Installation and Configuration

Before installing the AWK-3121-M12, make sure that all items in the

Package Checklist are in the box. In addition, you will need access to a

notebook computer or PC equipped with an Ethernet port. The

AWK-3121-M12 has a default IP address that you must use when

connecting to the device for the first time.

Step 1: Select the power source

The AWK-3121-M12 can be powered by a DC power input or PoE (Power

over Ethernet). The AWK-3121-M12 will use whichever power source you

choose.

Step 2: Connect the AWK-3121-M12 to a notebook or PC

Since the AWK-3121-M12 supports MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing, you can

use either a straight-through cable or crossover cable to connect the

AWK-3121-M12 to a computer. If the LED indicator on the

AWK-3121-M12’s LAN port lights up, it means the connection is

established.

Step 3: Set up the computer’s IP address

Set an IP address on the same subnet as the AWK-3121-M12. Since the

AWK-3121-M12’s default IP address is 192.168.127.253, and the subnet

mask is 255.255.255.0, you should set the IP address of the computer to

192.168.127.xxx and subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.

Step 6: Test communications

We will describe two test methods. Use the first method if you are using

only one AWK-3121-M12, and use the second method if you are using two

or more AWK-3121-M12s.

Testing method for one AWK-3121-M12

If you are only using one AWK-3121-M12, you will need a second

notebook computer (B) equipped with a WLAN card. Configure the WLAN

card to connect to the AWK-3121-M12 (the default SSID is MOXA) and

change the IP address of notebook B so that it is on the same subnet as

the first notebook (A), which is connected to the AWK-3121-M12.

After configuring the WLAN card, establish a wireless connection with the

AWK-3121-M12 and open a DOS window on notebook B. At the prompt,

type

ping IP address of notebook A

and then press the Enter key. A “Reply from IP address …” response

means the communication was successful. A “Request timed out.”

response means the communication failed. In this case, recheck the

configuration to make sure the connections are correct.

Testing method for two or more AWK-3121-M12s

If you have two or more AWK-3121-M12s, you will need a second

notebook computer (B) equipped with an Ethernet port. Use the default

settings for the first AWK-3121-M12 connected to notebook A, and

change the second or third AWK-3121-M12 connected to notebook B to

Client mode and then configure the notebooks and AWK-3121-M12s

properly.

After setting up the testing environment, open a DOS window on

notebook B. At the prompt, type

ping IP address of notebook A

and then press Enter key. A “Reply from IP address …” response means

the communication was successful. A “Request timed out.” response

means the communication failed. In this case, recheck the configuration

to make sure the connections are correct.

mount plates with M3

screws, as shown in the

adjacent diagrams.

STEP 2:

Mounting the

AWK-3121-M12 to a wall requires 4

screws. Use the

AWK-3121-M12 device, with wall

mount plates attached, as a guide to mark the correct

locations of the 4 screws. The heads of the screws

should be less than 6.0 mm in diameter, and the

shafts

ould be less than 3.5 mm in diameter, as shown in

the figure at the right.

Do not screw the screws in all the way

—

leave a space

of about 2 mm to allow room for sliding the wall mount

panel between the wall and the screws.

NOTE

Test the screw head and

shank size by inserting the screw into

one of the keyhole shaped apertures of the Wall Mounting Plates

before it is screwed into the wall.

STEP 3:

Once the screws are fixed

into the wall, insert the four

screw heads through the

large opening of the

Wiring Requirements

WARNING

Safety First!

Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or

wiring your M

oxa AWK-3121-M12.

WARNING

Safety First!

Calculate the maximum possible current in each power

wire and

common wire. Observe all electrical codes dictating the

maximum current allowed for each wire size.

If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could

overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.

You should also pay attention to the following items:

•Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power

wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are

perpendicular at the intersection point.

NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring

in the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with different

signal characteristics should be routed separately.

•You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to

determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb is

that wiring with similar electrical characteristics can be bundled

together.

•Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.

•It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system

when necessary.
