SERIAL MODULE INSTALLATION
1
With Accessory 72A Se rial Module Catalog 5110 added
to 4000 Series, 7000 Series, and Series 300 Automatic
Transfer Switches (ATSs), real–time data can be accessed
through the serial interface. Refer to the installation
drawings provided and follow the steps below to install
the Serial Module.
De–energize the Normal and Emergency sources
before opening the enclosure. Place the engine
generator starting control in the OFF position.
Make sure the generator is not operating.
Mounting
The Serial Module mounts on a DIN rail directly under
theATScontroller. SeeFigure1andFigure2.
1. De–energize both Normal and Emergency sources that
feed the ATS. Then open the encl osure door and chec k
with a non–con tact AC voltage detec tor.
2. Mount the DIN rail (supp l ied in the kit) onto two studs
(on the door) below the controller.
3. Install the Serial Module onto the DIN rail by hooking
the top of the module on the top of the DIN rail and
rocking it down ward until it snaps in plac e. If you need
to remove the Serial Module, pull the release tab
underneath.
Connections
A short serial cable connects the Serial Communication
Module to the Controller. If a Power Manager is present,
a long serial cable connects the Serial Communication
Module to the Power Manager. Refer to the wiring
diagram provided. The wiring must be performed by an
experienced licensed electrician in accordance with the
National Electrical Code and all local codes.
1. Install the 10–inch serial cable (from the kit) between
the ATS controller receptacle (J7 on 4000 & 7000
Series, J4 on Se ries 300) a nd t he Se rial Module
receptacle J1.
2. If a P ower Manager is present, connect the 4–foot
serial cab l e between the Pow er Manager recep tac le J5
and the Serial Module receptacle J2.* See Figure 2.
* A 9–foot serial cable (629798–004) is required
for G7ATB, G7ACTB, G7ADTB.
3. Prepare and connect the specified communication
cable (Tabl e A) to the Serial Module J4 terminal plug
as listed in Tab l e B and show n in Figu r e 3.
4. Wh en daisy ch ain ing m ultiple ATSs, the ATS that is the
farthest distance from the controlling device must have
a t erminati on re sist or. The Seria l Module has a
bu il t– in terminatio n resistor that can be con nected by
mov ing two DIP switc hes to ON. See Figu re 4.
