devices:
• Momentary push buttons, illuminated
• Maintained push buttons, illuminated
• Flush head or extended head operators
• 2 position selector switches
• 2 position key switches
800EP/EM (22.5mm)
Push Button Modules
1–2
RediPANEL 800EP/EM Modules support Bulletin 800EP and 800EM
22.5mm devices. Table 1.A lists NEMA ratings for 800EP/EM devices.
• Flush head, extended head, or 40mm mushroom head operators
• Pilot lights
• 2 position selector switches, illuminated/non-illuminated
• 3 position selector switches, illuminated/non-illuminated
• Hole closing plugs
3 position devices use two RediPANEL inputs leaving an unused hole on the
front panel (hole plug 800E-N2).
Unpopulated Configuration
You can order an unpopulated 800EM/EP RediPANEL Module. The
unpopulated configuration consists of the enclosure and electronics without
the 800EM or 800EP devices. Each 800EM/EP device is ordered separately.
ATTENTION: Only install Allen-Bradley 800EM or 800EP
devices in the RediPANEL module. Using operators from other
!
manufacturers voids the warranty.

Overview
800T/H (30mm)
Push Button Modules
RediPANEL 800T/800H Modules support Bulletin 800T and 800H 30mm
120 VAC, Class 1, Div. 2 Groups A, B, C, and D devices only. The 800T
devices have a NEMA Type 12/13 rating for applications requiring
protection from oil and dust. The stainless steel faceplate of 800H devices is
designed for NEMA Type 4, 4X applications (hosedown or corrosive
environments).
RediPANEL 800T/H modules are available in 3 configurations:
• standard
• custom
• unpopulated
Standard Configuration
Standard configurations support 16 or 32 illuminated 800T/H push buttons.
Custom Configuration
Custom configurations support any 16 or 32 of the following 800T or 800H
devices:
• Flush head, extended head or mushroom head operators
• Pilot lights
• 2 position selector switches, illuminated/non-illuminated
• 3 position selector switches, illuminated/non-illuminated
• 4 position selector switches
• Hole closing plugs
3 or 4 position devices use 2 RediPANEL inputs (and 2 connector cables),
leaving a physical location with an output bit only. You can either:
1. Reduce the total number of push button devices by one for each 3 or 4
position device. Use a hole plug (Catalog No. 800T-N1B) to cover the
unused hole.
For example, a 16 button module that includes a 3 or 4 position device
can have a maximum of 14 additional push buttons.
2. Use a pilot light adapter cable (Catalog 800T-N309) to install a 3 or 4
position pilot light instead of the hole plug.
The above example would then support an additional pilot light for a total
of 16 devices.

DIP Switches2–3
Setting Switch Bank 12–4
Setting Switch Bank 22–6
Input and Output Image Tables2–8
DIP Switches on the RediPANEL are used to set Input/Output (I/O)
requirements. On a Remote I/O network, I/O is measured in terms of racks.
The smallest unit is a 1/4 rack.
Rack size determines the amount of space the module uses in the Input and
Output Image tables. When you select a rack size (using DIP switches),
space is reserved in the Input and Output Image Tables of your processor.
Three factors determine rack size:
• Input/Output size
• Flashing functions
• Handshaking functions
Input/Output Size
Input/Output Size directly relates to the number of push buttons on the
RediPANEL module. A 16 push button module has 16 inputs and 16
outputs. A 32 push button module has 32 inputs and 32 outputs.
Flashing Function
The flashing function causes the RediPANEL outputs to flash without
additional PLC programming. If flashing is enabled, the processor allocates
additional memory in the I/O Image Table. By branching the RediPANEL
output bits with the corresponding flashing bits, the RediPANEL outputs
blink at a 0.5 second rate.
A 16 push button module requires 16 additional outputs. A 32 push button
module requires 32 additional outputs to enable the flashing function.
Handshake
The handshake function latches an input bit until it is acknowledged by the
processor. Handshaking requires an additional output bit in the Output
Image Table.

