user with sufficient privileges through SFTP or webApp.
• Interface with the operator through the console, webApp (for supervision and maintenance)
• Firmware upgrade by SFTP or webApp (using MNT port) or USB 2.0 port.
ITB Configuration
HUe maintains and manages the information that supports the real-time database, coreDb. In this
database, the I/O signals are related to the communication protocols signals. The configuration is
based on XML files that are generated with the Easergy Builder tool. These files are generated on
a PC and sent to the CPU via an SFTP connection through the MNT port.
ITB Synchronization
Up to two different synchronization sources can be configured. In this configuration is included the
priority level for each source, so there will be a primary and a secondary source. If both sources
are active, only the primary source will synchronize the system.

WARNING
Electrostatic discharges may damage semi-conducive devices within the module.
NOTICE
In order to minimize the adverse effects of noise and heat, it is recommended to install the ITB’s
WARNING
It is important to assure that handling is always done while the ITB elements are unpowered.
3.1 ITB Installation
3.1.1 Handling Modules
Please note the following precautions to avoid electrostatic damages:
• You should never touch the pins of the bus connector.
• You should keep the module in its packaging box when unused.
3.1.2 HUe Location in the ITB
The HUe module must always be the first module in the ITB, that is, it must be mounted in the first
position of the first DIN rail, being the bus initiator in the ITB.
The HU can only be found in the second position of the DIN rail, if the ITB requires processing
redundancy. In this configuration, there is a main DIN rail in which two redundant HU modules are
installed and connected to the acquisition ITB by means of an Ethernet network; the system’s bus
is not used in this case.
head unit as far as possible from other modules handling alternating current and high voltages.
3.1.3 Power Supply Requirements
To calculate the ITB’s power supply requirements, you will need to consider the power
consumption of each module. The modules’ power consumptions must be added plus a safety
margin (min. 20%). Each row in the ITB is powered independently thought the HUe (first row) or XU
(second and following rows) module.
In order to avoid ITB overload, the power supply performance should also be considered (typically,
70-90%).
The power consumption data is detailed in the technical specifications table of each module’s user
manual and in the technical label on the equipment.
3.1.4 Mount and Dismount Procedures
Saitel DR modules have a DIN-rail bracket at the rear side that allows mounting on a DIN rail.
Figure 12 – Mount bracket on DIN rail.
The mounting procedure is described below:
• Switch off the power supply.
• Attach the module’s rear bracket on the upper DIN rail.

• Press the lower front panel gently until a click confirms that the bracket is fit on the rail.
• Verify the module is anchored firmly to the rail, although lateral movement is possible.
Figure 13 – Saitel DR module on a DIN rail.
The module is dismounted from the DIN rail as follows:
• Switch off the power supply.
• If necessary, disconnect the bridge(s) connecting the module to the system bus.
• Holding the module by the front panel, push the upper metal tab downward. The user can also
pull the tab down using for example a screwdriver as shown:
• Pressing the tab, remove the module from the lower DIN rail.
• Once detached, the module can be removed easily.

For safety reasons, before connecting the aerial terminal to the module, it is recommended:
3.2.2 Power and Reset
Figure 14 – Power and Reset.
In the upper left area you can observe the power supply input terminal for the first row in the ITB.
There is a DC/DC converter, next to the filtering electronic components, which is used to power
both the HUe module itself and all the AB modules assembled on the same row.

is 10 W. If the modules to be assembled on the ITB require a higher power, then, you will need
to split the ITB into several rows, always observing the above-mentioned maximum power
allowed for each row.
A Reset button is included in this block allowing the user to reset all the ITB.
The POWER connector must be used as power input. The input voltage range is 24 to 48 VDC, with
a tolerance of ±20%.

From left to right, the connecting order must be: functional Earth, negative and positive terminal.
• To check that the voltage between the positive and negative poles does not exceed the
maximum operating voltage (see the technical table in chapter 6).
• To check that the polarity has not been inverted according to the label on the terminal.

3.2.3 Digital Inputs
Figure 15 – General-purpose digital inputs.
HUe has 4 digital inputs located in the lower left, only configurable as single inputs. These signals
are useful to inform the operator about some malfunction in the system.
The digital inpus 1 and 2 can be used for the following purposes:
• Digital input 1: This signal provides the HUe module with information about the digital inputs’
polarization status of the ABs installed in the ITB. When the signal is active, the polarization of
all digital signals is correct. If the signal is disabled, the HU will understand that there is a
polarization fault.
• Digital input 2: If this signal is enabled, the HUe module will interpret that the ITB is working in
LOCAL mode, whereas if it is disabled, the ITB is operating in REMOTE mode. When the ITB
is in LOCAL mode the commands are disabled.
To use these two signals with the purpose described above, they must be defined in the database
following the instructions included in paragraph 4.5.1 of this manual.
Digital Inputs Wiring
Use AUX DI terminal in order to use the general-purpose digital inputs. These signals are selfpolarized, that is, they do not need an external polarization source.
These digital inputs are designed for internal use within the cabinet where the HUe module is
installed.
