5170 Quad-Ethernet Module Introduction 1-1
Introduction
The ASCO Catalog 5170 Quad-Ethernet Module (QEM) is a stand-alone Ethernet switch and data concentrator.
It allows users to communicate with the new family of devices made by ASCO Power Technologies over a local area
network (LAN) or over a secure Internet connection. If the 5170 QEM is provided on an ASCO 4000 or 7000 Series
Transfer Switch, it is designated as Accessory 72EE2.
Purpose of this Manual
This manual should be used to assist individuals who:
▪ will install and configure the 5170 QEM
▪ will monitor / control devices made by ASCO Power Technologies by using the 5170 QEM’s built-in web pages
▪ will communicate with ASCO Power Technologies products through the 5170 QEM by using a Modbus TCP-based
monitoring system (BMS or SCADA)
▪ will capture / read data from the 5170 QEM by using SNMP
For specific LAN details contact the LAN administrator or IT specialist.
If the 5170 QEM is provided as Acc. 72EE2 on an ASCO 4000 or 7000 Series transfer switch, refer to the transfer
switch installation manual, Group 5 controller user’s guide, and wiring diagram.
