Omnitron Systems Technology iConverter 10/100M2 Standalone Module - Manual (Page 2)

To power the unit using the AC/DC adapter, connect the AC/DC adapter to the AC
outlet. Then connect the barrel plug at the end of the wire on the AC/DC adapter to
the 2.5mm DC barrel connector (center-positive) on the chassis. Confirm that the
unit has powered up properly by checking the power status LED located on the
front of the unit.
To power the unit using a DC power source, prepare a power cable using a two-
conductor insulated wire (not supplied) with a 14 AWG gauge minimum. Cut the
power cable to the length required. Strip approximately 3/8 of an inch of insulation
from the power cable wires. Connect the power cables to the standalone unit by
fastening the stripped ends to the DC power connector.
Connect the power wires to the DC power source. The Power LED should indicate
the presence of power.
WARNING: Note the wire colors used in making the positive and negative
connections. Use the same color assignment for the connection at the DC
power source.
NOTE: If mounting with a safety ground attachment, use the safety ground
screw at the rear of the unit.
b. When using a 10/100M2 SFP model (8919N-0), insert the SFP Fiber transceiver
into the Port 1 SFP receptacle on the 10/100M2.
NOTE: The release latch of the SFP Fiber transceiver must be in the closed
(up) position before insertion.
c. Connect the UTP port via a Category 5 cable to a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX
Ethernet device.
d. Connect an appropriate multimode or single-mode fiber cable to the fiber port of
the installed module. It is important to ensure that the transmit (TX) is attached to
the receive side of the device at the other end and the receive (RX) is attached to
the transmit side. Single-fiber (SF) media converter models operate in pairs. The
TX wavelength must match the RX wavelength at the other end and the RX
wavelength must match the TX wavelength at the other end.
3) CONFIGURE MODULE VIA COMMAND LINE INTERFACE
To access the Command Line Interface (CLI), connect the 10/100M2 RS-232 Console
Port to the COM port of a computer equipped with terminal emulation software such
as HyperTerminal. The Console Port (DCE) is a mini DIN-6 female connector which
can be changed to a DB-9 connector with the included adapter. The 10/100M2 Console
Port is a standard asynchronous serial interface.
Start HyperTerminal and select the correct COM Port in the HyperTerminal “Connect
To:” window. Set the serial port to the following:
Bits Per Second 57,600
Stop Bits 1
Data Bits 8
Parity NONE
Hardware Flow Control NONE
Once connected, press <ENTER> to bring up a command line prompt on the attached
PC. A new 10/100M2 module does not have a password, and will skip the Password
Entry screen and go straight to the Management Options screen. If a password has
been set, the Password Entry screen will be displayed. Type the password and press
<ENTER>, the 10/100M2 will respond with the Management Options screen:
Half-Duplex. Setting this DIP-switch to Full-Duplex “FDX” facilitates a connection that
supports Full-Duplex operation.
SW3 - UTP AUTO/MANUAL
When this DIP-switch is in the UTP Auto Negotiate “AN” position (factory default), the UTP
port automatically determines the speed and duplex mode of the connecting UTP device.
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-switch is in the Auto Negotiate “AN” position and the
UTP 10/100 DIP-switch is in the “100” position, the UTP port auto-negotiates to 100Mbps
or 10Mbps. When in the “10” position, the UTP port only operates at 10Mbps
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-switch is in the Auto Negotiate “AN” position, and the
UTP Full/Half-Duplex DIP-switch is in the Full-Duplex “FDX” position, the UTP port
auto negotiates to Full or Half-Duplex. When in the Half-Duplex “HDX” position, the
UTP port functions only in Half-Duplex.
SW4 - UTP 10/100Mbps
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-switch is in the manual “Man” position, the “10/100"
DIP-switch determines the speed of operation for the UTP port.
SW5 - UTP FULL/HALF DUPLEX
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-switch is in the manual “Man” position, the UTP
Full/Half-Duplex “FDX/HDX” DIP-switch determines the duplex operation mode
of the UTP port.
SW6, SW7, SW8 - LINK MODES
The module supports multiple link modes for fault detection and isolation. Link Segment
should be used for the initial installation of the module. Once installed and operational,
the link mode can be modified.

2) INSTALL STANDALONE MODULE AND CONNECT CABLES
a. The 10/100M2 Network Interface Device (NID) is available in tabletop and wall-
mounting models. For wall-mounting, attach the NID to a wall, backboard or other
flat surfaces. For tabletop installations, place the unit on a flat level surface. Attach
the rubber feet to the bottom of the NID to prevent the unit from sliding. Make sure
the unit is placed in a safe, dry and secure location.
