Chapter One--OverviewIntroductionChapter 1--IntroductionOVERVIEWThe LynTec XRS-20 is a microcontroller based powerdistribution device that can be accessed via Internet orintranet communications using an Ethernet connection.With this remote access, individual AC circuits can be turnedon and off from any LynTec RPC, RPCR, NPAC or XPCcontroller.The XRS-20 has four 20 amp capacity circuits.SAFETY PRECAUTIONSThe XRS-20 is designed to operate at 120 volts, 60 hertz.Operation with any voltage or frequency other than that candamage the equipment and create an unsafe situation.CAUTION #1: This device must be grounded.CAUTION #2: This device should be installed only byqualified electrical technicians using appropriate mountinghardware and correct installation techniques. Beforeinstalling make sure main power is off.CAUTION #3: Do not expose this product to moisture orsalty air. Doing so could cause significant damage andcreate an unsafe condition.DISCLAIMER4LynTec shall under no circumstances be held responsible forany losses, damage, or injury resulting directly or indirectlyfrom the use of the XRS-20 device in a manner contraryto accepted safe operating methods or any instructionscontained in this document. The user should determine priorto use whether this product is adequate, suitable and safe forthe application intended. Since individual applications can besubject to extreme variation LynTec makes no representationor guarantee as to the suitability of the XRS-20 for anygenerally described application.139-0673-00.4

Chapter To--Quick Start GuideChapter Two--Quick Start Guide1. Unbox the unit. The box should contain: XRS-20 deviceand user manual QR. You will need a CAT5 networkcable if attaching to a router, a CAT 5/6 crossover cable ifconnecting directly to a PC.2. With your PC/laptop on and booted up, connect the XRS20 to your router or directly to a PC/laptop using a suitablecable. If the XRS-20 is connected to a network router use astandard CAT 5 cable, if connected directly to a PC/laptopuse a CAT 5/6 crossover cable.3. Plug the XRS-20 power cord into a live AC receptacle,such as a wall outlet, with a twenty amp capacity (i.e.NEMA 5-20R).4. The XRS-20 will take about 30 seconds to boot up andconfigure itself at which point the Network light on thefront of the unit will illuminate, indi-cating networkconnectivity. If the Network light blinks or does not light atall check the cable connections.5. Open up your web browser and type in thefollowing default IP address to access the XRS-20:http://192.168.1.2506. At this point you will be prompted to log into the XRS-20.Initial login:Username: adminPassword: pw7. Use the “Network Setup” page to set a specific static IPaddress for your installation.8. See your system administrator, if you have one, for helpwith configuration.139-0673-00.55

Chapter Three--Detailed Installation & SetupChapter 3--DetailedInstallation and SetupFRONT PANEL FEATURESEmergency Override RockerSwitchThe primary intent is for the XRS-20 to be controlled via aremote Ethernet link. This switch serves as a fail safe controldevice in the event an Ethernet connection is not available orfunctioning. Moving this switch to the UP position will causethe XRS-20 to turn on the three power PODs in a prescribedtimed sequence, two seconds between each POD activation.Moving this switch to the DOWN position will cause the unitto turn off the POD outlets in the reverse order.Recessed Slide SwitchAs a second fail safe control point, this switch can be usedto manually turn on all POD outlets in the unlikely event offailure of the control circuitry contained in the XRS-20. Thisswitch will turn on all POD outlets simultaneously. When theswitch is returned to it’s “off” position the XRS-20 will revertto the prior state the unit was in.Surge Protection/Network LEDThis LED will light up solid Orange when theXRS-20 is connected to an Ethernet networkconnection. It will blink quickly green and redwhen an Ethernet cable is attached but nonetwork can be found. When no network cable isconnected the light will blink slowly green andred indicating the unit is powered up. If Surgeprotection is lost the LED will be solid red orblinking red depending on if the unit is connectedPOD LEDsAs each of the POD duplex receptacles on the back of theXRS-20 turns on a corresponding LED on the6139-0673-006

Chapter Three--Detailed Installation & SetupBACK PANEL FEATURESNetwork PortThis RJ45 connector is for connecting to your PC, router orlocal area network using a TCP/IP link.PODs 1-3There are three duplex receptacles on the back of the XRS20. Each is rated for a maximum twenty amp load and each iscontrollable to turn on or off independently of the others.Unswitched OutletThis single outlet is rated for a maximum load of twentyamps on the XRS-20. It will have power any time the iPdevice is plugged into a live AC receptacle.139-0673-00.77

Chapter Three--Detailed Installation & SetupSETUP DETAILUnbox the unit. The box should contain: XRS-20 deviceand user manual QR. Mount the XRS-20 in a 19” wide rackwith metal mounting rails, designed with 1.75” spacing. Useappropriate rack mounting hardware. Always power theXRS-20 on a grounded outlet. Do not defeat the groundingfeature of the XRS-20 power cord.Connecting to the XRS-20with a Router1. Connect the XRS-20 to your network router using a Cat 5cable plugged into the RJ45 “Network” port on the frontof the unit and the other end to your network router.2. Plug the XRS-20 power cord into a live AC receptacle,such as a wall outlet. Note: The XRS-2020 requires a 20amp, NEMA 5-20R receptacle.3. The XRS-20 will take a few seconds to boot up andconfigure itself at which point the Network light on thefront of the unit should illuminate and remain on withoutblinking, indicating network connectivity. If the Networklight blinks check the cable connections.4. Open a web browser on your PC or Laptop and type inthe following address on the navigation bar to access theXRS-20: http://192.168.1.250 Be sure to type exactly asshown. No domain such as “.com” should be added.5. You will be presented with the login box. Enter thefollowing initial username and password:Initial login:Username: adminPassword: pw8139-0673-008

Chapter Three--Detailed Installation & SetupConnecting to the XRS-20 usinga Crossover CAT5/6 cableTo connect the XRS-20 to a PC or laptop directly you willneed to change the properties of your internet connection/IPaddress.1. Plug the CROSSOVER cable into the PC/laptopnetwork socket and the other end into the XRS-20Network socket .2. Plug the XRS-20 power cord into a live AC receptacle,such as a wall outlet. Note: The XRS-2020 requires a20 amp, NEMA 5-20R receptacle.3. The XRS-20 device will take a few seconds to boot upand configure itself at which point the Network light onthe front of the unit should illuminate and remain onwithout blinking, indicating network connectivity.
