Installing the Ethernet interface
The IQ S
ENSOR
N
ET
system can be linked to a LAN through the
MIQ/MC2 controller.
Basic knowledge of network engineering is helpful when establishing a
local network.
Depending on the network configuration, several settings have to be
made on the individual network components.
Settings that concern network components from third-party manufac-
turers (such as the router) are only referred to in general here. Detailed
information on in which menus the settings should be done are given in
the respective operating manual of your instrument.
If you have no network knowledge, please contact your network admin-
istrator.
2.2.1 Communication via Ethernet
The IQ S
ENSOR
N
ET
provides an interface for Fast Ethernet
(100 MBit/s).
If configured as a DHCP client, the IQ S
ENSOR
N
ET
can automatically
get its IP settings from a DHCP server in the network.
2.2.2 Ethernet connection in case of indoor installation
The Ethernet cable is connected to the IQ S
ENSOR
N
ET
with the RJ45
connector on the underside of the enclosure of the MIQ/MC2 controller.
2.2.3 Ethernet connection in case of outdoor installation
When plugged in, the RJ45 socket is not sufficiently protected against
moisture. With outdoor installation, the Ethernet cable must therefore
be clamped directly on the PCB of the MIQ/MC2 controller to ensure a
safe Ethernet communication. For this purpose there is a 4-pole termi-
nal strip and a shielding terminal on the main PCB. An LSA punch down
tool is required for the assembly.
Profinet, Modbus TCP and Ethernet IP use the same inter-
face (Ethernet) and the same cable type (Ethernet) for data
exchange.
