1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
Vcolor is a range of programmable remote user interfaces.
Through the interfaces it is possible to manage the
programmable controllers belonging to the c-pro 3 range also
at a distance, in particular the blind versions.
The user interface consists of a color touch-screen TFT graphic
display, it can be developed through the UNI-PRO 3
development environment and guarantees an IP40 protection
rating (IP65 in case of panel mounting with gasket
0027000007, to order separately), for easy cleaning.
They can work both as browser of programmable controllers
(browsers) and in commander mode, getting the controllers
(slaves) to serve the commands coming from the interface.
The interfaces can easily be integrated both in residentia l and
in commercial environments; at their front it is possible to
apply the frontal plates CPVP EVCO (to order separately) or
the plates belonging to the series "Living" and to the series
"Light" BTicino.
Installation is by panel, built-in (in box like “506e” BTicino) or
by wall (in wall mounting support CPVW00 EVCO, to order
separately).

2.5 Additional information for installation
- make sure the working conditions of the device (operating temperature, operating humidity, etc.) are in the limits
indicated; look at chapter 10 “TECHNICAL DATA”.
- do not install the device close to heating sources (heaters, hot air ducts, etc.), devices having big magnetos (big speakers,
etc.), locations subject to direct sunlight, rain, humidity, dust, mechanical vibrations or bumps
- according to the safety legislation, the protection against possible contacts with the electrical parts must be ensured by a
correct installation of the device; all the parts which ensure the protection must be fixed so that you can not remove them
if not by using a tool.

3 WIRING DIAGRAM
3.1 Connectors
The following drawing shows the connectors of the devices.
3.2 Meaning of connectors
The following tables show the meaning of the connectors of the devices.
CANBUS CAN port
CAN port with CANBUS communication protocol.
Terminal Meaning
1 ground (gnd)
2 negative pole (-)
3 positive pole (+)
The CANBUS CAN port is the port to communicate with the programmable controllers and the I/O expansions belonging to the c-pro 3
range.
Power supply
Power supply device (24 VAC/DC not isolated).
If the device is powered in direct current, it will be necessary to respect the polarity of the power supply voltage.
Terminal Meaning
4 negative pole (-)
5 positive pole (+)
MODBUS RS-485 port
RS-485 port with MODBUS communication protocol.
If the device works in browser modality, the communication protocol will be slave; if the device works in commander modality, the
communication protocol can be MODBUS master or MODBUS slave (this feature can be selected through the development environment
UNI-PRO 3).
Also consult the manual Modbus specifications and implementation guides available on the web site www.modbus.org.
Terminal Meaning
6 negative pole (B / -)
7 positive pole (A / +)

Through the MODBUS RS-485 port it is possible to make one of the following operations:
- configuring the device (through the Parameters Manager software set-up system)
- supervisioning the device (through the CloudEvolution plant monitoring and supervision system, via Web
- use of the MODBUS master functionality with other devices.
USB port
Through the USB port it is possible to make one of the following operations:
- upload and download the application software (through the development environment UNI-PRO 3 or through a USB flash
drive)
- debugging the software (through the development environment UNI-PRO 3 and on condition the device works in
commander modality)
- configuring the device (through the Parameters Manager software set-up system or through a USB flash drive)
- moving files (the development environment UNI-PRO 3)
- data logging (through a USB flash drive and on condition the device works in commander modality).
3.3 Plugging-in the line termination of the RS-485 network with MODBUS
communication protocol
To reduce the reflections on the signal transmitted along the cables connecting the devices to a RS-485 network with MODBUS
communication protocol it is necessary to plug-in the line termination of the first and of the last element of the network.
To plug-in the line termination, position micro switch 1 on position ON.
The micro switch is located at the back of the devices.

3.4 Plugging-in the line termination of the CAN network with CANBUS
communication protocol
To reduce the reflections on the signal transmitted along the cables connecting the devices to a CAN network with CANBUS
communication protocol it is necessary to plug-in the line termination of the first and of the last element of the network.
To plug-in the line termination, position micro switch 2 on position ON.
The micro switch is located at the back of the devices.
3.5 Polarizing the RS-485 network with MODBUS communication protocol
The devices are not able to polarize a RS-485 network with MOSBUS communication protocol; it is necessary the network is polarized
by another element.
