RDER The Capio Plus IGBT Dimmer Rack is designed to be wired from the front. For this reason it makes sense to complete the connec- tions at the back of the rack first, and the ones at the front last. We recommend connecting the Line Power wiring and Grounds (if applicable) first, and the Load Neutral and Load Hot wires last.

Installation IGBT D IMMER ACKS & Operation Line Power Wiring (continued) CAUTIO : Failure to use proper torque when tightening set screws will cause premature failure of the equipment! CAUTIO : Refer to local and/or National Electrical Code® for cable specifications. Failure to use the proper cable can result in damage to the equipment or danger to persons.
Busing Racks Capio Plus IGBT Dimmer Racks may be bused together using the optional busing kit. To bus racks, you will need to remove the pan- els as described below before the racks are bolted together or secured to a wall.

VERVIEW Capio Plus IGBT Dimmer Racks can be configured directly at the RCM using the built-in LCD Menu. Please note that while the built-in menu will display all system status information, it has limited configuration capabilities. Only Guardian™ software provides an interface for configuring all IGBT Dimmer Rack options.

& Operation Guardian™ Overview Capio Plus IGBT Dimmer Racks can be configured using a Windows compatible personal computer running Guardian software. Only the Guardian method provides an interface for configuring all system options. Guardian software is available in two versions: Guardian SE (Setup Edition) Guardian SE is used to configure Capio Plus Systems.
Installation IGBT D IMMER ACKS & Operation Connecting a PC to the Capio Plus® System A Pathport system is a data manager that utilizes a distributed network of devices that are capable of adding data to, or reading data from the network. Because the system is distributed, every device has access to all of the information being carried on the system, and can be configured to use the data differently than any other device on the system.
ETUP Once installed on a PC, Guardian SE or NT will automatically discover and display a list of all Capio Plus IGBT Dimmer Racks connected to the network on the left of its display. Once all the units have been discovered, it is possible to Save the configuration. This will make it possible for Guardian SE or NT to detect a unit that is not responding in the future.
