To configure the device via the serial interface. There are two options:
– A PC is connected directly to the serial interface of the device (via the serial interface of
the PC). The PC user can then use a terminal program to configure the device via the
command line.
– Or a modem is connected to the serial interface of the device. This modem is connected
to the telephone network (fixed-line or GSM network). The user of a remote PC, which
is also connected to the telephone network via a modem, can then establish a PPP
(Point-to Point Protocol) dial-up line connection to the device and configure it via a web
browser.
To manage data traffic via the serial interface instead of via the WAN interface of the de-
vice. In this case, a modem should be connected to the serial interface.
11.3.3 Installation in a 19" frame/industrial cabinet
The mains connecting cables of the power supply units are used as mains disconnect
points. Sockets that can easily be accessed and that are close to the device must therefore
be used for the mains plug. Unplug the mains plug to disconnect the device from the mains.
If the device is installed in a control cabinet where the sockets cannot be accessed, an ad-
equate disconnecting device must be installed during installation (e.g., an approved discon-
nector).
Sufficient air circulation must be ensured. If several FL MGUARD CENTERPORT devices
are stacked, one or 19'' fan trays must be provided to discharge the accumulated warm air.
The control cabinets used must conform to the requirements of fire-protection casings and
mechanical protection according to EN 60950-1.
