Installing the EDS2100
Be sure to place the device on a flat horizontal or vertical surface. The device comes with
mounting brackets for mounting the device vertically, for example on a wall. If using AC power,
avoid outlets controlled by a wall switch.
Observe the following guidelines when connecting the serial devices:
The EDS2100 serial ports support RS-232/422/485 devices.
The null modem cable is the best cable to connect the serial port to another DTE device. The
straight-though (modem) cable is the best cable to connect the serial port to a DCE device.
Power-up the device by using the Barrel-power connector only. The barrel-power connector
supports a power range of 9 to 30 VDC.
Note: As soon as you plug the device into power, the device powers up automatically,
the self-test begins, and Evolution OS™ starts.
Perform the following steps to install your device which are numbered in Figure 4-8 also.
1. Connect a serial device to your unit.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable between the EDS2100 RJ45 port and your Ethernet network.
3. Plug the EDS2100 into the power outlet by using the power supply that was included in the
packaging. The required input voltage is 9-30 VDC (center +) with1.5W maximum power
required.
