Product Usage Instructions
Installation
The HE959CPU200 is a compact unit that mounts on a DIN rail. Follow the steps below for proper installation:
- Ensure that the distance between the wiring duct and the surrounding modules is at least 50mm apart.
- Add OCS-I/O modules after the OCS-I/O base has been installed on the DIN rail. Modules can be hot-swapped with power applied.
- Connect the bus connectors to form a backplane that can accept up to 8 modules, including the CPU200 or another base.
- Snap the bus connectors into the DIN rail following EN 60715 standards.
- Place the CPU200 on the leftmost connector and insert additional modules by latching at the top of the DIN rail first, then rocking each module down until it engages at the bottom of the DIN rail.
Safety
Follow all applicable codes and standards during the installation of this product to ensure safety.
Warnings
- WARNING: If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by Horner APG, the protection provided may be impaired.

INSTALLATION
- The HE959CPU200 is compact and mounts on a DIN rail. Each I/O module installed adds width in increments of 19mm.
NOTE: The distance between the wiring duct and surrounding modules should be at least 50mm apart. - OCS-I/O modules can be added after the OCS-I/O base has been installed on the DDIN rail and can be hot-swapped with power applied. I/O scanning will stop until the correct modules for the system are detected in all slots.
- I/O modules are physically added with the following procedure:
- Connect the bus connectors to form a backplane that can accommodate up to 8 modules, including the CPU200 or another base module.
- Snap the bus connectors into the DIN rail. The DIN rail should be 35 mm x 7.5 mm and made to EN 60715 standards.
- Place the CPU200 in the leftmost connector.
- Insert modules by latching at the top of the DIN rail first, then rocking each module down until the latch at the bottom of the DIN rail engages.
- To remove a module, insert a flat-blade screwdriver into the metal DIN rail latch at the bottom of the module. Press downwards to release the latch, then rock the module up and off the DIN Rail.
NOTE: Modules may be removed while powered; however, I/O scanning on the remaining modules will stop, and I/O will go to the default state until a new module is inserted and all modules in the configuration are present.
SAFETY
- All applicable codes and standards should be followed in the installation of this product.
- Shielded, twisted-pair wiring should be used for best performance.
- Shields should be grounded at one end only, preferably at the end providing the best noise shunting.
SAFETY WARNINGS
- WARNING
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by Horner APG, the protection it provides may be impaired. - WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD
Do not disconnect equipment unless power has been removed or the area is known to be non-hazardous - WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD
Substitution of any component may impair suitability for Class I, Division 2 - WARNING – POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Remove power from the I/O Base and any peripheral equipment connected to this local system before adding or replacing this or any module. - WARNING
Outputs should be connected to the same voltage levels (all connected to 24V supply sources) - WARNING
Digital Outputs are non-isolated and considered hazardous live. - WARNING
Loads for outputs require a Class 2 or Limited Power Source from a UL-listed power supply.

FAQ
- Can modules be removed while powered?
Yes, modules may be removed while powered; however, I/O scanning on the remaining modules will stop, and I/O will go to the default state until a new module is inserted and all modules in the configuration are present. - What are the primary power requirements for the HE959CPU200?
The HE959CPU200 requires a steady state power of 630 mA at 24VDC and an inrush power of 35A for 200s at 24VDC switched.
