GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Data Station Plus was designed to act as a nexus for industrial data collection and management. The unit offers multiple protocol conversion, data logging and remote machine access. With three built in serial ports and a 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX Ethernet port, the unit performs protocol conversion, allowing disparate devices to communicate seamlessly with one another. The Ethernet port supports up to four protocols simultaneously so even Ethernet to Ethernet protocols can be converted.

The CompactFlash card allows data to be collected and stored for later review. The files are stored in simple CSV file format allowing common applications, such as Microsoft Excel and Access, to view and manage the data. The free Websync utility provides a means to synchronize the files with a PC’s hard drive for permanent storage. The CompactFlash card may also be used to load new configuration files into the Data Station.

The built-in web server allows log files to be retrieved manually, and also provides access to the unique “virtual HMI”. The virtual HMI is programmed just like Red Lion’s G3 series of HMI. Any standard web browser such as Internet Explorer or Netscape may be used to monitor or control the HMI from a PC anywhere in the world.

The USB port may be used for blazing fast file downloads, or to mount the Data Station’s CompactFlash card as an external drive to your PC.

The Data Station’s DIN rail mounting saves time and panel space and snaps easily onto standard top hat (T) profile DIN rail.

DIMENSIONS In inches (mm)

SOFTWARE

The Data Station is programmed with Crimson® 2.0 software for Windows® 2000 or later platforms. The software is an easy to use graphical interface which can be purchased as part of a kit that includes a manual and cables, or downloaded free of charge from www.redlion.net.

SAFETY SUMMARY

All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the manual or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it. If equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other actuators not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially harmful to persons or equipment in the event of a fault to the controller. An independent and redundant temperature limit indicator with alarm outputs is strongly recommended.

CAUTION: Risk of Danger.

Read complete instructions prior to

installation and operation of the unit.

HARDWARE

INSTALLATION

DIN rail should be mounted horizontally so that the unit’s ventilation holes are vertical in relation to cabinet orientation. A minimum clearance of 1 inch (25.4 mm) should be maintained above and below the unit in order to ensure proper thermal regulation.

The unit shall be installed inside a UL Listed Industrial Control Panel or

similar type of enclosure. A minimum 3.2 mm distance shall be maintained between the hazardous live parts of the equipment and accessible parts of the fire/electrical enclosure.

COMPACTFLASH® CARD

CompactFlash

(Top Side)

CompactFlashInsert Top Side Towards Left

CompactFlash socket is a Type II socket that can accept either Type I or II cards. Use cards with a minimum of 4 Mbytes and a maximum of 2 Gbytes with the Data Station’s CompactFlash socket. Cards are available at most computer and office supply retailers. CompactFlash can be used for configuration transfers, data logging, and trending.

POWER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

It is very important that the power supply is mounted correctly if the unit is

to operate reliably. Please take care to observe the following points:

– The power supply must be mounted close to the unit, with usually not more

than 6 feet (1.8 m) of cable between the supply and the Data Station. Ideally, the shortest length possible should be used.

– The wire used to connect the Data Station’s power supply should be at least

22-gage wire. If a longer cable run is used, a heavier gage wire should be used. The routing of the cable should be kept away from large contactors, inverters, and other devices which may generate significant electrical noise.

– A power supply with an NEC Class 2 or Limited Power Source (LPS) and

SELV rating is to be used. This type of power supply provides isolation to accessible circuits from hazardous voltage levels generated by a mains power supply due to single faults. SELV is an acronym for “safety extralow voltage.” Safety extra-low voltage circuits shall exhibit voltages safe to touch both under normal operating conditions and after a single fault, such as a breakdown of a layer of basic insulation or after the failure of a single component has occurred.

Note: Do not remove or insert

the CompactFlash card while power is applied.

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. To reduce the chance of noise spikes entering the unit via the power lines,

connections should be made to a clean source. Connecting to circuits that also

power loads such as contactors, relays, motors, solenoids etc. should be avoided.

2. The unit should be mounted in a metal enclosure, which is properly connected

to protective earth.

3. Use shielded (screened) cables for all Signal and Control inputs. The shield

(screen) pigtail 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.

c. Connect the shield to common of the Data Station and leave the other end

of the shield unconnected and insulated from earth ground.

Visit www.redlion.net for a complete list of our PSDR Series of NEC Class

2 power supplies.

4. 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.

5. Long cable runs are more susceptible to EMI pickup than short cable runs. Therefore, keep cable runs as short as possible.

6. In extremely high EMI environments, the use of external EMI suppression devices is effective. The following EMI suppression devices (or equivalent) are recommended: Ferrite Suppression Cores for signal and control cables:

Fair-Rite part number 0443167251 (RLC part number FCOR0000) TDK part number ZCAT3035-1330A Steward part number 28B2029-0A0

Line Filters for input power cables:

Schaffner part number FN610-1/07 (RLC part number LFIL0000) Schaffner part number FN670-1.8/07 Corcom part number 1 VR3
