– Ethernet and CAN
– The requisite line lengths of the Ethernet TX, Ethernet FX and CAN TX and CAN FX
cables are less than their maximum length.
– The entire peripherals and their cabling in the individual panels are planned.
– Network planning
– All IP addresses and network settings for the individual panels and additional
network components are planned and at your disposal.
– An overview of the additional components to be installed, such as Ethernet switches
and media converters, and their cabling with neighboring panels is at your disposal.
– An overview of the network topology to be installed is at your disposal.
– All network redundancy settings have been planned and are at your disposal.
10.1 Settings on media converter
Only a few steps are required to use the media converter:
– Set the DIP switches.
– Connect the media converter to the FX network cables and CAT5e network cables.
– Supply the media converter with power via the internal BCM battery controller module.
Notice!
The media converters are only supplied with power via power supply terminal 1.
The error LED on the media converter is therefore continuously lit. However, this does not
affect the functionality of the device.
Notice!
Use only the following cables for networking:
Ethernet cable
Ethernet patch cable, shielded, CAT5e or better.
Note the minimum bending radii specified in the cable specification.
Fiber optic cable
Multi-mode: fiber optic Ethernet patch cable, duplex I‑VH2G 50/125μ or duplex I‑VH2G
62.5/125μ, SC plug.
Single mode: fiber optic Ethernet patch cable, duplex I-VH2E 9/125μ
Note the minimum bending radii specified in the cable specification.
Notice!
Refer to the installation guides for the mounting kits for information on how to install a media
converter in the housing of a panel: FPM 5000 KMC (F.01U.266.845) FPM‑5000‑KES
(F.01U.266.844)
Notice!
The maximum transmission section for multimode media converters via FX is 2000m.
The maximum transmission section for single mode media converters via FX is 40km.
Using the DIP switches, configure the media converter as shown in the following figure.
Notice!
Only change the DIP switch settings on media converters when they are de-energized.