• 115.2K for links up to 5,000 feet (1,500 meters)
• 230.4K for links up to 2,500 feet (750 meters)
When enabled, the Module uses the built-in flash feature to flash the lamps inside the
push button at a 0.5 sec. rate. Programming ON/OFF Timers is not necessary,
• Halt stops all push button operations when a fault is detected using the Push-to-Test
button. Communications with the PLC is disabled, the COMM LED turns off, and the
FAULT LED illuminates.
• Continue forces all associated input image table bits to the released state. The rest of
the push buttons continue to operate while the faulted button remains inoperable.
• Last tells the controller that the RediPANEL module is the last device in that logical rack,
not necessarily the last remote rack on the I/O link.
The Last setting is not a terminator resistor for the remote I/O link.
• Not Last specifies that the RediPANEL module is not the last device in the logical rack.
• Full configures the module as a full rack (regardless of the I/O requirements in Table
2.A).
The Full setting is required when connecting RediPANEL modules directly to
PLC-5/15 (Series B Revision G or earlier) or PLC-5/25 (Series A Revision C
or earlier) controllers.
• Table configures the rack size of the module using Table 2.A.
• When enabled, handshaking allows the use of the handshake bit. Any push button
depression is held ON until the controller verifies that it has received the signal.
The controller’s ladder logic must contain a handshake rung or the
RediPANEL module will not function properly.
See page 4–21 for details on using the Handshake Mode.
• When disabled, handshaking holds any push button depression ON for 100
milliseconds.
• If Last State is enabled, when communications is lost, the module stops sending signals
and the COMM LED turns off. Any output signals that were on when communication
was lost return to that state when communications is regained. The module locks up
and ignores any push button depressions. Lamps remain in their last state.
• If Last State is disabled, the module turns off any lamps that were on when
communications is lost. When communications is regained, the module updates itself
and resumes operations.

Electrical Precautions
Grounding
Install the Bulletin 2705 Push Button Module using publication NFPA 70E,
Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee Workplaces.
ATTENTION: Do not program any of the devices on the Push
Button Module as emergency stop switches. Emergency stop
!
switches must be hardwired to the master control relay of the
system to turn off all machine power completely.
Additional guidelines to follow include:
• Careful wire routing helps cut down on electrical noise. Route incoming
power to the module by a separate path from the communication cables.
Do not run communications wiring and power wiring in the same
conduit!
• Where wire paths must cross, make their intersection perpendicular.
• Grounding helps to limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic
interference (EMI). To avoid EMI, use shielded cables.
Grounding is an important safety measure in electrical installations. As
mentioned previously, with solid state systems grounding helps to limit the
effect of noise from EMI (electromagnetic interference).
An authoritative source on grounding requirements is the National ElectricalCode published by the National Fire Protection Association of Boston,
Massachusetts. Refer to an article of the Code that discusses the types and
sizes of wire conductors and safe methods of grounding electrical equipment
and components.

Wiring and Installation
Power Requirements
Connecting Power
RediPANEL Modules operate with different power sources.
The AC power supplies for the 800A and Membrane Modules have an
automatic over voltage shutdown. Automatic shutdown occurs if the output
voltage of the 5V supply rises by 25% or the 12V supply rises by 20%. To
reset the RediPANEL after an automatic shutdown, disconnect AC power as
follows:
For :Disconnect a AC power for:
120V AC Sourceminimum of 30 seconds
240V AC Sourceminimum of 60 seconds
Connect power lines to the module as shown below:
Terminal BlockConnection

L2/NNeutral Wire
L1Power Wire
(–)DC 0 Volts
(+)DC +24 Volts
ATTENTION: Do not apply power to the module until all
electrical connections, including communications lines, have
!
been connected.
ATTENTION: The ground terminal (GND) must be connected
to a reliable low impedance earth ground to protect the display
!
against electrical noise. The ground will also help protect
personnel from electrical shock if a voltage is shorted to the
enclosure.
1. Connect ground wire to the GND terminal on the terminal block.
2. Connect the power lines, L1 and L2/N , or (–) and (+DC). Do not apply
power until all connections have been made.

