EX5500 Controller Installation & Configuration Guide
9
(#1) Ethernet LAN Connection:
RJ-45 connector. In a configuration with a physical
Ethernet cable connection to the LAN, the network cable is attached here.
Permanent connection to a wired network is not mandatory. However, you must
have a wired connection to configure the EX5500 Controller. Some monitoring
functions are not available if the Controller is not wired. This connection is also used
for Power over Ethernet (PoE, 802.3af).
(#2) Power Jack:
Accepts an input voltage of 24-48V DC. This is a standard 2.5 mm
jack connector for direct power supply. The power adaptor is not supplied with the
Controller and can be purchased separately. When PoE is used, this connector
becomes redundant.
(#3) Chain IN/RS-232 Connector):
RJ-45 connector. This connector is used for
receiving power and data from chained Controllers. RS-232 is used as a console
interface with the Exciter Manager Application (to change IP for example). For this
option you need a special 10-pin RJ45 to DB9 serial cable (AeroScout PN
40031500000)
(#4) Chain OUT and Control Connector:
RJ-45 connector. This connector is used for
distributing power and data to chained Exciters and to connect the External LF
Antenna device. The output voltage is 12 V DC (0.5A maximum).
(#5) Termination Switch:
For defining the termination settings in a chained Exciters
installation. The default factory setting is Termination
On
(o-o). In a chained Exciters
installation, the termination of the first and last Exciter in the chain must be set to
On
(o-o) and the other Exciters set to
Off
(-o-o-).
(#6) IP Reset:
Restores the Controller's IP address to the company-set default value.
(#7) Relay Switch:
Keypad Relay.
