Remote Terminal Panels
Optional DIN rail mounted Remote Terminal Panels (RTPs) are available for use with pre-wired cables to reduce installation
time and labor expense. Three types of RTPs are available: analog inputs, relay outputs, and other I/O modules. Three cable
lengths are also available to match hardware to installation variations. Analog inputs RTPs include transmitter shunt resistors
and transmitter power terminals with individual circuit fuses. The Relay Output RTP includes a fuse and power disconnect
switch for each output. All the three types of RTP panels also switch power to allow module removal and installation under
controller power. See page 34.
Terminal Blocks
20-screw Barrier style and Euro style terminal blocks are available for use with all ControlEdge HC900 I/O Modules.
Red terminal blocks are used for high voltage connections for added safety while black terminal blocks are used for low
voltage connections. A 36-terminal Euro style block is available with the 16 AI, the 8 and 16 AO as well as the 32 DC DI and
32 DC DO module types. See page 27.
Specifications for modules
I/O Module Attributes
Remove & Insert under power
Standard. Modules are automatically sensed and configured on insertion. Field power
shall be disconnected before removing field terminal blocks.
LED Channel State indicators
Via light pipes at front of module, one state LED for each digital I/O point – green
indicates ON, logic side
LED Module Status indicator
Via light pipe, one per module, tri-color to represent module status, Green = OK, Red
= Fault (# of flashes indicates fault), Amber = Override (Force)
I/O Labels
51304453-100
Color-coded, on module door, removable, with write-on area to label I/O
Processor
Micro-controller per module for parallel processing
Terminal Boards
20 screw: Barrier or Euro style, tin-plated or gold-plated (for DC connections)
36 screw: Euro style gold plated (Required with certain higher capacity modules)
Keying
Hardware keying matches each module to its terminal block with its field wiring.