3. Connect the communications lines as described on page 3-16.
4. Apply power and verify power up operation.
Chapter 3
Wiring and Installation
Enclosures
You must use an enclosure to protect the electronics of the Push Button
Module from atmospheric contamination. Standards established by the
National Electrical Manufacturer’s Association (NEMA) define enclosure
types based on the degree of protection an enclosure will provide.
Heat Dissipation
Within the enclosure, the Push Button Module (or Modules) requires room
for convection cooling.
In some applications, other equipment inside (or outside) the enclosure may
produce too much heat. Place blower fans inside the enclosure to circulate
air to reduce hot spots near components. In extreme cases, use air
conditioning to prevent heat build-up.
ATTENTION: Do not use unfiltered outside air. It could
contain contaminants or dirt harmful to the components.

2. Drill 4 (or 6) 0.312” (7.92mm) diameter holes for the top and bottom
mounting brackets.
3. Slide the Module through the opening. The mounting tabs help seat the
Module against an 1/16” (1.6mm) to 1/8” (3.2mm) thick enclosure.
4. To complete the mechanical installation, apply the mounting brackets and
tighten all the captive knurled thumbscrews. Figure 3.3 shows the
location of these screws. NOTE: Your unit may not have a mounting
bracket and thumbscrews. In that case, tighten the #10-32 nuts that are
provided to complete the installation.

Installing the 800EM/EP
Push Button Modules
The 800EM/EP Push Button Modules are available in 3 different
mounting styles:
• Panel Mounting
• Fiberglass Enclosure Mounting
• Steel Enclosure Mounting
This section shows how to install all 3 versions of the 16 and 32 Push Button
800EM/EP Modules.
800EM/EP Panel Mounting
To install a 16 or 32 Push Button 800EM/EP Faceplate Module:
1. Cut an opening in the panel approximately 12.55 inch (318.8mm) H x
The Remote I/O link begins at the scanner module. The scanner modules
and controllers impose physical and logical limitations on the link.
• The push button module is addressed like a remote I/O rack.
• The link can have up to 32 remote I/O devices. Refer to the appropriate
PLC/SLC manual.
• The baud rate limits the maximum cable length (link distance):
Baud RateCable Length (Maximum)
57.6 K3,000 meters (10,000 feet)
115.2K1,500 meters (5,000 feet)
230.4K750 meters (2,500 feet)
The connection to the link is through the Serial Data Link cable (Catalog No.
1770-CD). This cable wires into the connector plug of the module.
Connect the Push Button Module to the scanner module with the
Allen-Bradley I/O cable (Catalog No. 1770-CD) or Belden 9463.
A connector plug is provided with each Push Button Module. Wire the
connector to the I/O cable as shown below.

A Belden twin-axial cable links the RediPANEL Module to the Remote I/O
communications. It wires the mating connector of the user’s scanner module
to the mating connector of the 2705 module. It is recommended that you
terminate the first and last device on the remote I/O link. Install a 150 ohm,
1/2 watt resistor between lines 1 and 2 at both ends of the link for up to 16
devices and an 82 ohm, 1/2 watt resistor for up to 32 devices on the link.

Module Bit Addresses
Each push button on the RediPANEL module is assigned a bit address. You
need to know these addresses when writing your PLC program. These bit
addresses are the same for all PLC processors.
This section shows the bit address locations for 8, 16 and 32 button modules.

