2 Installation Location of the unit The RPM70/RPM80 and SP70/SP80 instruments should be mounted with special regard to the unit’s environmental protection, temperature range and cable length. Refer to the Specifications chapter. Avoid mounting the unit where it is easily exposed to sunlight, as this may unintendedly overheat the unit. For RPM70 and SP70 a weather cover is included and the cover should be put on when the unit is not in use.
Cable connection and interface Signal input, network and power supply are wired to the enclosed terminal block that is to be plugged in on the rear side. 1 The instrument is delivered with a 0.3 m SimNet cable with a standard SimNet plug in both ends. One plug must be cut off and the wires connected to terminals 3 through 6 according to the color codes shown below.
Securing the cables Use the enclosed tie wrap to secure the cables to the instrument. Interconnecting instruments Interconnect a series of instruments by using a SimNet power cable with termination and T-joiners as illustrated below. Instrument Supply 12-24V SimNet 12V Supply (Red disk) SimNet T-joiner SimNet T-joiner SimNet T-joiner If the instruments are connected to other SimNet compatible products, refer to the manual for those products.
Installation setup After installation, the system must be configured to read the preferred input signal before the instrument is ready for use. The Installation Setup is accessed as shown in the illustration.
3 Operation Turning indicators on The indicators have no power key, and will be running as long as power is applied. When power is applied to the system the instrument will operate in the main mode. After approximately 3 seconds the instrument is operative. Before the instrument is ready to operate the default settings should be checked and changed if other values are preferred. Refer to the Changing the default settings chapter. Using the keys The instrument is operated by the 2 keys on the front.
SELECT Backlighting The backlighting is adjusted by pressing the Light key when the instrument is in normal operation. The light setting affects the keys and the backlight as shown in the table: LIGHT LEVEL KEYS BACKLIGHT 0 Low Off 1-7 Steps Steps 8 Medium Off 9 High Off Level 8 and 9 are for bright daylight. The instrument will return to normal operation 1 second after the last key press.
Maintenance The IS70/IS80 instruments are “repair by replacement” units, and the operator is therefore required to perform only a very limited amount of preventive maintenance. If the unit requires any form of cleaning, use fresh water and a mild soap solution (not a detergent). It is important to avoid using chemical cleaners and hydrocarbons such as diesel, petrol etc. If a weather cover is available this should be put on when the unit is not in use.

4 Changing the default settings General The factory default settings may all be changed in the User setup, accessed as shown in the illustration. Refer also to the Operation flow chart in the Basic Operation chapter. Light bank selection The light bank function is used to globally control light settings for a group of units that are connected via the SimNet network. By assigning several units to the same group, the light adjustment on one unit will be effective on the rest of the members in the same group.
