1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Liebert Universal Monitor’s extensive capabilities can put it at the heart of your protective net­work. The Universal Monitor employs local alarming and remote paging services to keep personnel on-site and at remote locations apprised of the status of equipment.
The panel can interface with any device that closes an electrical contact or has a 4-20 mA signal. To improve process efficiency and troubleshooting, the panel tracks data in three types of logs: alarm, event and trend. The Universal Monitor has a local LCD interface and a remote dial-up interface.
Further, the Universal Monitor can report ambient conditions that might adversely affect the facility or equipment and also can report alarms and other events, as well as initiate responses to reduce or prevent damage.
When an alarm condition arises, the Universal Monitor displays alarm information and sounds an audible alarm; if configured, the panel also sends pager notifications and turns connected devices on or off. See 1.11 - Typical Sequence for a more detailed example.

1.1 Methods of Viewing and Configuring the Universal Monitor

The Universal Monitor features remote access through two interfaces that allow users to configure the panel, silence alarms, back up logs, and perform many other functions to keep a large or small operation running smoothly and safely.
LCD—liquid crystal display on the front of the panel
Service Terminal Interface—accessible via computer connected directly through an RS232 port or remotely through the Universal Monitor’s onboard modem
These interfaces permit easy access and configuration of the Universal Monitor, allowing users to view data, silence alarms and have full access to information stored in the panel, including logs of alarms and events.
One more interface—Liebert’s SiteScan Web enterprise monitoring system—is primarily for monitor­ing, though SiteScan also provides some configuration functions.
Introduction

1.2 Data Logs

The three types of data logs—alarm history, event history and trend data of analog sensor readings— can be viewed on the LCD on the front of the Universal Monitor and downloaded through onboard communications ports.

1.3 Optional Features

An optional Expansion Board, which can be purchased separately, allows you to connect an additional 16 digital inputs and eight digital outputs to the Universal Monitor.
An optional Transformer Module, available only in the large enclosure, converts 115VAC or 230VAC to 24VAC.

1.4 Available Alarms

The alarms available with the Universal Monitor are:
• Discrete input alarm (for each digital input)
•High setpoint
• Low setpoint
• Battery unplugged
• Low battery
• Loss of power
• Check battery
• Internal modem fault
Two additional alarms are available with the optional Expansion Board:
• Expansion board loss of communications
• Expansion board restore of communications

The enclosure for the Universal Monitor’s controller board comes in two sizes:
•The large enclosure is designed to accommodate the Transformer Module and future compo- nents, in addition to the controller board.
•The small enclosure is built to hold the controller board only.
Both enclosures are 2-3/4" deep.
Both enclosures have a built-in liquid crystal display (LCD) and a key lock, as shown in the example below. The enclosures are made of metal to accommodate secure conduit fittings and protect compo­nents against environmental debris.

2.0 INSTALLATION - MAIN BOARD

This section provides instructions for installing, mounting and connecting power to the Universal Monitor. For information on the optional Expansion Board, see 3.0 - Installation - Optional Expan- sion Board.

2.1 Installation Considerations

The Universal Monitor must be installed indoors and may be mounted on the surface of a wall or flush-mounted, depending on the user’s application, the location of equipment and sensors to be mon­itored and the type of wall the unit will be mounted on.
The Universal Monitor should be mounted where it can be easily accessed. On-site personnel would access the unit through the LCD on its front cover, service terminal connected to the RS232 port or through SiteScan. For off-site monitoring, the Universal Monitor should be placed near communica­tions means such as a telephone line connection that would permit remote access.
In addition to the communications connections, the site also must have electrical service and must permit connecting the unit’s eight digital inputs, eight digital outputs and four analog inputs.
The wall material must be capable of supporting the weight of the Universal Monitor: see 10.0 -
Specifications.
NOTE
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Installation - Main Board

