HARDWAREPROTOCOL CONVERSIONINSTALLATIONMount the PTV as shown under Hardware Installation Figure 1 above. Installthe rubber end cap. The end cap protectsthe pins from damage. Configurethe PTV for zero modules.DIN rail should be mounted horizontally so that the unit’s ventilation holesare vertical in relation to cabinet orientation. A minimum clearance of 1 inch(25.4 mm) should be maintained above and below the unit in order to ensureproper thermal regulation. A minimum top clearance of 3.00 inch is neededwhen using the USB/PG port.The unit shall be installed inside a UL Listed Industrial Control Panel orsimilar type of enclosure. A minimum 3.2 mm distance shall be maintainedbetween the hazardous live parts of the equipment and accessible parts of thefire/electrical enclosure.1POWER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTSIt is very important that the power supply is mounted correctly if the unit isto operate reliably. Please take care to observe the following points:– The power supply must be mounted close to the unit, with usually not morethan 6 feet (1.8 m) of cable between the supply and the master. Ideally, theshortest length possible should be used.– The wire used to connect the PTV’s power supply should be at least 22-gagewire. If a longer cable run is used, a heavier gage wire should be used. Therouting of the cable should be kept away from large contactors, inverters,and other devices which may generate significant electrical noise.– A power supply with an NEC Class 2 or Limited Power Source (LPS) andSELV rating is to be used. This type of power supply provides isolation toaccessible circuits from hazardous voltage levels generated by a mainspower supply due to single faults. SELV is an acronym for “safety extralow voltage.” Safety extra-low voltage circuits shall exhibit voltages safeto touch both under normal operating conditions and after a single fault,such as a breakdown of a layer of basic insulation or after the failure of asingle component has occurred.Visit www.redlion.net for a complete list of our PSDR Series of NEC Class 2power supplies.REMOVE2Figure 1 - Attach PTV Station To DIN Rail and RemoveRubber End CapTOPDEPRESS1.00" min. clearance; 3.00" when using USB/PG port.3STSUSB HOSTDVI4RS232/PGDIN RAILRS232RS4854ETHERNETCF1.00" min. clearanceEMC INSTALLATION GUIDELINESAlthough Red Lion Controls Products are designed with a high degree ofimmunity to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), proper installation and wiringmethods must be followed to ensure compatibility in each application. The typeof the electrical noise, source or coupling method into a unit may be differentfor various installations. Cable length, routing, and shield termination are veryimportant and can mean the difference between a successful or troublesomeinstallation. Listed are some EMI guidelines for a successful installation in anindustrial environment.BOTTOMFigure 2 - Attach Slave Bases To DIN RailSTSUSB HOSTDVIRS232/PG1. To reduce the chance of noise spikes entering the unit via the power lines,connections should be made to a clean source. Connecting to circuits that alsopower loads such as contactors, relays, motors, solenoids etc. should be avoided.2. The unit should be mounted in a metal enclosure, which is properly connectedto protective earth.3. Use shielded (screened) cables for all Signal and Control inputs. The shield(screen) pigtail connection should be made as short as possible. Theconnection point for the shield depends somewhat upon the application.Listed below are the recommended methods of connecting the shield, in orderof their effectiveness.a. Connect the shield to earth ground (protective earth) at one end where theunit is mounted.b. Connect the shield to earth ground at both ends of the cable, usually whenthe noise source frequency is over 1 MHz.c. Connect the shield to common of the master and leave the other end of theshield unconnected and insulated from earth ground.4. Never run Signal or Control cables in the same conduit or raceway with ACpower lines, conductors feeding motors, solenoids, SCR controls, andheaters, etc. The cables should be run through metal conduit that is properlygrounded. This is especially useful in applications where cable runs are longand portable two-way radios are used in close proximity or if the installationis near a commercial radio transmitter. Also, Signal or Control cables withinan enclosure should be routed as far away as possible from contactors, controlrelays, transformers, and other noisy components.DIN RAIL5RS232RS485ETHERNETCFFigure 3 - Attach Termination Plug** Supplied with PTV Station.STSUSB HOSTDVIRS232/PGDIN RAILRS232RS485ETHERNETCFFigure 4 - Installation Complete3

