Mounting

Note that figures are for illustrative purposes only.

Dimensions

Panel Mounting

Before you begin, note that the mounting panel cannot be more than 5 mm thick.

1. Make a panel cut-out of the appropriate size:
2. Slide the controller into the cut-out, ensuring that the rubber seal is in place.
3. Push the mounting brackets into their slots on the sides of the panel as shown in the figure below.
4. Tighten the bracket’s screws against the panel. Hold the bracket securely against the unit while tightening the screw.
5. When properly mounted, the controller is squarely situated in the panel cut-out as shown in the accompanying figures.
   

DIN-rail Mounting

1. Snap the controller onto the DIN rail as shown in the figure to the right.
   
2. When properly mounted, the controller is squarely situated on the DIN-rail as shown in the figure to the right.
   

Wiring

• Do not touch live wires.
• This equipment is designed to operate only in SELV/PELV/Class 2/Limited Power environments.
• All power supplies in the system must include double insulation. Power supply outputs must be rated as SELV/PELV/Class 2/Limited Power.
• Do not connect either the ‘Neutral or ‘Line’ signal of the 110/220VAC to device’s 0V pin.
• All wiring activities should be performed while power is OFF.
• Use over-current protection, such as a fuse or circuit breaker, to avoid excessive currents into the power supply connection point.
• Unused points should not be connected (unless otherwise specified). Ignoring this directive may damage the device.
• Double-check all wiring before turning on the power supply.

Caution

• To avoid damaging the wire, do not exceed a maximum torque of:
  • Controllers offering a terminal block with pitch of 5mm: 0.5 N·m (5 kgf·cm).
  • Controllers offering a terminal block with pitch of 3.81mm f 0.2 N·m (2 kgf·cm).
• Do not use tin, solder, or any substance on stripped wire that might cause the wire strand to break.
• Install at maximum distance from high-voltage cables and power equipment

Wiring Procedure

Use crimp terminals for wiring;

• Controllers offering a terminal block with pitch of 5mm: 26-12 AWG wire (0.13 mm2 –3.31 mm2).
• Controllers offering a terminal block with pitch of 3.81mm: 26-16 AWG wire (0.13 mm2 – 1.31 mm2).

1. Strip the wire to a length of 7±0.5mm (0.270–0.300“).
2. Unscrew the terminal to its widest position before inserting a wire.
3. Insert the wire completely into the terminal to ensure a proper connection.
4. Tighten enough to keep the wire from pulling free.

Wiring Guidelines

• Use separate wiring ducts for each of the following groups:
  • Group 1: Low voltage I/O and supply lines, communication lines.
  • Group 2: High voltage Lines, Low voltage noisy lines like motor driver outputs.
    Separate these groups by at least 10cm (4″). If this is not possible, cross the ducts at a 90˚angle.
• For proper system operation, all 0V points in the system should be connected to the system 0V supply rail.
• Product-specific documentation must be fully read and understood before performing any wiring.
  Allow for voltage drop and noise interference with input lines used over an extended distance.
  Use wire that is properly sized for the load.

Earthing the product

To maximize system performance, avoid electromagnetic interference as follows:

• Use a metal cabinet.
• Connect the 0V and functional ground points (if exist) directly to the earth ground of the system.
• Use the shortest, less than 1m (3.3 ft.) and thickest, 2.08mm² (14AWG) min, wires possible.

Communication Ports

Note that different controller models offer different serial and CANbus communication options. To see which options are relevant, check your controller’s technical specifications.

• Turn off power before making communications connections.

Caution

• Note that the serial ports are not isolated.
• Signals are related to the controller’s 0V; the same 0V is used by the power supply.
• Always use the appropriate port adapters.

Serial Communications
This series comprises 2 serial port can be set to either RS232 or RS485 according to jumper settings. By default, the ports are set to RS232.
Use RS232 to download programs from a PC, and to communicate with serial devices and applications, such as SCADA.

Use RS485 to create a multi-drop network containing up to 32 devices.

Caution

• The serial ports are not isolated. If the controller is used with a non isolated external device, avoid potential voltage that exceeds ± 10V.

Pinouts
The pinouts below show the signals between the adapter and port.

RS485		Controller Port
Pin #	Description
1	A signal (+)
2	(RS232 signal)
3	(RS232 signal)
4	(RS232 signal)
5	(RS232 signal)
6	B signal (-)

*Standard programming cables do not provide connection points for pins 1 and 6.

RS232 to RS485: Changing Jumper Settings

• To access the jumpers, open the controller and then remove the module’s PCB board.  Before you begin, turn off the power supply, disconnect and dismount the controller.
• When a port is adapted to RS485, Pin 1 (DTR) is used for signal A, and Pin 6 (DSR) signal is used for signal B.
• If a port is set to RS485, and flow signals DTR and DSR are not used, the port can also be used to communicate via RS232; with the appropriate cables and wiring.
• Before performing these actions, touch a grounded object to discharge any electrostatic charge.
• Avoid touching the PCB board directly. Hold the PCB board by its connectors.

Opening the controller

1. Turn power off before opening the controller.
2. Locate the 4 slots on the sides of the controller.
3. Using the blade of a flat-bladed screwdriver, gently pry off the back of the controller.
   
4. Gently remove the top PCB board:
   a. Use one hand to hold the top-most PCB board by its top and bottom connectors.
   b. With the other hand, grasp the controller, while keeping hold of the serial ports; this will keep the bottom board from being removed together with the top board.
   c. Steadily pull the top board off.
   
5. Locate the jumpers, and then change the jumper settings as required.
6. Gently replace the PCB board. Make certain that the pins fit correctly into their matching receptacle.
   a. Do not force the board into place; doing so may damage the controller.
7. Close the controller by snapping the plastic cover back in its place. If the card is placed correctly, the cover will snap on easily.

CANbus

These controllers comprise a CANbus port. Use this to create a decentralized control network of up to 63 controllers, using either Unitronics’ proprietary CANbus protocol or CANopen.
The CANbus port is galvanically isolated.

CANbus Wiring
Use twisted-pair cable. DeviceNet® thick shielded twisted pair cable is recommended.
Network terminators: These are supplied with the controller. Place terminators at each end of the CANbus network.
Resistance must be set to 1%, 1210, 1/4W.
Connect ground signal to the earth at only one point, near the power supply.
The network power supply need not be at the end of the network
