PoE After boot up, solid green indicates PoE is available.
Off indicates power supply voltage is not sufcient to
supply PoE capability. Flashing green indicates PoE
External Supply value set to 0
STATUS Flashing blue (heartbeat) indicates power and
processor OK; off indicates no power.

For detailed instructions on operation of the PWVIA DIN P8, please
see the PWVIA DIN manual available on the Pathway website.
All eld conguration of VIA switches is recommended to be done with
Pathscape software.
Download the software from www.pathwayconnect.com and install.
Before conguring and using the switch, you must add it to a Security
Domain using Pathscape.
Set computer’s IP to a static address in the 10.x.x.x range, with a subnet
mask of 255.0.0.0 and default gateway of 10.0.0.1. No conguration
of the computer’s DNS settings should be required. Plug into the VIA8
and launch the software. Discovery will be automatic.
Refer to additional VIA and Pathscape documentation for
description of conguration options.
The PWVIA DIN P8 is a DIN-mountable, managed gigabit
Ethernet switch with eight copper ports and two mini-GBIC
ports for SFP/SFP+ ber modules.
This compact switch is designed speccally for sACN
data distribution and is ideal for networks usings Pathport
Gateways, Choreo controllers, Cognito consoles and NSB
or Vignette architectural wall stations, with Power-over-
Ethernet support for up to 8 devices.
POWER
The PWVIA DIN P8 is designed to run Class 3 PoE on ports 1-8.
Typically most Pathport and Vignette devices are Class 2 or lower and
a 100W 48VDC power supply (PWPWR DIN TERM 100W 48VDC) will
supply enough power for the switch and 8 connected PoE devices.
Observe correct polarity when wiring DC IN plug.
The earth ground terminal must be connected to the enclosure’s chassis
or electrical ground terminal to improve EMC compliance.
ETHERNET
All network wiring should follow standard Ethernet rules and be installed
by a qualied person. As part of the installation, all wiring should be
certied under the TIA/EIA-568 standard.
Pathway recommends the use of manufactured rather than hand-
terminated cables. We also recommend PWACC RJPATCH RJ45 patch
accessories which come in lots of 4 and use 3.5” of rail space. These
use standard punch-down female connectors and essentially build a
patch bay in the DIN enclosure.
Disconnect all power before proceeding with installation.
Securely mount DIN rail (if not already installed in the enclosure). Hook
the upper slots on the back of the plastic extrusion to the DIN rail and
then gently but rmly press on the bottom front corners of the extrusion
to snap the module onto the rail.
Connect the DC IN terminal, after checking that polarity is correct. The
switch will boot up, which may take 15-20 seconds.
Attach required network cables to RJ45 ports. Connect the ber
module(s), if used.
The system is now ready for conguration and testing.
