Pump Specic Installation
TS-DIM / G for Gilbarco Electronic Dispenser
Gilbarco MOC (Major Oil Company) G-SITE Systems are specially congured. For Gilbarco MOC instructions and
installation requirements, refer to the Gilbarco G-SITE installation section that follows this one.
Follow instructions in the TS-DIM General Installation section and perform general installation procedures and preliminary
testing procedures using the internal DIM Diagnostics (page 19). Then, follow the specic instructions for connecting the
TS-DIM system to the appropriate Gilbarco distribution box (DBox). See the Gilbarco DBoxes Table that follows for further
information.
Proceed with the TS-DIM’s installation and refer to the TS-DIM Adapter Board Jumper Selections Diagram in the
preceding section (TS-DIM for Electronic Dispensers General Installation) for further information.
1. Verify that the adapter board’s SW1 jumpers will be set for the specic Gilbarco models.
2. If the Gilbarco system uses a current loop style Universal DBox or a TS1000 DBox, set the adapter board’s SW2
jumpers for current loop. Plug the adapter harness into position J2. Disconnect the Gilbarco console / controller from
the distribution box and connect the Gilbarco style TS-DIM adapter cable (P / N 600-0201) to the Gilbarco DBox. Plug
the long end of the adapter cable into the TS-DIM DB9M connector on the end of the TS-DIM. See the TS-DIM to
Gilbarco DBox Universal / TS1000 Diagram later in this section.
If the Gilbarco system uses an RS422 style Universal DBox, set the adapter board’s SW2 jumpers for
RS422 / RS485. Plug the adapter harness into position J3. Disconnect the Gilbarco console / controller from the DBox
and connect the Gilbarco style TS-DIM adapter cable (P / N 600-0202) to the Gilbarco DBox. Plug the long end of
the adapter cable into the TS-DIM DB9P connector on the end of the TS-DIM. Refer to the TS-DIM to Gilbarco DBox
Universal / TS1000 Diagram later in this section.
If the Gilbarco system uses a PA01330000 DBox, set the adapter board’s SW2 jumpers for current loop. Plug the
adapter harness into position J2. Cut off the ‘T’ end of the TS-DIM adapter cable (P / N 600-0201). Locate an unused
position in the Gilbarco DBox, check that the switch is in the ‘Isolate’ position, then connect the cut end of the adapter
cable to the Gilbarco DBox at this position. At this point, move the switch to the ’Normal’ position. In the event that the
DBox positions are all in use, wire the TS-DIM adapter cable in series with an existing pump. Reference Diagram: TSDIM to Gilbarco DBox PA01330000.
If the Gilbarco system uses a PA03060020 DBox, set the adapter board’s SW2 jumpers for current loop. Using
connectors P / N 601-1003 and P / N 601-1004, plug them into the Monitor Cable Input then plug the adapter harness
into position J2. Disconnect the Gilbarco console / controller from the distribution box and connect the Gilbarco style
TS-DIM adapter cable (P / N 600-0201) to the Gilbarco DBox between the DB9 and RJ45 adapters. Plug the long end
of the adapter cable into the TS-DIM DB9P connector (position J2 on the adapter board). See the TS-DIM to Gilbarco
