Wiring the Digital Inputs
The EDS-P510A-8PoE has one digital input. The DI consists of two
contacts on the terminal block connector on the EDS-P510A-8PoE’s
top-right panel. The top and front views of one of the terminal block
connectors are shown here.
STEP 1:
Insert the negative (ground)/positive DI wires
into the
┴
/I terminals, respectively.
STEP 2:
To keep the DI wires from pulling loose, use a
small flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the wire-clamp
screws on the front of the terminal block connector.
STEP 3:
Insert the plastic terminal block connector
prongs into the terminal block receptor, which is
located on the EDS-P510A-8PoE’s top panel.
Turbo Ring DIP Switch Settings
EDS-P510A-8PoE series switches are plug-and-play managed redundant
Ethernet switches. The proprietary Turbo Ring protocol was developed by
Moxa to provide better network reliability and faster recovery time. Moxa
Turbo Ring’s recovery time is less than 300 ms (
Turbo Ring
) or 20 ms
(
Turbo Ring V2
) —compared to a 3- to 5-minute recovery time for
commercial switches—decreasing the possible loss caused by network
failures in an industrial setting.
There are 4 Hardware DIP Switches for Turbo Ring on the top panel of
EDS-P510A-8PoE that can help set up the Turbo Ring easily within
seconds. If you do not want to use a hardware DIP switch to setup the
Turbo Ring, you can use a web browser, telnet, or console to disable this
function.
