A Conceptual View of the RMC Module
The flexibility of the RMC software and hardware allows a large range of configurations. Acquiring a better understanding of the controller’s overall functionality and capabilities while at
the same time planning out how the controller can be used will deliver maximum effectiveness in your application.
The RMC can be connected at the system level to as many as 17 modules, one of which can
be an Access module and the others (16 maximum) can be any combination of available modules. The user will define each address via the button on the face of each module. Each installed RMC module must have a unique Standard Bus address ranging from 1-9, A-F, where the
factory defaults for each is Standard Bus address 1.
Getting Started Quickly
The RMC (Controller) can be ordered with up to four PID loops with default loop configurations (all loops) out of the box as follows:
• Analog Input functions set to thermocouple, type J
• Control loops 1-4 use Analog Inputs 1-4
• Heat algorithm set for PID, Cool algorithm set to off
To enable a loop for heat simply follow the steps below:
1. Navigate to the Setup Page
2. Once on the Setup Page navigate to the Output Menu and then the output of choice
3. Change the default setting of Off to Heat Power
4. Select the desired loop instance

Note:
Zones can communicate with one another over the backplane (local and split rail). Once
the system is configured and running, changing zone addresses without careful deliberation may cause disruption in operation.
Some of the user selectable ordering options are listed below:
1. Class 2 or SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) equivalent Power Supplies:
• 90-264 Vac to 24Vdc @ 31 watts
• 90-264 Vac to 24Vdc @ 60 watts
• 90-264 Vac to 24Vdc @ 91 watts
2. RMC Module can provide:
• 1 to 4 control loops, limits or CT inputs
• 1 to 9 inputs (various types)
• 1 to 12 outputs (various types)
• Modbus RTU communications
As can be seen above the RMC module is fully scalable with regards to power requirements,
number of loops, inputs, and outputs.
It is useful to think of the controller in three parts: inputs, functions and outputs. Information
flows from an input to a function to an output when the controller is properly configured. An
RMC module can carry out several functions at the same time, e.g., PID control, monitoring
for several different alarm situations, monitoring and acting upon Digital Inputs and driving
output devices such as heaters, audible alarms, lights. Each process needs to be thought out
carefully and the controller’s inputs, functions and outputs set up properly.
Functions use input signals to calculate a value. A function may be as simple as reading a digital input to set a state to true or false, or reading a temperature to set an alarm state to on
or off. Alternatively, if a failure with the primary sensing device should occur, sensor backup
could be utilized to avoid an unwanted shutdown.
To set up a function, one of the first things that must be considered is the function source
and instance. For example, if the control is equipped with Digital Inputs (source) and it was
decided to use DI 9 (instance) it can then be associated with an Action to reset an individual
alarm or all alarms.
To configure a Digital Input as described above:
1. Navigate to the Setup Page and then to the Digital I/O menu.
2. Select the desired instance and set the direction to input voltage or input dry contact.
3. Navigate to the Setup Page and then the Action menu.
4. Set the Action Function to Alarm
5. Select which alarm instance will be reset (0 equals all)
6. Select the Source Function to Digital I/O
7. Select the Source Instance (step 2 above)
8. Select the Source Zone (0 equals the module being configured).
9. Select the Transmitter Active Level to execute the desired function.
This configuration is now complete. When the selected digital input is active, the alarm or all
alarms that are latched without a currently existing alarm condition will be reset. If a specific
alarm instance (1 - 8) is selected (step 5) it will be that instance alone that will be reset.
Note:
Alarms will reset automatically when the condition that caused the alarm goes back to a
non-alarm state if the Latching prompt is set to non-latching (Setup Page, Alarm Menu).
Keep in mind that a function is a user-programmed internal process that does not execute any
action outside of the controller. To have any effect outside of the controller, an output must
be configured to respond to a function.
Inputs
The inputs provide the information that any given programmed function can act upon. In a
simple form, this information may come from an operator pushing a button, or as part of a
more complex function it may represent a remote set point being received from another zone.
Each analog input can be configured for thermistors, thermocouples, or RTDs to read the process variable. It can also read mV/volts, current or resistance, enabling usage of various devices to read humidity, air pressure, operator inputs and other values. The settings in the Analog
Input Menu (Setup Page) for each analog input must be configured to match the device connected to that input.
Each digital input reads whether a device is active or inactive. A RM system can be equipped
with multiple digital I/O. Each I/O point must be configured to function as either an input or
output with the direction parameter in the digital I/O Menu (Setup Page).
Another concept that needs to be understood is the difference between an input tied to a real-world device such as a thermocouple and one that is tied to an internal function.
In the example above the analog input function on the left is tied directly to the control function where its internal output is routed to a real-world output.
With a slight modification of the graphic above the example below now ties the real-world inputs directly to the control and alarm functions. For the sake of this example the following is
true:
-Two unique high process alarms are congured for analog inputs 1 and 2
-The logic block is congured as an OR function
-The output function is tied to the internal output of the logical OR function
When either process alarm is true (analog input value is greater than the alarm high set point,
the real-world output will be driven on.

