REFERENCE MANUALS
577014-073 TLS-450PLUS Console Site Prep And Installation Manual

The key to a successful TLS-450PLUS retrofit installation is the careful removal of the old console and wiring. The first concern is safety, so if the console is in a public area of the store, barricade off the work area to prevent injuries.

1. Prior to removing the TLS-350 console, print out the current TLS-350 console's setup configuration that will be used to program the TLS-450PLUS.
2. Turn off, tag and lockout the breaker that supplies power to the TLS-350 console.
3. Remove the door screws (with a T-15 Torx driver), open the console and unplug the power connector in the power bay. It's always a good idea to use a multimeter to confirm that the circuit is dead before pulling these wires through the console knockout.
4. Verify all Intrinsically safe wires are labeled and their polarity (if applicable) noted before removing them. Verify all non-intrinsically wiring connections are labeled before removing them.
5. Unplug the high and low voltage connectors from the console. After removing the wires from the connectors, plug them back into the modules.
6. Disconnect and label all wires from the communication modules.
7. Remove both ground wires, the chassis ground and the barrier ground, from the grounding lugs in the console.
8. Loosen the power conduit ring, remove it and pull the wires through the knockout. Once both the high and low voltage wires have been removed, remove the console from the wall. Keep the mounting screws if possible because the mounting holes for the TLS-450PLUS match the mounting holes for the TLS-350.
9. Remove the power and ground wires from the wire bundle if they were run in the same conduit with the High Voltage wires. A separate power conduit will need to be run to the TLS-450PLUS.

Mounting The Console

The TLS-450PLUS has the same mounting bolt pattern and approximate weight as the TLS-350. One major consideration for the placement of the TLS-450PLUS is to put the screen at eye level so it can be seen and touched.

The console is pre-punched for 3/4", 1" and 1-1/4" knockouts for Module Bay slot wiring access. Use a punch, not a drill to remove a knockout. Make sure that the conduit fitting ring is tight (see Figure 1). Never drill holes, expand existing holes or modify the enclosure in any way. Modifying the enclosure may invalidate all certifications and or warranties.

Figure 1. TLS-450PLUS Console Dimensions and Designated Conduit Knockouts

Opening the TLS-450PLUS doors

1. Remove the both left and right door screws (with a T-15 Torx screwdriver) and swing open both doors to the left (see Figure 2).
   

Installing Module Bay Modules

The TLS-450PLUS doesn't have pre-assigned slots for the Module bay modules so use any of the four slots to accommodate intrinsically safe (USM) or non-intrinsically safe (I/O, MDIM, etc.) modules. Since the Module Bay modules can be installed in any of the 4 slots, install them where it makes the most sense for conduit connections.

USM MODULES

USM wiring inputs are intrinsically safe and conduit containing this wiring must enter above or below the slot in which the USM module(s) is installed.

1. Figure 3 illustrates acceptable intrinsically-safe USM module positions in the Module Bay of the console. After installing the USM module in the console, loosen the connector input screws, insert the wires and tighten well.
2. Make sure to terminate the ground shields to the ground lug on the module. The other end at the probe or sensor isNOT grounded.
3. Write in the device name for each wire connection on the connector block in the module's wiring label attached to the inside of the door as you make a connection.
4. Make sure to loop the wire neatly under the lip of the module. This will keep wires from interfering with the door when it closes.
5. Avoid too much excess wire in the console. Pull unneeded wire back into the wiring trough if necessary.

I/O, MDIM OR LVDIM MODULES

1. Figure 3 illustrates acceptable non-intrinsically safe module positions in the Module Bay of the console. After installing the I/O, MDIM or LVDIM module, loosen the connector input screws, insert the wires and tighten well.
2. Write in the device name for each wire connection on the connector block in the module's wiring label attached to the inside of the door as you make a connection.
3. Make sure to loop the wire neatly under the lip of the module. This will keep wires from interfering with the door when it closes.
4. Avoid too much excess wire in the console. Pull unneeded wire back into the wiring trough.
5. Close the right door and replace and tighten the top and bottom screws of the door when you have finished with the Module Bay wiring connections.

Installing Comm Modules

PRECAUTIONS AGAINST STATIC ELECTRICITY

Before removing electronic components from their antistatic bags read the following static electricity precautions.

1. Before handling any components, discharge your body's static electric charge by touching a grounded surface or using a grounding strap.
2. Do not remove parts from their antistatic bags until ready to install them.
3. Do not lay parts on the antistatic bags! Only the insides are antistatic.
4. When handling parts, hold them by their edges and their metal mounting brackets.
5. Avoid touching components or edge connectors that plug into slots and wear the antistatic wrist strap (Part No. 576010-908) included in your component replacement kit.
6. Never slide parts over any surface.
7. Avoid plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam in the work area

COMM MODULES

Table 1 lists Comm Modules for the TLS-450PLUS designed and manufactured by Veeder-Root.

