Protection Fuses (2) The unit relies on dual fuse protection.
Although it is normally delivered as part of a complete system, already installed and pre-cabled in a new rack or cabinet, STATE-200 Units can also be ordered separately, as an addition to an existing installation. 3.1 Preliminary considerations for installation in a 19” rack or cabinet The following guidelines will help you plan your equipment rack configuration: Allow sufficient clearance around the rack or cabinet for maintenance.
3.4 Cabling the STATE-200 Unit Warning - Danger Caution The STATE-200 Unit power supply and grounding connection should be installed in accordance • with national and local electrical code. To ensure protection, the chassis grounding wire must be of a heavier gauge than the grounding •...
ZOOM controler. Fifteen different types of modules are available for processing distinct types of signals. A STATE-200 unit can accept up to 16 I/O modules. Each port is wired through a 7-position removable mini-connector which allows connection of signal input, shield, and +24VDC output for powering the measuring chain.
3.5.2 Module Installation or Replacement To replace or add a new module, the STATE-200 must be turned off, all connectors unplugged, and the casing extracted from the instrument rack and opened. 1. To remove a connector from an input port or the power input port, loosen the two screws securing the connector to the socket.
Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild water-based detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvent. Clean the exterior of the STATE-200 unit only. Do not apply cleaner directly to unit, or allow liquids to enter or spill on the unit.
5.2 STATE-200 Software Verification To fully validate the operation of a STATE-200 unit, you must first start the ZOOM Suite software and create a configuration according to the specifics of the current installation. Refer to the ZOOM Suite Software User Manual.

To solve the problem, you first need to find the STATE-200 address in the DHCP. As an example, we used the Windows Server 2003 DHCP server. Select Control Panel -> Administrative Tools->DHCP: In the example above, only one address is assigned to a STATE-200 unit. However, in a longer list, a combi- nation of elements is used for identification;...
Once the IP address assigned to the STATE-200 unit has been located in the list of all the addresses assigned by the DHCP server, use the ZOOM Configuration program to verify the ZOOM configuration. Refer to the ZOOM 6 Look Plug-in User’s Guide.
To correct the configuration, use the ZOOM Configuration user interface, and change the type of module. Consult the STATE-200 hardware configuration form delivered with the unit.