Outputs
Outputs can perform various functions or actions in response to information provided by a
function such as: heat power from the output of the control, using a digital output to serve as
a profile event, drive a light on or off, unlocking a door or turning on a buzzer.
Assign an output to a function in the Output Menu or Digital I/O Menu. Then select which instance of that function will drive the selected output. For example, you might assign an output to respond to an internal output of a compare function or to retransmit the value of analog input 2 (instance 2).
You can assign more than one output to respond to a single instance of a function. For example, alarm 2 could be used to trigger a light connected to output 1 and a siren connected to
digital output 5.
What is a Profile
A profile is a set of instructions consisting of a sequence of steps. When a profile runs, the
controller automatically executes its steps in sequence. The step type determines what action the controller performs. Steps can change temperatures and other process values gradually over time, maintain the temperatures and process values for specific periods, or repeat a
sequence of steps numerous times. At each step the profile can activate or deactivate outputs
that control other equipment. Also a step can have the controller wait for specific conditions
before proceeding such as, waiting for a switch closure and/or a specific process value to be
detected by a sensor.
Input and output events are internal states that are used exclusively by profiles. The source of
an event input can come from a real-world digital input or an output from another function.
Likewise, event outputs may control a physical output such as an output function block or be
used as an input to another function.
Actions
Based on a given input (Digital I/O, Event output, Logic function, etc..) the Action function
can cause other functions to occur. To name a few, starting and stopping a profile, silencing
alarms, turn control loops off and placing alarms in non-alarm state.
A Conceptual View of RM Hardware Configurations
Due to the scalability and flexibility in the RM system a user has several options available in
the way that the hardware can be connected. Listed below are a few examples.
RMC Module Connected to a Remote User Interface (RUI) and a PC
In this configuration the RUI and PC are connected to the RMC module via Watlow's Standard
Bus where both will be able to talk directly to the RMC module. The PC running EZ-ZONE
Configurator software and the RUI can be used to configure and then monitor the RMC module.

RM System Connected to a Split Rail with OIT
In this configuration both the Inter-module Bus (backplane communications) and Standard Bus
are connected between rails to allow for remote capabilities. It is recommended that the split
rail connection not exceed 200 feet. In this configuration the OIT can communicate with all
modules (maximum 16 modules any combination with one Access module).
RM Control Module Connected to an OIT Running Modbus RTU
In this configuration the control module connected to the OIT is equipped with the Modbus
RTU protocol (RMCxxxxxxxxx1xx). It is important to
note that Modbus communications takes place between the OIT and the control it is connected to. All
modules must be set for the same protocol with the
Modbus wiring connected to one module.

