General Information
Power Requirement
24 VDC power must be supplied to the PANELWARE Controller unit. The Controller, in turn, supplies the Keyblock and Display modules with power.
When estimating the total 24 VDC power consumption for a system, add up the 24 VDC power supply requirements for all of the PANELWARE components being used, then add an additional 30% to allow for power on surge currents. Refer to the PANELWARE™ Hardware Installation User’s Guide
Connecting Power to the Controller
The 24 VDC power connector on the Controller is located on the top left corner of the unit. The mating connector is supplied with each Controller.
Caution
Do not try to run PANELWARE off a Series
The suitability of a Series
All components of a PLC and the devices it is controlling must be properly grounded. This is particularly important for the reasons listed below:
■A
■PANELWARE Operator Panels require proper grounding for correct operation.
The importance of grounding can not be over emphasized.
Setting Number Switches
Number switch settings on the Panel Controller can be set using a small flathead screwdriver to turn the switch dial to the desired setting (so that the arrow points at the desired setting).
The assembled Panel configuration provides minimal space to reach the number switches once the Panel is installed. If possible, these settings should be made before the Controller is installed.
