Wiring the Digital Inputs
The IE-SW-PL06M-2TX-4PoE has two sets of digital inputs, DI 1 and DI 2.
Each DI consists of two contacts of the 6-pin terminal block connector on the
top panel, which are used for the two DC inputs. 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
┴
/I1 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 Ethernet switch’s top
panel.
Turbo Ring DIP Switch Settings
The IE-SW-PL06M-2TX-4PoE is a plug-and-play managed redundant Ethernet
switch. The proprietary Turbo Ring protocol was developed to provide better
network reliability and faster recovery time. 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 that can
help setup 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.
NOTE
Refer to the
Turbo Ring DIP Switch
section and
Using
Communication Redundancy
section in the User’s Manual for
detailed information about the settings and usage of
Turbo Ring
and
Turbo Ring V2
.
