If a DOU is to be mounted onto a surface consisting of wood or other flammable material, it is the Installer’s responsibility to ensure that the installation is in full compliance with National and Local building and fire prevention regulations. GTI-PM-004-1018-GB Page 3 of 22...
Never put any items in the enclosure, it violates all Health & Safety rules. You will have received a GTI Product folder when the system was commissioned. Items such as the following, should be kept in the plastic wallet at the back of this folder.
GTI-FOC-10M insulator. The cable is available in 3, 6 and 10m lengths. The standard supplied length is 3m (GTI-FOC-3M). PORT1 This is the port to which the FOC connects. In the case of a DOU, it is connected to PORT1, which can be found on the Micro Board.
The use of special “low current” solenoids appears to be an attractive proposition, because either more stations can be run simultaneously, or a station can be made up of a number of these low current devices. However, these devices cannot be used in conjunction with DOU’s. GTI-PM-004-1018-GB Page 6 of 22...
Each wire in the control cable shaped like a "pig tail" Cable gland Cable gland Control cable Control cable Figure 1 Figure 2 By using the “Pig Tail” method, it is much easier to take current readings using a clamp meter without disturbing the wiring. GTI-PM-004-1018-GB Page 7 of 22...
The optional backup controller (BC) is connected to the CTRL terminal blocks (J11, J21, J31 and J41). Note that the polarity of these blocks is the opposite of the COURSE terminals. Always connect all the terminals of J11, J21, J31 and J41 to earth when BC is not available. GTI-PM-004-1018-GB Page 8 of 22...
Each DOU has two additional alarm inputs. These inputs are designed to be operated from external volt-free switches or relay contacts. An open-circuit input raises the alarm. Wiring is not required unless the corresponding alarm input is enabled in GTI (See Alarm inputs topic). ❶...
ON, the backup controller cannot be used • OFF, the backup controller can be used to water TRANSMIT Normally off. Flashes when the DOU transmits data to the PC RECEIVE Normally off. Flashes when the DOU receives data from the PC GTI-PM-004-1018-GB Page 10 of 22...
Downrate F1 to F4 to 2.5A when 40Vac output is selected in the corresponding CSG. Failure to comply will cause irreversible damage to the DOU. GTI monitors the status of fuses F1 to F4 and F6. Line (Surge) Protection Units The Line (Surge) Protection Units (LPU’s) can be replaced if they become damaged.

DOU as close as possible to the stations it controls. Shorter CSG cables have the following benefits: 1. Reduced labour and cable costs 2. Reduced potential volt-drop problems 3. Increased reliability 4. Maintenance and servicing becomes easier and therefore less expensive GTI-PM-004-1018-GB Page 14 of 22...
The example shows two DOU's that may be located at opposite ends of the site. Each DOU is located close to the area it controls. More DOU's could be connected to DOU 1 or 2 (See example Multiple DOU configuration above): GTI-PM-004-1018-GB Page 15 of 22...
Fibre-optic Port 2. Connection to the next controller. The rubber plugs must be left in position when the Port is not used Fibre-optic port number 1. Connects to the PC 64 Way connector Firmware chip. The details printed on this should ALWAYS match the details in ❸ above GTI-PM-004-1018-GB Page 16 of 22...
The first four switches set the DOU number. The selected number must correspond to the number given by GTI. All four switches must be set to the ON position for a single DOU system. Under normal circumstances the new settings are not effective until the RESET switch on the Micro Board has been pressed.