2.1.1 Unpacking and Preliminary Inspection

• Before unpacking the Universal Monitor, inspect the shipping carton for damage or signs of mishandling, such as gashes or holes in the carton or severely flattened corners.
• Open the shipping crates carefully. Use care to avoid puncturing the container with sharp objects that might damage the contents.
• Inspect the Universal Monitor and all included components for damage.
• If any damage from shipping or mishandling is observed, immediately file a damage claim with the shipping agency and forward a copy to:
Liebert Corporation 1050 Dearborn Drive P.O. Box 29186 Columbus, OH 43229

2.2 Surface-Mounting the Universal Monitor

NOTE
Removing the conduit knockouts before mounting the Universal Monitor on the wall will ease installation and prevent strain on the mounting hardware and wall. It is imperative to remove the knockouts if the unit is to be flush-mounted.
After determining where to place the unit, check to ensure that you have all the hardware required to install the panel on the surface of a wall. Obtain the needed tools and material.

Required tools

• Electric drill (if surface is too hard to drive screws without pilot holes)
• Screwdriver
• Marker to denote layout of holes
• Four screws, each #10

2.2.1 Mounting the Panel

CAUTION
!
Check building plans and other relevant documents to determine whether mounting the Universal Monitor at the selected location might cause cutting or otherwise damaging electrical or communication wiring or pipes.
1. Mark the wall for mounting holes, using the back of the unit as a template (see Figure 5).
2. Drill holes, if required, to install the four #10 screws that will secure the Universal Monitor to the wall. Clean up the debris.
3. If the wall material is not strong enough to hold the screws securely, use wall anchors.
4. Install the top two screws—the screw heads must be small enough to slip through the larger, bottom portion of the pear-shaped mounting slot in the Universal Monitor (see inset in Figure 5). The screws must also be large enough to extend over the edges of the top of the mounting slot.
5. Hang the Universal Monitor on the screws, letting the panel slip down until the screws are in the smaller, upper portion of the slot.
6. Tighten the screws until they are snug.
7. Insert the remaining two screws in the bottom holes on the back of the panel and tighten.

2.3 Flush-Mounting the Universal Monitor

NOTE
Removing the conduit knockouts before mounting the Universal Monitor on the wall will ease installation and prevent strain on the mounting hardware and wall. It is imperative to remove the knockouts if the unit is to be flush-mounted.
The rectangular access doors on the top and bottom of the Universal Monitor must be reversed so they slide the opposite direction. Leaving the doors as shipped from the factory prevents them from being opened when the panel is flush mounted in a wall.
The Universal Monitor may be flush-mounted according to company practices—either with screws through the sides of the panel into wall supports or with hanging hardware that attaches to the back of the panel. After determining how and where to place the unit, check to ensure that you have all the hardware required to install the panel in the wall. Obtain the needed tools.

Required tools

•Saw
• Electric drill
• Screwdriver
• Marker to denote layout of the hole to accommodate the Universal Monitor
• Trim ring and associated hardware
• Mounting hardware
Installation - Main Board

2.3.1 Mounting the Panel

CAUTION
!
Check building plans and other relevant documents to determine whether mounting the Universal Monitor at the selected location might cause cutting or otherwise damaging electrical or communication wiring or pipes.
1. Mark the wall for the cutout to accommodate the panel, using the back of the unit as a template.
2. Drill a pilot hole for the saw blade, if required.
3. Use the saw to cut out the marked section of the wall (if not new construction).
4. Rest the Universal Monitor in the wall and mark where mounting screws will be inserted into the wall studs or other support member.
5. Remove the panel and drill the holes for the mounting screws or wall anchors. Clean up the debris.
6. Reverse the slide direction of the rectangular access doors on the top and bottom of the Universal Monitor. Leaving the doors as shipped from the factory prevents them from being opened when the panel is flush mounted in a wall.
7. Attach any field-supplied mounting hardware.
8. Reinsert the assembly into the wall.
9. Insert and tighten the screws or wall anchors.
12

2.4 Connect Power to the Universal Monitor

The Universal Monitor requires 24VAC for proper operation. Liebert recommends using the optional Transformer Module manufactured by Liebert or another UL-approved Class 2 power unit to obtain proper voltage. If the power unit is not a Class 2 circuit, it must be protected with an IEC 5 x 20mm time lag 2A fuse. For information, consult your local dealer, Liebert representative or the Liebert Worldwide Support Group.
WARNING
!
Check that power is removed from wires prior to installation.
CAUTION

