Commissioning
Gigabit Ethernet Micro Switch

For devices with integrated 230 VAC power supply the installation must be done only by qualified
professionals. The correct assignment of the L- and N-wires and the earthing has to be respected
(according to the drawing on the type label).

For devices with 48 VDC power supply the correct polarity (+/- clamp description) has to be respected.

Earthing of the device is always required.

Installation and power supply

After connecting the power supply the switch is ready for operation with default values.

Reset of the switch

For some features there are two buttons under the label field of the switch (see drawing). By pressing the
reset button (hardware reset) the memory and the MAC table are erased and all connections are reinitialized.
The complete configuration of the device (switch and management) remains unchanged.

Reset to factory default values

Assigning an IP address

Use of the “IP Config Tool”

If the “factory defaults” button is pressed during a hardware reset, the configuration of the switch is set back
to factory defaults. The individual TCP/IP settings and the device name remain unchanged. The reset must be
released first and the factory defaults button has to be hold until the reset cycle of the switch is completed
(status visible on LED-display).

For the commissioning of the network management the switch must be configured with a valid IP address.
This can be done automatically via DHCP (factory default) or manual by using the “Switch IP Config Tool” or
the “nmp Software”.

The “Switch IP Config Tool” is on our web page www.MICROSENS.com available for downloading. After
installation at first the network interface used of the PC has to be selected. For the further steps the devices
to be configured must be in the same subnet like the PC.

With the button “MAC-based Device Discovery” all Micro Switches in the same segment are detected and
listed.
This list gives the possibility to assign an IP address to each switch.

Alternatively it is possible to generate an IP request at the switch. For this the reset button (see figure)

User Levels for Management Access

After the successful IP configuration the network management can be accessed via web and Telnet. The
following user levels are available as default:
