Overall blackout time then equals to 20 ms + breaker reaction time. HINT:

Use longer delay time to avoid problems with motor starters. (Motor starts prefer to see break of a few seconds so they can initialize properly).

HINT: To avoid issues with contactor mechanical interlocks use delay 0.75s or longer (mech. interlock on contactors takes some time to clear). If you try to close one contactor before interlock has cleared it can jam and you end up with out supply to load).

How to install RS 232 communication module: NOTE:

The following procedure is analogic also for other communication modules.

1. Insert a screwdriver into the slot of the cover.

2. Move the screwdriver to set apart the small cover. Be careful!

3. Remove the small cover.

4. Break apart the small cover into two pieces. Do not throw away the smaller part!

When you insert RS 232 communication module, the boot jumper is hidden. For that reason we recommend to use RS 232 communication module with the boot jumper placed on it. See pictures below:

To insert the module, please follow the instructions for IL-NT RS232 module, procedure is analogous. You must open the cover first (use screwdriver to open) and then insert the module into slot. Once you have inserted it, part of the module will remain over plastic box. It is supposed to be used as a service tool. When you need to remove it, grab module in cutouts and pull it up manually.

NOTE:

Use the shielded USB A-B cable with this module! Recommended is ComAp cable – Order code: “USB-LINK CABLE 1.8M”.
