VC-2xxx Series Converter
Product Manual
OVERVIEW
The VisConnect® VC-2xxx Series Converters are electronic devices which interrogate the
VS-25xx ViSmart® Series Solid-State Viscosity Sensors to provide measurements of
viscosity and temperature. The viscosity and temperature outputs are provided at
intervals of once per second.
Below is a high level block diagram of the VC-2010 CANopen Converter electronic

Figure 1: Converter Block Diagram
The VC-2xxx Series Converters are DIN rail mountable and have easily accessible screw
terminal connections for process interface connections and Sensor connections. The
Converters can also be connected to a optional DIN rail TBUS connector which
minimizes system wiring and decreases installation time.
The DIP switches available on the top of the Converter, minimize system setup by
allowing fast bus configuration. Settings for bus bit rate, node ID, and bus termination
are available.
Status LEDs easily help identify Converter and Sensor Status.
The Converters are powered using a DC power supply.

CONVERTER INSTALLATION
F
IELD INSTALLATION
VC-2xxx Series Converters are not approved for use in Hazardous Area classified
locations. It is strongly recommended that the VC-2xxx Converters be installed in an
enclosure NEMA type I, or equivalent.
Follow Table 1 for the recommended use of wires and strip lengths for the screw
terminals and TBUS plugs.
C
ONVERTER INSTALLATION ON
The VC-2xxx Series Converters are intended to be installed on a standard 35 mm DIN
rail. When mounting to a DIN rail, engage the Converter DIN rail guides first then pivot
the Converter onto the DIN rail. The spring loaded clasp will latch around onto the DIN
resulting in a firmly seated product.

Rail guides
Figure 2: Converter Installation on DIN Rail
When using the optional TBUS DIN rail connector, snap the TBUS connector first into
the rail, then mount Converter to the rail in the same method specified above. The TBUS
connector and Converter can be mated in one way only. Do not force the Converter onto
the TBUS connector otherwise product damage may result!

Figure 3 shows the optional TBUS connector with male and female plugs available with
the Converters. The Converters may be ordered with just the center TBUS connector or
with all three shown in the figure.

Figure 3: Optional TBUS Connectors
The TBUS connector allows side-by-side installations of the Converters. Figure 4 shows
multiple TBUS connectors installed on a DIN rail. First, install the TBUS connector onto
the DIN rail, then slide into adjacent TBUS connector.

ONVERTER REMOVAL FROM
To remove the Converter from the DIN Rail, use a flat blade tool to pry the spring loaded
clasp away from the DIN rail in the manner shown in Figure 5. Next pivot the Converter
up away from the DIN rail and remove.

ROUNDING
The Converter signals named Ground and GND are internally (electrically) connected.
Further, the Converter contains a metal clip on the DIN rail side of the package which is
also electrically connected to the Ground and GND signals. As such, when the Converter
is mounted on the DIN rail, the DIN rail is electrically connected to the ground on the
Converter. Care should be taken during installation to minimize and/or eliminate ground
loops between the Converter grounds and Earth ground.
In order to minimize ground loops, it is recommended that the sensor cable shield be
connected at one location only, as shown in Figure 6 below.
