MGate 5111 Getting Started
2-2
Connecting the Power
1. The unit can be powered by connecting a power source to the terminal block.
2. The power input range is from 12 to 48 VDC.
To remove the wire from the terminal block, use a flathead screwdriver to push the orange slot next to the
terminal block hole, and then pull the wire out.
Note that the unit does not have an on/off switch. It automatically turns on when it receives power. The PWR
LED on the front panel will glow to indicate that the unit is receiving power. There are two DC power inputs for
redundancy.
Connecting PROFIBUS Devices
The unit’s PROFIBUS port(s) are located on the front panel. Use a PROFIBUS cable to directly connect the unit
to a PROFIBUS PLC or other PROFIBUS master.
For the PROFIBUS port pin assignments, please refer to the
Pin Assignments section. This information can
then be used to construct your own PROFIBUS cable.
Connecting Serial Devices
The unit’s serial port(s) are located on the front panel. If you are connecting an RS-485 multidrop network with
multiple devices, note the following:
• All devices that are connected to a single serial port must use the same protocol (i.e., either Modbus RTU
or Modbus ASCII).
For serial port pin assignments, refer to the Pin Assignments section.
Connecting to a Host or the Network
Two 10/100 BaseT Ethernet ports are located on the gateway’s front panel. These ports are used to connect the
unit to a host or Ethernet network, as follows:
• For normal operation, use a standard straight-through Ethernet cable to connect the unit to your Modbus
TCP, EtherNet/IP, or PROFINET network.
• For initial configuration or for troubleshooting purposes, you may connect the unit directly to a PC.
The unit’s Link LED will light up to indicate a live Ethernet connection.
Installing the Software (Optional)
The Device Search Utility (DSU) can be downloaded from Moxa’s website: www.moxa.com. The DSU can be
used to connect the MGate with the PC. For additional details, refer to
Chapter 3: Device Search Utility.
