Mounting

The IFE interface mounts on a DIN rail. The stacking accessory enables the connection of several IFM interfaces to an IFE server without additional wiring.

NOTE: The stacking feature is available only for the IFE server with the part number LV434002.

24 Vdc Power Supply

The IFE interface must always be supplied with 24 Vdc. The power to the IFM interfaces stacked to an IFE server are supplied by the IFE server and it is not necessary to supply power to them separately.

It is recommended to use an UL listed and recognized limited voltage/limited current or a class 2 power supply with a 24 Vdc, 3 A maximum.

NOTE: For 24 Vdc power supply connection, use copper conductors only.

Modbus Serial Line Traffic LED

The Modbus serial line traffic yellow LED, indicates that the traffic is being transmitted or received over the Modbus serial line network through the IFE server.

The LED is ON during the transmission and reception of the messages. The LED is OFF otherwise.

NOTE: The LED is OFF on the IFE interface (part number LV434001).

Modbus Address

The IFE interface accepts the Modbus address of the IMU to which it is connected.

The Modbus address is 255 and cannot be changed.

Locking Pad

The locking pad on the front panel of the IFE interface enables or disables the ability to send the remote control commands over the Ethernet network to the IFE interface, and to the other modules of the IMU.

  • If the arrow points to the open padlock (factory setting), remote control commands are enabled.

  • If the arrow points to the closed padlock, remote control commands are disabled.

    The only remote control command that is enabled even if the arrow points to the closed padlock, is the set absolute time command.

Test Button

The test button has two functions, according to the duration of the button pressed.

Time Range

Function

1–5 s

Tests the connection between all the ULP modules for 15 s.

10–15 s

Activates the hidden configuration mode.

NOTE: The hidden configuration is not activated if the button is pressed for more than 15 s.

Reset Button

When the reset button is pressed for 1–5 s, it forces the IP acquisition mode to the factory default setting (DHCP).

ULP Status LED

The yellow ULP status LED describes the mode of the ULP module.
