1. Safety instructions

Observe the information of the description. Non-observance of the notes, operation which is not in
accordance with use as prescribed below, wrong installation or handling can result in serious harm
concerning the safety of persons and plant.
The instructions are for authorised persons according to the EMC and low voltage guidelines. The
controllers must be installed and commissioned by a skilled electrician (programmer or service
technician).
This description is part of the unit. It contains texts and drawings concerning the correct handling of the
controller and must be read before installation or use.
Since the unit has to be supplied with an external DC voltage (12/24 V) it must be ensured that the
external voltage is generated and supplied according to the criteria for safety extra-low voltage (SELV) as
this is supplied without further measures to the connected controller, the sensors, and the actuators.
The wiring of all signals in connection with the SELV circuit of the unit must also comply with the SELV
criteria (safe extra-low voltage, safe electrical separation from other electric circuits).
If the supplied SELV voltage has an external connection to ground (SELV becomes PELV) the
responsibility lies with the user and the respective national regulations for installation must be complied
with. All statements in these operating instructions refer to the unit the SELV voltage of which is not
grounded.
The terminals may only be supplied with the signals indicated in the technical data or on the unit label.
Only potential-free contacts or potentiometers can be connected to the Mini DIN sockets of the simulator.
The unit can be operated within a wide temperature range according to the technical specification
indicated below. Due to the additional self-heating the housing walls can have high perceptible
temperatures when touched in hot environments.
In case of malfunctions or uncertainties please contact the manufacturer.

2. Function and features

The simulator for the ecomat 100 control system type R 360 has been designed for testing application
software.
The unit has been designed in a way that it can be used for all input and output configurations of the
ecomat R 360 control system.
Important: When used for other controllers the diagnostic box or the other controller can be destroyed.
