3.3 Important safety instructions
All safety and operating instructions should be read and understood before using the device, and should be kept for future reference. DANGER! Shock hazard Installations to the house wiring (230V or 400V) (*according to the German Low- Voltage Connection Ordinance— NAV § 13) are only permitted to be carried out by an installation company registered in an installation directory of the network operator. The work must be performed by a suitably qualified electrician (according to DIN VDE 0105-100). The accepted rules of electrical engineering (pursuant to the German Ener- gy Act § 49 and DIN VDE 0100) must be complied with. It is essential that the mains power supply (main switch/circuit breaker/ switch off fuse) is disconnected and se- cured against being switched back on to avoid an electrical shock from the device. Use a suitable measuring instrument to ver- ify safe isolation from the power supply be- fore work is commenced. DANGER! Shock hazard Components powered by the mains supply have to be secured with a circuit breaker. An easily accessible disconnecter (such as a circuit breaker) must be available for each connected external conductor. b The device is intended for installation on the top-hat rail in the installation area of overvol- tage category 3 or lower. b Never open the device. There are no user-servi- ceable parts inside the device. b Use the device in a dry location only. b Do not insert any objects into the openings of the device. b Slots and openings on the case serve as ventila- tion. Never block or cover them. b Do not keep the device in direct sunlight. b Never set up the device near a heater or radia- tor. b The device should be located only where suffi- cient ventilation can be ensured. b Never use the device with a power supply that does not meet the specifications provided on the rating plate. b In the event of damage, contact customer ser- vice.

Compatibility mode Using as VDSL connection may negatively impact the performance of the bandwidth connection by crosstalk of the signal. In order to mitigate any potential negative effects the device provides the following options: Automatic compatibility mode If the option Automatic compatibility mode (re- commended) is enabled, the device can automati- cally adjust the output signal to avoid interference as much as possible. This option is configured by default. Manual compatibility mode If an interference has not been eliminated despite activating the automatic setting, please disable it and set the compatibility mode as well as the signal transmission profile manually:Configuration 34 devolo Magic 2 LANDINrail b MIMO a Full power a VDSL 17a (default) a VDSL 35b b SISO a Full power a VDSL 17a (default) a VDSL 35b Get in touch with your internet provider to find out which signal transmission profile is the best option for your internet connection. The MIMO operating mode and the VDSL 17a si- gnal transmission profile are configured by default.
You make changes to the network settings in the LAN area. You can access the web interface for the devolo Magic 2 LAN DINrail using its current IP ad- dress. This may be an IPv4 and/or IPv6 address, which is either entered manually as a static address or automatically retrieved from a DHCP server. IPv4 Configuration In the factory default settings, only the DHCP enabled option for IPv4 is enabled. This means that the IPv4 address is retrieved axiomatically35 Configuration devolo Magic 2 LAN DINrail from a DHCP server. The currently assigned net- work data is visible (greyed out). If a DHCP server is already present on the network for giving out IP addresses (e.g. your Internet rou- ter), you should enable the DHCP enabled option so that the devolo Magic2LANDINrail automati- cally receives an address from it. If you want to assign a static IP address, make entries accordingly for the Address, Subnetmask, Default gateway and Name server fields. Confirm your settings by clicking the Disk icon. Then, restart the devolo Magic adapter (see Chap- ter Reboot) to ensure that your changes take ef- fect. IPv6 Configuration If you want automatic IP address assignment and there is already a DHCP server present on the net- work for giving out IP addresses (e.g. your Internet router), enable the DHCPv6 enabled option to en- sure that the devolo Magic 2 LAN DINrail automa- tically receives an address from this device. If you want to assign a static IP address, make entries accordingly for the Address, Prefix, De- fault gateway and Name server fields. Confirm your settings by clicking the Disk icon. Then, restart the devolo Magic adapter (see Chap- ter Reboot) to ensure that your changes take ef- fect.

Powersaving If Powersave mode has been enabled, the devolo Magic 2 LAN DINrail switches to Powersave mode automatically whenever reduced data trans- mission over ethernet is detected. The latency (time for transmitting a data packet) may be negatively affected. Powersave mode is disabled in the devolo Magic 2 LAN DINrail factory default settings. Standby If Standby mode is enabled, the devolo Magic 2 LAN DINrail automatically swit- ches to Standby mode if no ethernet connection has been enabled, i.e. if no network device (e.g. computer) is switched on and connected to the network interface and if Wi-Fi is disabled. In this mode, the devolo Magic 2 LAN DINrail is not accessible over the Powerline network. As soon as the network device (e.g. computer) connected to the network interface is switched on again, your adapter can also be accessed over the electrical wiring again.
