PRELIMINARY WARNINGS
- Before performing any operation is mandatory to read the full contents of this manual. The module may only be used by qualified and skilled technicians in the field of electric installation. Specific documentation is available for download at website: www.Seneca.it/products/z-pass1.Only the Manufacturer is authorized to repair the module or to replace damaged parts. The product is susceptible to electrostatic discharge, take appropriate countermeasures during any operation.No warranty is guaranteed in connection with faults resulting from improper use, from modifications or repairs carried out by Manufacturer-unauthorized personnel on the device, or if the content of this user manual is not followed.Disposal of electrical & electronic equipment (applicable throughout the EU and other countries with separate collection programs). The symbol found on this product or on its packaging indicates that this product it must be handed over to an applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment.
INSTALLATION RULES: These are open-type devices and intended for installation in an end enclosure/panel offering mechanical protection and protection against spread of fire.
In order to ensure optimum performance and the best device’s operating life, the module(s) must be provided with adequate ventilation without raceways or other objects that can obstruct the ventilation slots. Never install the modules near heat sources.
We recommend installation in the lower part of the control panel.
MODBUS CONNECTION STANDARD:Install the modules on the DIN rail.Connect the remote modules using cables of proper length (see Scheme.On the table the following data about the length of the cable are provided:
- Bus Length: Modbus network maximum length as a function of the Baud rate. It is the length of the cables which connect the two bus terminators modules (see Scheme. Drop Length (DL): maximum length of a drop line (see Scheme .
INSTALLATION ON AND REMOVAL FROM IEC EN 60715 DIN RAIL
Insertion on the IEC EN 60715 DIN rail:
- Move the two hooks on the back of the module outwards as illustrated
- Insert the module rear IDC10 connector into a free slot of the DIN rail accessory as you can see in the insertion is one way only because the connectors are polarized).
- To secure the module to the IEC EN 60715 DIN rail, tighten the two hooks on the side of the IDC10 rear connector as shown in
Removal from IEC EN 60715 DIN rail:
As shown in
- Move outwards the two hooks on the side of the module, with the help of a screwdriver.
- Extract the module from the IEC EN 60715 DIN rail.
USE OF Z-PC-DINAL ACCESSORY:Please pay attention about the right module insertion the IDC10 connector (Z-PC-DINAL1-35). The IDC10 connector located on the rear of the module will be inserted on a free slot of Z-PC-DIN/DINAL accessory. In the figure you can see the meaning of the various pins of the rear IDC10 connector if you want to provide the signals directly through this connector. The pictures Pic.3 and Pic.4 show how to connect power supply and RS485 COM2 port to the rear IDC10 connector.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
In order to satisfy the electromagnetic compliance requirements:
- Use shielded cables for signals transmission.
- Connect the shield to a preferential ground for devices.
- Space the shielded cables from power cables installations.(transformers, inverters, motors, induction ovens, etc…).
POWER SUPPLY
In addition to the IDC10 connector, power supply can also be supplied by terminals 17 and 18.
NOTA: A minimum 1A safety fuse, delayed, must be installed in the power supply line near the device.Z-PASS1 module has two serial communication RS485 ports: COM2 and COM4.
the RS485 COM2 port can be connected through 1-2-3 screw terminals or by rear IDC10 connector.
