AMX UPC20 Plus Quick Start Manual

ATTENTION: READ THIS FIRST!
For more detailed installation, configuration, programming, and operating instructions,
refer to the UPC20+ Universal Power Controller Instruction Manual available on-line at
www.amx.com.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your UPC20+ (FG672), basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
!
1. Read and understand all instructions before using. Close supervision is
necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Do not leave appli-
ance unattended while in use.
2. Care must be taken as burns can occur from touching hot parts.
!
3. The appliance switch is provided with the symbols 0 indicating off and 1
indicating on. The symbols O and | may be used for this purpose.
4. Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or if the appliance has been
dropped or damaged - until it has been examined by a qualified serviceman.
5. Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or contact hot surfaces.
6. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating at least equal to
that of the appliance should be used. Cords rated for less amperage that the
appliance may overheat.
7. Always unplug appliance from electrical outlet before cleaning and servicing and
when not in use. Never yank cored to pull plug from outlet. Grasp plug and pull to
disconnect.
8. Let appliance cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around
appliance when storing.
9. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse this appliance in water or
other liquids.
10. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this appliance, but take it
to a qualified serviceman when service or repair work is required. Incorrect
reassembly can cause electric shock when the appliance is used subsequently.
11. The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by the manufacturer
may cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
12. Connect this appliance to a grounded outlet.
13. Disconnect this unit from its source of supply before replacing any part.
14. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to plug into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any
way.

UPC20+ Wiring Requirements
In the United States, the UPC20+ must be wired by an authorized electrician in
accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1987, as well as all local
codes.
In the European community, the UPC20+ unit must be wired by an authorized
electrician in accordance with all applicable European codes.
A readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated into the fixed wiring.
An insulated earthing conductor that is identical in size, insulation material and
thickness to be earthed and unearthed branch circuit supply conductors, except that it
is green with or without one or more yellow stripes, is to be installed as part of the
branch circuit which supplies the unit or system. The earthing conductor described is
to be connected to earth at the service equipment, or supplied by a separately derived
system, at the supply transformer or motor generator set.
Product Information
Using Motor Control mode, the UPC20+ output alternates between two relays,
providing a brief pause in-between relay contacts, to protect the motor. A timing
adjustment potentiometer is user adjustable for automatic release of the relays. (The
range is 0 to 90 seconds). 1-, 2-, and 3- button control modes are selectable.
In Power Control mode, the UPC20+ provides power control for two independent
circuits with a combined total load of 20 Amps. Single-button momentary/latching and
2-button latching modes are selectable.
• Momentary Power Relay contacts are closed only as long as a closure from
input to common is maintained.
• Latching Power Relay contacts are toggled (from open to closed and closed to
open) each time a closure from input to common is momentarily pulsed.
Note: The UPC20+ cover contains information on high voltage wiring, low voltage
wiring, and DIP switch settings.
The UPC20+ will work the NXC-I/O10 input/output control card.