Programming the RediPANEL Modules
Using a PLC-2
with a 1772-SD2 Scanner
When using a PLC-2/20 or 2/30 with a RediPANEL module, the system must
include a 1772-SD2 Remote I/O Scanner/Distribution Panel (or a 1771-SN
Sub I/O Scanner Module). The 1772-SD2 allows the PLCs to communicate
with as many as 16 remote I/O devices in any configuration totaling 7 logical
racks of I/O or less.
For details on 1771-SD2 wiring connections and switch settings, see
Publication No. 1772-2.18 (The Remote I/O Scanner/Distribution Panel).
Programming Example
Switch Bank #1 on the RediPANEL Module is set to use:
• Rack Address 2 (switch settings 1 - 6)
• Module Group 0 (switch settings 7 and 8)
Figure 4.1 shows typical address instructions and how these instructions are
used in your PLC-2/20 or 2/30 program.

After entering the ladder logic, place the PLC in the RUN or REMOTE RUN
mode to test your logic. Monitor the ON/OFF status of the input and output
bits of the RediPANEL push button module by pressing [SEARCH] 53
followed by the address to monitor. This displays the input or output image
table for that address.
The following figure shows what the I/O image table looks like when you

Special Considerations
If the MODE SELECT DIP Switch #5 (Fault Table) on the 1772-SD2 is set
to OFF, a remote I/O fault table is generated and remote I/O rack #2 must be
declared used. These fault status bits are generated in the addresses
associated with Module Groups 5 and 6 of remote I/O rack #2. (See
Publication 1772-2.18).

Chapter 4
Programming the RediPANEL Modules
Using a PLC-2
with a Sub I/O Scanner
When using a PLC-2 processor with RediPANEL module, the system must
contain a 1771-SN Sub I/O Scanner. Mini PLC-2 processors communicate
with remote I/O using this Sub I/O Scanner. The Sub I/O Scanner is located
in the same chassis as the mini PLC-2 and communicates with the PLC using
block transfers. The 1771-SN Sub I/O Scanner looks like an intelligent I/O
module to the PLC. You can also use Sub I/O Scanner in any chassis of a
PLC-2/20 or 2/30 system.
The 1771-SN requires one PLC scan to receive the output data from the
output image table and another PLC scan to send discrete input data to the
input image table. Anything connected to the Sub I/O Scanner is scanned
asynchronous to the PLC scan. The PLC then scans the Sub I/O Scanner
during the I/O portion of the PLC scan. See the section on Operating Cycles.
Block Transfer Example
Figure 4.2 shows an example of a block transfer between a Sub I/O Scanner
module and a PLC.

the block transfer instructions to the first available timer/counter location.
The length of the block transfer is equal to eight words (for the Sub I/O
Scanner utility functions) plus 2 words for each 1/4 rack of I/O image table
your module requires. For additional information on block transfers, see
your PLC-2 User’s Manual.
The File To File Move in rung 3 is triggered by the Done bit of the block
transfer Read instruction. The File To File Move serves as a buffer for the
block transfer Read data.
Block Transfer Read Instruction
Reads input data from the Sub I/O Scanner and transfers that data to the
Input Data File in the PLC starting with word 200. The File To File Move is
a buffer for this information. The input data transferred to word files 200 215 will immediately (after Block Transfer Read done bit is set) move to
word files 400 - 415. The input addresses will start at 4 instead of 1.
Block Transfer Write Instruction
Writes output data to the Output Data File in the PLC (300 - 315) and then
transfers it to the Sub I/O scanner. Output addresses start at 3 instead of 0.
Helpful Hint
If you start your word files with hundred numbers, (200, 300 or 400), the rest
of the instruction address is similar to hardwired I/O. The 2nd number in the
address equals the rack number, the 3rd number equals the module group
number (word), and the 4th and 5th numbers equal the bit location. For more
details on the Sub I/O Scanner, refer to Sub I/O Scanner Module Product
Data (Publication No. 1771-2.184).

