Commissioning
The adapter is connected directly to the Kentix system socket (1) and offers the option of supplying power to a MultiSensor via a plug-in power supply (2).
This may be necessary, for example, if no PoE switch is available for operating a MultiSensor-LAN/-LAN-RF, or if a MultiSensor-RF is to be connected separately to monitor the external power supply. The cable length between MultiSensor and KIO2 adapter should not exceed 50 meters.
This adapter is only used to supply power to a MultiSensor.
The alarm inputs and outputs on the MultiSensor are no longer available when using this adapter.
Configuration with KentixONE
The device is configured via the web browser in KentixONE. The device must be accessible to the central KentixONE instance on the network side. Depending on the device type, a communication key and the IP address or DHCP name of the central KentixONE instance must also be set on the device (MultiSensors, AccessManager, SmartPDU). IP cameras or IO modules, on the other hand, can be integrated directly into KentixONE.
All information about the software is available in the KentixONE section and the related documentation.
Before starting the configuration, make sure that the software on all network-compatible Kentix devices is up-to-date. The version status must match on all devices.
You can perform a software update for your KentixONE main instance and all connected satellites at any time via “System – Update”.
