Installation • • • • Decide on the thickness of the enclosure wall, based on the level of strength required: 1.6 mm (0.06 in.) to 5 mm (0.2 in.). Even if panel thickness is within recommend range for “Panel Cut Dimensions”, the panel could warp, depending on panel’s material, size, and installation location of GP unit or other devices. To prevent panel warpage, the installation surface may need to be strengthened.
Installation When installing the GP unit in a slanted position with an incline more than 30°, the ambient temperature must not exceed 40 °C (104 °F). You may need to use forced air cooling (fan, A/C) to ensure the ambient operating temperature is 40°C or less (104 °F or less). For easier maintenance, operation and improved ventilation, install the GP unit at least 100 mm (3.94 in.) away from adjacent structures and other equipment as shown in the following illustration. • 100 3.94 • 100 3.94 100 3.

Installation English 4 Insert the installation fasteners into the GP unit’s insertion slots on the top and bottom sides. (left and right sides for the GP-4200 Series.) If the fasteners are not correctly attached, the GP unit may shift or fall out. Installation Panel Hook Slots Slots (GP-4201T) 22 (GP-4301T) 5 Slide the fasteners to the back. 6 Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten each fastener screw and secure the GP unit in place. The necessary torque is 0.5 Nm (4.4 lb-in).
Installation English NOTICE BROKEN ENCLOSURE • Do not exert more than 0.5 Nm (4.4 in-lb) of torque when tightening the fastener’s screws. • For use on a flat surface of a Type 1, Type 4X (Indoor Use Only) or Type 13 Enclosure Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

Removal Procedures Step Action 1 Loosen the installation fasteners (4) from the GP unit. 2 Remove the GP unit slowly from the panel while pressing the projections on the top of the GP unit. (1) (1) (1) projections Note : • You could damage the GP unit if you try and remove it without holding down the projections. • Watch your fingers so they do not get caught when holding down the projections.
Wiring English Wiring WARNING HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR ARC FLASH • Remove all power from the device before removing any elements of the system, and prior to installing or removing any accessories, hardware, or cables. • Remove power before wiring the GP unit’s power terminals. • The DC model uses only 24 Vdc power. Using any other level of power can damage both the power supply and the GP unit. • The AC model is designed to use 100 Vac to 240 Vac input.
Wiring English 1. Connecting the AC Power Cord Use copper conductors only. The temperature rating of field installed conductors: 75C° (167°F) only.

Note: The DC power supply connector (plug) for GP-4200/4300/4400 Series is PFXZCBCNDC1 (manufactured by Pro-face). The DC power supply connector (plug) for GP-4500 Series / GP-4600 Series is PFXZCBCNDC2 (manufactured by Pro-face). Recommended Driver SZS 0.6x3.
Wiring How to connect the DC Power Cord Action 1 Confirm the power cord is not connected to the power supply. 2 Check the rated voltage, and remove the “DC24V” sticker on the DC power supply connector. 3 Remove 10 mm (0.39 in.) of the vinyl membrane off the ends of the power cord wires. mm in. English Step 10 0.39 4 If using stranded wire, twist the ends. Tinning the ends with solder reduces risk of fraying and ensures good electrical transfer.
Wiring English 3. Wiring Cautions Improving Noise/Surge Resistance • The GP unit’s power supply cord should not be bundled with or kept close to main circuit lines (high voltage, high current), power lines, or input/ output lines, and their various systems should be kept separate. When power lines cannot be wired via a separate system, use shielded cables for input/output lines. • Make the power cord as short as possible, and be sure to twist the ends of the wires together (i.e.
USB Cable Clamp When using a USB device, attach a USB cable clamp to the USB interface to prevent the USB cable from being disconnected. WARNING RISK OF EXPLOSION IN HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS • Confirm that the USB cable has been fixed with the USB cable clamp before using the USB interface. • Remove power before attaching or detaching any connectors to or from the unit. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. 1.
USB Cable Clamp English 3 As shown, pass the tie through the clip hole. Next, turn the tie and pass it through the head so that the USB cable can pass through the center of the tie loop. The clip is now attached to the USB cable. Note: • • 4 Check the direction of the head beforehand. Make sure the USB cable is through the center of the tie loop and that the tie can pass through the head.