4.3.2 Connecting the Analog Ground

The Universal Monitor features an analog ground connection for four-wire sensors that have an external power source. Such a four-wire sensor requires a reference to ground because they get power from an external power source.
A two-wire transducer, which does not have an external power source, does not need to be con­nected to the analog ground.
The analog ground connector has two terminals, each of which can accommodate two wires. This is adequate to connect four sensors that require a reference to ground because they get power from an external power source.
Connect the analog ground to an external four­wire sensor as shown in the illustration at right.

CAUTION
!
The Expansion Board is designed for use on properly grounded (earthed) 24VAC Class 2 power, 50Hz or 60Hz. The ground wire for the power lead must be wired to the earth ground terminal (stud located next to the 24VAC terminal block). This equipment is intended to be installed by a qualified and certified electrician who must review and approve customer­supplied wiring and circuit breakers, verify correct input and grounded (earthed) connections to ensure compliance with technical standards and national and local electrical codes.
Segregate and install separate electrical conduits for non-class 2 circuits in accordance with local building codes.
Each output may be wired according to whether you want the output to be Normally Open or Nor­mally Closed. The Expansion Board outputs are Form C relay contacts, each with three terminals. There are two ways to wire the outputs, as shown in Figure 11.
• One wire of the two-wire connection should always be connected to the middle terminal.
• The second wire may be connected to either the N.C. terminal or the N.O. terminal, depending on how whether you want the contact to be closed or open during a power failure:
• Connect to the N.C. terminal if you want the path to be CLOSED during a power failure, or
• Connect to the N.O. terminal if you want the path to be OPEN during a power failure.
Your choice for wiring the output contacts also determines how to set the fail-safe DIP switches for proper operation (see 5.2.3 - Setting the Digital Output DIP Switches).

5.2.3 Setting the Digital Output DIP Switches

Each digital output on the optional Expansion Board has an associated DIP switch that can deter­mine its operation in the event of loss of communication with the Universal Monitor or loss of power.
When the Universal Monitor calls for an Expansion Board output to be ON, it sends a command to the Expansion Board to turn the output to the ON state; this is signified by the output LED being ON. The behavior of the output when it is ON is determined by the position of the DIP switch.
The DIP switches for the outputs are on a switch bank on the right side of the Expansion Board, as shown below. Each switch corresponds to an output on the board in order from left to right—for exam­ple, DIP switch 1 corresponds to Output 9; DIP switch 2 corresponds to Output 10.

Tables 10 and 11 show how to set the DIP switch for each output based on how the output is wired (see 5.2.2 - Connecting Digital Outputs) and how you want it to perform during normal operation, when communication with the Universal Monitor is lost or when power fails.
NOTE
After a loss of communications with the Universal Monitor, there is a time delay—about five minutes—before the Expansion Board changes the state of an output.

The Expansion Board comes from the factory with all digital output DIP switches in the OFF position (normally open). The DIP switch setting for each digital output can be changed to ON (normally closed).
To change the state of any output to the factory default of NO (Normally Open) or to NC (Normally Closed), move each switch to the appropriate position:
• Move the switch down to the OFF position for NO (Normally Open)—the default setting.
• Move the switch up to the ON position for NC (Normally Closed).

9.3.4 Set Up Alarmable Inputs in Latched or Unlatched Mode

Alarmable input points may be set up in Latched mode (Y), which requires the user to clear the Universal Monitor alarms after an alarm has occurred, or Unlatched mode (N), in which alarms will automati­cally clear after a return-to-normal state. The default setting for alarmable inputs is N (Unlatched). Any input defined as an event is automatically Unlatched.
A digital input defined as Latched does not reset automatically after an alarm. It will remain in the triggered position even after the moni- tored device returns to normal. After an alarm, the user must manu­ally reset Latched inputs, as described in 9.12.1 - Clear Active Alarms. This also means that any digital outputs linked to a Latched digital input will remain triggered until the input is manually reset.
A digital input defined as Unlatched will automatically track the sta­tus of the monitored device. No action by the user is required.
• From the Setup Input Menu, choose Latched, as shown above
right, and press Enter ↵ .
• To change this feature, use the arrows
Latched) or N (No - Unlatched), then press Enter ↵ .

