AD v2 is the successor to AD v1, and offers several improvements such as higher display resolution, enhanced processor performance, and increased memory size. Like AD v1, AD v2 provides a Human Machine Interface (HMI) for local access to the EcoStruxure BMS servers.

AD v2 is based on an Android platform with a high-resolution touchscreen display. The display size is 10.1 inches.

AD v2

AD v2 is intended to be used as a stationary HMI terminal. For example, AD v2 can be installed on a control cabinet in a plant room.

Kiosk Mode

AD v2 is preinstalled with SmartXKiosk, which allows you to lock AD v2 into Kiosk mode to prevent users from accessing other apps than the one you have selected. For more information, see SmartXKiosk Overview .

AD v2 Bundle

AD v2 is delivered in a bundle, which contains a protective frame. When assembled, the frame protects against dust, moisture, and mechanical damage. The USB cable is ordered separately from Schneider Electric.

Note:

The frame and its base do not provide protection against theft.

Installation Options

The protective frame has a base, which is equipped with hole mount patterns to support a variety of installation options. For example, AD v2 can be installed on a control cabinet, on a wall, or on a VESA stand that fits devices with a 100 x 100 mm (3.94 x 3.94 in.) hole pattern.

AD v2 Communication and Power

AD v2 uses a wired (USB) connection to communicate with EcoStruxure BMS servers. During installation and commissioning, you can use a wireless access point to establish communication between AD v2 and EcoStruxure BMS servers. AD v2 can be powered either by a AS-P server, AS-B server, or USB power adapter.

For more information, see AD v2 Communication and Power .

  1. Hold the base in place against the cabinet.

  2. Mark the place where the center hole (cable insertion hole) should be on the cabinet.

  3. Remove the base.

  4. Create a 22 mm (0.87 in.) diameter hole in the cabinet.

    Tip:

    Use a metal hole punch to create the hole in the cabinet.

  5. Fit the cable grommet into the center hole in the base.

  6. Turn the cable grommet counterclockwise until it snaps into place in the base.

  7. Put the base on the cabinet with the cable grommet inserted through the center hole in the cabinet.

  8. Thread the nut onto the cable grommet.

  9. Level the base.

  10. Mark the place where the four drill holes (for attachment of the base) should be on the cabinet.

    Note:

    Use the holes in the corners of the base to mark the place where the drill holes should be.

  11. Remove the nut.

  12. Remove the base.

  13. Drill four holes in the cabinet.
