CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT

Grounding the Moxa Industrial Rackmount 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.

NOTE Using a shielded cable achieves better electromagnetic compatibility.

Connecting the Power Inputs
The RKS-G4028 Series switches support various types of power supply.

• LV models provide one 24/48 VDC power input
• 2LV models provide two 24/28 VDC power inputs
• HV models provide one 110/220 VDC/VAC power input
• 2HV models provide two 110/220 VDC/VAC power inputs
• PoE models provide 1 EPS (external power supplies) with 48 VDC power inputs

Wiring Requirements

WARNING
Do not disconnect modules or wires unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous. The device may only be connected to the supply voltage shown on the type plate. The device is designed for operation with a Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) or an isolated power supply, which means that they may only be connected to the supply voltage connections and to the signal contact with a SELV or an isolated power supply in compliance with IEC 62368-1/EN 62368-1/UL 62368-1 or UL 61010.

Power Terminal Blocks
The connection for EPS (external power supply) / PWR1 (power supply 1) and PWR2 (power supply 2) are located on the front panel as shown below.

PoE Models

HV Models

LV Models

PoE Models Power Terminal Blocks

1. Insert the negative/positive (-/+) DC wires into the terminals.
2. Insert the terminal block connector prongs into the terminal block receptor.

HV Models Power Terminal Blocks

1. Insert the line/neutral/ground (L/N/Ground) AC/DC wires into the terminals.
2. Insert the terminal block connector prongs into the terminal block receptor.

LV Models Power Terminal Blocks

1. Insert the negative/positive (-/+) DC wires into the terminals.
2. Insert the terminal block connector prongs into the terminal block receptor.

NOTE In order to have higher levels of protection against surge, it is suggested to install a surge protector in front of the power input of the PoE powered device so that it is suitable for use in IEC 61850 conditions.

NOTE When wiring the power input, we suggest using the cable type – AWG (American Wire Gauge) 16-20 (1.31-0.519 mm2) and the corresponding pin type cable terminals. The rated temperature of wiring should be at least 105°C.

NOTE When wiring the PoE power input, we suggest using the cable type – AWG (American Wire Gauge) 16 (1.31 mm2) and the corresponding pin type cable terminals. The rated temperature of wiring should be at least 105°C.

NOTE When wiring the grounding connector screw, we suggest using the cable type – AWG (American Wire Gauge) 16 (1.31 mm2) and the corresponding pin type cable terminals. The rated temperature of wiring should be at least 105°C.

NOTE When HV models are connected with an AC power source, please make sure the Ground wire is well connected. NOTE When your purchase a device with two power modules, both power units will be activated simultaneously, which will enable power redundancy.

NOTE The reverse power input connection will not activate the device or PoE input.

Wiring the Relay Contact
Each power module has one relay output that can be used to detect user- configured events. Two wires are attached to the relay pins with ‘Normally Closed’ and ‘Normally Open’ options.

1. Insert the wires into the terminals.
2. Insert the terminal block connector prongs into the terminal block receptor.

FAULT:
The relay contact of the 2-pin terminal block connector is used to detect user-configured events. The two wires attached to the fault contacts form an open circuit when a user-configured event is triggered. If a user-configured event does not occur, the fault circuit remains closed.

USB Connection
Use Moxa’s USB Automatic Backup Configurator ABC-02-USB to connect to the USB host port to backup and restore configuration files, auto-load configuration files, upgrade firmware, and backup system log files.

Type A

Console Port Connection
The RKS device has one RJ45 console port (RS-232), located on the front panel. Use an RJ45-based cable to connect the RKS’s console port to your PC’s COM port. You may then use a console terminal program, such as Moxa PComm Terminal Emulator, to access the RKS device that has a baud rate of 115200. Refer to the following table figure for the pin definition.

The Reset Button
Depress the Reset button for five continuous seconds to load the factory default settings. Use a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip or toothpick, to depress the Reset button. When you do so, the STATE LED will start to blink about once per second. Continue to depress the STATE LED until it begins blinking more rapidly; this indicates that the button has been depressed for five seconds and you can release the Reset button to load factory default settings.

NOTE Do NOT power off the switch when loading default settings

Placing the Round Stickers on Module Screws
Moxa offers eight round stickers in the shipment package. These stickers are to be placed on the screws of the modules to avoid unauthorized persons accessing the modules. If the stickers are broken, users will know the modules have been accessed by unauthorized persons. The figure below highlights the locations of the screws.

Follow these steps to place the stickers.

1. Use a cloth to clean the surface of the screws with 75% alcohol solution.
2. We suggest you use a tweezer to place the stickers.
3. Press the stickers down with 15PSI (pound per square inch) for at least 15 seconds.
4. Keep the device at room temperature for 24 hours before deploying the devices in harsh environments.

NOTE

1. Place the stickers carefully as they are thin and fragile.
2. The ideal environment for the stickers to be stored in is 22°C (72°F) and 50% relative humidity.
3. Keep the extra two stickers in a safe place so that no unauthorized persons can access them.

Rack Mounting Instructions

1. Elevated Operating Ambient: If installed in a closed or multi- unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, . consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
   NOTE In order to ensure reliable operations, please make sure the operating temp. of the environment does not exceed the spec. When mounting an RKS-G4028 rack-mounted switch with other operating units in a cabinet without forced ventilation, it is recommended that 1U of space is reserved between each rack-mounted switch and/or device.

2. Reduced Air Flo w : Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

3. Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

4. Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

5. Reliable Grounding: Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips). Make sure the grounding screw of the device has been connected by a 16 AWG (min.) green-and-yellow wire to the rack, and the protective terminal of the rack has connected to the earth ground.

ATTENTION
When installing the device onto a rack, make sure that the input terminal block and protective terminal do not connect, or it may cause an electric shock.

NOTE The rackmount ears can be equipped on the front or rear of Moxa RKS-G4028/RKS-G4028-L3 switch.
