2FX20/60 Supervisory Controllers Installation Instructions

Materials and Special Tools Needed

You may require the following materials and tools for

installation:

DIN Rail: type NS35/7.5 (35 x 7.5 mm) and DIN

rail end clips. Length of DIN rail depends on the

number of optional DIN rail mounted options.

If using a 24 VAC power module: UL Listed,

Class 2, 24 VAC transformer, rated at minimum of

8.5 VA to 20 VA, dedicated to powering the

FX20/FX60 and its accessories (cannot power

additional equipment).

Suitable screws and screwdriver for mounting DIN

rail or, if DIN rail is not used, for mounting bases of

FX20/FX60 and any optional accessories.

#2 Phillips screwdriver: used to install and remove

optional communication modules.

small flat-blade screwdriver: used for mounting

and removing the FX20/FX60 from the DIN rail

and for making wiring connections to the RS-485,

LONWORKS, and Input/Output (I/O) connectors.

Safety Precautions

The following information relates to the installation and

startup of the FX20/FX60.

WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock.

Disconnect power supply before making electrical

connections. Contact with components carrying

hazardous voltage can cause electric shock and

may result in severe personal injury or death.

AVERTISSEMENT: Risque de décharge

électrique. Débrancher l'alimentation avant de

réaliser tout branchement électrique. Tout contact

avec des composants conducteurs de tensions

dangereuses risque d'entraîner une décharge

électrique et de provoquer des blessures graves,

voire mortelles.

IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only. Make

all wiring connections in accordance with local,

national, and regional regulations. Do not exceed the

FX20/FX60 electrical ratings.

IMPORTANT: Do not install or use the FX20/FX60

in or near environments where corrosive substances

or vapor could be present. Exposure of the

FX20/FX60 to corrosive environments may damage

the device’s internal components, and will void the

warranty.

IMPORTANT: Use this FX20/FX60 only as an

operating control. Where failure or malfunction of the

FX20/FX60 could lead to personal injury or property

damage to the controlled equipment or other

property, additional precautions must be designed in

the control system. Incorporate and maintain other

devices, such as supervisory or alarm systems or

safety or limit controls, intended to warn of or protect

against failure or malfunction of the FX20/FX60.

FX Supervisory Controller Installation Instructions 3

Static Discharge Precautions

Static charges produce voltages high enough to

damage electronic components. The microprocessors

and associated circuitry within a FX20/FX60 are

sensitive to static discharge.

IMPORTANT: Work in a static-free area. Discharge

any static electricity you may have accumulated.

Discharge static electricity by touching a known,

securely grounded object. Do not handle the Printed

Circuit Board (PCB) without proper protection

against static discharge. Use a wrist strap when

handling PCBs. Secure the wrist strap clamp to

earth ground.

Accessories

The FX20/FX60 has a 20-pin, right-angle, Euro-DIN

connector that accepts accessory modules. The

connector provides power and signal lines to any

connected modules. The connector is located on the

end of the FX20/FX60 opposite the option cards.

IMPORTANT: Turn off power to the FX20/FX60

before inserting or unplugging accessory modules.

Wait for the LED activity to stop (all LEDs off).

CAUTION: Risk of Property Damage.

Do not apply power to the system before checking

all wiring connections. Short circuited or improperly

connected wires may result in permanent damage to

the equipment.

MISE EN GARDE: Risque dégâts matériels.

Ne pas mettre le système sous tension avant d'avoir

vérifié tous les raccords de câblage. Des fils formant

un court-circuit ou connectés de façon incorrecte

risquent d'endommager irrémédiablement

l'équipement.

Each accessory module has a DIN-mount base, and

typically provides two 20-pin connectors that allow you

to chain multiple accessories (see DIN Rail Mounting

Instructions). Table 1 lists the currently available

modules.

FX Supervisory Controller Installation Instructions 5

Mounting

Mount the FX20/FX60 in a location that allows

clearance for wiring, servicing, and module removal.

For mounting details, see Figure 2 through Figure 5.