Module Orientation
The picture below represents one of six possible RM modules. All six will have four slots on
the face (slot A, B, D, and E) and one on the bottom (slot C) not shown. All of these slots are
not always used on all modules. On the face of the module there is a button (white circle) under the Zone address (5) that when pushed and held has the following functions:
1. For any module, push and hold for approximately 2 seconds. The address will intensify indi-
cating that it can now be changed. Release and repeatedly press to change to the desired
unique address.
2. For the control module, if equipped with the Modbus protocol (RMCxxxxxxxxx1xx) pushing
and holding this button for approximately 6 seconds will cause the display to reflect P for
protocol. Releasing the button and then pushing it again (within 6 seconds), the display will
toggle between N (Modbus) and S (Standard Bus). Valid addresses for Modbus and Standard
bus range from 1 -16 (1-q, a is 10, b is 11, C is 12, d is 13, E is 14, f is 15, and h is 16).
The Access module is shipped at address J or 17.

As can be seen below the dimensions of the RMC module will change slightly based on the
type of connector used.
Note:
Modules should always be mounted vertically. For easy removal and placement of modules
it is recommended that there be a 76.2 mm (3.00 in) clearance on the top and bottom of
each module.

The picture on the right shows the Modular Backplane Connector, both front and rear view.
The rear view is bringing in to focus a metal clip. If the DIN rail is grounded the Modular
Backplane Connector and the module connected to it will be also (recommended).
Installing the Modular Backplane Connector
To install the backplane follow the steps below:
1. Hook backplane assembly to upper edge of DIN rail, (see rear view above, backplane hook
detail that mates with upper rail edge is circled)
2. Next, rotate back plane assembly downward to engage the lower edge of the rail. (Note:
Din Rail clipping distance ranges from
1.366 -1.389 inches. The back plane
assembly will not latch onto the rail
successfully if the rail is out of dimension).
3. For final positioning and locking, the
red tab is to be pushed upward to further engage the bottom edge of the
rail with an over center snap action
latch. (The red locking tab protrudes
from the bottom side of the back
plane assembly).
Note:
For easy removal and placement of
modules it is recommended that there
be a 76.2 mm (3.00 in) clearance on the top, bottom and front of each module.
Multiple modules are easily aligned and latched together. Each module includes matched mating geometry that facilitates accurate and consistent interconnections.
To install backplane connectors follow the steps below:
1. Attach individual modules to the rail separately.
2. Laterally slide the modules together until they
touch.
3. When the multi-module system is attached
and laterally positioned to the desired placement the locking tab should be engaged to
secure the control system to the rail.
Module Installation
In the picture to the right notice that the arrow is pointing at the top lip of the module (on
side).
To install modules on the backplane follow the steps below:
1. Slide the lip of the module over the top of the Modular Backplane Connector and then
push down on the rear of the module. The module will then slide over the two posts just
above the green connector (see pictures below).

As a switched DC output; this output is a constant current output delivering 750 mW, current limited to 400 mA. The internal supply does
have a maximum open circuit voltage of 22 VDC and minimum open
circuit voltage of 19 VDC. Pin Z7 is shared to all digital outputs. This
type of output is meant to drive solid state relays, not mechanical relays.
As an open collector output, use an external power supply with the
negative wired to B7, the positive to the coil of a pilot mechanical
relay and the other side of the coil wired to D_. Each open collector
output can sink 1.5 A with the total for all open collector outputs not
exceeding 8 amperes. Ensure that a kickback diode is reversed wired
across the relay coil to prevent damage to the internal transistor.

