SYSTEM OVERVIEW
1.1.
Product Description
The F110 Monitoring System is a comprehensive system which provides equipment protection
by monitoring critical operating parameters in enterprises, remote network facilities,
communication rooms, and critical support systems. The F110 is a stand alone system. It
operates via embedded “firmware” that handles all data collection, alarm reporting, and
multiple concurrent communication mediums.
The F110 is designed specifically to monitor any combination of 3 digital temperature/humidity
sensors or 3 digital temperature only sensors and up to 8 dry contact sensors (signal quality
contacts) that can be distributed at locations spanning up to 100 feet (30m).
Additionally, the F110 allows alert notifications to be sent via email to devices like computers,
phones, pagers and PDAs. Users can set up thresholds for temperatures and humidity as well as
configure monitoring of Normally Open (N/O) or Normally Closed (N/C) inputs. Status of
attached sensors for power, smoke/fire, motion, air flow and more is viewed in real-time.
Because each F110 is SNMP enabled, it can easily be monitored by network management
software. The F110 can easily be integrated with Building Management Systems (BMS) via the
Modbus protocol.

Installation
The F110 comes in a 4.5”W x 1.25”H x 2.5”D desktop enclosure. Mount or place the unit in the
desired location. A 19 inch (.48m) rack mount enclosure is available from RLE.
Communication
The F110 default is configured with a DHCP IP Address. The RLE Device Discovery Utility
scans the network and locates all F110 devices connected to the network. This provides an
efficient way to manage large numbers of F110 devices from a single host system.
Note The default DHCP name on the F110 is 'F110 -<5 digit number>'. This 5 digit number will be the
serial number located on the bottom of the F110.
The Device Discovery Utility is available on your RLE Product User Guide CD, included with
your F110. It is also available for download on the Documentation/Files section of the F110

Select the Search button to scan the network for the F110 hardware devices. If an F110 is
physically attached to your network anywhere it will be located in this scan.
Note If the Device Discovery Utility can not find the F110, reset the unit by unplugging the power
adapter and then plugging it back in. Also, make sure that UDP port “30718” is not restricted on
your network by a router, switch, network firewall or software firewall.
2.2.2 Set IP
Select the Set IP button to enter a static IP address, gateway IP address and subnet mask for the
selected F110. To configure a dynamic IP address, set the IP to 0.0.0.0. When configured for a
dynamic IP address, F110 will attempt to obtain an IP address automatically via DHCP.
Figure 2.2 IP Pop-up Box
2.2.3 IP Address Assignment for Static Only Networks
If the network is not configured for DHCP, a static IP address will need to be set before the
F110 can be accessed. After discovering the unit, it will be displayed with an IP address. Click
the Set IP button to assign a static IP address only. After the F110 reboots (i.e,. it takes about 4
seconds) with the new IP address, select the Search button on the Device Discovery Utility.
Next, select the F110 that was just assigned a static IP and then select the Set IP button. Finally,
fill in the gateway IP address and subnet mask for the selected ID Box.

