To Complete a Centralized Installation
1.
Inspect the shipping cartons to see if any obvious shipping damage has occurred. If the items have
been damaged, contact the carrier immediately and file a damage claim. Take pictures of the
damaged cartons.
2.
Unpack the instruments and keep the cartons. If you filed a claim with the freight company, their
inspector may want to see the boxes. Inspect the instruments and associated peripherals. If
damaged, take pictures and file a claim with the freight company if you feel they are at fault.
Contact APP Engineering, Inc. if any kind of damage has occurred.
3.
Carefully review the print set that was provided with the recorder.
4.
Remove any power from the panels that you will be installing equipment into or working in.
5.
Install the rack mount Computer Control chassis and Data chassis into your desired panel. Each
chassis should be installed with (4) fasteners. Since panels utilize various size screws for rack
mount instruments, fasteners have not been provided (unless special arrangements have been
made).
6.
Install the din rail mount Ethernet switch. It is preferred that the Ethernet switch be mounted in the
same panel as the Computer Control chassis and Data chassis. A small piece of din rail has been
provided. At the request of the customer, APP Engineering can mount the Ethernet switch to the
back of a 3U rack mount panel.
7.
In a centralized installation, data chassis are usually installed in the same panel as the computer
chassis. However, some data chassis can be mounted in other panels. A shielded straight Ethernet
cable and 1PPS co-axial cable will need to be pulled from the Ethernet switch and last data chassis
in the centralized panel, respectively, to the data chassis.
8.
Ensure that all circuit board cards are seated properly and the holding screws are tight. Open the
front panel doors on each chassis and ensure that internal power supplies, connectors, and
computer are in proper position and secured in place. Ensure that no foreign objects are lying in
the chassis.
9.
Ground all chassis to your panel grounding bars. The distance from any chassis to a panel
grounding bar(s) should not exceed 16 ft. Grounding braid has been provided. Ensure that your
panel ground bars are properly earth grounded.
*WARNING*
Proper grounding procedures must be followed to prevent serious
injury or death to people who may come in contact with this recording
equipment.
10.
Review the Point Assignment Record that your company provided to APP Engineering, Inc. APP
strives to get these records prior to shipment so the instrument internal settings are complete. Prior
to connecting signals to the analog channels, the user must know if a particular channel has been
designated as a voltage channel or current channel. Each analog channel has
two jumpers
that
configure it for a voltage or current input. If the Point Assignment Record was received prior to
shipment, the factory has already made the correct jumper settings.
11.
Wire the recorder analog channels. The analog channels will accept a maximum wire size of
12AWG. The terminal block screws are #6. The maximum input to a voltage channel is 440VAC.
The maximum continuous current thru a current channel is 15Amps.
12.
Wire the recorder event (digital) channels. The event channels utilize a pluggable 16 position
connector. The maximum wire size for this connector is 14AWG. The standard input voltage
range is 45-250Vdc. Event Boards setup for 24Vdc are available as an option. Reference the print
set for any notes designating event channels that require 24Vdc or event boards that are
Internally
Wetted
as opposed to our typical board that needs external wetting. If the events have a common
