Wiring the Relay Output

The relay output alarm contacts are in the middle of

the terminal block connector as shown in figure-3.

By inserting the wires and settings the DIP switch

of the respective alarm function to “ON”, relay

output alarm will detect port or power fault, and form

a short circuit. The alarm relay output is “Normal Open”. See, Figure -2.

Wiring the Earth Ground

In an industrial environment, there might be devices

that generate electromagnetic noise, such as AC

motors, electric welding machine, or a power

generator. These devices will generate electric

noise or surges that might disturb communications.

To prevent those noises, the device should be well earthed. In the Figure- 3 shows how to make

connection.

Connecting to Network

1. Connecting the Ethernet Ports: Connect one end of an Ethernet cable into the UTP port of

MCI-211G, while the other end is connected to the attached networking device. The UTP ports

support auto MDI/MDIX function. The Speed LED will turn on for 1000M link and blinking for

100Mbps link; the LNK/ACT LED will turn on for link up and blinking for packet transmits and

receives.

2. Install Gigabit SFP transceiver and make the connection:

Connect the fiber port on your MCI-211G to another Gigabit Fiber Ethernet device, by following the

figure below. Wrong connection will cause the fiber port not working properly.

Maximum 1A current / DC 24V
