DESCRIPTION
The Leviton UPB™ Three-Phase Repeater (TPR) is a small electronic device that enables communication between devices using the Universal Powerline Bus (UPB™) method
of communication (such as HLC devices) on a three-phase 120/208VAC delta-wye, 60Hz powerline. The main purpose of the TPR is to transfer UPB™ multi-packet messages
transmitted on one phase (leg) of the electrical system and strongly repeating them on to the other phases (legs) to ensure proper communication.
UPB™ communication was designed to work on a single phase powerline. In a three-phase environment, the signals will not directly jump across all three phases of a 120/208V
electrical system. The TPR is designed to take any UPB™ multi-packet generated signal on a single phase and repeat them onto all three phases of the powerline.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. TO AVOID FIRE, SHOCK, OR DEATH; TURN OFF POWER at circuit breaker or fuse and test that power is off before wiring!
2. Install the TPR into a suitable junction box or equivalent enclosure.
3. Run wires from a three-pole circuit breaker to the workbox for Phase A, Phase B, Phase C, and Neutral (see illustration).
4. Use wire nuts to connect the black wire of the TPR to Phase A, and the red wire to Phase B, and the blue wire to Phase C. Connect the white wire of the TPR to Neutral. Check
that there are no bare wires protruding and cover the wire nuts with insulating tape if necessary.
5. Check all wiring and connections, and turn on the main breaker.
6. All three status LED indicators will light up if all of the connections are proper.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
•
TO AVOID FIRE, SHOCK, OR DEATH; TURN OFF POWER at circuit breaker or fuse and
test that power is off before wiring!
• To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and regulations.
• If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult an electrician.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
• This product must be installed in a suitable junction box or equivalent enclosure.
• Use this device with
copper or copper-clad wire only.
• For indoor use only.
• SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
CONFIGURATION
Although the TPR will operate without any configuration, Leviton recommends that you use the UPB™ UPStart configuration software to add the TPR to the UPB network with a
Unit ID. Once added to the network, UPStart can then be used to adjust the receive sensitivity of the TPR and perform communication tests between other devices to insure proper
system signal strength.
Adding the TPR to the UPStart Network
The TPR is added in to a network just like most other UPB™ devices.
Select Device Add Device
, place the TPR into Setup Mode, and then click the
Next button. To place
the TPR into Setup Mode, press the Program Button 5 times. To exit Setup Mode, press the Program Button twice. While in Setup Mode, the LED indicators will blink blue. Once the
TPR is added to the network, it may be assigned a Room and Device Name that is used for identification purposes.
Performing Communication Tests
It is important that the communication of your UPB™ network be tested to insure proper system signal strength. UPStart has a Repeater Communication Test that will test how well
each device communicates with the TPR and how well the TPR communicates with all devices. The Repeater Communication Test will show a record of the signal strength, noise
level, and phase at all devices.
