Install, Configure, and Monitor a Gateway

Install, configure, and monitor the Gateway to enable proper operation and communication.
ATTENTION:
Prevent Electrostatic Discharge
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle this equipment:
  • Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
  • Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
  • Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
  • Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
  • Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
  • Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not in use.
ATTENTION:
Environment and Enclosure
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in EN/IEC 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 m (6562 ft) without derating. This equipment is not intended for use in residential environments and may not provide adequate protection to radio communication services in such environments. This equipment is supplied as open-type equipment for indoor use. It must be mounted within an enclosure that is suitably designed for those specific environmental conditions that are present and appropriately designed to help prevent personal injury resulting from accessibility to live parts. The enclosure must have suitable flame-retardant properties to prevent or minimize the spread of flame, complying with a flame spread rating of 5VA or be approved for the application if nonmetallic. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of this publication may contain more information regarding specific enclosure type ratings that are required to comply with certain product safety certifications. In addition to this publication, see the following:
  • Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication 1770-4.1, for more installation requirements.
  • NEMA Standard 250 and EN/IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection provided by enclosures.
WARNING:
Installation Precautions
These products must only be:
  • Used as a component in an
    EtherNet/IP™
     In-cabinet system. System components include: supplemental PowerTap™ (Cat. No. 1834-SUP-PWR), gateway (Cat. No. 1834-AENTR), flat media cable (Cat. No. 1486-CBL-x), and flat media connectors (Cat. No 1486-CON-x).
  • Used within its specified ratings defined by Rockwell Automation.
  • Installed in compliance with the enclosure, mounting, spacing, and segregation requirements of the ultimate application.
  • Installed according to the instructions provided within this chapter. When this product is used in an
    EtherNet/IP™
     In-cabinet system application, all system certifications apply.
  • Powered from a source compliant with Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) or Protected Extra Low Voltage (PELV) to comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive (LVD). Transient protection shall be provided that is set at a level not exceeding 140% of the peak-rated voltage value at the supply terminals to the equipment.
  • Disconnected from power before removal or replacement. Do not remove or replace a module while power is applied. Interruption of the flat cable media can result in unintentional operation or machine motion.
  • Route and secure the flat media cable to avoid damage. Install 0.6 mm (0.02 in.) minimum thickness insulation surrounding the flat media cable nearest the enclosure/cabinet hinge, for added protection during door closure. For example, 3M® Rubber Insulating Tape #23 or #130C, which conforms and self-fuses, serving as a jacket to envelop the flat media cable.