F110 WEB INTERFACE
3.1.
3.2.
F110 Web Interface Overview
The F110’s Web interface provides a convenient way to check the F110’s status and
reconfigure basic settings from any internet enabled computer. Enter the IP address of the F110
into your web browser’s address bar. The F110 Main Page will appear.
Status Screen
Figure 3.1 F110 Status Screen
The Falcon F110 Status Screen is available through the built-in web server and shows the
current status of the attached sensors. If high and low alert thresholds are defined for the
temperature or temperature/humidity sensors, the status icon above the sensor label changes
19
970.484.6510
3 F110 Web Interface
color based upon where the temperature or humidity is in relation to the established high and
low thresholds.
If the temperature or humidity is between the high and low thresholds and more than five (5)
degrees from either threshold, the status icon will be green. If it is within five (5) degrees of the
high threshold, the status icon will be yellow. If it is within five (5) degrees of the low threshold,
the status icon will be blue. If the high or low threshold is exceeded, the status icon will be red.
If no thresholds are currently defined, the status icon will be gray.
The Status screen also displays the current status of any switch sensors connected to the F110.
If the status icon above the switch sensor is red, then that switch sensor is currently in an alarm
state. Below the status icon and switch sensor label, the current switch sensor state will be
displayed. If you are unsure as to which state (i.e. open or closed) to set for the switch sensor
alarm state and the switch sensor is not currently in an alarm state, set the alarm state to be the
opposite of what is displayed here. Refer to the manual of each sensor for information on the
normal state (open or closed) of the switch sensor in use.
Below the DHCP Name and time display are a number of radio buttons and form fields that
allow the display of the F110 web server interface to be modified. Changing the Display radio
buttons will toggle how inactive sensors are displayed, modifying the Update Every form field
will adjust the refresh time of the F110 web server interface and selecting the Celsius radio
button instead of the Fahrenheit radio button will display sensor values in Celsius.
3.3.
Settings Screen
The F110 Settings Screen is used to modify the F110 configuration. Here users can configure
Network, Email, SNMP, Alert Threshold, Security, and Advanced settings. When settings are
modified and saved, the F110 will automatically reset and start with the new configuration.
Note After you make a field change, click on Accept Changes at the bottom of the screen, then click
on Save Settings on the left hand column.
You will see an authentication security prompt appear once accessing the Settings Menu.

Note There is no user name or no password from RLE. Password can be assigned to the unit later in
the configuration menu. There is no user name that can be configured at this time.
3.3.1 Network
The Network tab stores settings to control how the F110 appears on the local network.
Modifying the DHCP name will change how the F110 reports to the DHCP server when
attempting to obtain a dynamic IP address. This label must be unique, so when assigning the
DHCP Name ensure that duplicate labels do not appear on the network.
To set a static IP address, uncheck the Use DHCP checkbox and enter the Static IP, Gateway
IP, and Subnet Mask.
If you wish to use a DNS name instead of an IP address for the Mail Server Address on the
Email tab, enter the IP address of your DNS Server in the DNS Server IP field.
Note In most cases, the DNS Server IP address is the same as the IP address entered into the
“Gateway IP” field. If this does not work, please contact your network administrator for
assistance.
Figure 3.3 Network Settings
Note If using SNMP monitoring software to monitor the F110, it is recommended that a static IP
address be assigned to the device to ensure that the software can find the unit. The IP address
assigned must also be excluded from DHCP assignment to ensure that the IP address of the
F110 is NOT given to another device on your network. Please contact your Network
Administrator for assistance.
21
970.484.6510
3 F110 Web Interface
3.3.2 Email
The Email tab stores settings for the F110 to send Email Alert Notifications when alert
thresholds are exceeded. In order to enable email alerting from the F110's web server interface,
your mail server must have SMTP Relay enabled for either your network or the IP address of
the F110. Contact your Email Administrator if you need assistance.
Enter the mail server address for the mail server you are using in the Mail Server Address
field. The address can be entered as either the IP address or the DNS name of your mail server.
If you wish to use a DNS name for the Mail Server Address field, you must assign a Static IP
address, Gateway IP address, DNS Server IP address, and Subnet Mask on the Network tab.
In the Email Recipients fields, you can enter a single/regular email address, distribution list
email address or mobile phone, pager or PDA email address (using Email-To-SMS) for email
alert when alert thresholds are exceeded. Only one address may be entered.
The Return Address (From) field MUST contain an email address for an active account on the
mail server specified in the Mail Server Address field. For example, if 'mail.rletech.com' is
entered in the Mail Server Address field, the Return Address (From) field must contain an
email address with the 'mail.rletech.com' domain. Contact your email administrator if you
require additional assistance.
The F110 can also do authenticated SMTP (ESMTP). Enter your user name and password in
the fields and select the check box for Enable Authentication. You MUST save your settings
before sending a test email. Refer to xrefpg. X for Trace output, to view mail transfer
information between the F110 and mail server for troubleshooting.
Note You must save your settings before sending a test email.

