Status Sentinel Installation and Operation Manual
OVERVIEW
Product Overview
The Status Sentinel™ is a robust, full-featured; Ethernet based data acquisition
device with three optically isolated status (digital) inputs. The Status Sentinel™ can
be controlled and/or monitored over any IP network including private networks, IP-
based industrial control networks, and the Internet. Users can operate the product
using a web browser or web-enabled mobile device, while email notification may be
configured to alert up to four recipients when alarms are detected. The user may
also enable a sound effect to play when an alarm is generated. Logging of input sta-
tus, along with the site ID text may be emailed from once an hour to once a day.
The Status Sentinel™ may be paired with the Relay Sentinel™ to form a “Relay
Extension Cord”.
Inspection
Please examine your Status Sentinel™ carefully for any damage that may have been
sustained during shipping. If any damage is noted, please notify the shipper imme-
diately and retain the packaging for inspection by the shipper. The package should
contain the Status Sentinel™, this manual and/or CD, 7 foot BLUE straight-through
CAT 5 cable, 7 foot GRAY crossover CAT 5 cable, and the 7.5 VDC @ 500ma wall
transformer.
Installation
Surge Protection
The Status Sentinel™ has built-in resistance to voltage changes; we recommend that
you use a power surge protector or line conditioner on the incoming AC line.
Lightning strikes and/or other high voltage surges may damage your Status
Sentinel™ and connected equipment if it is not properly protected. For lightning
protection devices, check out www.polyphaser.com and www.itwlinx.com.
UPS Standby Power System
We recommend that you connect your Status Sentinel™ to a UPS system. A UPS
helps minimize the risk to the Status Sentinel™ and provides power during a power
outage.
“NET” network RJ45 connector
Connect one end of the supplied CAT5 (straight or crossover) cable to the desired
ETHERNET (WAN/LAN) or PC port.
POWER 7.5 VDC connector
This is the connector used to power the unit. Never use any type of power supply
other than the specified power supply.
CAUTION!
Installation of the Relay
Sentinel™ in high RF
environments should be
performed with care.
The station ground
should be connected to
the designated chassis
ground terminal or
chassis ground screw
using a 20 to 24-gauge
wire.

INSTALLATION
Installation
Status/Digital (OPTO +/-) 1,2,3 input connections
The optically isolated status/digital inputs accept (WET) voltages from 5 to 24 volts
DC. Higher voltages may be applied if an appropriate value external current limit-
ing resistor is used. Connect the positive voltage to the desired “OPTO +” terminal
(anode) and ground or minus voltage to the desired “OPTO –“ terminal (cathode).
NOTE: Please observe proper polarity.
Connecting (DRY) contact closures to the status/digital input requires the user to
connect the 5VDC terminal to the desired OPTO + terminal. Connect one side of
the external contact closure to the GND terminal and the other side of the external
contact closure to the desired OPTO – terminal.
NOTE: Please observe proper polarity. The on-board 5VDC power source may be
used to power the (DRY) inputs.
Power LED
Indicates power is applied.
OPTO-Input 1,2,3 LED’s
Illuminates when the appropriate status/digital input is activated.
On-board 5VDC power source
The on-board five-volt DC power source may be used to power the status/digital
input and/or external equipment. The supply is current limited to 100ma.
Connections should be made to the “5VDC” and “GND” terminals.
CHS GND connector
Connect the station ground to this terminal.

Ethernet “Quick Start” guide
M CAUTION! If you are not familiar with Ethernet enabled equipment, it may be
useful to contact your IT department, network administrator or network consultant
for help. Assigning an IP address already in use by another device may cause prob-
lems with your network! Instructions for changing the IP address of the computer
that will be used for the configuration of this product are given here. Note that these
instructions are specifically for computers with the Windows XP operating system.
For setup using other operating systems, refer to the appropriate OS users manual.
