- Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the V-/V+ terminals, respectively.
- Tighten the wire-clamp screws using a screwdriver to prevent the wires from pulling loose.
Wiring the Relay Contact
Each switch has one relay output. The relay contact of the 2-pin terminal block connector is used to detect user-configured events. The fault circuit remains closed when no user-configured event occurs. Ensure proper wiring according to the instructions provided.
USB Connection
The switch has two USB ports on the front panel:
- Type B USB-serial console port
- Type A USB host port
To connect the USB-serial console port to your PC’s COM port, use a USB cable (type A male to type B male) and install the USB driver from the software CD on your PC. You can then use a console terminal program, such as Moxa’s PComm Terminal Emulator, to accessthe console configuration utility of the switch.
To connect to the USB host port for various purposes, including backup and restore configuration files, auto-loading configuration files, firmware upgrades, and system log file backups, use Moxa’s USB Automatic Backup Configurator ABC-02-USB.
The Reset Button
Press and hold the Reset button for five continuous seconds to load the factory default settings. Use a pointed object, like a straightened paper clip or toothpick, to depress the Reset button.
The STATE LED will start blinking about once per second. Continue pressing until the STATE LED blinks more rapidly, indicating that the button has been depressed for five seconds. Release the Reset button to load the factory default settings.

Wiring Requirements
WARNING
Do not disconnect modules or wires unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous. The device may only be connected to the supply voltage shown on the type plate. The device is designed for operation with a Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) or an isolated power supply, which means that they may only be connected to the supply voltage connections and to the signal contact with a SELV or an isolated power supply in compliance with IEC 60950-1/EN 60950-1 or UL 508.
AC Power Inlets
The connection for PWR1 (power supply 1) and PWR2 (power supply 2) are located on the rear panel (shown below). Be sure to use a standard power cord with an IEC C13 connector, which is compatible with the AC power inlet.
DC Power Terminal Blocks
The connection for EPS1 (external power supply 1) / PWR1 (power supply 1) and EPS2 (external power supply 2) / PWR2 (power supply 2) are located on the rear panel (shown below).
- STEP 1: Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the V-/V+ terminals, respectively.
- STEP 2: To keep the DC wires from pulling loose, use a screwdriver to tighten the wire-clamp screws.
Wiring the Relay Contact
Each switch has one relay output.
FAULT:
The relay contact of the 2-pin terminal block connector is used to detect user-configured events. The two wires attached to the fault contacts form an open circuit when a user-configured event is triggered. If a user-configured event does not occur, the fault circuit remains closed.
USB Connection
The switch has two USB ports, one type B USB-serial console port and one type A USB host port, located on the front panel. Use a USB cable (type A male to type B male) to connect the USB-serial console port to your PC’s COM port, and install the USB driver (available in the software CD) on the PC. You may then use a console terminal program, such as Moxa’s PComm Terminal Emulator, to access the console configuration utility of the switch.
Use Moxa’s USB Automatic Backup Configurator ABC-02-USB to connect to the USB host port to backup and restore configuration files, auto-load configuration files, upgrade firmware, and backup system log files.
The Reset Button
Depress the Reset button for five continuous seconds to load the factory default settings. Use a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip or toothpick, to depress the Reset button. When you do so, the STATE LED will start to blink about once per second. Continue to depress the STATE LED until it begins blinking more rapidly; this indicates that the button has been depressed for five seconds and you can release the Reset button to load factory default settings.
NOTE DO NOT power off the switch when loading default settings