3.3.4 Channel 2, Channel 3 and Channel 4
The Channel 2, Channel 3 and Channel 4 tabs are used to configure sensor labels and to set
temperature thresholds, temperature/humidity thresholds and/or alarm states for the sensors
connected to sensor channels 2, 3 and 4 on the front of the F110. Sensor labels can be up to 14
characters in length.
Depending on whether an external temperature / humidity sensor, external temperature sensor
or any additional external sensor is plugged into the sensor channel, configuration of each
specific channel may vary.
3.3.4.1 External Temperature/Humidity
High and low thresholds can be defined for each temperature/humidity sensor. If the current
temperature and/or humidity rises above the high threshold or falls below the low threshold, an
alert will be generated. When the temperature and/or humidity returns to a normal state, the alert
will clear and a follow-up notification will be sent.
The temperature/humidity sensors can be calibrated, if necessary, by entering correction values
in the Adjust field for each temperature/humidity sensor. Temperature corrections entered here
can only be entered in degrees Celsius (i.e. °Celsius = [5/9]*[°Fahrenheit-32]). Humidity
corrections are entered in percent (%) Relative Humidity. To adjust the temperature and/or
humidity down, enter a minus (-) sign before the value (i.e. -5). All temperature alert thresholds
must be entered in degrees Fahrenheit and all humidity alert thresholds must be entered in
percent (%) Relative Humidity.

MODBUS CONFIGURATION VIA TELNET
A.1.
A.2.
F110 Modbus Capabilities
By default, the F110 is enabled to listen on TCP port 502 for Modbus requests. The Modbus
module can be enabled or disabled, the TCP port can be changed, and a list of IP addresses can
be specified and used to either allow or deny Modbus requests.
Telnet Configuration
Modbus can be configured through the F110 Telnet interface. To open the Telnet interface, type
the following on the command line being sure to replace <IP Address> with the IP address of
the F110:
telnet <IP Address> 9999
Press Enter when prompted to enter Setup Mode. If Enter is not pressed within three (3)
seconds, the connection will be closed automatically.
Figure A.1 Telnet Connection
Enter 2 and press Enter to select the SNMP/MODBUS Configuration option. At the next
prompt, enter 2 and press Enter to select the MODBUS Configuration option. Follow the
prompts below to configure Modbus on the F110.

A Modbus Configuration Via Telnet
Enable MODBUS? (N)?
Enter Y to enable Modbus and N to disable it. When Modbus is disabled, the F110 will not
actively listen on the Modbus TCP port for Modbus requests.
MODBUS Port: (502)
By default, the F110 listens for Modbus requests on TCP port 502. This port can be changed to
any valid TCP port number although it is recommended to leave it set for port 502 to ensure
compatibility with other Modbus devices on the network.
Should IP List Allow or Deny Connections (0=Allow, 1=Deny):
The F110 is configured by default to deny connections from any IP addresses listed in the
Modbus IP list. When all IP addresses in this list are set to default (0.0.0.0) the F110 will deny
connections from no devices. In other words, by default the F110 allows connections from all IP
addresses. This can be modified if desired so that the F110 will only allow connections from IP
addresses appearing in the IP list. Selecting “0=Allow” will only allow connections from the IP
addresses provided in the list and deny connections from all other addresses. Selecting
“1=Deny” will deny connections from all address in the list but accept from all other addresses.
Enter IP addresses for MODBUS Security:
Up to three (3) IP addresses can be specified and added to the Modbus IP list. This list can be
used to either allow or deny connections if the IP address that the request originated from
matches an IP address in the list. To configure IP addresses, enter each IP address when
prompted or enter 0.0.0.0 to leave blank.
Save Changes And Exit
When configuration changes are complete, press 9 and Enter to save the changes and exit. The
F110 will reboot and apply the new settings.
