Technical Description
3. Technical Description
The GIN-SAM4 is a high-performance eldbus master board by Indel. The powerful master is
perfectly suited for high-speed applications with complex and high technical requirements.
As a eldbus master for the Indel GinLink, the GIN-SAM4 can control and coordinate the entire
peripheral equipment of a machine with a closed-loop bus frequency of up to 64kHz.
3.1. Rotary- Switch
With the help of the rotary switch certain basic modes of operation can be selected. Do newest
information can always be found in the Wiki.

3.2. Mounting
3.2.1. Box mounting
The standalone box will be mounted on a grounded wall with two M5 screws. You have to ensu-
re adequate air circulation for cooling.
3.2.2. Shielded lines
It is essential to operate the RS232 interfaces with shielded leads. The shielding must be con-
nected inside the connector at both ends.The RS422 interface can be operated with twisted pair
wires. For short distances, an unshielded cable will sufce. For RS422 connections over long
distances (>400m), it is advisable to use a shielded twisted pair cable.
3.2.3. Grounding
The GIN-SAM4 board is grounded via its front panel. Make sure that the connection between
the rack housing and the control cabinet is conductive (EMC grounding). This is best achieved
using chromatized mounting bars. The box is grounded via the conductive backplane.

Technical Description
3.2.4. Shielding plate
If the StandAlone Master is installed together with drives of the SAC series in the same rack, a
shield plate must be inserted between the master and the drives. In addition, the manufacturer
recommends a minimum distance of 5 ... 10cm between the master and power-voltage-carrying
boards. Possibly provide an empty space.
3.3. Caution, laptop users
Observe the following sequence when connecting a laptop to a GIN-SAM4:
• Isolate the power supply of the laptop so that it is only supplied with power
from the battery.
• Connect the GIN-SAM4 and the laptop by an appropriate serial cable.
• Reconnect the power supply.
Reason: As a result of the electrical isolation, the laptop power supply levels are raised to a po-
tential of 110V (providing the laptop is supplied via the mains). Because there is no assurance
with conventional SUB-D connectors that the shield will contact before the signal lines,there is a
risk of potential equalization taking place via the signal ground line. This can destroy the related
SIO channel.