The only way to reset latched alarms is by clearing active alarms. This step is required to return latched points to their normal state. For details, see 9.12.1 - Clear Active Alarms.

9.3.5 Set Up Delay Time

Each input may be set up with a specified time delay between the occurrence of an alarm or event—a monitored device changes state— and any response by the Universal Monitor. This feature can prevent needless responses to transient conditions.
This delay is the amount of time that must elapse before the Universal Monitor acknowledges the change of state in the monitored device and takes any further action, such as dialing configured pagers. The default time delay is 1 second (displayed as 00 MIN : 01 SEC).
The time delay applies only when a monitored device changes from its normal state—for example, the Universal Monitor detects a closed contact that is defined as Normally Open.
When the monitored device returns to its normal state, the Universal Monitor acknowledges the change of state immediately.
• From the Setup Input Menu, choose Delay, as shown at right, and
press Enter ↵ .
• To change the time delay in minutes and seconds (in the range of 00:00 to 99:59):
• For minutes (MIN), press and hold one of the arrow keys 00-99.
• Press Enter ↵ to advance to seconds (SEC).
• For seconds (SEC), press and hold one of the arrow keys

9.4 Setup System - Setup Common Alarm

The audible alarm sounds after the Universal Monitor detects an alarm condition in any input that has been defined as alarmable, including digital and analog sensor inputs. Once the alarm is silenced, there are two options:
• By default, the common alarm remains energized until the input alarm is cleared.
• You may change this setting to de-energize the common alarm automatically once the alarm is silenced.
You might want to reset the common alarm with silence if an external alarm—for example, a horn—is connected to the common alarm output contacts.
You might not want to reset the common alarm contacts (let contacts reflect/track alarms) and simply silence the audible horn.

corresponding values for 4 and 20 mA, as well as high and low set­points. Other features that may be altered include the name of the sensor, the abbreviation for the units, and defining the sensor as alarmable or as an event.
• Alarmable sensors may be Latched (Y) or Unlatched (N).
• Event status allows you to monitor a sensor’s high and low setpoints—and use those setpoints to change the status of an output, if desired—without triggering an alarm. Events are always Unlatched.
• You may also specify a time delay before the Universal Monitor responds to an alarm or event.

9.5.7 Define Sensor as Alarmable or Event

Each sensor may be defined as Alarmable (AL) or as an Event (EV).
• For a sensor defined as alarmable, the following alarm reactions occur when the high-setpoint threshold is crossed: the LCD flashes, the audible horn sounds, configured pager numbers will be notified and a record is entered in the Alarm Log.
• For a sensor defined as an event, the high-setpoint occurrence is recorded in the Event Log.
By default, all sensors are set up as AL (Alarmable).
• From the Setup Sensor Menu, choose Alarm/Event, as shown at right, and press Enter ↵ .
• To change the type of sensor, use the arrows
↑↓ to choose

9.5.8 Set Up Alarmable Sensors in Latched or Unlatched Mode

Alarmable sensor points may be set up in Latched mode (Y), requiring the user to clear the Universal Monitor alarms after an alarm has occurred, or Unlatched mode (N), meaning that alarms will automati­cally clear after a return-to-normal state. The default setting for alarmable sensors is N (Unlatched). Any sensor defined as an event is automatically Unlatched.
A sensor defined as Latched does not reset automatically after an alarm. It will remain in the triggered position even after the monitored sensor returns to normal. After an alarm, the user must manually reset Latched sensors, as described in 9.12.1 - Clear Active Alarms. This also means that any digital outputs linked to a Latched sensor will remain triggered until the sensor is manually reset.
A sensor defined as Unlatched will automatically track the status of the monitored sensor. No action by the user is required.
• From the Setup Sensor Menu, choose Latched, as shown at right, and press Enter ↵ .
• To change this feature, use the arrows Latched) or N (No - Unlatched), then press Enter ↵ .

