Installation Steps

The installation involves mounting the controller unit and connecting various modules.

1. Mounting the Controller Unit

   Diagrams show attaching the controller unit to a wall or enclosure using screws. Ensure the unit is securely fastened.

   Steps 1 and 2 illustrate mounting the main unit.

2. Connecting DCM-DyNet

   Connect the DCM-DyNet cable to the designated port on the controller. The connection requires a specific torque of 1 Nm (8.8 Lb-in).

   Diagram 6 shows the connection of the DCM-DyNet cable with a torque specification.

3. Module Configuration and Wiring

   The system comprises Output Modules (1-4), a Supply Module, and a Communications Module. The diagrams illustrate how these modules are interconnected and wired.

   Wiring Overview:

   • Output Module 1-4: Connected via N1, L1, N2, L2, N3, L3 terminals and a BUS connection.
   • Supply Module: Provides +24V and GND, and connects to the BUS.
   • Communications Module: Connects via BUS.

   Specific wiring examples are shown for connecting the Supply Module to Output Modules 1, 2, 3, and 4, including phase (L1, L2, L3) and neutral (N) connections.

   Safety Symbols:

   • IEC Pollution Degree II: Indicates the level of environmental contamination the device can withstand.
   • IEC Overvoltage Category III: Indicates protection against transient overvoltages.
   • A lightning bolt symbol ⚡ indicates a potential electrical hazard. A green checkmark ✔️ indicates a correct connection, while a red cross ❌ indicates an incorrect connection or procedure.

   Diagrams 10A and 10B detail the wiring configurations for the modules.

4. Connecting Other Devices

   Diagrams illustrate connections for DSM4 units and communication protocols like RS-485 DyNet, potentially involving DMC2 and DMC4 devices.

   Diagrams 11, 12, and 13 show system integration and communication connections.

5. Final Assembly

   Secure the front lid top cover after all internal connections are made. The installation process involves fastening the unit with screws, with specific steps numbered 1 through 4.

   Diagram 14 shows the final assembly steps, including screw placement.

Important Safety Notices

• Device must be de-energized before terminating cables.
• Do not energize without the front lid top cover in place.
