3.3.7.3. Settings / Peripherals - Analog inputs
3.3.7.3.1. Temperature, temp. and humidity, temp. and ambient light sensors
Temperature, TDE temperature, temperature and humidity, temperature and ambient light sensors
can be attached to the ePowerSwitch 8M+
R2
to monitor environmental conditions.
You can connect a sensor to the RJ45 connector on the ePowerSwitch
*
8M+
R2
or behind an xBus
peripheral already connected to the ePowerSwitch 8M+
R2
(Daisy Chain Connection).
To connect a sensor to the ePowerSwitch 8M+
R2
, use following procedure:
1. Set the dip switches of the sensor so that the selected I/O address does not conflict with another
sensor already installed (see user's guide of the corresponding sensor).
- Do NOT connect the xBus cable before setting its DIP switches
- Do NOT use the same address for two different sensors
2. Using a standard RJ45 network cable, connect the sensor to the RJ45 xBus connector on the
ePowerSwitch
*
8M+
R2
or behind another xBus peripheral already connected to the ePowerSwitch
8M+
R2
.
To configure the sensor, use following Log in procedure:
1. Open you browser and log in to the Administrator's Configuration Page,
(ex.
http://192.168.100.200/sysadmin.htm
).
2. Enter the administrator name and password (default for both = admin). The home page appears.
3. Click on the Settings and then on the Peripherals Tab.
If the sensor is properly connected to the ePowerSwitch 8M+
R2
it will be automatically recognized and
displayed on this page after a delay of up to 60 seconds. In this case, the colour of the corresponding Edit
and Info symbol is red.
The Peripheral page is not automatically refreshed, so you need to refresh it by clicking the
peripheral TAB again (or push [F5] or press <CTRL-R> on your keyboard if you use Internet
Explorer or Mozilla Firefox).
