Grounding the Ethernet Switch
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the
ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
ATTENTION
This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded
mounting surface such as a metal panel.
Wiring the Relay Contact
The IE-SW-PL06M-2TX-4PoE has two sets of relay outputs-relay 1 and
relay 2. Each relay contact uses two contacts of the terminal block on the
top panel. Refer to the next section for detailed instructions on how to
connect the wires to the terminal block connector, and how to attach the
terminal block connector to the terminal block receptor.
In this section, we illustrate the meaning of the two contacts used to connect
the relay contact.
FAULT
:
The two sets of relay contacts of the
6-pin terminal block connector are
used to detect user-configured
events. The two wires attached to
the fault contacts form an open
circuit when a user-configured
event is triggered. If a
user-configured event does not
occur, the fault circuit remains
closed.
Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs
The IE-SW-PL06M-2TX-4PoE has two sets of power inputs—power input 1
and power input 2. The top two contacts and the bottom two contacts of the
6-pin terminal block connector on the top panel are used for the two digital
inputs. The top and front views of one of the terminal block connectors are
shown here.
STEP 1
: Insert the
negative/positive DC wires into the
V-/V+ terminals, respectively.
STEP 2
: To keep the DC 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 top panel.
