The ASCO Catalog 5110 Serial Module (optional Accessory
72A) is required with 4000 Series, 7000 Series, or Series 300
Automatic Transfer Switches (ATSs) for serial communica­tions. With this option installed, the ATS Controller can
respond to requests (from ASCO devices) to send the status
of standard features and optional accessories. In addition, the
controller can receive remote commands to control the
operation of the ATS.

This manual explains how to install the Serial Module on
4000 Series, 7000 Series, and Series 300 ATSs only.

DANGER is used in this manual to warn of high

voltages capable of causin g shock, burns, or death.

For G–design 7ATB, 7ACTB, and 7ADTB Automatic
Transfer & Bypass–Isolation Switches a 9–foot serial cable
( 629798–004 ) must be ordered separately.

SERIAL MODULE INSTALLATION

With Accessory 72A Serial Module Catalog 5110 added
to 4000 Series, 7000 Series, and Series 300 Automatic
Transfer Switches (ATSs), real–time data can be accessed
through the serial interface. Refer to the installation
drawings provided and follow the steps below to install
the Serial Module.

De–energize the Normal and Emergency sources
before opening the enclosure. Place the engine
generator starting control in the OFF position.
Make sure the generator is not operating.

Mounting

The Serial Module mounts on a DIN rail directly under
theATScontroller. SeeFigure1andFigure2.

1. De–energize both Normal and Emergency sources that
feed the ATS. Then open the enclosure door and check
with a non–contact AC voltage detector.

2. Mou nt the DIN rail (supplied in the kit) onto two studs
(on the door) below the controller.

3. Install the Serial Module onto the DIN rail by hooking
the top of the module on the top of the DIN rail and
rocking it downward until it snaps in place. If you need
to remove the Serial Module, pull the release tab
underneath.

Connections

A short seri al cable connects the Serial Communication
Module to the Controller. If a Power Manager is present,
a long serial cable connects the Serial Communication
Module to the Power Manager. Refer to the wiring
diagram provided. The wiring must be performed by an
experienced licensed electrician in accordance with the
National Electrical Code and all local codes.

1. Install the 10–inch serial cable (from the kit) between
the ATS controller receptacle (J7 on 4000 & 7000
Series, J4 on Series 300) and t he Serial Module
receptacle J1.

2. If a Power Manager is present, connect the 4–foot
serial cable between the Power Manager receptacle J5
and the Serial Module receptacle J2.* See Figure 2.

* A 9–foot serial cable (629798–004) is required

for G7ATB, G7ACTB, G7ADTB.

3. Prepare and connect the specified communication
cable (Table A) to the Serial Module J4 terminal plug
as listed in Tabl e B and shown in Figure 3.

4. When daisy chainingmultiple ATSs, the ATSthat is the
farthest distance from the controlling device must have
a termina tion resistor. The Seria l Module has a
built–in terminatio n resistor that can be connected by
moving two DIP switches to ON. See Figure 4.

Setting the ATS Address

Set the communication address in the ATS controller.
Follow either the 4000 & 7000 Series procedure or the
Series 300 procedure below. Use Table D to record the
address and other ATS information.

4000 & 7000 Series ATSs

1. Refer to Group 5 Controller User’s Guide 381333–126
pages 2–8 and 2–9 for how to set a unique address for
this Automatic T r ansfer Switch.

2. If ASCObus II protocol is used (such as used with VPi
computer software) and a Pow er Manager is included
with the ATS, the Power Manager must be
programmed with the same
the ATS Group 5 Controller connected to the Serial
Module.

However, if ModbusprotocolisusedandaPower
