Dimensions and Mounting Instructions for the Model 2700 The Model 2700 Automation Controller is provided with mounting ears, allowing them to be easily mounted to a flat surface (for example, an NEMA-rated electrical enclosure) with four mounting bolts. You should follow the guidelines described in this installation guide to ensure a successful design.
Inserting Modules into the Controller The Model 2700 controller accepts a variety of plug-in modules. You insert the modules into one of the slots of your Model 2700 controller. Any combination of modules, subject to system limits, may be inserted into the controller. The plug-in CPU has its own slot and is not counted as part of the total number of slots in a controller.

Model 2700 Power Connections Connecting AC Power The Model 2700 contains an internal power supply which provides two mutually- isolated voltages (+5 VDC and +24 VDC) for the operation of the controller. Also included are two LED indicators located on the CPU for these voltages and a power ON- OFF switch.
NOTE: Do not make any external connections to either the +5 V power supply or its common, as an increased susceptibility to electrical noise may result.

Status Light Description The status light on the Model 2700 can indicate one of the following conditions: • Software fault: A periodic flashing light on the 2701E CPU indicates a program software fault. This means the controller was unable to execute due to an applica- tion problem within the program.
RS-232 port or on an Ethernet network. Using the RS-232 Port for Controller Communications The RS-232 port on your Model 2700 controller provides a means for both programming and data communications via a personal computer using Quickstep. The controller is also equipped with a built-in protocol allowing direct computer communications with the controller’s RS-232 port.
