The option cards are separately purchased cards that perform specific functions. These cards plug into the main circuit board of the unit. The option cards have many unique functions when used with the PAX2.
CAUTION: The option card and main circuit board contain static
sensitive components. Before handling the cards, discharge static
charges from your body by touching a grounded bare metal object. Ideally, handle the cards at a static controlled clean workstation. Also, only handle the cards by the edges. Dirt, oil or other contaminants that may contact the cards can adversely affect circuit operation.

To Install:
1. For option card specific installation instructions, see the installation
instructions provided with the option card being installed.
2. When handling the main circuit board, hold it by the rear cover. When handling the option card, hold it by the terminal block.
3. Remove the main assembly from the rear of the case by squeezing both finger holds on the rear cover and pulling the assembly out of the case. Or use a small screwdriver to depress the side latches and pull the main assembly out of the case. Do not remove the rear cover from the main circuit board.
4. Locate the appropriate option card slot location on the main circuit board. Align the option card terminal block with the slot terminal block position on the rear cover. Align the option card connector with the main circuit board option card connector and then press to fully engage the connector. Verify the tab on the option card rests in the alignment slot on the display board.
5. If installing an option card that includes a terminal block on the top of the option card, a knock-out on the top of the PAX case will need to be removed to allow the top terminal block to be inserted later. Locate the shaped knock-out that aligns with the option slot for which the option card is being installed. Carefully remove the knock-out, being careful not to remove additional knock-outs. Trim knock-out tabs (gates) that remain on the case. The top terminal block on the option card will need to be removed before completing step 6.
6. Slide the assembly back into the case. Be sure the rear cover latches engage in the case. If option card includes a top terminal block, install top terminal block at this time.

4.0 wiring The meTer

WIRING OVERVIEW
Electrical connections are made via screw-clamp terminals located on the back of the unit. 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 unit (DC or AC) be protected by a fuse or circuit breaker.
When wiring the unit, compare the numbers embossed on the back of the unit case against those shown in wiring drawings for proper wire position. Strip the wire, according to the terminal block specifications (stranded wires should be tinned with solder). Insert the lead into the correct terminal and then tighten the terminal until the wire is secure (Pull wire to verify tightness).
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 (Red Lion Controls # 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.
Visit RLC’s web site at http://www.redlion.net/emi for more information on
EMI guidelines, Safety and CE issues as they relate to Red Lion Controls products.

This device is not directly intended for connection to the mains without a reliable means to reduce transient over-voltages to 1500 V.
4.2 INPUT SIGNAL WIRING
CAUTION: Sensor input common is NOT isolated from user input common. In order to preserve the safety of the unit application, the sensor input
common must be suitably isolated from hazardous live earth referenced voltage; or input common must be at protective earth ground potential. If not, hazardous voltage may be present at the User Inputs and User Input Common terminals. Appropriate considerations must then be given to the potential of the user input common with respect to earth ground; and the common of the isolated option cards with respect to input common.
If you are wiring Input B, connect signal to Terminal 6 instead of 5, and set DIP switches 4, 5, and 6 to the positions shown for 1, 2, and 3.

If User Input 1 and/or 2 are wired for quadrature or directional counting, an additional switching device should not be
connected to that User Input terminal. User Input terminal does not need to be wired in order to remain in inactive state.
Sinking Logic (USrACt LO)
When the USrACt parameter is programmed to LO, the user inputs are internally pulled up to +3.3 V with 20 KW resistance. The input is active when it is pulled low (<1.1 V).

Main Display Loop
In the Main display loop, the D key is pressed to sequence through the selected Line 2 values. A left justified 2 or 3-character mnemonic indicates which Line 2 value is currently shown. When in the Main display loop, the Function keys ! and @ perform the user functions programmed in the User Input parameter section.
Parameter and Hidden Parameter Display Loops
These Display loops provide quick access to selected parameters that can be viewed and modified on Line 2 without having to enter Full Programming mode. These values include Parameter List A/B selection, setpoints, scale factors, counter load values and display (color, intensity and contrast) settings. To utilize the Parameter or Hidden Parameter Display Loops, a security code (1-250) must be programmed. (See Programming Security Code in the Display Parameters programming section for details.)
The Parameter Display Loop is accessed by pressing the P key. The selected Parameter Display Loop values can be viewed and/or changed per the Line 2 Value Access setting programmed for each available value. The Hidden Parameter Display Loop follows the Parameter display loop, and can only be accessed when the correct security code is entered at the Code prompt. Combining the two parameter loops provides an area for parameters that require general access and/or protected or secure access depending on the application needs.
While in the Parameter and Hidden Parameter loops, pressing the D key will return the unit to the Main Display Loop. To directly access the Code prompt, press and hold the P key. This can be done from the Main display loop or at any point during the Parameter display loop. Also, to directly access Full Programming mode while in the Hidden Parameter loop, press and hold the P key to bypass any remaining Hidden Parameter loop values.

PROGRAMMING MODE ENTRY
The Programming Mode is entered by pressing the P key. Full Programming
Mode will be accessible unless the unit is programmed to use the Parameter loop or Hidden Parameter loop on the Line 2 display. In this case, programming access will be limited by a security code and/or a hardware program lock. (Refer to the previous section for details on Line 2 display loops and limited programming access.) Full Programming Mode permits all parameters to be viewed and modified. In this mode, the front panel keys change to Programming Mode Operations and certain user input functions are disabled.
MODULE ENTRY
The Programming Menu is organized into five modules. These modules
group together parameters that are related in function. The ! and @ keys are used to select the desired module. The displayed module is entered by pressing the P key.
MODULE MENU
Upon entering a module, a parameter selection sub-menu is provided to
choose the specific parameter type for programming. For example, this includes counter, rate and user input under the Input Parameter menu. Use the ! and @ keys to select the desired parameter type, and press the P key to enter the parameter menu.

PARAMETER MENU
Upon entering the Parameter Menu, the P key is pressed to advance to a specific parameter to be changed. After completing the parameter menu, or upon pressing the D key, the display returns to the initial entry point for the parameter menu. For each additional press of the D key, the display returns to the previous level within the module until exiting the module entirely.
SELECTION/VALUE ENTRY
For each parameter, the top line display shows the parameter while the bottom line shows the selections/value for that parameter. The ! and @ keys are used to move through the selections/values for the parameter. Pressing the P key, stores and activates the displayed selection/value. This also advances the unit to the next parameter.
Numerical Value Entry
If the parameter is programmed for enter (Entr), the ! and @ keys are used to change the parameter values in any of the display loops.
The ! and @ keys will increment or decrement the parameter value. When the ! or @ key is pressed and held, the value automatically scrolls. The longer the key is held the faster the value scrolls.
For large value changes, press and hold the ! or @ key. While holding that key, momentarily press the opposite arrow key ( @ or ! ) to shift decades (10’s 100’s, etc), or momentarily press the D key and the value scrolls by 1000’s as the arrow key is held. Releasing the arrow key removes the decade or 1000’s scroll feature. The arrow keys can then be used to make small value changes as described above.
