Electrical Installation of Scanner
The cable used to connect the scanner(s) to the VC3500 control should have a minimum of three conductors (18-22
AWG) and a shield.
To connect the scanner to the control, follow these steps:
1. Insert the scanner cable into the control enclosure through a cord grip located on the bottom panel of the control.
2. Connect the scanner cable to one of the three-terminal connectors labeled “scanner-1”, “scanner-2”, “scanner 3”,
or “scanner 4”. (A two-channel control only has “scanner 1” and scanner 2”.)
Note!
On a two-channel control, the “scanner-1” connector must be used for the scanner installed for channel 1.
This scanner can also be used to control channel 2. If separate scanners are desired to control channel 1
and channel 2, the “scanner-1” connector must be used for the scanner installed for channel 1, and the
“scanner-2” connector must be used for the scanner installed for channel 2.
On a four-channel control, the “scanner-3” connector must be used for the scanner installed for channel
3. This scanner can also be used to control channel 4. If separate scanners are desired to control channel 3
and channel 4, the “scanner-3” connector must be used for the scanner installed for channel 3, and the
“scanner-4” connector must be used for the scanner installed for channel 4.
Connections are as follows:
Pin 1: +12VDC—red
Pin 2: Scanner signal—green
Pin 3: Return—black
3. Connect shield wire(s) to the protective earth (P.E.) terminals located near cord-grip base plate.
4. Tighten the cord grip used by the scanner cable(s).
Glue Valve Installation
Electrical Installation of Glue Valve
The glue valve cable should have a minimum of two conductors (18-20 AWG) and a shield (four conductors and a
shield if a remote purge is required).
To connect the glue valve to the control, follow these steps:
1. Insert the glue valve cable into the control through a cord grip located on the bottom panel of the control.
2. Connect glue valve cable to the connectors labeled “valve-1” or “valve-2.”
Note!
On a two-channel control, the “valve-1” connector must be used as the interface point for the glue valve
controlled by channel 1. The “valve-2” connector must be used as the interface point for the glue valve
controlled by channel 2 (Figure 8).
On a four-channel control, the bottom valve driver board is for channels 1 and 2. The top driver board is
for channels 3 and 4.
