Note A PanelMate unit could be damaged if it is connected to voltages outside the range of 18 to 30 VDC. The unit is fully protected against polarity reversal - it will not operate if the polarity is reversed. Note Power Conditioning may be required when the PanelMate Series 1000 is installed in areas where the power quality is poor.
Power Up the Unit Apply power to the unit. The PanelMate unit performs approximately 20 seconds of internal diagnostic checks. The screen will first display a listing of the diagnostic checks as it executes them. If there is a failure see Chapter 5. After the unit completes the diagnostics, it will run the demonstration program.
Execute Tests Select the template labeled "Execute Tests" with the TouchPanel located below the display and then depress the control button labeled "Execute". A new page of choices will appear. You can test the serial port, keypad, or display by selecting the appropriate template and then depressing the control button labeled "Execute".
If the test is not successful, the "Watch Dog Failed, Cycle Power to Reset" message will be displayed. A PanelMate unit that has failed should not be used and should be returned to Cutler-Hammer IDT for repair. Test Completion This completes the internal system diagnostics which are available for you to check- out your unit.
Enter Run Mode Run mode allows communication between the PanelMate unit and the PLC of your choice. Operation is determined by the configuration which has been downloaded to the PanelMate unit. The Run Mode lets you run the configuration downloaded to the PanelMate unit, and communicate with the PLC of your choice.
