GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CUB5 provides the user the ultimate in flexibility, from its complete user
programming to the optional setpoint control and communication capability.
The CUB5TC accepts a thermocouple input and provides a temperature display
in Celcius or Farenheit. The meter also features minimum and maximum
display capture, display offset, °F or °C indicator, and programmable user input.
The display can be toggled either manually or automatically between the
selected displays.
The CUB5 display has 0.48" (12.2 mm) high digits. The LCD is available in
two versions, reflective and red/green backlight. The backlight version is user
selectable for the desired color and also has variable display intensity.
The capability of the CUB5 can be easily expanded with the addition of
option cards. Setpoint capability is field installable with the addition of the
setpoint output cards. Serial communications capability for RS232 or RS485 is
added with a serial option card.
The CUB5 can be powered from an optional Red Lion Micro-Line/Sensor
Power Supply (MLPS), which attaches directly to the back of a CUB5. The
MLPS is powered from 85 to 250 VAC and provides up to 400 mA to drive the
unit and sensors.

INSTALLATION
The meter meets NEMA 4X/IP65 requirements when properly installed. The
unit is intended to be mounted into an enclosed panel. Prepare the panel cutout
to the dimensions shown. Remove the panel latch from the unit. Slide the panel
gasket over the rear of the unit to the back of the bezel.
The unit should be installed fully assembled. Insert
the unit into the panel cutout.
While holding the unit in place, push the panel
latch over the rear of the unit so that the tabs of the
panel latch engage in the slots on the case. The
panel latch should be engaged in the
farthest forward slot possible. To achieve a proper seal, tighten the latch screws
evenly until the unit is snug in the panel (Torque to approx. 28 to 36 in-oz [0.202
to 0.26 N-m]). Do not over-tighten the screws.
INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT
The unit should be installed in a location that does not exceed the operating
temperature and provides good air circulation. Placing the unit near devices that
generate excessive heat should be avoided.
The bezel should only be cleaned with a soft cloth and neutral soap product.
Do NOT use solvents. Continuous exposure to direct sunlight may accelerate the
aging process of the bezel.
Do not use tools of any kind (screwdrivers, pens, pencils, etc.) to operate the
keypad of the unit.

WIRING OVERVIEW
Electrical connections are made via screw-clamp terminals located on the
back of the meter. All conductors should conform to the meter’s voltage and
current ratings. All cabling should conform to appropriate standards of good
installation, local codes and regulations. It is recommended that the power
supplied to the meter (DC or AC) be protected by a fuse or circuit breaker.
Strip the wire, leaving approximately 0.3" (7.5 mm) bare lead exposed
(stranded wires should be tinned with solder.) Insert the lead under the correct
screw-clamp terminal and tighten until the wire is secure. (Pull wire to verify
tightness.) Each terminal can accept up to one #14 AWG (2.55 mm) wire, two
#18 AWG (1.02 mm), or four #20 AWG (0.61 mm).
EMC INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Although Red Lion Controls Products are designed with a high degree of
immunity to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), proper installation and wiring
methods must be followed to ensure compatibility in each application. The type
of the electrical noise, source or coupling method into a unit may be different
for various installations. Cable length, routing, and shield termination are very
important and can mean the difference between a successful or troublesome
installation. Listed are some EMI guidelines for a successful installation in an
industrial environment.
1. A unit should be mounted in a metal enclosure, which is properly connected
to protective earth.
2. Use shielded cables for all Signal and Control inputs. The shield connection
should be made as short as possible. The connection point for the shield
depends somewhat upon the application. Listed below are the recommended
methods of connecting the shield, in order of their effectiveness.
a. Connect the shield to earth ground (protective earth) at one end where the
unit is mounted.
b. Connect the shield to earth ground at both ends of the cable, usually when
the noise source frequency is over 1 MHz.
3. Never run Signal or Control cables in the same conduit or raceway with AC
power lines, conductors, feeding motors, solenoids, SCR controls, and
heaters, etc. The cables should be run through metal conduit that is properly
grounded. This is especially useful in applications where cable runs are long
and portable two-way radios are used in close proximity or if the installation
is near a commercial radio transmitter. Also, Signal or Control cables within
an enclosure should be routed as far away as possible from contactors,
control relays, transformers, and other noisy components.
4. Long cable runs are more susceptible to EMI pickup than short cable runs.
5. In extremely high EMI environments, the use of external EMI suppression
devices such as Ferrite Suppression Cores for signal and control cables is
effective. The following EMI suppression devices (or equivalent) are
recommended:
Fair-Rite part number 0443167251 (RLC part number FCOR0000)
Line Filters for input power cables:
Schaffner # FN2010-1/07 (RLC part number LFIL0000)
6. To protect relay contacts that control inductive loads and to minimize radiated
and conducted noise (EMI), some type of contact protection network is
normally installed across the load, the contacts or both. The most effective
location is across the load.
a. Using a snubber, which is a resistor-capacitor (RC) network or metal oxide
varistor (MOV) across an AC inductive load is very effective at reducing
EMI and increasing relay contact life.
b. If a DC inductive load (such as a DC relay coil) is controlled by a transistor
switch, care must be taken not to exceed the breakdown voltage of the
transistor when the load is switched. One of the most effective ways is to
place a diode across the inductive load. Most RLC products with solid
state outputs have internal zener diode protection. However external diode
protection at the load is always a good design practice to limit EMI.
Although the use of a snubber or varistor could be used.
RLC part numbers: Snubber: SNUB0000
Varistor: ILS11500 or ILS23000
7. Care should be taken when connecting input and output devices to the
instrument. When a separate input and output common is provided, they
should not be mixed. Therefore a sensor common should NOT be connected
to an output common. This would cause EMI on the sensitive input common,
which could affect the instrument’s operation.

