LAN2 Ethernet Port
HE-ETX2 is used in place of LAN2 for in order to utilize 2nd ethernet port functionality at this time due to components shortage issues. If multi-USB device functionality is needed, such as for USB flash drive or webcam utilization, a power USB hub may be used. The RTS5411 chipset was found to be functional in our testing.

Power Wiring

• DC Input / Frame
• Solid/Stranded Wire: 12-24 awg (2.5-0.2mm).
• Strip length: 0.28” (7mm).
• Torque, Terminal Hold-Down Screws: 4.5 – 7 in-lbs (0.50 – 0.78 N-m).

DC- is internally connected to I/O V-, but is isolated from CAN V-. A Class 2 power supply must be used.

POWER UP

1. OPTION: Attach ferrite core with a minimum of two turns of the DC+ and DC- signals from the DC supply that is powering the controllers.
2. Connect to earth ground.
3. Apply recommended power.

MODEL 2: 2 DC In, 6 Relay Out, 4 – 12-bit Analog In

MODEL 3: 12 DC In, 12 DC Out, 2 – 12-bit Analog In OV

MODEL 4: 24 DC In, 16 DC Out, 2 – 12-bit Analog In

MODEL 5: 2 DC In, 12 DC Out, 2–14/16-bit Analog In (mA/V/TC/mV/RTD), 2 – 12-bit Analog Out

MODEL 6: 2 DC In, 12 DC Out, 6 – 14/17-bit Analog In (mA/V/TC/mV/RTD), 4 – 12-bit Analog Out

Both mA & V outputs are active for each output channel, however, only the configured output type is calibrated (maximum 4 channels simultaneously).

Controller Dimensions & Installation

• The XL7 Prime utilizes a clip installation method to ensure a robust and watertight seal to the enclosure. Please follow the steps below for the proper installation and operation of the unit.
• This equipment is suitable for Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D or non-hazardous locations only.
• Digital outputs shall be supplied from the same source as the operator control station.
• Jumpers on connector JP1 shall not be removed or replaced while the circuit is live unless the area is known to be free of ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors.

1. Carefully locate an appropriate place to mount the XL7 Prime. Be sure to leave enough room at the top of the unit for insertion and removal of the microSD™ card.

2. Carefully cut the host panel per the diagram, creating a 131.2mm x 189.7mm with a +1.6mm /-0mm panel cutout tolerance, opening into which the XL7 Prime may be installed. If the opening is too large, water may leak into the enclosure, potentially damaging the unit. If the opening is too small, the OCS may not fit through the hole without damage.

3. Remove any burrs and or sharp edges and ensure the panel is not warped in the cutting process.

4. Remove all Removable Terminals from the XL7 Prime. Insert the XL7 Prime through the panel cutout (from the front). The gasket must be between the host panel and the XL7 Prime.

5. Install and tighten the four mounting clips (provided in the box) until the gasket forms a tight seal
   NOTE: Max torque is 0.8 to 1.13Nm, or 7 to 10 in-lbs.

6. Reinstall the I/O Removable Terminal Blocks. Connect communications cables to the serial port, USB ports, Ethernet port, and CAN port as required.

Precautions

All applicable codes and standards need to be followed in the installation of this product. Adhere to the following safety precautions whenever any type of connection is made to the module:

1. Connect the safety (earth) ground on the power connector first before making any other connections.
2. When connecting to the electric circuits or pulse-initiating equipment, open their related breakers.
3. Do NOT make connection to live power lines.
4. Make connections to the module first; then connect to the circuit to be monitored.
5. Route power wires in a safe manner in accordance with good practice and local codes.
6. Wear proper personal protective equipment including safety glasses and insulated gloves when making connections to power circuits.
7. Ensure hands, shoes, and floor are dry before making any connection to a power line.
8. Make sure the unit is turned OFF before making connection to terminals.
9. Make sure all circuits are de-energized before making connections.
10. Before each use, inspect all cables for breaks or cracks in the insulation. Replace immediately if defective.
11. Use copper conductors in Field Wiring only, 60/75°C.
12. Do not disconnect while circuit is live unless area is known to be non-hazardous.
13. Do not remove or replace jumpers or connectors while circuit is live unless the area is known to be free of ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors.
14. Use caution when making connections to the controller to protect against static discharge. Special care must be taken when replacing the battery or inserting or adjusting I/O or communication boards.
15. Use caution when connecting controllers to PCs via serial or USB. PCs, especially laptops may use “floating power supplies” that are ungrounded. This could cause a damaging voltage potential between the laptop and controller. Ensure the controller and laptop are grounded for maximum protection. Consider using a USB isolator due to voltage potential differences as a preventative measure.
16. Failure to follow these guidelines can damage the controller and/or other devices.

Hazardous Location Notice
Power, input and output (I/O) wiring must be in accordance with Class 1, Division 2 wiring methods [Article 501-4(b) of the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70] for installations in the U.S. or as specified in Section 18-1J2 of the Canadian Electrical Code for installations within Canada and in accordance with the authority having jurisdiction.

1. THIS EQUIPMENT IS SUITABLE FOR USE IN CLASS I, DIVISION 2, GROUPS A B C D or NON-HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS ONLY.
2. WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD – SUBSTITUTION OF COMPONENTS MAY IMPAIR SUITABILITY FOR CLASS I, DIVISION 2.
3. WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD – DO NOT DISCONNECT EQUIPMENT UNLESS POWER HAS BEEN SWITCHED OFF OR THE AREA IS KNOWN TO BE NONHAZARDOUS AND FREE OF IGNITABLE CONCENTRATIONS.
4. WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD – BATTERIES MUST ONLY BE CHARGED IN AN AREA KNOWN TO BE NON-HAZARDOUS.
5. WARNING – Battery may explode if mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of in fire.
