Installing the Device This section describes how to install and connect to the RUGGEDCOM RS400. WARNING Radiation hazard – risk of serious personal injury This product contains a laser system and is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those speci- fied herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
If any item is missing or damaged, contact Siemens for assistance. Mounting the Device The RUGGEDCOM RS400 is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility. It can be equipped with connectors that allow it to be installed in a rack, on a DIN rail, or directly on a panel.
2.3.1 Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail The RUGGEDCOM RS400 can be ordered with panel/DIN rail adapters preinstalled on each side of the chassis. Use the adapters to mount the device to a standard 35 mm (1.4 in) IEC/EN 60715 or TS35 DIN rail.
2.3.2 Mounting the Device to a Rack For rack mount installations, the RUGGEDCOM RS400 can be equipped with rack mount adapters pre-installed at the front or rear of the chassis. Additional adapters are provided to further secure the device in high-vibration or seismically active loca- tions.
2.3.3 Mounting the Device to a Panel For panel installations, the RUGGEDCOM RS400 can be equipped with panel/DIN rail adapters pre-installed on each side of the chassis. The adapters allow the device to be attached to a panel using screws.
NO contact and closes the NC (Normally Closed) contact. Note Control of the failsafe relay output is configurable through RUGGEDCOM RS400 . One common application for this relay is to signal an alarm if a power failure occurs.
Figure 2.5 Failsafe Alarm Relay Wiring Grounding the Device The RUGGEDCOM RS400 chassis ground terminal uses a #6-32 screw. It is recom- mended to terminate the ground connection with a #6 ring lug and torque it to 1.7 N·m (15 lbf·in).
This cable connects transient suppression circuitry to chassis ground and must be removed in order to avoid damage to transient suppression circuitry during testing. RUGGEDCOM RS400 Installation Manual, 02/2020, C79000-G8976-1016-10...

Connect the ground terminal on the power source to the chassis ground termi- nal on the device. For more information, refer to "Grounding the Device (Page 13)". RUGGEDCOM RS400 Installation Manual, 02/2020, C79000-G8976-1016-10...
Communication Ports Connect any of the available Ethernet ports on the device to a management switch and access the RUGGEDCOM RS400 console and Web interfaces via the device's IP address. For more information about available ports, refer to "Communication Ports (Page 19)".
Once the device is installed and connected to the network, it must be configured. All configuration management is done via the RUGGEDCOM ROS interface. For more in- formation about configuring the device, refer to the RUGGEDCOM ROS Configura- tion Manual associated with the installed software release.

To determine which ports are equipped on the device, refer to the factory data file available through RUGGEDCOM RS400 . For more information on how to access the factory data file, refer to the RUGGEDCOM ROS Configuration Manual for the RUGGEDCOM RS400.
"Copper Ethernet Port Specifications (Page 27)". Fiber Optic Ethernet Ports Fiber optic Ethernet ports are available with either MTRJ (Mechanical Transfer Reg- istered Jack), LC (Lucent Connector), SC (Standard or Subscriber Connector) or ST RUGGEDCOM RS400 Installation Manual, 02/2020, C79000-G8976-1016-10...
Port Specifications (Page 28)". Modem Port The RUGGEDCOM RS400 can optionally be equipped with a V.90 Modem connection for PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) connections. For information about how to config- ure and operate the modem, refer to the RUGGEDCOM ROS Configuration Manual for the RUGGEDCOM RS400.
RENs of all the devices does not exceed five. Serial Ports The RUGGEDCOM RS400 supports RJ45 or DB9 serial ports, which can be run in RS232, RS485 or RS422 mode. Note On power-up, all serial ports default to RS485 mode.
Communication Ports 4.4.2 Serial RS232/RS485/RS422 DB9 Ports ing with an another DCE device, such as another RUGGEDCOM RS400, the RX and TX pins must be crossed-over using, for example, a NULL modem cable. The following is the pin-out description for the RS232 DB9 ports: ...
Serial RS232/RS485/RS422 RJ45 Ports The RUGGEDCOM RS400 can be equipped with serial RS232/RS485/RS422 RJ45 ports. Each port can be set individually through the RUGGEDCOM RS400 operating sys- tem to operate in RS232, RS485 or RS422 mode. For more information, refer to the RUGGEDCOM ROS Configuration Manual for the RUGGEDCOM RS400.
The shield should be connected to earth ground at a single point to avoid loop currents. • The twisted pair should be terminated at each end of the chain. The following shows the recommended RS485 wiring. RUGGEDCOM RS400 Installation Manual, 02/2020, C79000-G8976-1016-10...
