Chapter 1: Installation

Another benefit of using RJ-45 connectors is that you can easily locate sensors at distant locations within your facility by using your existing structured cabling. For example: Suppose you have an RIM-600 installed in room A and you want to install a sensor in room B. If your existing cabling infrastructure has an unused cable path between room A and room B, then you simply use an RJ-45 interconnect cable to connect the RIM-600 to the patch panel in room A, and an RJ-45 interconnect cable from the wall jack in room B to the sensor.

CAUTION: The sensor produces an analog signal which must connect directly to the Host or Node. The path from the sensor to the RIM-600 unit CANNOT pass through a network Hub or Switch.

Network Configuration

The RIM-600 Host has a serial port on the front panel which is used to configure network settings and security options. A dumb terminal or terminal emulation software is required to get online and set up the configuration. The port is male DTE, so you will need to use a null modem cable. Terminal communication settings must be set to:

n 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit

To get online with the RIM-600, connect your terminal to the serial port and press <RETURN>. A menu will appear which will guide you through the setup.