PROGRAMMING MODE ENTRY (SEL BUTTON)
It is recommended that all programming changes be made off line, or before
installation. The meter normally operates in the Display Mode. No parameters
can be programmed in this mode. The Programming Mode is entered by
pressing and holding the SEL button. If it is not accessible then it is locked by
either a security code, or a hardware lock.
MODULE ENTRY (SEL & RST BUTTONS)
The Programming Menu is organized into separate modules. These modules
group together parameters that are related in function. The display will alternate
between Pro and the present module. The RST button is used to select the desired
module. The displayed module is entered by pressing the SEL button.
MODULE MENU (SEL BUTTON)
Each module has a separate module menu (which is shown at the start of each
module discussion). The SEL button is pressed to advance to a particular
parameter to be changed, without changing the programming of preceding
parameters. After completing a module, the display will return to Pro NO.
Programming may continue by accessing additional modules.
SELECTION / VALUE ENTRY
For each parameter, the display alternates between the present parameter and
the selections/value for that parameter. The RST button is used to move through
the selections/values for that parameter. Pressing the SEL button, stores and
activates the displayed selection/value. This also advances the meter to the next
parameter.
For numeric values, press the RST button to access the value. The right hand
most digit will begin to flash. Pressing the RST button again increments the digit
by one or the user can hold the RST button and the digit will automatically
scroll. The SEL button will advance to the next digit. Pressing and holding the
SEL button will enter the value and move to the next parameter.

return the meter to the Display Mode. (If power loss occurs before returning to
the Display Mode, verify recent parameter changes.)
PROGRAMMING TIPS
It is recommended to start with Module 1 and proceed through each module
in sequence. When programming is complete, it is recommended to record the
parameter programming and lock out parameter programming with the user
input or programming security code.
FACTORY SETTINGS
Factory Settings may be completely restored in Module 2. This is useful
when encountering programming problems.
Pressing both the SEL and the RST button on power-up will also load the
factory settings and display rESEt. This allows operation in the event of a
memory failure or corrupted data.

Filter Setting
Filter values represent no filtering (0), up to heavy filtering (3). A value of 1
for the filter uses 1/4 of the new input and 3/4 of the previous display to
generate the new display. A filter value of 2 uses 1/8 new and 7/8 previous. A
filter value of 3 uses 1/16 new and 15/16 previous.
bANd
The filter will adapt to variations in the input signal. When the variation
exceeds the input filter band value, the filter disengages. When the variation
becomes less than the band value, the filter engages again. This allows for a
stable readout, but permits the display to settle rapidly after a large process
change. The value of the band is in display units, independent of the Display
Decimal Point position. A band setting of ‘0’ keeps the filter permanently
engaged at the filter level selected above.

slowly change. The result is that the stored calibration values may no longer
accurately define the input circuit. For most applications, recalibration every 1
to 2 years should be sufficient.
Calibration of the CUB5TC involves a voltage calibration and a cold
junction calibration. It is recommended that both calibrations be performed.
The voltage calibration MUST precede the cold junction calibration. Allow 30
minute warm up before performing any calibration related procedure. The
following procedures should be performed at an ambient temperature of 15 to
35 °C (59 to 95 °F).
Calibration should only be performed by individuals experienced in
calibrating electronic equipment.
CAUTION: The accuracy of the calibration equipment will directly affect the
accuracy of the CUB5TC.

