RS485 connection or CANBUS J1939 connection to our generator management boards DST4601, DST4601PX, DST4400, etc. On all DIPOT models, the regulation of the Current Loop can be selected using three configurations of dip-switches: from 0 to +20 mA ...

J3 – PIN6: Ground (cable screens) Wiring Diagram: The DIPOT board has several dip switches, which let you set the specific functions of the device, the current loop value and the properties of the serial port. The SWE switch is an 8-way dip switch for setting the following specific functions of the product: ...

DIP 5(analog on CANBUS): enables/disables transmission via Can bus of the water temperature and oil pressure sensors connected to the analog inputs of the DIPOT module (connector J2). In the Can Bus version of the receiving device, the Can is always enabled, regardless of the state of this switch, if SWE dip 7 is ON (REMOTE CONTROLS).

As the output value increases so does the frequency of the flashing (50% on and 50% off) Led on with short intermittent flashes off (90% on 10% off): max. output value. The DIPOT board implements two analog inputs, which can be of two types depending on the model: Analog inputs 0..5V and 0..10V ...

Four settings can be adjusted on the device using the trimmers on the front: TR1 - RAMP: adjusts the linear increment ramp for the value/duration of the command; corresponds to the increment/decrement speed of the value with the respective controls enabled. Turning clockwise increases the rapidity of the increment, which decreases vice versa counter- clockwise.

With input UP inactive (open), the 0-5V digital input is acquired With input UP active (closed), the 0-10V digital input is acquired In voltage isolator mode the DIPOT lets you decouple, transfer, and reduce or increase the acquired voltage value.

To change mode, move SWC switch SW1, then turn the device off and on again. If the SWC switch isn't installed on the board, DIPOT can only function in the normal operating mode. Depending on the DIPOT version, you may have an RS485 communication interface or CANBUS interface isolated from the I/O and internal logic circuits;...

Modbus Address: The max. number of DIPOT boards on the same RS485 bus line is 16. The SWE dip lets you select the physical address of the DIPOT boards from a value of 1 to a value of 16 by suitably modifying the switches from 1 to 4 as in the following table Selecting Modbus address: Note that address 1 is obtained with all the switches (1 to 4) OFF.

0-5V input reading The CANBUS version of the DIPOT device can be interfaced to the CANBUS line with our boards DST4400, DST4601, DST4601PX, GC310, GC350 and GC500. The CANbus interface should not be powered from an outside source as it powered by a DC/DC source in the device.

For this application the DIPOT will be connected to the Engine CAN line of the Sices control boards (CANBUS line normally used to manage CanJ1939 engines). The SWE switch must also be set correctly: DIP 1-4 (Communication address): the communication address in the CANBUS version is fixed, so these switches can be left OFF.
