2 ControlNet Modular Repeater Medium-distance Fiber Module About The Fiber Module Use this module when a medium-distance (distances of 3000m/9843ft) fiber link is required between two ControlNet products. This fiber link provides ground isolation between nodes and is less susceptible to noisy environments than traditional cooper media. Note: The distance that can be supported is dependent on the quality of the fiber, number of splices, and connectors. The total loss of the fiber link must be less than 13.3 db. Typical systems of greater than 3000m are possible. The module provides: two fiber channels activity LED indicators for each fiber channel The figure below identifies the components of the module: Indicators Protective caps Channel 1 fiber port Module locking tab Channel 2 fiber port Right side backplane connector with protective cover The left side of the module (not shown here) also contains a backplane connector. 30042 M

4 ControlNet Modular Repeater Medium-distance Fiber Module Mounting The Fiber Module To mount the module on the DIN rail: 1. Position the module on a 35 x 7.5mm DIN rail at a 30 o angle. 30074 M 2. Hook the lip on the rear of the module onto the top of the DIN rail, and rotate the module onto the rail. 30074 M
ControlNet Modular Repeater Medium-distance Fiber Module 5 3. Press the module down onto the DIN rail until flush. The locking tab should snap into position and lock the module to the DIN rail. 4. If the module does not snap into position, use a screwdriver or similar device to move the locking tab down while pressing the module flush onto the DIN rail. Release the locking tab to lock the module in place. If necessary, push up on the locking tab to lock.
6 ControlNet Modular Repeater Medium-distance Fiber Module 5. Remove the protective backplane cap as shown in Removing the Protective Caps on page 7. 6. Once attached to the DIN rail, slide modules to the left to mate with the repeater adapter or another repeater module. 30043 M! ATTENTION: Make certain that the adapter and repeater modules are secured together with DIN rail anchors. Failure to do so may result in the loss of communications and/or cause damage to the modules. The total number of modules that can be attached to the repeater adapter can not exceed four or the total power consumption of the modules can not exceed 1.6A @ 5VDC, whichever comes first. Important: If you exceed the module or power limit, you may cause damage to the repeater adapter and modules. Important: If this is the right most module, a DIN rail latch must be used on the right side of the fiber module. 7. Connect the module wiring as shown in Wiring The Fiber Module on page 8.
ControlNet Modular Repeater Medium-distance Fiber Module 7 Removing the Protective Caps 1. Remove the protective caps from the fiber channels that will be used. 2. Save the caps for future use. Protective backplane cap DIN rail Protective cap The left side of the module (not shown here) also contains a backplane connector 30049 M If: a channel is not going to be used another module will be connected to the right backplane connector a module will not be connected to the right backplane connector Then: keep protective caps on channels to protect unit from dust. remove the protective backplane cap and save cap for future use. leave the backplane cap attached.
8 ControlNet Modular Repeater Medium-distance Fiber Module Wiring The Fiber Module If only one channel is wired, you can use Channel 1 or Channel 2. To wire the module for Channel 1: 1. Connect to Receive ST. a. Align the knob of the ST cable connector with the groove of the ST module connector, and insert the connector into A. Channel 1 Channel 2 A B (transmit) (receive) 30044 M b. Twist the Receive ST connector until the bayonet lug is locked into place. 2. To connect to Transmit ST into B, repeat Step 1.
ControlNet Modular Repeater Medium-distance Fiber Module 9 To wire the module for Channel 2: 1. Repeat the steps for Channel 1 and refer to the following figure. 9904 RPA 9904 RPFM CH1 CH2 A B A B 9904 RPA 9904 RPFM CH1 CH2 A B A B OR Important: Important: Be sure the fiber connected to A(receive) on one 9904 RPFM is connected to B(transmit) on the other 9904 RPFM. You can use Channel 1 or Channel 2 on either card. Never connect the fiber cable between Channel 1 or Channel 2 on the same repeater module, even between channels from different modules on the same repeater.! Warning: Do not look directly into the fiber ports. Light levels may cause damage to eyesight.

12 ControlNet Modular Repeater Medium-distance Fiber Module CSA Hazardous Location Approval CSA certifies products for general use as well as for use in hazardous locations. Actual CSA certification is indicated by the product label as shown below, and not by statements in any user documentation. Example of the CSA certification product label To comply with CSA certification for use in hazardous locations, the following information becomes a part of the product literature for CSA-certified industrial control products. This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D, or non-hazardous locations only. The products having the appropriate CSA markings (that is, Class I Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D), are certified for use in other equipment where the suitability of combination (that is, application or use) is determined by the CSA or the local inspection office having jurisdiction. Important: Due to the modular nature of a programmable control system, the product with the highest temperature rating determines the overall temperature code rating of a programmable control system in a Class I, Division 2 location. The temperature code rating is marked on the product label as shown. Temperature code rating Look for temperature code rating here The following warnings apply to products having CSA certification for use in hazardous locations. ATTENTION: Explosion hazard Substitution of components may impair suitability for Class I, Division 2.! Do not replace components unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous. Do not disconnect equipment unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous. Do not disconnect connectors unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous. Secure any user-supplied connectors that mate to external circuits on a product using screws, sliding latches, threaded connectors, or other means such that any connection can withstand a 15 Newton (3.4 lb.) separating force applied for a minimum of one minute.
