1.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Multi-Purpose Training Panel provides an effective, low-cost method to introduce the principles of operation
and configuration of the Model 353 Process Automation Controller to engineering, operations, and maintenance
personnel. Actual process operating conditions can be simulated providing a "hands-on" experience without
affecting an on-line process. No connection to a real-world process is required to use the full range of control
features available with a Model 353.
The PN15990-53 Training Panel allows use of all Model 353 features but does not provide for an Ethernet
connection. The PN 15990-91 Training Panel retains all of features provided in the PN 15990-53 Training Panel and
adds an Ethernet cable and connector (for Ethernet communication, the installed controller must include the Ethernet
option board).
The Training Panel consists of a standard controller case with a specially designed front panel. Controls, connectors,
and displays on the front panel are used to select and adjust inputs to and outputs from the controller. Model 353
assemblies are either ordered separately or supplied from the user's spare parts stock. Typically, assemblies are
installed in the case by the user. An MPU Controller board and Display Assembly are required. An I/O Expander
board, Real Time Clock/Configuration Backup board, and communication option boards can be added as needed,
depending upon the requirements of the process simulation. Refer to the Model 353 User's Manual, UM353-1, for
board options and installation procedures.
The Panel is completely pre-wired and self-contained. Any Model 353 controller can be easily installed in the
Training Panel by inserting the circuit board assemblies and attaching the Display Assembly. Typically, 120 Vac
power is provided via a standard 3-prong, grounded plug. A 24 Vdc Model 353 can be used; Section 2.4 Electrical
Power Input, in this manual, and UM353-1 describe the case rear terminal connections needed for operating from a
24 Vdc power source.
