2.2. Mounting

The FS-X20 Series FieldServer is supplied with an accessory bag which allows selection of adhesive feet (for standing on a shelf) or mounting plates for wall or panel mount. A DIN Rail Mounting Kit (P/N FS- 8915-28) may be ordered separately.

2.3. Wiring

The 110VAC to 9VDC or 24VDC/ power supply received with the unit needs to be plugged into a power source and then connected to the back of the FieldServer using the SPA59136 connector. This power supply is designed to temporarily provide the 9-24V 100mA required by the FieldServer during testing and start-up. Permanent 9- 30V, 100mA power will need to be provided for continuous operation.

The FS-X20 Series FieldServer is shipped as either a FS-X20XX-01 in which case the RS-232 port is activated, or as a FS-X20XX- 02 in which case the RS-485 port is activated.

If using an RS-232 RJ45 Serial connection then use one of the RJ45 cables to connect from the appropriate port on the FieldServer

to the connection adapter provided with the FieldServer or the Driver Kit. Then plug the connection adapter to the node.

If using RS-485 from the node to the FS- X2010, the + and - wire connections can be used on the RS-485 port on the FieldServer. For the FS-X2011, LonWorks® enabled modules, the orange port is the TP/FT-10 connection, and the RS-485 connection needs to be made via the serial RJ-45 port. To change between RS-232 and RS-485 connection, it is necessary to modify jumpers on the internal board. Refer to eNote00172 for further information.

Ethernet connections simply require connection of a standard Cat5 UTP Ethernet cable with an RJ45 connector between the FieldServer and the network. Note that when connecting the FieldServer directly to another Ethernet enabled device without using a hub, then standard Ethernet principles apply, and a Crossover cable must be used.

Note that the USB port is not activated.
