FCC STATEMENT

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

AND

CANADIAN DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATIONS

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTS

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not

installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s

instructions, may cause interference to radio communication. It has been tested

and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance

with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to

provide reasonable protection against such interference when the equipment is

operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a

residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user at his own

expense will be required to take whatever measures may be necessary to correct the

interference.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for

compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emission from digital

apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of the Canadian Department of

Communications.

Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites

applicables aux appareils numériques de classe A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le

brouillage radioélectrique publié par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

1. Specifications

RS-232 ↔CURRENT LOOP INTERFACE CONVERTER

The RS-232 ↔Current Loop Interface

Converter (CL050) is a bidirectional

self-contained unit that enables the

interconnection of a digital

20/30/60mA unipolar current-loop

interface with an RS-232 interface. The

CL050 cannot be used with an analog

current loop (4 to 20 mA) or bipolar

current loop.

Current loop was designed to transfer

data in a noisy environ-ment with as

much integrity as possible. The

maximum distance that the CL050 can

be placed from other devices on the

current loop (see Chapter 1) is based

on using 24 AWG under ideal

conditions, with the CL050 designated

as the active device in a point-to-point

configuration.

The CL050 can act as either an active

or passive device on the current loop.

As an active device, the CL050 supplies

20, 30, or 60 ma loop current at 18

VDC for operation. As a passive device,

the CL050 will not supply loop current,

but it will operate with 20, 30, or 60 ma

unipolar current at up to 30 VDC.

WARNING!

Only one device on the current

loop may be active. If more than

one device is active, each of the

devices will be permanently

damaged.

Refer to Sections 4.1 and 4.2 for

instructions on testing the current loop

and connecting it to the CL050.

Switch selections allow for half-duplex

or full-duplex operation; 20, 30, or 60

mA loop current; and configuring the

CL050 as either DTE or DCE.

Two LEDs monitor data flow.

If you ordered the CL050A-R2, you

should have received cables with it.

A 220-volt power supply (CL050E) is

also available.

1. Remove the screw located at the

center of the bottom cover.

2. Remove the top cover.

3. Lift the back panel from its guide.

4. Insert the power supply receptacle

into the 4-prong plug (See Figure

7-1 on page 16. The 4-prong plug

is near W1). The receptacle

should be aligned so that the lip is

on the upward side. DO NOT

PLUG THE POWER SUPPLY

INTO AN AC OUTLET!

5. Test your current loop for active

devices. See Section 4.1 on page

11.

6. Connect your current loop to the

CL050. See Section 4.2 on page

12.

7. Insert the back panel into its

guide, making sure the power-

supply cable and current-loop

cable exit through the holes

provided for them.

8. Set switches SWA, SWB and SWC

to the desired positions. The

CL050 is shipped with SWA set to

Full-Duplex, Passive; SWB set to

20mA receive; 20mA transmit; and

SWC set to DTE. See Sections 4.3,

4.4, and 5.2, respectively, on pages

11 and 13 for more information

on these switches.

9. Replace the top cover.

10. Replace the screw.

11. Attach your RS-232C cable.

12. Plug the power supply into an AC

outlet. The CL050 is now ready

for operation.

4.1 Testing for Other Active Devices

on the Current Loop

You must test for an active device on

the current loop if you plan to have the

CL050 supply loop current.

WARNING!

Only one device on the

current loop may be active.

If more than one device is

active at the same time,

each device will be

permanently damaged.

There are two tests that you can run.

Either is sufficient.

4.1.1 LED T

EST

(1) Unplug the CL050 from the AC

outlet.

(2) Set the SWA switch to full duplex,

passive.

(3) Attach the T- of the 4-wire current

loop device (or “-” in a 2-wire current

loop) to R- of the CL050A.

(4) Attach the T+ of the 4-wire current

loop device (or “+” in a 2-wire current

loop) to R+ of the CL050A. See Figure

4-1 (4-wire current loop) or Figure 4-2

(2-wire current loop).

(5) Plug the CL050 into the AC outlet.
