Reset Button
The reset button is used to load factory defaults. Use a pointed object such as a straightened paper clip to hold the reset button down for five seconds. Release the reset button when the Ready LED stops blinking
Hardware Installation Procedure
STEP 1: Connect the power adapter. Connect the 12-48 VDC power line or
DIN-rail power supply with the MGate 5101-PBM-MN device’s terminal block. Make
sure the adapter is connected to an earthed socket.
STEP 2: Use a PROFIBUS cable to connect the unit to a PROFIBUS slave
device.
STEP 3: Connect the unit to the Modbus TCP device.
STEP 4: The MGate 5101-PBM-MN series is designed to be attached to a DIN
rail or mounted on a wall. For DIN-rail mounting, push down the spring and
properly attach it to the DIN-rail until it “snaps” into place. For wall
mounting, install the wall-mount kit (optional) first and then screw the
device onto the wall
Wall or Cabinet Mounting
Two metal plates are provided for mounting the unit on a wall or inside a
cabinet. Attach the plates to the unit’s rear panel with screws. With the
plates attached, use screws to mount the unit on a wall. The heads of the
screws should be 5 to 7 mm in diameter, the shafts should be 3 to 4 mm in
diameter, and the length of the screws should be more than 10.5 mm.
For each screw, the head should be 6 mm or less in diameter, and the shaft
should be 3.5 mm or less in diameter.