Programming the RediPANEL Modules
Using a PLC-5
The PLC-5/15 and 5/25 processors have built-in remote I/O scanners. No
additional hardware is required. Run the two conductor shielded cable (Blue
Hose) from the RediPANEL to the remote I/O port of the PLC-5.
To use the built-in scanner:
• Set switch 8 in DIP Switch Bank SW-1 on the processor to the OPEN,
OFF or Scanner Mode position.
• Set the baud rate on the RediPANEL module to 57.6K baud for a
PLC-5/15 or -5/25.
For an enhanced processor the baud rate can be 57.6K, 115.2K or 230.4K.
Programming Example
Switch Bank #1 on the RediPANEL Module is set to use:
• Rack Address 3 (switch settings 1 - 6)
• Module Group 4 (switch settings 7 and 8)
Figure 4.4 shows typical address instructions and how these instructions are
used in your PLC-5/15 or -5/25 program.

Programming the RediPANEL Modules
Using a PLC-5
with a Sub I/O Scanner
Use a 1771-SN Sub I/O Scanner with a PLC-5 processor when the
application requires more remote devices than the processor can
accommodate. The Sub I/O Scanner module can communicate to 16
additional remote I/O devices. Locate the 1771-SN Sub I/O scanner in the
same rack as the PLC-5 (the local rack) or in anyone of the remote racks
supported by the processor.
The PLC-5 communicates with the Sub I/O Scanner using block transfer read
and write instructions. The block transfer read instruction reads input data
from the Sub I/O Scanner and transfers that data to integer files in the PLC.
The block transfer write instruction writes output data to files in the PLC,
then transfers that data to the Sub I/O Scanner. Input and output addresses
begin at the integer file assigned to the block transfer instruction (instead of
Input addresses starting with “I” and Output addresses starting with “O”).
The rest of the input addresses depend on the specific integer file designated
as the Data File in the block transfer read instruction. The rest of the output
address depends on the specific integer file designated as the Data File in the
block transfer write instruction.

