: 7.5 W 8.5 W
Notes:
1. Typical power with +24 VDC, RS232/485 communications, Ethernet
communications, CompactFlash card installed, and display at full brightness.
2. Maximum power indicates the most power that can be drawn from the
G306. Refer to “Power Supply Requirements” under “Installing and
Powering the G306.”
3. The G306’s circuit common is not connected to the enclosure of the
unit. See “Connecting to Earth Ground” in the section “Installing and
Powering the G306.”
4. Read “Power Supply Requirements” in the section “Installing and
Powering the G306” for additional power supply information.
2. BATTERY: Lithium coin cell. Typical lifetime of 10 years.

4. 5-KEY KEYPAD: for on-screen menus.
5. TOUCHSCREEN: Resistive analog
6. MEMORY:
On Board User Memory: 4 Mbyte of non-volatile Flash memory.
Memory Card: CompactFlash Type II slot for Type I and Type II
CompactFlash cards.
7. COMMUNICATIONS:
USB Port: Adheres to USB specification 1.1. Device only using Type B
connection.
Serial Ports: Format and Baud Rates for each port are individually software
programmable up to 115,200 baud.
PGM Port: RS232 port via RJ12.
COMMS Ports: RS422/485 port via RJ45, and RS232 port via RJ12. These
two ports share the same hardware; the G303 multiplexes the ports to
communicate via two protocols. These ports may be used to configure
different master protocols, but only one port may be used if configuring
a slave protocol or AB DH485.
DH485 TXEN: Transmit enable; open collector, V

Note: For additional information on the communications or signal
common and connections to earth ground please see the “Connecting to
Earth Ground” in the section “Installing and Powering the G306.”
Ethernet Port: 10 BASE-T / 100 BASE-TX
RJ45 jack is wired as a NIC (Network Interface Card).
Isolation from Ethernet network to G3 operator interface: 1500 Vrms
8. ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS:

Operating and Storage Humidity: 80% maximum relative humidity (non-
condensing) from 0 to 50 °C.
Vibration according to IEC 68-2-6: Operational 5 to 500 Hz, in X, Y, Z
direction for 1.5 hours, 3 g.
Shock according to IEC 68-2-27: Operational 35 g, 9 msec in 3 directions.
