1. Product Introduction
1.1. Overview
DG-A6 series serial port server is an industrial designed 1U 19”rack-mount device. It supports 8
RS-232/RS485/RS422 serial ports and optional additional 8 RS-485 serial ports. It provides full
network access ability with independent 6 10/100M Ethernet ports. Each Ethernet port can be
mapped freely to access indicated RS232/RS485/RS422 serial port of the device. Furthermore,
multiple network clients can transparently and concurrently access to specified serial port for
redundancy. It is important to support back-up power supply in industrial environment, and
hence DG-A6 series serial port server supports dual AC/DC power inputs by internally using
independent power modules for extra reliability. DG-A6 series serial port sever is also a
value-added intelligent device to run 3rd part software based on Linux. The built-in hardware
encryption chips will help 3rd part developing group to protect their custom software binding to
the device.

1.2. Packing information and open-box inspection
Packing information
Check the packing list for details.
Open-box inspection
Before unpacking, place the box on a stable surface and pay attention to the orientation of
packing box with right side up, so as to prevent DG-A series gateway products from droping out
when the box is opened.
After unpacking, count the quantity of items (including main device, device accessories, user
manual, and optical disk, etc.) according to the packing list, and inspect the appearance of
device.

2. Installation and wiring
2.1. Overview
This chapter mainly describes how to install and connect the product effectively.DG-A6 uses
rackmount installation.
2.2. Installation of DG-A6
DG-A6 can be directly mounted on a standard 19-inch rack. Use 4 screws and a pair of L-shaped
metal brackets to fix the device on the rackmount rail and make sure device shellground is well
earthed. See figure below:
Figure 2.2 Schematic diagram of rack mounting of DG-A6
2.3. Wiring of DG-A6
2.3.1. Power connection
The standard power input voltage of DG-A6 is 9~36VDC or 85~264VAC/77~300VDC, and
please connect the power source of the device in strict accordance with the following steps:
Connect the power line and earth wire to the power socket of the device;
Check status of PSW indicator lamp for DG-A6 working power supply;
In case of any abnormality, please turn off the power or directly unplug the power cord as
soon as possible, and then seek for technical support from our company.
☆
Note: It’s recommended to complete the power connection and debugging of DG-A6
device before connection with network and serial devices.
