Installation

Material List

•  QWL2040 Panel 
• 

External Power Supply

Wall Mounting

The Panel is designed for wall mounting using four #10 pan head screws. 

The unit MUST be powered down while mounting to the wall. 

When selecting a location to mount the Panel, be sure to allow space for cable connections. 

Locate the Panel away from excessive dust, heat sources, moisture or direct sunlight. The ideal environment is a server 

room. The temperature of the room should not exceed 77ºF (25ºC); good ventilation is mandatory to provide sufficient air 

cooling.

Wiring Access Port

The Panel comes with a one-inch wiring access port pre-drilled in the top of the unit. Drilling into the unit to add additional 

wiring access ports is at your own risk. Use caution when drilling into the unit; be sure to capture all metal shavings. 

The unit MUST be powered down while drilling into the unit.

Factory IP Network Address Configuration

The Panel is typically purchased pre-configured to customer-specific IP networks and no additional software configuration 

is required. If your Panel was purchased without pre-configuration, it will be shipped with DHCP client enabled. 
The IP network configuration page is accessible through a web browser via a computer, e.g., a laptop, that is physically 

connected to the unit with a standard RJ-45 Ethernet cable. Contact your network administrator to determine the local IP 

address (refer to the MAC address available on the product label).
