Installing the SEC Unit
The SEC mounts on a standard DIN rail. The serial connection of the SEC must connect to a
serial connector on the Microlok II unit using the proper cable, so the unit should be mounted
no more than 50 feet away from the Microlok II unit.
1. Snap the SEC onto the DIN rail.
NOTE
Because of serial and power cable limitations, the SEC
should be located no further than 50 feet away from the
Microlok II unit and the intended power source to which it
will be connected.
2. With the On/Off rocker switch on the front of the SEC in the OFF position, insert the four-
pin WAGO connector into its socket on the front of the SEC. Connect the power source
by inserting the power leads into the WAGO connector (

).
3. Connect the serial cable to the Microlok II unit, and then to the SEC (

Figure 3-3

).
4. Apply power to the SEC by placing the On/Off rocker switch on the front of the SEC in the
ON position.
5. Insert one end of an Ethernet crossover cable to the Ethernet connector of the SEC and
the other end to the Network Interface Connector on the PC you will be using to configure
the SEC unit (

).
NOTE
An Ethernet crossover cable must be used to connect the
SEC to the PC.
6. Configure Internet Explorer on the PC for accessing the SEC configuration screens. See
Section

for the procedure.
7. Configure the SEC using the PC. See Section
X
3.7
X
through Section

for the
procedures.
8. Disconnect the PC from the SEC by removing the Ethernet crossover cable from the SEC
and connect the SEC to the network using a standard Ethernet cable.
