PREFACE

This manual provides a detailed description of the main
technical data of the various versions of Gefran’s
GF_VEDO TL product.
The following information is indispensable for the cor­rect use of the GF_VEDO TL: proper wiring, correct
jumper settings and the correct connection to external
devices.
Keep in mind that most of the hardware options can be
configured via software by means of the setup data sto­red in the eeprom. As a result, there are just a few
options solely for hardware, which significantly simplifies
configuration of the GF_VEDO TL.

1 • PRELIMINARY INSTRUCTIONS

This section contains information and warnings of a general nature which should be read before procee­ding with controller installation, configuration and use.

General description

The GF_VEDO TL operator terminal line is a compact
and low-cost solution for machine control.
A single product integrates machine cycle control
[SoftPLC] and graphic page display [SCADA], allowing
quick and low-cost creation of many automation solu­tions.

The GF_VEDO TL terminals create the machine/opera­tor interface by means of LCD monitor, touch-screen,
and a wide variety of peripheral I/Os.
GF_VEDO TL terminals are applied mainly to machine
control for packaging, metals, wood and plastic applica­tions. This Installation Guide describes the main charac­teristics of the operator panels and refers to the follo­wing models:

GF_VEDO TL 65CT Operator interface with 6.5” LCD TFT color display
GF_VEDO TL 65CK Operator interface with 6.5” LCD TFT color display and integrated

47-key keyboard

GF_VEDO TL 104CT Operator interface with 10.4” LCD TFT color display

2 • INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

This section contains the instructions necessary
for correct installation of the GF_VEDO TL into
the machine control panel or the host system
and for correct connection of the controller
power supply, inputs, outputs and interfaces.

Before proceeding with installation read the
following warnings carefully!
Remember that lack of observation of these
warnings could lead to problems of electrical
safety and electromagnetic compatibility, as
well as invalidating the warranty..

Electrical power supply

• the GF_VEDO TL is NOT equipped with an On/Off
switch: the user must provide a two-phase
disconnecting switch that conforms to the required
safety standards (CE marking), to cut off the power
supply upstream of the terminal.
The switch must be located in the immediate vicinity of
the terminal and must be within easy reach of the
operator.
One switch may control more than one terminal

• if the terminal is connected to NOT isolated electrical
equipment (e.g. thermocouples), the earth connection
must be made with a specific conductor to prevent the
connection itself from coming directly through the
machine structure.

• if the GF_VEDO TL is used in applications with risk of

damage to persons, machinery or materials, it is
essential to connect it up to auxiliary alarm
equipment. It is advisable to make sure that alarm
signals are also triggered during normal operation.
The terminal must NOT be installed in flammable or
explosive environments; it may be connected to
equipment operating in such atmospheres only by
means of appropriate and adequate types of
interface, conforming to the applicable safety
standards.

Notes Concerning Electrical Safety and
Electromagnetic Compatibility:

CE MARKING: EMC Conformity (electromagnetic
compatibility)

in accordance with EEC Directive 2004/108/CE.
GF_VEDO TL series are mainly designed to operate in
industrial environments, installed on the switch boards
or control panels of productive process machines or
plants. As regards electromagnetic compatibility, the
strictest generic standards have been adopted, as indi­cated in the table below.

Instrument power supply

• The power supply to the electronic equipment on the
switchboards must always come directly from an
isolation device with a fuse for the instrument part.

• The electronic instruments and electromechanical
power devices such as relays, contactors, solenoid
valves, etc., must always be powered by separate
lines.

• When the electronic instrument power supply is
strongly disturbed by voltage problems from power
units or motors, an isolation transformer should be
used for the controllers only, earthing the screen.

• It is essential that the plant has a good earth
connection:

- the voltage between neutral and earth must not be >1V

- the resistance must be < 6Ω;

• If the mains voltage fluctuates strongly, use a voltage
stabilizer.

