UltraBase40
Quick start guide
Welcome to Ultra!
All users of this product must carefully read the manual and take necessary safety precautions.
Safety instructions
If the product is not used as intended its protection and safety functions may not work.
Installation
The unit is to be mounted on a DIN rail in a locked cabinet. Installation is
carried out by a qualified electrician. Cables must be fastened and secured so
that no risk for injury or fire exists. Ventilation openings in the devise
housing may not be covered.
A circuit breaker shall be installed close to the unit and its power supply.
Function and position shall be clearly labelled. External voltage source
connected to DIGITAL OUT must be limited to a maximum of 0.5 A. The equipment
must be unplugged from the mains and other possibly dangerous voltage sources
during installation and service.
Power supply
UltraBase40 can be powered in several ways. Requirements and characteristics
of the unit’s inputs and outputs can be found in the table below.
Port| Supply| Supply expansion module (port Ex)| 24 V out
(port Out)| (out +12V)
---|---|---|---|---
(in +12V*)| 12 VDC (>300 mA)| No| No| Not available
VDC| 24 VDC (>300 mA)| 24 VDC, 1A| 24 VDC, 100 mA| 12 VDC, 100 mA
24V| 24 VAC (>300 mA)| No| No| 12 VDC, 100 mA
24 VDC (>300 mA)| No| No| 12 VDC, 100 mA
- Stabilized DC voltage.
** Use GND from the port Out.
The Power LED lights up when the device is energized and the Status LED lights up when the device has started up and is working.
Safety instructions
All external equipment connected to the device must have double or enhanced
isolation (class II) from power mains or other dangerous voltage source (>50
VAC or > 75 VDC).
Note that all cables used must be approved for at least 50 °C ambient
temperature.
At high ambient temperatures there is a risk for burning injuries. Wait for
the equipment to cool down, and use protective gloves.
Network connection
The unit is connected to a permanent network by the Ethernet port. The factory
default IP address is 10.0.48.94.
Local PC is used only to connect the unit directly to a PC. It has IP address
192.168.142.1, and can be used to configure the regular network connection in
the UltraBase40.
When you use the Local PC port, the computer should be configured for DHCP
(which it usually is).
-
Open a web browser and enter the IP address https://192.168.142.1 in the address bar. This will take you to the login page.
User name and password the first time you log in:
User name: config
Password: ef56 -
Go to the menu Communication and Network, and set the IP address and netmask, in order to configure the settings for the port marked Ethernet.
You can also use DHCP, the unit will then automatically get network settings. After a while, you can see which IP address it received. You can use this IP address to access the device from a PC, connected to the same network.
HTTPS
The first time that you log in to an Ultra, you will be warned that the
connection is not private, secure, or similar. This is because the system uses
HTTPS for a secure and encrypted connection. The security is guaranteed by a
certificate that is issued for a specific address. Since the address is
adjustable, there is only a self-signed certificate for the unit.
You need to accept and add this exception. The procedure differs depending on
which browser you are currently using. The communication is still encrypted,
so no-one can see, for example, which passwords are being used.
Graphical programming
Graphical programming is available as an installable program. Download it at
www.abelko.se.
There is also a link to the program in your units user interface under
Configuration and Graphical programming.
Analog outputs
There are eight analog outputs for 0-10 V, marked
AO.
The figure to the rigth is an example on how you can connect an AC-powered
valve controller.
Digital outputs
There are eight digital outputs marked DO. These are open drain outputs
with breaking capacity 0,5 A and 24 VDC at resistive load.
Temperature sensor inputs
There are eight inputs for resistive temperature sensors marked with T.
They have a measurement range 800 till 1580 Ohm and works for example with
PT1000 sensors (approximately -50ºC till 150ºC) and Ni1000 sensors.
Analog inputs
There are eight analog inputs marked AI. Input 1-4 can measure 0-10 V. Input
5-8 can measure 0-20 mA.
Digital inputs
There are eight digital inputs marked DI. Digital inputs can be used for
digital status. In addition to this, inputs 1-4 can be used as counters and
for frequency measurement.
Cleaning
The housing is cleaned from dust and dirt using a dry cloth. Do not use
chemicals.
Recycling
UltraBase40 should be recycled as electronics.
Repair and service
Reparation and service shall always be performed by Abelko Innovation.
Contact your distributor first if the need arises.