Note:
Do not leave a USB to EIA-485 converter connected to Standard Bus without power (i.e.,
disconnecting the USB end from the computer while leaving the converter connected on
Standard Bus). Disturbance on the Standard Bus may occur.
Note:
When connecting the USB converter to the PC it is suggested that the Latency Timer be
changed from the default of 16 msec to 1 msec. Failure to make this change may cause
communication loss between the PC running EZ-ZONE Configurator software and the control.
To modify Latency Timer settings follow the steps below:
1. Navigate to Device Manager on the PC.
2. Double click on Ports.
3. Right click on the USB serial port in use and select Properties.
4. Click the tab labeled Port settings and then click the Advance button.
Graphic below shows the advanced settings dialog box for the com port in use.
Do not route network wires with power wires. Connect network wires in daisy-chain fashion
when connecting multiple devices in a network. A termination resistor may be required. Place
a 120 Ω resistor across T+/R+ and T-/R- of the last controller on a network. Only one protocol
per port is available at a time: either Modbus RTU or Standard Bus.
Note:
Termination resistors when used, require a termination resistor at both ends of the network.
A Network Using Watlow's Standard Bus and an RUI/Gateway
The RMC module can be installed as a stand-alone module or it can be interconnected on the
DIN rail as shown below. When modules are connected together as shown, power and communications are shared between modules over the modular backplane
interconnection (red circle). Therefore, bringing the necessary
power and communications wiring to any one module (connector
in slot C) is sufficient. The modular backplane interconnect comes
standard with every module ordered and is generic in nature,
meaning any of the RM modules can use it.
Notice in the split rail system diagram that a single power supply
is being used across both DIN rails. One notable consideration
when designing the hardware layout would be the available power supplied and the loading
affect of all of the modules used. Watlow provides three options for power supplies listed below:
With regards to the modular loading affect, maximum power for each is listed
below:
1. RMCxxxxxxxxxxxx @ 7 watts / 14VA
2. RMEx-xxxx-xxxx @ 7 watts / 14VA
3. RMAx-xxxx-xxxx @ 4 watts / 9VA

It is recommended
that twisted pair
shielded wire be
used for each bus.
6. RMSx-xxxx-xxxx @ 7 watts / 14VA
So, in the split rail system diagram, the
maximum current draw on the supply
would be 38 Watts.

-1 RMC modules consumes 7W
-1 RME modules consumes 7W
-1 RMA module consumes 4W
-1 RMS modules consumes 7W
-1 RMH modules consumes 7W
-1 Remote User Interface consumes 6W
With this power requirement the second or third power supply could be used.
Another hardware configuration scenario that could present itself (graphic not shown) would
be a configuration that requires more than one supply. Lets make some assumptions pertaining to the split rail system diagram shown above. The power supply used is the 91W supply.
The top DIN rail now has the following modules:
-11 RME modules consumes 77W
As it can now be understood, the total power requirement exceeds 91W. In this case, another
power supply would be required. To incorporate another supply in this system simply disconnect pins 99 and 98 on the remote DIN rail and connect another appropriately sized power
supply to those same pins.
When using a split rail configuration ensure that the interconnections for the Inter-module Bus
and Standard Bus do not exceed 200 feet. Standard Bus and the Inter-module Buses are different protocols and both are required for split rail configurations. Without having both connected, communications between modules would not be possible.
Note:
Unit is not provided with a disconnect, use of an external disconnect is required. It should
be located in close proximity to the unit and be labeled as the disconnect for the unit.
Note:
Connecting power supplies in parallel is not allowed. When power consumption is greater
than 91 watts use a split rail configuration.
To better understand the menu pages that follow review the naming conventions used. When
encountered throughout this document, the word "default" implies as shipped from the factory. Each page (Operations, Setup, Profile and Factory) and their associated menus have identical headers defined below:
Header NameDefinition
DisplayVisually displayed information from the control.
Parameter NameDescribes the function of the given parameter.