5. Long cable runs are more susceptible to EMI pickup than short cable runs.Therefore, keep cable runs as short as possible.6. In extremely high EMI environments, the use of external EMI suppressiondevices is effective. The following EMI suppression devices (or equivalent)are recommended:Ferrite Suppression Cores for signal and control cables:Fair-Rite part number 0443167251 (RLC part number FCOR0000)TDK part number ZCAT3035-1330ASteward part number 28B2029-0A0Line Filters for input power cables:Schaffner part number FN2010-1/07 (RLC part number LFIL0000)Schaffner part number FN670-1.8/07Corcom part number 1 VR3Visit RLC’s web site at www.redlion.net for more information on EMIguidelines, Safety and CE issues as they relate to Red Lion Controls products.WIRINGPOWER CONNECTIONUSB/PG 24VCOMMPROGRAMMING VIUSB HERNETEthernet (Crossover)GREEN/AMBER LEDYELLOW LEDCOMMUNICATION USB HOSTRS232/PGRS232ORRS485ETHERNETCFPOWERSLC 5/03 CPURUNFORCEFLTDH485BATTRUNRS232REMPROGPWR OUT 24VDCPWR OUT COM120/240 VACVAC NEUTCHASSIS GNDCBLxxxxx*4USERPOWERCHASSIS GND 24 VCOMMON

Crimson is available as afree download from Red Lion’s website. Updates to Crimson for new featuresand drivers are posted on the website as they become available. By configuringthe PTV using the latest version of Crimson, you are assured that your unit hasthe most up to date feature set. Crimson software can configure the PTV throughthe RS232/PG port, USB/PG port, Ethernet or CompactFlash. The USB/PG portis connected using a standard USB cable with a Type B connector.The driver needed to use the USB port will be installed with Crimson. TheRS232/PG port uses a programming cable made by Red Lion to connect to theDB9 COM port of your computer. If making your own cable, refer to the “PTVPort Pin Outs” for wiring information.The CompactFlash can be used to program a PTV by placing a configurationfile and firmware on the CompactFlash card. The card is then inserted into thetarget PTV and powered. Refer to the Crimson literature for more informationon the proper names and locations of the files.WARNING - USB PORT IS FOR SYSTEM SET-UP ANDDIAGNOSTICS AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR PERMANENTCONNECTION.In order to transfer data from the CompactFlash card via the USB port, adriver must be installed on your computer. This driver is installed with Crimsonand is located in the folder C:\Program Files\Red Lion Controls\Crimson x.x\Device\ after Crimson is installed. This may have already been accomplished ifyour PTV was configured using the USB port.Once the driver is installed, connect the PTV to your PC with a USB cable, andfollow “Mounting the CompactFlash” instructions in the Crimson user manual.Note that using the USB port for frequent data transfers is not recommended.For frequent data transfers it is recommended that the Ethernet connection beused. Through the Ethernet connection a web page can be set up to view loggeddata. Refer to the Crimson manual for details.CABLES AND DRIVERSNote: The USB port is for system set-up and diagnostics and is not intended forpermanent connection.Red Lion has a wide range of cables and drivers for use with many differentcommunication types. A list of these drivers and cables along with pin outs isavailable from Red Lion’s website. New cables and drivers are added on aregular basis. If making your own cable, refer to the “PTV Port Pin Outs” forwiring information.ETHERNET COMMUNICATIONSEthernet communications can be established at either 10 BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. The PTV’s RJ45 jack is wired as a NIC (Network Interface Card).For example, when wiring to a hub or switch use a straight-through cable, butwhen connecting to another NIC use a crossover cable.The Crimson manual contains additional information on Ethernetcommunications.6

RS232 PORTSCF LEDThe PTV has two RS232 ports. There is the RS232/PG port and the COMMSport. Although only one of these ports can be used for programming, both portscan be used for communications with a PLC. The RS232/PG port can be usedfor either master or slave protocols.LEDRS422/485 PORTThe PTV has one RS422/485 port.