9.5.9 Change Low Setpoint

The Low Setpoint value is typically above the 4 mA value for the sen­sor. For example, if the 4 mA value is 50°F, the Low Setpoint might be 60°F. When the sensor crosses below this value, an alarm or event will occur, depending on the sensor configuration.
The default Low Setpoint for each sensor is -950.0. Values that can be entered range from:
• the 4 mA value + the Offset value (in the example, 50+5=55)
to
• the 20 mA value + the Offset value (in the example, 90+ 5 =95)
To determine these values, see 9.5.4 - Change 4 mA Value, 9.5.5 - Change 20 mA Value and 9.5.6 - Change Offset Value.

9.5.11 Set Up Delay Time

Each sensor may be set up with a specified time delay between the triggering of a high or low setpoint—a monitored sensor crosses the high or low setpoint threshold—and any response by the Universal Monitor. This feature can prevent transient conditions from prompting unnecessary responses.
This delay is the amount of time that must elapse before the Universal Monitor acknowledges the change in the monitored sensor and takes any further action, such as dialing configured pagers. The default time delay is 1 second (displayed as 00 MIN : 01 SEC).
The time delay applies to the triggering of a high or low setpoint and also after the monitored sensor returns to its normal state. When the monitored device returns to its normal state, the specified time delay must elapse before the Universal Monitor acknowledges the return-to­normal condition.
• From the Setup Sensor Menu, choose Sensor Delay, as shown at
right, and press Enter ↵ .

9.7.3 Set Expansion Board Output by DIP Switch

If you choose Change State from the Setup Output Menu for an Expansion Board output (OUTPUT09-16), the screen displays a mes­sage that the state must be set by DIP switch, as shown at right.
Each digital output on the optional Expansion Board has an associated DIP switch that can determine its operation in the event of loss of com­munication with the Universal Monitor or loss of power.
To configure a digital output jumper for a loss of power:
• Move the switch down to the “OFF” position (factory default) for Normally Open (NO).
• Move the switch up to the “ON” position for Normally Closed (NC).
For more information, see 5.2.3 - Setting the Digital Output DIP Switches.

9.7.4 Configure Main Board Output for Loss of Power (“Fail-Safe”)

Each digital output has an associated jumper that can help prevent undesired effects when the con­troller board loses power. For example, without the proper fail-safe jumper setting, a loss of power might close a switch that is Normally Open (NO)—perhaps shutting off a fan or closing a valve.
This fail-safe jumper setting is unrelated to configuring an output as Normally Open (NO) or Nor­mally Closed (NC), as described in the previous section, Define Main Board Output as Normally Open / Closed.

9.9.10 Initiate Remote Alarm Test (Service Terminal Interface only)
The service phone number is used for remote monitoring by Liebert Global Services. The Service Ter­minal Interface may be used to test communications between the Universal Monitor and the service modem. This test will send a “DIAL OUT TEST PASSED” message to the service phone number.
The test is used to simulate an alarm to verify the proper configuration and functioning of the modem and other communications required for receiving alarms. This simulated alarm bypasses the normal alarm sequence—the LCD will not flash, the horn will not sound and there will be no record in the Alarm Log. A message is sent to the service phone number only if the alarm system is set up correctly.
To initiate the remote alarm test:
• Connect to the Universal Monitor either from a remote computer or through the RS232 port (see A.2 - Connecting to the Service Terminal Interface).
• At the Main Menu, enter 0 (zero—Setup System-Login Required).
• At the Login Menu, enter your password.

NOTE
Also verify that a message was received at the Service Phone Number.
If the test is NOT successful, check the following:
• Modem configuration (see 9.8.1 - Modem Setup - Initialization String)
• Pager configuration (see 9.8.3 - Pager Setup - Pager Number and PIN)