If used in conjunction with an RMA module identifies unique parameters using either the DeviceNet or EtherNet/IP protocol (further explanation below).
If used in conjunction with an RMA module identifies unique parameters using Profibus DP protocol (further explanation below).

float = IEEE 754 32-bit
RWES = ReadableWritableEEPROM (saved)User Set (saved)
Display
When the RMC module is used in conjunction with the RUI (optional equipment) visual information from the control is displayed to the observer using a fairly standard 7 segment display.
Due to the use of this technology, several characters displayed need some interpretation, see
the list below:
1= 1ϯ= 7
, {= ci= io= ou= u
щ
2 = 28 = 8ц= dJ= JP= Pv= v
3 = 3q = 9E= EH= Kq= qФІ= W
4 = 40 = 0F= FL= Lr= ry= y
5 = 5џ = g= gЛЏ= MS= SZ= Z
Within this column notice that on occasion there will be numbers found within parenthesis.
This number represents the enumerated value for that particular selection. Range selections
can be made simply by writing the enumerated value of choice using any of the available
communications protocols. As an example, turn to the Control Module Setup Page and look at
the Analog Input menu and then the Sensor Type. To turn the sensor off using Modbus, simply
write the value of 62 (off) to register 368 and send that value to the control.
Note:
With firmware release 9.0 and above, two new parameters (Minimum and Maximum) were
added to allow ranges to be opened up to display full values. Unsigned integer may take
on a range of 0 to 65,535 and floating point may take on a range of -3.4E+38 to 3.4E+38.
Prior to revision 9.0, ranges were clamped to accommodate the seven segment LED display of the RUI. Both of these new parameters can be found in the Setup Page under the
Global Menu.
Communication Protocols
All modules come with the standard offering of Watlow's Standard Bus protocol used primarily for inter-module communications as well as for configuration using EZ-ZONE Configurator or
Composer software (free download from Watlow's web site (http://w ww.watlow.com). Along
with Standard Bus, the RMC module can also be ordered with Modbus RTU (only one protocol
can be active at any given time). The RMA module has options for several different protocols
listed below:
-Modbus RTU 232/485
-EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP
-DeviceNet
-Probus DP
To learn more about the RM Access module click on the link below. Once there simply type in
RM in the Keyword field. http://w ww.watlow.com/literature/manuals.c fm
Modbus RTU Protocol
All Modbus registers are 16-bits and as displayed in this manual are relative addresses (actual).
Some legacy software packages limit available Modbus registers to 40000 to 49999 (5 digits).
Many applications today require access to all available Modbus registers which range from
400001 to 465535 (6 digits). Watlow controls support 6 digit Modbus registers.
Note:
In this User's Guide all values shown representing Modbus addresses are added to 400,001
or 40,001 to acquire the absolute address.
For parameters listed as float, notice that only one (low order) of the two registers is listed,
this is true throughout this document. By default, the low order word contains the two low
bytes of the 32-bit parameter. As an example, look in the Controller Operations Page for the
Analog Input Value. Find the column identified in the header as Modbus and notice that it
lists register 360 under Map 1. Because this parameter is a float it is actually represented by
registers 360 (low order bytes) and 361 (high order bytes). The Modbus specification does not
dictate which register should be high or low order so Watlow provides the user the ability to
swap this order (Setup Page, Communications Menu) from the default low/high to high/low.
With the release of firmware revision 9.00 and above, new functions where introduced
into this product line. With the introduction of these new functions there was a reorganization of Modbus registers. Notice the reference to Map 1 and Map 2 registers in the column identified as Modbus Relative Address in each of the tables that follow. Select Map 1
or Map 2 in the Setup Page under the Communications Menu. This setting, Map 1 or Map 2,
will apply across the controller.
It should also be noted that most of the cells in the Modbus column contain wording pertaining to an offset for Map 1 and Map 2. Several parameters in the controller contain more than
one instance; such as, Profiles (25), Alarms (8), Analog inputs (4), etc... The Modbus register shown always represents instance one. Take for an example the Silence Alarm parameter
found in the Setup Page under the Alarm Menu. Instance one of Map 1 is shown as address
1766 and +60 is identified as the offset to the next instance for Map 1 and Map 2. If there was
a desire to silence the alarm for instance 3, simply add 120 to 1766 to find its address, in this
case, the instance 3 address for Alarm Silence is 1886 and write the value of 0 to it.
