1Overview
The CH Breaker Gateway is designed to allow CPC’s
family of site controllers to interface directly with CutlerHammer Pow-R-Command PRC100 breaker control panels (equipped with PRC100MOD System Controllers) to
activate and deactivate loads.
A Pow-R-Command™ breaker panel features remotely
controllable circuit breakers, each of which may be flipped
from OFF to ON and from ON to OFF by commanding the
PRC100MOD System Controller. The E2, Einstein, and
REFLECS site controllers communicate with the
PRC100MOD by use of the CH Breaker Gateway. The
Gateway has one MODBUS channel that interconnects up
to 4 PRC100MOD System Controllers and one RS485 I/O
channel that connects the Gateway to the CPC site controller.
A CH Breaker Gateway controls up to 48 inputs and 48
digital outputs, and to the CPC controller the board appears
identical to 8RO (relay output) boards and 16AI (input)
boards. The Gateway can emulate up to 3 16AI and 6 8RO
boards, depending on the amount of breaker groups used.

Figure 1-2 - Gateway Board
The CH Breaker Gateway (Figure 1-2) allows you to
drive multiple breakers from a single virtual I/O point by
arranging them into breaker groups. Each group repre-
sents one output point (driven by a lighting control or
schedule application in the CPC site controller) and one input point (which sends a combined proof signal back to the
CPC site controller for proof checking).
The Gateway supports control of up to 48 breaker
groups, made up of breakers from up to 4 PRC100 panels,
each of which may have up to 48 breakers.

Figure 2-1 - Gateway Board Mounting Dimensions
The Gateway should be mounted in an environment
with ambient temperature between -40°F and 150°F, with a
non-condensing relative humidity between 5% and 95%.
Gateway boards are not supplied with an enclosure but
come with a snap-track for easy installation. The insulation
sheet and I/O board must be removed from the track before
the track is mounted. The snap-track is mounted using the
0.1875” mounting slots. Figure 2-2 shows this installation
procedure.

Wiring
Input Voltage24VAC, Class 2, 50/60Hz

Table 3-1 - Gateway Power Requirements
The Gateway requires 24VAC power from a Class 2
center-tapped transformer.
CPC supplies several sizes of center-tapped transformers for powering multiple 16AIs, 8ROs, and other RS485
peripheral boards of the E2, Einstein, and REFLECS systems.
Refer to your controller’s user manual for information
on how to use the center-tapped transformers listed in Ta-ble 3-1 to power multiple RS485 I/O devices for the US and
Canada.

transformers to the Gateway power connector.

4.1.Connecting the CH Breaker
Gateway to the Breaker Panels
The Cutler-Hammer breaker panels connect to the
Gateway by MODBUS network connection. MODBUS is
a two-wire, polarity-sensitive network physically similar to
RS485. Using shielded, two-conductor 22AWG wire
(Belden #8761 or equivalent), connect all panels in a single
daisy-chain network configuration leading from the Gateway to each of the breaker panels in series.
Figure 4-1 shows how to connect the wires to the
MODBUS connectors.
IMPORTANT! The polarity of the PRC100MOD connectors is the opposite of the Gateway board’s connector.
The wire color connected to the positive (+) terminal of the
Gateway board should be wired to the negative (-) terminal
on the breaker panels, and vice-versa.
(Figure 4-2). PRC100MOD boards have no on-board termination and must be terminated with a 150-ohm resistor
across the + and - terminals (Figure 4-2).

The two devices at the ends of the MODBUS network
must be terminated. If the Gateway board is one of the end
devices, terminate the network using the three termination
jumpers located next to the Gateway MODBUS Connector
The PRC100MOD controllers on the Cutler-Hammer
breaker panels have a switch used to set the MODBUS address. This switch must be used to give each PRC100MOD
a unique address from 1 through 4. Figure 4-3 shows the
switch location and positions for each MODBUS address.

Using shielded two-conductor network cable (Belden

to the three-terminal connector on the Gateway board as
shown in Figure 4-5. For further information about how
RS485 networks are configured, refer to your site controller’s user manual.
1.Plug the HHT into the HHT jack.
2.From the opening screen, press the DOWN
ARROW key to display the Board Addresses
screen (Figure 4-6).
3.Press RIGHT ARROW to move the cursor to
the # of Brk Grps field. Enter the total number
of breaker groups you will be controlling.
When finished, press RIGHT ARROW to
move the cursor to the 16AI Start field.
4.The end ranges for the 16AI and 8RO boards
will adjust based on the number you entered
in step 3. For every 16 breaker groups, another 16AI board number will be added to the
End range up to a maximum of 3. For every 8
breaker groups, another 8RO board number
will be added to the End range, up to a maximum of 6.
5.Enter the 16AI board number that will be the

Press RIGHT ARROW. The End range value
will change to show the new Start-End range

Figure 4-5 - Connecting the Gateway to the RS485 Network
4.2.1.Gateway Board Numbering
The E2, Einstein, or REFLECS controller interprets the
Gateway board as one or more 16AI Analog Input boards
and one or more 8RO boards numbered in succession. Addressing the “boards” represented by the Gateway is
achieved using the HHT.
Dip switches 6 and 7 control the baud rate at which the
Gateway communicates with the site controller on the
RS485 Network. These switches must be set to the same
baud rate setting as the E2, Einstein, or REFLECS (usually
9600 baud).
There is no dip switch to set the MODBUS baud rate.
Since the PRC100MOD control board is fixed at 9600
baud, the Gateway board also uses a fixed 9600 baud rate
for MODBUS.

As part of a site controller’s RS485 I/O (COM A or
COM D) Network, a Gateway must be terminated if it is the
end device of a daisy chain. Refer to the controller’s user
manual for information about daisy chain networks and
how they are terminated.
To terminate the Gateway, set the I/O Network Jumpers
to the RIGHT position as shown in Figure 4-8. To unterminate the Gateway, set the jumpers to the LEFT position.
