Xanbus Automatic Generator Start Installation
Connecting the AGS to the Xanbus Network
To connect the AGS to the Xanbus network, plug a Xanbus network cable
(standard straight-through Ethernet cable—CAT 5e) into one of the network
ports on the bottom panel of the AGS. Connect the other end of that same
cable to the next Xanbus-enabled component in the chain. See Figure 25. For
the location of the ports on the AGS, see Figure 5 on page 9
.
If the AGS is being installed on an existing Xanbus system, the system must
first be put into Standby. See “Putting the AGS in Standby Mode” on page
67.
Depending on the layout of the Xanbus system, the following options are
available for the other network connector on the AGS:
• A second network cable
• A network terminator (when the AGS is the last device at one end of
the network)
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Connect only to other Xanbus-enabled devices.
Although the cabling and connectors used in this network system are the
same as those used for Ethernet, this network is not an Ethernet system.
Equipment damage may result from attempting to connect a Xanbus-
Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or
