Product Usage Instructions

To ensure safe and proper usage of the VeriSafe Network Module, please follow the instructions below:

Safety Precautions:

  • Read and comply with all the safety information and warnings provided in the user manual to prevent product failure, electrical shock, severe injury, or death.
  • Install the equipment in an enclosure that provides a degree of protection not less than IP 54 in accordance with IEC 60079-0.
  • Ensure that the enclosure can only be accessed with the use of a tool.
  • Use surge protection for the power supply, or install external surge protection at the input to the supply.

Installation Requirements: The VeriSafe Network Module requires a DC power input and an AVT connection. Follow the steps below for installation:

  1. Ensure that the power supply is surge protected or install external surge protection at the input to the supply.
  2. Connect the DC power input to the appropriate power source.
  3. Connect the AVT connection to the AVT isolation module or other compatible devices using a 10/100 P0E network connection.
  4. Verify that the termination resistor switch below the AVT connection ports on the network module and AVT isolation module is positioned to the right (factory default) when facing the port.
  5. Check that the system status and power status indicators are functioning properly.
  6. If necessary, refer to document B21176 (VS2-Net User Guide) for instructions on utilizing VS2-NET functions, accessing the web interface, and logging/reporting data from the connected 2.0 AVT system.
  7. Regularly check for updates to the network module firmware and user guide on the official website (www.panduit.com).

For any additional information or inquiries, refer to the user manual or contact PanduitTM technical support.

The network module is designed to be an optional accessory that enables network capabilities for the VeriSafe 2.0 Absence of Voltage Tester (AVT). The network module provides an integrated web application that is delivered by an on board web server. The web application monitors data from the AVT and provides integration, configuration and firmware update capabilities. The network module supports AVT data over EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP protocols. The voltage presence discrete outputs may be used as an indication of voltage presence with or without a network connection. The network module provides the ability to log various pieces of data based on built intriggers (see VeriSafe Network Module User Guide, document no. B21176, for more information).
