Grounding the EtherDevice Switch
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the
ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
nded to be mounted to a well-grounded
mounting surface such as a metal panel.
Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs
The two 2-contact terminal block connectors on the EDS's top panel are
used for the EDS's two DC power inputs. Top and front views of the
terminal block connectors are shown here.
STEP 1:
Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the V
-/V+
To keep the DC wires from pulling loose, use a small
flat
-blade screwdriver to tighten the wire-
clamp screws on
the front of the t
erminal block connector.
Insert the plastic terminal block connector prongs into the
terminal block receptor, which is located on EDS’s top
panel.
Before connecting the EtherDevice
Switch to the DC power
inputs, make sure the DC power source voltage is stable.