Input Voltage Calibration
1. Connect a precision DC voltage source with an accuracy of 0.01% or better
to the TC+ (positive) and the TC- (negative) terminals of the CUB5TC. Set
the output of the voltage source to zero.
2. With the display at CodE 48, press and hold the SEL button for 2 seconds. Unit
will display CAL NO.
3. Press the RST button to select INP.
4. Press the SEL button. Display reads 0.0u.
5. With the voltage source set to zero, press SEL. Display reads CALC for about
eight seconds.
6. When display reads 60.0u, apply 60.000 mV input signal. Press SEL. Display
reads CALC for about eight seconds.
7. When display reads CAL NO, press SEL twice to exit Module 2 and return to
the normal display mode.
8. Proceed to Cold Junction Calibration.
Cold Junction Calibration
1. Install all option cards needed for your application and the rear cover,
or invalid results will occur.
2. The ambient temperature must be within 20°C to 30°C.
3. Connect a thermocouple (types T, E, J, K, or N only) with an accuracy of 1°C
or better to the meter.
4. Enter programming mode and verify the following settings in Module 1:
tYPE = thermocouple type connected to the unit
CJC = YES; SCALE = °C; dECPt = 0.0; OFSEt = 0
5. Place the thermocouple in close thermal contact to a reference thermometer
probe. (Use a reference thermometer with an accuracy of 0.25°C or better.)
The two probes should be shielded from air movement and allowed sufficient
time to equalize in temperature. (A calibration bath of known temperature
could be used in place of the thermometer.)
6. Compare the unit display with the reference temperature indicator (or
calibration bath). If a difference of more than ±1.0 °C exists, note the
difference (CJ error) and continue with cold junction calibration.
CJ Error = Reference Temperature - Unit Display.
7. Enter programming mode. Step through Module 2 to the Service Access
Code parameter and select CodE 48. Press and hold the SEL button until the
unit displays CAL NO. Press the RST button to select CJC.
8. Press SEL. Display reads CJC followed by the current cold junction value.
Calculate a new cold junction value as follows:
New cold junction = Current cold junction + CJ Error (noted above)
9. Press RST and set the display to the new cold junction value. Press and hold
SEL. Display reads CALC for about four seconds and then returns to CAL NO.
10. Press SEL twice to exit calibration and return to the normal display mode.
Verify the input reading is correct. If not, repeat steps 6 through 10.

balanced hysteresis is used. For alarm applications, usually unbalanced
hysteresis is used. For unbalanced hysteresis modes, the hysteresis functions on
the low side for high acting setpoints and functions on the high side for low
acting setpoints.
Note: Hysteresis eliminates output chatter at the switch point, while time delay
can be used to prevent false triggering during process transient events.

front panel RST button or user input.The output remains off until the trigger
point is crossed again.
LAtCH = Latch with immediate reset action; This action latches the output on at
the trigger point per the Setpoint Action shown in Setpoint Output Figures.
Latch means that the output can only be turned off by the front panel RST
button or user input manual reset, serial reset command or meter power cycle.

When the user input or RST button is activated (momentary action), the
corresponding “on” output is reset immediately and remains off until the
trigger point is crossed again. (Previously latched alarms will be off if power
up Display Value is lower than setpoint value.)
L-dLY = Latch with delay reset action; This action latches the output on at the
trigger point per the Setpoint Action shown in Setpoint Output Figures. Latch
means that the output can only be turned off by the front panel RST button
or user input manual reset, serial reset command or meter power cycle. When
the user input or RST button is activated (momentary action), the meter
delays the event until the corresponding “on” output crosses the trigger off
point. (Previously latched outputs are off if power up Display Value is lower
than setpoint value. During a power cycle, the meter erases a previous L-dLY
reset if it is not activated at power up.)
