CM-2201/CM-2202 Installation and Initial Setup
3.0

Installation

The CM-2201/CM-2202 must be installed only in areas for which it has been approved and in accordance with all applicable electrical codes and ordinances. All conduit entry holes must be appropriately installed and sealed to ingress protection rating. Do not install this unit prior to functional testing if shipping container or internal packaging shows signs of damage. Notify the appropriate individuals immediately if damage is suspected.
3.1

Selecting Installation Location

The CM-2201/CM-2202 should be installed in an area protected from the elements as much as possible. It is possible to install the unit in unprotected areas but such often limits maintenance/access. Further, installation in unprotected areas must be carefully considered to ensure it is always in operating conditions consistent with specifications. See Appendix A for additional details.
3.2

Mounting

The CM-2201/CM-2202 should be mounted at a convenient height to suit operator interaction. (See Appendix D for mounting details.) Conduit entries should be made in the bottom of the enclosure to from moisture and the use of suitable bushings is required to maintain the environmental ratings.
3.3

Wiring

Electrical wiring diagrams and schematics are provided in Appendix B and C of this manual. Ensure that all wiring and connections are in accordance with applicable wiring codes. Enclosure grounding must be in accordance with applicable wiring codes for non-metallic devices.
The power supply for the CM-2201 is derived from the power provided for the load. However, the power supply for the CM-2202 can be provided independent of the supply for the loads being controlled. For power supply for the CM-2202 can be 120 VAC while the loads being controlled can be 277 VAC. supply for the CM-2202 may also be the loads being controlled – this is connecting appropriate jumpers.

Initial Set-Up

Upon initial power-up, the CM-2201/CM-2202 display will run self-check, display the software version and then start the main program. Default settings are set to disable heating cables, (See 7.0 Pro gr ammin g to ena ble he ater s and program set points.)
4.1

Display Modes

This feature determines what messages and functions are displayed during normal operations. If set to “normal user,” only basic information is displayed. If set to “advanced user,” all controller information is displayed. Each parameter shown in this manual will list the Display Mode required to view information and access each function during programming.
4.2

Password Protection

The CM-2201/CM-2202 may have password protection enabled to ensure that sensitive operating parameters are not inadvertently adjusted. If password protection is enabled, the user will be prompted to enter a valid value to access any protected features. The user may also replace the default password value (1234) with their own unique value for greater protection of operational parameters.

Power-Limiting Feature
The Power-Limiting feature operates similarly to the Start in that it restricts the amount of time the cable is energized during any given period thereby reducing the average current draw of the cable during that period.
For example, if a cable normally draws 8 Amps, but current limit is set to 6 Amps, then the cable would be energized
only 75% of the time.
5.7

Ground Faults

Ground faults typically are the result of damaged or improperly installed cables which allow current-carrying conductors/ surfaces/pa rt s to b e in co nta ct wi th gr ou nd ed objects.
For example, if a heating cabl e has bee n secur ed to a pipe with a clamp, and if the clamp has bee n overtig hte ned, then the ground braid and/or the pipe may come in contact with current carrying parts within the cable. This would result in current leakage to ground through the ground braid of the cable and/or the pipe itself. This type of
fault can eventually become serious, resulting
overheating/fire/shoc k hazar ds. Current leakage to can be monitored by electronic circuitry and the SPC/DPC can
be programmed to either alarm or trip when leakage current exceeds the specified maximum allowable amount.

5.9 Soft-Start Feature

The Soft-Start feature enables self-regulating cables to
be ener gized at low temperatur es without causing excessive
load on the electrical system and extending cable life by
reducing cable internal heat ing due to inrush cu r rent s . The
resistance of self-regulating cables decreases as the
cables get colder, which results in higher current and can
result in brea ker trips if temp eratures are ve ry cold and
the instal led le ngt h of c ab le is long . The Soft-Start feature
operates by initially only energizing the cable for a very short
period of time – while the current draw may be high du ring
this period, the period is usually short enough to reduce
average load on the elect rical syste m . This short energizatio n p eriod is repeated and eventually increased; after a few minutes, the cable is usually warm enough such that the resistance has increased and the current decreased to the point where it c an be conti nuou s ly energized.

Control Modes CM-2201/CM-2202
6.0

Control Modes

The CM-2201/CM-2202 allows the user to select different control modes based on their individual process control parameters.
6.1

On-Off Control

This control method simply energizes the cable until the actual monitored temperature rises to the setpoint value plus half the deadband value (upper limit). The cable is then de-energized until the actual monitored temperature setpoint value minus half the deadband value. Note that this type of control can result in some temperature “overshoot;” this is because the cable is de-energized temperature reaches the upper limit. in the cable continues to transfer the pipe temperature to Similarly, there can
6.2

Proportional Control

This control method uses the typical proportional control algorithm wherein the cable is cycled on and off at a rate
proportional to the difference between the setpoint value and the actual monitored temperature. As the difference between the setpoint value and the actual monitored cable is reduce the assoc iated with

6.4 Forced Control Feature
This control me thod sim pl y allow s the user to for ce the cab le on or off as desired using an external signal (e.g. +5 VDC or 24 VAC) applied to the IN and G terminals or an external dry contact across the +5V and IN terminals. The External Disable must be set to “ON” to allow for external control, at which point the controller operates as follows:
A) If the Temperature setpoint is “OFF” or “None”, then the heater gets energized by applying the external signal or closing the external contact.
B) If the Temperature setpoint is a specific value (ex. 55C), then the setpoint will be maintained as per normal operation ONLY when the external signal is present, or the external contact is closed – otherwise, the heater will be disabled.

7.4.4 Ground Fault Test
This function will test the ground fault trip function of the controller to ensure proper operation. When selected, the controller will generate an artificial ground fault current; if sensed as being greater than 30 The GF test function will verify actual ground fault current and heater trip. Status of the test will be displayed as pass or fail. If this test has been invoked by the “Now” option and it passes, the user is prompted to the load is capable of being re-energized as required. If this test has been invoked by the “Autotest” option and it passes, the load is allowed to be reenergized as required. If this test has been invoked by the Autotest cycle and it fails, an Autotest alarm is generated but the load is allowed to be re-energized as required.

To check if any alarm is activated, send the following instruction:
2.
The controller will answer with value 0x02 (High Temperature Alarm) active Alarm
3.
Once the alarm condition has been resolved, the alarm can be cleared by sending the following instruction: “04 05 0045 FF00 9C4C”
At this point the controller enters the alarm into the alarm log memory and clears the active alarm. To check the alarm log memory, see below.

If the command to check if any alarm is activated (as shown in (1) above) is now sent to the controller, and assuming no other alarms have since been activated, the controller will answer with 0x0000 (no active alarms).
5.
To check the alarm log memory, issue the following instructions:
04 03 006E 0026 A598 04 = controller Modbus number 03 = Modbus function code 3 006E = start reading from data address
110 0026 = the next 38 addresses A598 = CRC
6.
The High Temperature Alarm will be listed here, so the controller will answer 0x02. The Alarm log can hold 20 alarms. After 20 alarms the oldest alarm will be erased to allow for storage of the new alarm. To erase all alarms on alarm log, see below.

To erase all alarms on the Alarm log from the remote terminal, send the following instruction:
