Grounding the 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.

Connecting the Power Inputs

The IKS-G6524A/G6824A series of switches supports dual redundant power supplies: Power Supply 1 (PWR1) and Power Supply 2 (PWR2). The connections for PWR1 and PWR2 are located on the rear side (shown
below). Be sure to use a standard power cord with an IEC C13 connector, which is compatible with the AC power inlet.

Wiring the Relay Contact

Each IKS-G6524A/G6824A switch has one relay output.
FAULT:
The relay contact of the 4-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 Console Connection

The IKS-G6524A/G6824A series has one USB console port (type B connector), located on the top panel. Use the USB cable (provided in the product package) to connect the IKS-G6524A/G6824A’s console port to your PC’s USB port and install the USB driver (available in the software CD) on the PC. You may then use a console terminal program, such as Moxa PComm Terminal Emulator, to access the IKS-G6524A/G6824A’s console

USB Storage Connection

The IKS-G6524A/G6824A series has one USB storage port (type A connector) on the front panel. Use the Moxa ABC-02-USB automatic backup configurator to connect the IKS-G6524A/G6824A’s USB storage port for configuration backup, firmware upgrade, or system log file backup.

NOTE DO NOT pull out the ABC-02-USB automatic backup configurator from the USB port while writing or reading data.

The Reset Button

Press 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 press the Reset button. When you do so, the STATE LED will start to blink about once per second. Continue to press the STATE LED until it begins blinking more rapidly, indicating that the button has been pressed continuously for five seconds. You can now release the Reset button to load factory default settings

NOTE DO NOT power off the switch when loading default settings.

LED Indicators

The front panel of the IKS-G6524A/G6824A Series switch contains several LED indicators. The function of each LED is described in the following table.

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.
  2.  Reduced Air Flow: 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 Earthing: Reliable earthing 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).”

Restricted Access Locations

  • This equipment is intended to be used in Restricted Access Locations, such as a computer room, with access limited to SERVICE PERSONAL or USERS who have been instructed on how to handle the metal chassis of equipment that is so hot that special protection may be needed before touching it. The location should only be accessible with a key or through a security identity system.
  •  External metal parts of this equipment are extremely hot!! Before touching the equipment, you must take special precautions to protect your hands and body from serious injury.

ATTENTION

  1. This device is only for indoor use and Pollution degree 2.
  2.  Conductors rated to withstand at least 105°C must be used for the Power Supply Terminal.
  3.  When wiring the relay contact, digital input and power inputs, we suggest using the cable type – AWG (American Wire Gauge) 16-24 and the corresponding pin type cable terminals. The connector must be able to withstand torque at maximum 5 pound-inches.
  4.  The equipment has a separate protective earthing terminal on the chassis that must be permanently connected to earth ground to adequately ground the chassis and protect the operator from electrical hazards. To avoid risks of electric shock, do not replace or remove the protective conductor.
  5.  The IP rating is not part of the safety certification.
  6.  This device must be installed within a suitable enclosure.
  7.  The cable that is connected to the field wiring terminals must be able to withstand at least 75°C.

Responsible Risk
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. The manufacture is not responsible for any accident caused by the scenario mentioned above.