Programming the RediPANEL Modules
Operating Cycles
The figure below illustrates a single operating scan or cycle of a PLC
processor.
End of program scan.
One cycle = Program scan + I/O scan
I/O scan: Status of inputs is noted and
outputs are energized.
Start of program scan. Instructions are
scanned sequentially, as entered.
On power up, the processor begins a scan of the user program.
• The PLC scans the input/output (I/O) devices to determine their status.
• During the I/O update scan, the PLC communicates with the scanner.
• The scanner performs a remote I/O scan, asynchronous to the PLC’s scan.
The I/O chassis connected to the scanner are scanned in sequential order
according to the I/O rack number, regardless of I/O channel.
The remote I/O scan time varies according to the amount of I/O data change
taking place. Data from the input devices is transferred to the PLC’s input
image table and data from the PLC’s output image table is transferred to the
output devices. After completing the I/O scan, the processor begins the
program scan. At this time, all ladder logic program instructions are scanned
and executed in the order in which they were entered.
The I/O scan and the program scan are performed one after the other. The
operating cycle is the total time required for both the I/O scan and the
program scan.
The sections on Response Time and Handshake Mode cover the importance
of timing in the program portion of the cycle in contrast to the I/O portion.
4–19
Chapter 4
Programming the RediPANEL Modules
Response Time
Response time is the amount of time it takes the RediPANEL Module to
respond to a depression of a button.
The RediPANEL Module uses the Scanner Module to tell the PLC when a
button is pressed. The Scanner Module takes a maximum of 7.0 milliseconds
to scan a device, unless there is electrical noise. A maximum of 16 physical
devices may be connected to any single Scanner Module channel. The
maximum time between reading button depressions is:
Therefore, if a button is pressed, released and pressed again within 144
milliseconds, the second press is missed by the Scanner Module. To deal
with the response time factor:
1. The RediPANEL Module maintains each press of a push button in
the ON state for a minimum of 100 milliseconds (in the Timed Mode) or
until it is recognized by the PLC (in the Handshake Mode).
2. The push button must be released for 50 milliseconds between
presses or the second press is ignored.
4–20
Chapter 4
Programming the RediPANEL Modules
Handshake Mode
RediPANEL Modules have a standard TIMED feature that holds all push
button depressions for a minimum of 100 milliseconds allowing the PLC to
read the depression during its scan cycle. No programming is required.
Most system configurations use this feature to insure data capture of a push
button depression.
Handshaking is required only under certain conditions.
1. Lengthy scan times. Lengthy scan times occur when the block
transfer instruction is used numerous times in the ladder program.
Lengthy scan times also occur with large ladder programs.
2. When the remote I/O link is approaching its physical limitation of 16
devices (RediPANEL modules, keypad modules, remote I/O racks).
To select the Handshake feature, enable (set ON) the module’s DIP switch 7
of Switch Bank #2. Setting this switch OFF, gives you the TIMED feature,
which is the default setting. Chapter 2 discusses switch settings for mode
configuration. Figure 2.3 refers to Handshake enable and disable settings.
To use the Handshake feature, the PLC program must have a rung that
accepts the handshake bit and allows communication to continue. Figure
4.8 shows an example rung. Your PLC program must
contain this rung or
the module will not operate.
Figure 4.8
Ladder Logic Handshake Rung
Input Handshake BitOutput Handshake Bit
1717
If handshake is enabled and the handshake rung is in the user’s program, the
RediPANEL module holds all push button input signals high for a minimum
of one complete PLC program scan. The signal(s) remain high for one
complete cycle of the handshake input bit. The handshake input and output
signals continuously toggle independent of any push button closures. The
handshake function is operational even if no push buttons have been pressed.
4–21
Chapter 4
Programming the RediPANEL Modules
Figure 4.9 shows handshake timing diagrams. They are not precise timing
diagrams. Timing varies from application to application and is dependent
upon the number of remote I/O nodes, program scan time, etc.

Preventive Maintenance
The best maintenance technique is preventive maintenance. Observe the
following guidelines to minimize malfunctions:
• Once a month, use the push-to-test button located on the front of the Push
Button Module.
• Prevent accumulation of dust and dirt by:
– Installing in a NEMA Type 12/13 or 4/4X enclosure
– Keeping enclosure clean
– Keeping enclosure doors closed
• Avoid hot spots by:
– Maintaining minimum spacing
– Not storing unnecessary articles in enclosure
• Periodically check for loose connections.
ATTENTION: To avoid shock hazard, remove incoming power
before checking connections.
!
• Avoid electrical noise by:
– Following the electrical guidelines discussed in Chapter 6
– Keeping enclosure doors closed