Follow these recommendations and precautions

when mounting and installing the unit.

Use this controller for indoor use only. Do not

expose the unit to ambient conditions outside

the range of 0 to 50ºC (32 to 122ºF) and relative

humidity outside the range of non-condensing

5 to 95% (Pollution Degree 1).

For a controller mounted inside an enclosure,

ensure that the enclosure is designed to keep

the unit within its required operating range

(considering a 20-watt dissipation by the

controller). This is especially important if the

controller is mounted inside an enclosure with

other heat producing equipment.

Do not mount the unit:

in an area where excessive moisture,

corrosive fumes, or explosive vapors are

present

where vibration or shock is likely to occur

in a location subject to electrical noise. This

includes the proximity of large electrical

contactors, electrical machinery, welding

equipment, and spark igniters.

Physical Mounting

The following information applies to the physical

mounting of the FX20/FX60.

You do not need to remove the cover before

mounting.

Mount the FX20/FX60 in any orientation.

Mount the unit on a 35-mm wide DIN rail

(recommended). The FX20/FX60 unit base and

its accessories have molded DIN rail slots and

locking clips. Mounting these components on a

DIN rail ensures accurate alignment of

connectors between all modules.

If DIN rail mounting is impractical, use screws in

mounting tabs on the FX20/FX60 and in any

end-connected accessory (power module, NDIO

module). See Figure 2 for tab dimensions.

DIN Rail Mounting Instructions

To mount on DIN rail:

1. Securely install the DIN rail using at least 2

screws near both ends of the rail.

2. Position the FX20/FX60 on the rail, then tilt it to

hook the DIN rail tabs over one edge of the DIN

rail (see Figure 3).

3. Use a screwdriver to pry down the plastic

locking clip, and push the FX20/FX60 down and

in, which forces the locking clip to snap over the

edge of the DIN rail.

4. Mount the accessory modules (NDIO modules

and power module) onto the DIN rail in the

same manner (see Figure 5). See Table 1 for

quantities allowed.

5. Slide the accessory along the DIN rail to

connect its 20-position plug into the

FX20/FX60.

6. Repeat these instructions for all accessories,

until all are mounted on the DIN rail and firmly

connected to each other. For an example, see

Figure 4.

To keep the final assembly together, secure at both

ends with DIN rail end-clips. This also prevents the

assembly from sliding on the DIN rail. See Figure 4.

Removing and Replacing the Cover

The FX20/FX60 cover is removable. You must remove

the FX20/FX60 cover to connect the battery on a new

unit, to replace the battery on an existing unit or to

install any optional communication cards. The cover

snaps onto the base with four plastic tabs (two on

each end). To remove the cover, press in the four tabs

on both ends of the unit and lift off the cover.

Note: If accessory modules are plugged into the

FX20/FX60, you may need to slide them away from

the unit to get to the cover tabs.

To replace the cover, position it so the cutout area for

the communication ports is correct, then push inward

to snap in place.

Expansion Options

The FX20/FX60 provides for field-installable expansion

with two options:

Option Cards: these are installed on connectors

inside the FX20/FX60 base unit. See Option

Cards.

Accessory Modules: these are chained onto the

FX20/FX60’s 20-pin connector. See Accessories.

Option Cards

The FX20/FX60 has 2 options slots for custom option

cards designed for use with the

FX20/FX60. Each slot has a 20-pin connector on the

FX20/FX60 base unit.

CAUTION: Risk of Property Damage.

Do not apply power to the system before checking

all wiring connections. Short circuited or improperly

connected wires may result in permanent damage to

the equipment.

IMPORTANT: Be careful to plug an option card into

the connector properly with its pins properly aligned.

Option cards typically provide additional

communication capabilities, such as those listed in

Table 2. For a list of supported COM port and slot

assignments for the option cards, see Table 3.

RS-232 port becomes active immediately following a reboot. This allows an RS-232 connection to the serial shell for

debugging purposes. To re-enable the modem, you must put the mode jumper back in the Normal position and reboot.