Table 1. Communication Bay Modules

COMM MODULE SLOTS

1. The Comm Bay is divided into 5 slots numbered from 1 to 5 going from left to right. Only slots 1-3 are available for user-selectable Comm Modules (Figure 4). Slots 4 and 5 are fixed and can not be changed (see Figure 5).
   
   Figure 4. TLS-450PLUS Console - Selectable Comm Modules
   
   Figure 5. TLS-450PLUS Console - Fixed Comm Modules

COMM MODULE PORT CONFIGURATIONS

To avoid attaching a Comm Module cable to a non-configurable (NC) port, identify the configurable (C) ports of any Comm Module being installed. Also verify the Comm cable port connections to Comm Modules in slots 4 and 5. Record all Comm port connections for use at setup.

User-selectable Comm Port configurations will depend on features ordered. Slots 1-3 (Figure 4) can be used for any combination of Comm Modules found in Table 2 or Table 3 as appropriate.

Table 2. Configurable (C)/Non-Configurable (NC) Ports for Selectable Comm Modules (Comm Bay Slots 1 - 3 Only)

If using a Tri-Comm Module (slots 1 or 2 only), refer to Figure 6 for Tri-Comm Module locations and Table 3 for TriComm Module port configurations.

Table 3. Tri-Comm Module Port Configuration

INSTALLING COMM MODULES

1. Using a T-15 Torx driver, loosen the screw securing the Comm Module clamp until you can remove the clamp (see Figure 3).
2. Remove the blank cover from underneath the desired comm slot by punching it into the console or by using pliers to remove it from the inside of the console. Be careful not to damage any internal components in the process of removing the blank cover.
3. Place the new Comm Module in the slot. Align the edge connector on the back of the board in the center of the vertical connector on the Comm Backplane board and push in the module firmly as far as it can go. The sheet metal bracket of the Comm Module slides into the slot and is keyed in the front where the Comm Module clamp holds it down.
4. After all Comm Modules are installed, replace the Comm Module clamp and the screw that secures it.
5. Close the left door and replace and tighten the top and bottom screws of the door.

CONNECTING A LAPTOP TO THE TLS-450PLUS

Connect your laptop to one of the TLS-450PLUS Comm port using one of the methods shown in the in Figure 7 below.

Figure 7. Connecting Laptop to TLS-450PLUS for Serial Communication

If using a USB to DB9 Serial adapter cable (P/N 576040-170), or equivalent, you will need to follow the instructions shipped with the adapter cable.

Connecting The Power Wires To The Console

This section concludes the TLS-450PLUS retrofit installation by connecting power to the console.

1. With the left of the console open, remove the two screws that attach the power connector cover plate (see Figure 3).
2. With the cover removed, notice the power connector already attached to the console. This is where the power input wires connect.
3. Next, remove the knockouts for console power and install the conduit from the power trough to the console. If local codes require rigid conduit, plan carefully before knocking out these holes. The console is prepunched for ½" conduit. This should be large enough since the only wires going through this conduit will be for L1, neutral, panel ground and earth ground, and possibly 1 relay. Refer to manual 577014-073 for proper wire gauge.
4. Next strip the ends of the power wires brought into the console. Referring to Figure 8 and to the locations printed where the power connector attaches to the console, attach the L1, panel ground and neutral wires to the connector block.
5. Next, attach the barrier ground (sized as shown in Figure 8) to the grounding clamp.
   
   Figure 8. Wiring AC Power to the TLS-450PLUS Console

POWER WIRING NOTES:

• Barrier ground wire requirements:
  • For UL/cUL approved systems, use a 12 AWG barrier ground wire
  • For ATEX/IECEx approved systems, use a 4 sq. mm barrier ground wire
• Use an ohmmeter to check the electrical resistance between the console's metal case and the power panel's earthing ground wire connection at the 'known good ground'. It should read less than 1 ohm.
• Connect the power supply wires in the power panel to a separate dedicated circuit.
• Electrical rating of power input - 120 or 240 Vac, 50/60 Hz, 2 A maximum.
• See Figure 1 for locations of power conduit knockouts into the console. Power wiring must enter the console through designated knockouts.

6. Plug in the power connector and route the wires so that the cover plate will conceal them when installed.
7. Replace the power connector cover plate using both screws and close the bay door.
8. Reconnect the communication wires to the appropriate comm cards. Wires which are not used on the TLS450PLUS should be pulled back into the wiring trough. If necessary, seal up the power trough.
9. Return to the panel, remove the lock-out/tag-out device and label the breaker with the supplied self-adhesive label. Re-energize the circuit and start up the unit.

After installing the TLS-450PLUS console follow the appropriate initial startup procedure below:
