the RS2-…/… you
have to enter IP addresse(s). If you do not
have a VT100 terminal near the installation
place at your disposal, you can enter the IP
addresses before the final installation. For
that you need a VT100 terminal or a corre-
sponding emulation (e.g. MS windows ter-
minal).
The User Interface starts after pressing any
key.
State of delivery: password „private“
– System parameters
Among others various addresses can be
entered in the window presented on the
screen (IP address, netmask, gateway IP
address) and the IP configuration mode can
be selected.
4.4 WEB-BASED INTERFACE
In order to open the Web-based interface
you need a Web browser (program which
enables to read hypertext), for example the
Netscape Navigator/Communicator or the
Microsoft Internet Explorer from version 4.x
on.
Note:
The Web-based interface uses the
plugin "Java runtime environment version
1.3". If this is not installed on your compu-
ter, an installation via the internet is started
automatically on the first start of the Web-
based interface. This installation takes a lot
of time. For Windows NT users: Because of
that stop the installation. Install the plugin
from the enclosed CDROM. For that start
the program file j2re1_3_0-win-i.exe in the
Java table on the CDROM.
The web interface is used to access the
object classes of the MIBs via a standard
web browser. Access to the web interface is
protected by a password. If you do not
enter a password, only read access to the
RS2-…/… is possible.
Factory setting: password „private“
4.5 SYSTEM MONITORS
System monitor 1
The system monitor 1 is used to load the
operating system via the V.24 interface. It is
required only for service purposes. The
system monitor 1 is available immediately
after the system start (at 9,600 baud).
It offers the following functions:
– Update Operating System: Update the
operating system via X modem/CRC pro-
tocol
– Start System: Start operating system and
applications
– Change Baudrate
– End: Quit the monitor program and restart
the system.
System monitor 2
The system monitor 2 is used to update the
complete operating software of the RS2-
…/… via V.24 or via the network. It is availa-
ble after loading the operating system (at
9,600 baud).
When the software update is started via the
User Interface the monitor is opened
directly.
It offers the following functions:
– Software Update V.24: Update of the ope-
rating software
– Software Update tftp: Update of the ope-
rating software.
Note:
The tftp path has to be defined cor-
rectly before the update.
– Cancel Automatic Update: Cancel the
update process
– Change Baudrate
– Restore Factory Settings: The factory set-
tings (without system parameters) replace
a previously saved configuration.
– Reset: RS2-…/… boot again
– End: Quit the monitor program, causes to
load the management software.
