Connecting the Power
The MC-7130-MP comes with a 100 to 240 VAC power input, and also has a 24 VDC power input (via the
terminal block). If power is supplied properly, the Power LED will light up.
For safety reasons, please use cables with the following specifications:

Grounding the MC-7130-MP
Grounding and careful 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 the power.
ATTENTION
This product is intended to be mounted on a well-grounded surface, such as a metal panel.
Earthing/Grounding Wire: See the figure shown below for the location of the earth ground on the terminal block
power connector. Connect the EG wire to an appropriately grounded metal surface.
Connecting Data Transmission Cables
This section describes how to connect the MC-7130-MP computer to the network and/or serial devices.
Connecting to the Network
Plug your network cable into the computer’s Ethernet port. The other end of the cable should be plugged into
your Ethernet networking device. When the cable is properly connected, the LEDs on the embedded computer’s
Ethernet port will glow to indicate a valid connection.
The 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet LAN ports use 8-pin RJ45 connectors. The following diagram shows the
pinouts for these ports.
