Watchdog greift

The watchdog monitors the router for internet connection. The router itself checks whether an internet connection is available as desired. For
this, it sends ICMP packets to an individually defined server (ICMP detection server). If this query fails, the router will automatically restart the
dial-up, then the modem, and if necessary the entire system. The watchdog provides a reliable internet connection in the mobile network. This
ensures that the router is almost always reachable.

2.6. Installation of the power supply 2.9. setting up the router


Remove the terminal block from the top of the router. Loosen the relevant screws on the terminal block and lead the cores to the correspon-
ding terminals. The terminals are marked accordingly on the top of the router. Tighten the screws again and then reinsert the connector block 2.9.1. Automatic Configuration (DHCP)
into the router.
Configure the PC so that it works as a DHCP client (obtain IP address automatically). Connect the PC to the FE0/2 or FE1/1 - FE1/4 interface
use the grounding screw on the unit to ground the unit. (only TK8X5 variants) using a network cable. The router assigns IP address, default gateway and DNS server to the PC. The following figure
shows the configuration process via DHCP on a PC with the Windows 10 operating system, which can be accessed via the Network and Sha-
ring Center in Windows 10.

To eliminate electromagnetic interference, the housing of the router must be earthed via the grounding screw.

2.7. cable connections


Connect the router to your PC via a network cable (RJ45). We recommend the Fe 0/2 port for all TK8x2 models and the Fe 1/4 port for all
TK8x5 models.

2.8. connection of serial interfaces and I/os


To connect the serial interfaces and the I/Os, you will find a connection block on the front panel of the device. The individual contacts for this
are marked on the front of the device. Connect the cables according to these labels. The contact „iN“ represents the digital input here, while
the output is labeled „Relay“. „CoM“ represents the ground. During installation, remove the connection block from the device and connect the
individual cores to the corresponding terminals. Then plug the terminal block back into the device.

2.3. Installation guide 2.4. Installing the sIM card


The TK800 supports dual SiM. To insert the cards, press the yellow „eject“ button e. g. with a small screwdriver on top of the device. The respec-
2.3.1. Preparations tive SiM card slot is pressed out. if the TK800 is not operated in dual SiM mode, use the SiM card slot „SiM1“.
Then insert the SiM card. The SiM card slot is not hot-plug capable. The router must be restarted after inserting the SiM card.
Prepare the power supply (12 - 48 V DC). Ensure that the device can operate under the specified ambient conditions (operating temperature
range -25 - +70 °C, humidity: 5 - 95 % relative humidity). The device should not be exposed to direct sunlight and should be installed separa-
tely from heat sources and environments with strong electromagnetic interference. The router can be mounted on a DiN rail (mounting rail) or
used at the workplace.

2.3.2. Mounting the device


Mounting rail:
Select a location with enough space on the mounting rail. Then place the upper part of the mounting on the mounting rail. Afterwards, press
the lower side of the mounting rail receptacle downward until the device is locked. This is illustrated in this image:

2.5. Installation of the antennas


Plug the antennas into the SMA connectors and turn the outer mounting on the antenna cable until the connection is secure.

For optimal performance, the antennas should be placed at least 20 cm apart from each other.
2
To disassemble press the device from the top toward the bottom, and then pull the bottom side of the device from the mounting rail (see
Figure).