• In the proximity of high frequency generators or arc
welders, use adequate mains filters.

• The power supply lines must be separate from the
instrument input and output ones.

Inputs and outputs connection

• To connect the analogue inputs, strain gauge,
linear, (TC, RTD) the following is necessary:

- physically separate the input cables from those of the
power supply , the outputs and the power connections.

- use woven and screened cables, with the screen
earthed in one point only.

• To connect the control outputs, alarm(contactors,
solenoid valves, motors, fans, etc.), fit RC groups
(resistance and condensers in series) in parallel to
the inductive loads that operate in Alternating
Current.

(Note: all the condensers must conform to VDE
(class X2) standards and withstand a voltage of at
least 220V AC. The resistances must be at least 2W).

• Fit a 1N4007 diode in parallel with the coil of the
inductive loads that operate in Direct Current.

GEFRAN S.p.A. declines all responsibility for
any damage to persons or property caused
by tampering, neglect, improper use or any
use which does not conform to the characte­ristics of the controller and to the indica­tions given in these Instructions for Use.

3.6.1 Power supply port

Power supply: 24VDC ±25%. The internal power supply is galvanically isolated and protected against polarity rever­ses and short circuits by a resettable fuse. The panel has a power terminal. The connector diagram is shown in
Figure 13.

Note:
check that the power supply is able to deliver the power needed for correct operation of the device.

The device must always be grounded. Grounding helps limit the effects of electromagnetic noise on the control
system. All electronic devices of the control system must be grounded. Ground the devices in a manner conforming
to applicable standards and regulations.

3.6.2 Autostart Port

GF_VEDO TL uses the optional Autostart output to activate an external relay by means of a programmable internal
timer. Activation requires that only the relay be powered, and to run the external devices you have to use the free
contact of the relay (activation time approx. 10 seconds).
We recommend the use of 24VDC relays with a maximum of 100mA at the coil.

3.6.6 CAN port

The optional CAN port lets GF_VEDO TL dialog via the serial standard (ISO 11898-1 of 2003) for the CAN (Control­ler Area Network) field bus, also known as CAN-bus.
This protocol is specifically designed for excellent operation even in environments with strong electromagnetic
noise, and can use a balanced potential line such as an RS-485 as means of transmission.
In particular, GF_VEDO TL implements the CANOpen Layer 2 standard. The CAN port is optically isolated and
uses a 9-pin (male) D-sub connector.
Signal assignment is shown in Table 9.

3.7 Access to internal system resources

Before opening the system, ALWAYS switch off the GF_VEDO TL by disconnecting it from the outside power
supply. APhillips screwdriver is needed to access the internal system resources.

Fig. 23 - DOM mass memory in GF_VEDO TL

3.7.1 DOM mass memory

GF_VEDO TL has a mass memory containing the operating system, the application, and user information.
The GF_VEDO board has a 44-pin 2 mm pitch connector that can be used to connect the board to a solid state disk
with IDE AT-compatible interface such as Disk On Module (DOM).

3.7.2 System memory: SODIMM

GF_VEDO TL has a SODIMM (Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module) system memory, which is more compact
than normal DIMM.

Fig. 25 - Replacing the battery in the GF_VEDO TL

Replace only with the same model battery or with an equivalent compatible with the same operating temperature.

3.7.3 Internal battery

GF_VEDO TL panels use an internal lithium battery (not rechargeable, replaceable).
This makes it possible to keep the data in the static RAM memory when the GF_VEDO TL is off (for a maximum
period of 3 years).

When necessary, replace the battery as follows:

• get a replacement battery (button-type, 24 mm diameter, 3V lithium (CR2430))

• switch off the system by disconnecting it from the outside power supply.

• remove the battery

• dispose of the old lithium battery in compliance with regulations

• insert the new battery as shown in Figure 25

• switch on the system.

Note:
if the battery is replaced quickly(in less than 15 minutes) there is no loss of data maintained by the backup battery.