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Using the Fault Indicator
FAULT StateWhat it Means:What to do:
1. Module is operating correctly and no internal faults have
been detected.
OFF
ON
Blinking
2. Module is not receiving input power.
3. Module is in the first second of the Push-to-Test cycle.
1. The FAULT indicator is on momentarily during the powerup
sequence of the module.
2. Push-to-Test button pushed and the module has been in
the test mode for more than one second.
3. Internal fault detected.
1. DIP switch fault.
2. Rack address and calculated size is invalid.
For example, the module is addressed for the last module
group, group 3, of a logical rack and its size was calculated
as a half rack. The functional configurations which result in
a size of two quarter racks are indicated in Chapter 4.
The red FAULT indicator (on front of module) indicates any software or
hardware faults not related to communications. The Fault LED indicates one
of 3 states:
• Off
• On
• Blinking
1. Nothing
2. Nothing
3. Nothing
1. Nothing
2. Nothing
3. Cycle power to module.
For 800A Push Button Modules, see the Push-to-Test
button on page 5–4.
If the fault continues, return the module to the factory for
repair.
1. Check the following:
• Make sure you programmed the PLC for handshaking
before enabling the handshake bit on the Push Button
Module.
• Make sure you enabled one of the functions of the Push
Button Module (lamps or push buttons). If DIP switches
2,3 and 4 at switch location SW-2 are Off, the module is
not capable of any functions.
2. Recalculate the rack size.
5–2
FAULT During Test Mode
If the FAULT indicator was ON before you pressed the push-to-test button,
the LED will remain ON only if a fault is found. If the fault disappears and
no lamps are flashing, the FAULT indicator will turn Off.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Using the Push-to-Test Button
A TEST button is located on the front of the module. When you press and
hold this button, the module enters test mode. Two tests are run.
1. Lamp / LED Test
All push button lamps and red/green LEDs turn OFF for one second, then
illuminate for two seconds. If you press the TEST button when the test is
done, the module continues with the Push Button Contact test.
2. Push Button Contact Test
Push buttons react as shown in Table 5A.
Selector switches react as shown in Table 5B.
During TEST mode, the status of the lamps are not updated, and any push
button presses are not transmitted to the PLC. The module exits test mode
two seconds after you release test button.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Basic Troubleshooting
Questions
Since the Push Button Module is part of an integrated system, you must
evaluate the entire system when a fault is detected. Start your
troubleshooting by asking these basic questions:
• Is the source power to the Push Button Module present?
• Do you have a communications light? If not, check your twin-axial cable
wiring. The blue and clear wires may be interchanged.
• Is the rack address set properly? Refer to Chapter 2.
• Are the baud rates of the Push Button Module and the Scanner Module
the same? Refer to Chapter 2.
• Is the Push Button Module the last in a series of modules, and has it been
identified as the last rack? Refer to Chapter 2.
• Is the communication connector securely plugged in at both the Push
Button Module end and the Scanner Module end?
• Have you changed the settings of any of the DIP switches? New DIP
switch settings are not acknowledged until power is cycled. Refer to
Chapter 2.
• On modules with a switch selectable power supply, is the 120/240 AC
voltage switch position correct?
• If applicable, is the fuse properly installed and in working order?

Custom RediPANEL Modules
The 800A RediPanel Module is available in a standard or custom
configuration. If the standard unit with momentary push buttons does not
meet your application requirements you can create a custom module.
Custom modules can contain any of the following:
• Momentary illuminated push buttons
• Maintained illuminated push buttons
• 2 position selector switches
• Flush head or extended head operators
• 2 position key switches
Custom units are factory ordered or customer installed. The
Modification/Replacement Kit allows you to modify a standard module in
the field. The kit contains:
The Bulletin 800E selector switches described below can be installed in
RediPANELs:
Two Position Illuminated
These devices operate the same as a normal pushbutton. All wiring cable
terminals are used.
Two Position Non-Illuminated
The switch terminals wires (blue and grey) make normal connections. The
lamp wires are not used and must be insulated to protect them from touching
any other conductive material. The wire terminal should be insulated with
heat shrink tubing or tape and secured to the cable assembly with a tie wrap.
Three Position Non-Illuminated
This assembly requires that one of the adjacent positions not contain a push
button but either be left blank or contain a pilot lamp. Two terminal blocks
(800E-4X10V) are required. The gray wire from the adjacent terminal block
must be moved to the second terminal block on the three position selector
switch assembly. It may be necessary to cut the tie wrap to allow the wires to
reach the terminal block. If the adjacent position is blank, the blue wire that
would have been used for the lamp must be moved to the second terminal
block connector. If the blue wire is not long enough, a wire jumper
(2705-E3) must be installed from the second contact block to the first contact
block terminal screw. If the adjacent position contains a pilot lamp, the
existing wires stay as is in the adjacent position. The lamp wires and adjacent
contact block wires not used must be insulated to protect them from touching
any other conductive material. The wire terminal should be insulated with
heat shrink tubing or tape and secured to the cable assembly with a tie wrap.
