4. First Access Via Display
On the first use of the device:
- Create a new 8-digit PIN code.
- Select the desired language using the navigation keys.
- Confirm access.
The display guides the user through the PIN creation and language selection process.
5. First Access to the Webserver
Local Access
- Connect the Ethernet port of the device to your PC or LAN.
- Ensure your PC has an IP address in the same subnet as the device, for example, 192.168.1.xxx (where xxx is a number between 1 and 254, excluding 110).
- Open an internet browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer).
- In the address bar, type the device's default IP address:
192.168.1.110
- When prompted for authentication, click on "First Access" and follow the on-screen instructions.
Remote Access
- Connect the Ethernet port to a modem/router with an internet connection.
- Use the device's local display to set the device to DHCP. Navigate through the menus: System Info -> Wired meters -> Search RF -> Settings -> Sys LAN RF Net -> System -> IP address. Set to DHCP.
- Open an internet browser.
- In the address bar, type the remote access URL provided, which typically follows the format
<serialdevice>.net.sghiot.com
(e.g., EV12345678.net.sghiot.com). - When prompted for authentication, click on "First Access" and follow the provided instructions.
For easier access, the specific remote address may also be printed on a label near the device, often including a QR code.
Local Network IP Example: 192.168.1.1
(Router/Gateway), 192.168.1.110

Device Connections Diagram
The diagram illustrates the connection of the datalogger with Level Converters (SIN.EQLC1/SIN.EQLC250) and M-Bus devices, as well as with a Gateway (SIN.EQRPT868XT) and Wireless M-Bus devices.
General Wiring Instructions:
- Apply a supply voltage of 24Vac/dc +/- 10% to the device.
- Before making any connections, ensure the power is turned off.
- Remove the terminals, complete the wiring, and then re-insert the terminals into their correct positions.
Terminal Block Descriptions:
- FREE VOLTAGE INPUT CONNECTION: Shows terminals B1, B2, C, I1, I2, I3 (labeled 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11) for Digital Inputs. Terminal (8) is the common input.
- RELAY OUTPUT: Shows terminals C, O1, C, O2 (labeled 12, 13, 14, 15) for Digital Outputs (Relay 1 and Relay 2).
- POWER SUPPLY: Shows terminals labeled 24Vac/dc, with Vmax = 24Vac/dc, and terminals (16) and (17) for power supply input.
Network Connection Example
Illustrates a typical LAN connection for the datalogger, showing the device connected to a router or modem with an IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.110) and the router having an IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.1).
Troubleshooting
The datalogger does not turn ON:
Verify the voltage between terminals (16) and (17) using a multimeter. It should be 24Vac/dc +/- 10%.
The display is off:
The display automatically turns off after 10 minutes of inactivity. Press any key to reactivate it.
Not all wired meters are detected:
- Check if the undetected meters support the default communication speed of 2400bps and have correct primary and secondary addressing.
- Verify that the maximum number of allowed wired meters has not been reached or configured incorrectly.
Not all Wireless M-Bus meters are detected:
- Ensure a radio scan for meters has been performed.
- Confirm the gateway is powered, connected, and properly configured.
- Check that the blue LED on the gateway is solid (not blinking), indicating correct ID-Mesh and Mesh channel settings in both the SIN.EQRTUEVO2T and the gateway.
- Ensure there are no other active Mesh networks with the same ID-Mesh that could cause interference. If so, select a different ID-Mesh for all gateways and the SIN.EQRTUEVO2T.
- Verify that the Wireless M-Bus meters are functioning and active.
- Confirm the operating mode (S-Mode, T-Mode, or C-Mode) is correctly set in the SIN.EQRTUEVO2T.
None of the meters is detected:
- Check the M-Bus interface connection to the meter.
- Verify connections (4) - M1 and (5) - M2 to the M-Bus slave interface of the SIN.EQLC1 (if used).
- Check for short circuits on the M-Bus wiring.
Unable to access the webserver:
- Ensure your PC has an IP address within the same network as the datalogger (default IP: 192.168.1.110). Your PC's IP should be 192.168.1.xxx, different from 192.168.1.110.
- Confirm that your PC does not have an active DHCP server that might conflict.
- Verify that no firewall is blocking TCP/IP ports 80 and 443.
Cannot access the webserver remotely:
Check the 'internet_status' item on the local display (via System Info menu) to confirm if the device has a reachable IP address from the internet.
