• Input ta' Enerġija DC: Terminal block for connecting 48-54V DC power supply.
• Fault Alarm Loading: Terminal block for connecting external alarm systems.

3. Setup

3.1 Disimballaġġ

Carefully unpack the switch and verify that all components are present and undamaged. Retain the packaging materials for future transport or storage.

3.2 Immuntar

The IGS-4215-8P2T2S is designed for industrial environments and typically supports DIN-rail or wall mounting. Refer to the specific mounting kit instructions for secure installation in your desired location. Ensure adequate ventilation around the device.

3.3 Konnessjoni tal-Enerġija

1. Ensure the power source is off before connecting.
2. Connect a 48-54V DC power supply to the terminal block on the rear panel (refer to Figure 2.3). Observe correct polarity (V1+, V1-, V2+, V2-).
3. Secure the wires firmly within the terminal block.
4. Once all network connections are made, apply power to the switch.

3.4 Konnessjonijiet tan-Netwerk
