Intuitive Expansion Boards

Description
The Intuitive Expansion boards, detailed below, are intended for use with either the Intuitive controller (PR0650) or the DMTouch with a CANbus network interface. The expansion boards allow for additional inputs and outputs to expand upon the parent device’s operation and functionality (such as TDB, Super Pack, CO2 or Circuit Control). A single Intuitive controller or DMTouch can have up to 10 expansion boards connected at any one time. The expansion boards have an in-built CANbus interface which allows for networking to the master device. All IO connectors are plug and socket and all within a small footprint which is panel or DIN rail mountable. A DIN mount, 24V 2A PSU (PR0625) is available for use with the expansion boards.

Configuration
The expansion boards have no configuration until they have been configured in the master device to which they are connected. Please see the relevant documentation for their setup.
Networks
The expansion boards have a built-in CANbus network interface that allows for connection to the Intuitive, DMTouch or another expansion board. For it to communicate successfully the Module ID rotary switch must be set to the desired address on each expansion board. Please refer to the Intuitive Controller user document
(TDB for example) with regards to mapping the Expansion boards.

Connecting to the controller
The master device (Intuitive or DMTouch) allows for the utilisation of an expansion board’s inputs and outputs. The status of each input and output can be viewed from the main device’s web pages. The expansion boards cannot be viewed directly.

The module contains an internal back-up power supply based on Electric Double-Layer Capacitor (supercapacitor) technology that is used to close the valve when a power fail is detected. The module will run as configured in TDB until power to the module is interrupted – at which point the module internally detects this power failure and initiates an emergency closure of the valve. A list of valves that can be configured to utilise this feature is provided within the Technical specification. In the event of CANbus communication being lost with the main controller, after 1 minute the PR0653 will set the valve position to the last hour average opening position while the PR0653-C will shut the valve fully until communications are re-established.

·          Charge times apply to supercapacitors that have been completely discharged.

·          A full valve closure is possible even if the module is not completely charged depending on the valves energy usage.

·          The relay output is controlled using TDB under normal operating conditions however if a power fail is detected the relay is de-energised. This allows the relay to function as a power fail alarm by being set permanently on in TDB until a power fail overrides this and disables it.

LED Functions
Status Flash green when module is active.
Reset Solid red when module is in reset.
Relay Solid blue when relay is energized.
 

Charge

Flash green when module is charging – pulse length proportional to charge level.

Solid green when module is charged.

Power Fail Flash red when power to the module has been interrupted.

Note: guaranteed valve closure subject to configuration of valve parameters

Note

  1. 24 Vac must have the same 24 Vac return as the supply voltage. If using the Plant controller 24V power supply only the 24Vac signal from the supply is required for the digital input. If using an external 24V power supply to signal a status change then both a common (0V) and status input signal (24V) is required for the appropriate digital input.
  2. A variety of probes can be used by the Data Builder Analogue block or a custom probe curve can be programmed.
  3. The Universal Inputs/Outputs are configured through the Plant controller TDB software. Each universal
    IO can be set as either:
    • 0-10 Volts DC Input or
    • 0-10 Volts DC Output or
    • 4-20ma Output or
    • 4-20mA Input (4-20mA current loop, use the 12 Vdc output to feed the 4-20mA device.)
  4. *Important
    • If a 24v AC supply is used to power the stepper expansion board, the same AC supply cannot be used to power the stepper valve, the stepper valve requires its own separate power supply.
    •  If a 24V DC supply is used however, it can be used to power both the stepper expansion board and the stepper valve.
  5. If using an Intuitive TDB, rotary switch position 1 refers to board 1. If using Intuitive Pack (SUP, CO2 etc.) rotary switch position 0 refers to board 1. Please refer to the appropriate controller user guide with regards to mapping the available inputs/ outputs on a desired expansion board to a Plant controller.

To meet UL (Underwriters Laboratories) compliance, the equipment must be powered by external power supply or power source via terminal connectors which circuits shall be compliant with the requirements of ES1 and PS2 (LPS) circuits.

Installation

Mounting on to a DIN rail.
The Intuitive controller has two or three DIN rail mounting feet which can slide in and out to three different positions, sliding into each position is accompanied by a “click” which locks the foot into that position.

alpscontrols-PR066X-Intuitive-Controller-Expansion-Boards-14

To install the controller onto a DIN mounting rail, from the fully pushed in position slide the top mounting foot out by 2 clicks so that the foot is clear of the DIN rail channel. Slide the bottom two feet out by one click so that they are protruding slightly into the DIN rail channel. The controller can now be inserted onto the DIN rail by inserting the bottom lip of the DIN rail behind the two bottom mounting feet.

The controller can now be pushed flat onto the DIN rail and the top foot pushed in 2 clicks to hold the controller in place. Finally, push the bottom foot (or feet) in by one click to secure the controller.

The mounting feet also have M3 holes for direct mounting where DIN rail is not being used.

Please ensure all power is switched off before installing or maintaining this product.
