However, provide adequate vehicle access to aid monitoring and maintenance. 1.4.3 Compliance with Hazardous Area Standards The ROC364 hazardous location approval is for Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D. The class, division, and group terms are defined as follows: Class defines the general nature of the hazardous material in the surrounding atmosphere.

Power supply and converter accessories can minimize the number of separate power sources required for an installation. The ROC364 can operate from either a 12-volt or a 24-volt nominal power source. If 24-volt transmitter power is required when operating on 12-volt power, the ROC364 requires an I/O Converter Card to be installed.
Table 1-1 and Table 1-2 provide information to assist in determining power supply requirements. Table 1-1 lists the power consumption of the ROC364 and the optional devices available for it. Include in the power consumption calculations of all device relays, meters, solenoids, radios, and other devices that receive DC power from the ROC (excluding those connected to the I/O modules).

ROC364 Instruction Manual 1.5.3 Totaling Power Requirements To adequately meet the needs of the ROC system, it is important to determine the total power consumption to size the solar panel and battery backup requirements accordingly. For total power consumption, add the device values in Table 1-1.

For proper startup, the minimum input voltage level must be 12.5 volts or more for a 12- NOTE: volt unit, and 25 volts or more for a 24-volt unit. Once the ROC364 has been successfully started, the ROC continues to operate normally over the specified input voltage range. If you are unsure of the input voltage setting for your ROC, refer to the paragraphs on setting the input voltage jumpers in Section 2.
SECTION 2 – MASTER CONTROLLER UNIT, I/O MODULE RACK, AND WIRING 2.1 Scope This section describes the core of the ROC364 components, including the Master Controller Unit (MCU), the FlashPAC module, wiring, the I/O Module rack, the backplate, and the front panel. Topics covered include:...

The NEC V25+ is a 16-bit Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) microprocessor featuring dual 16-bit internal data buses and a single 8-bit external data bus. The ROC364 can address up to one megabyte of memory and features high-speed direct memory access.
Page 17
ROC364 Instruction Manual Power fusing is accessible from the front of the MCU. Fuses are used for the input power and auxiliary power outputs. Terminal blocks provide terminations for the input and auxiliary output power. The source of auxiliary power is the input power, which can be a nominal 12 or 24 volts, depending on the setting of jumpers located on the MCU.
Page 18
Operating System Firmware 2.2.3 Diagnostic Inputs and Auxiliary Outputs The ROC364 MCU monitors the power input voltages, transmitter output voltage, and the board temperature with diagnostic Analog Inputs designated as “E” points by the configuration software. The inputs can be calibrated by using ROCLINK configuration software.

Page 20
ROC364 Instruction Manual 2.2.5 Backplate The ROC364 backplate is a mounting panel for an MCU and one or more I/O module racks. Backplates are available in three sizes to accommodate the indicated number of I/O racks: one rack, two racks, and three or four racks.
The following procedures describe installation of a ROC. If you are installing the ROC364 into a ROC enclosure, fasten the backplate to the mounting studs or tapped mounting holes provided in the enclosure. If you installing the ROC364 on a wall panel or in some other enclosure, refer to Figure 2-4 for the recommended size and location of mounting studs.

ROC364 Instruction Manual 2.3.2 Mounting an I/O Module Rack to a Backplate Each I/O module rack has a male and female connector on opposite sides of the rack. The first I/O module rack plugs directly into the MCU I/O module rack connector. Additional racks plug into each other.
ROC364 Instruction Manual 2.3.4 Installing a FlashPAC Module Use the following procedure to add a FlashPAC module. This procedure assumes the first-time installation of a FlashPAC module in an out-of-service ROC. For an in-service ROC, refer to the Section 2.5.10, Replacing a FlashPAC, on page 2-16.
Page 24
The watchdog timer resets the system when power voltage is not met or exceeds the limitations of the ROC. The two sets of AUX PWR OUT 2 terminals are internally connected in parallel. The output voltage and current supplied by these terminals is specified in Section 2.6, ROC364 Specifications, on page 2-20.
Page 25
ROC364 Instruction Manual The switches employed in the auxiliary outputs are solid-state relays and exhibit a voltage drop proportional to the current load, typically in the range of 0 to 2 volts dc. The relays can be controlled automatically using an FST that has been set up to determine the switching conditions. If a FlashPAC is installed, the auxiliary outputs are switched by using the Status parameter of Discrete Output Point Number E3 or E4.
ROC364 Instruction Manual 2.5 Troubleshooting and Repair The troubleshooting and repair procedures help identify and replace faulty boards, fuses, and FlashPACs. Refer to Section 3 for troubleshooting I/O modules or Section 4 for troubleshooting and replacing a communications card.

ROC364 Instruction Manual 3.4.1 Analog Input Loop Module The Analog Input Loop module monitors either loop current or output voltage from field devices. The module provides source power at terminal A for the loop. The AI Loop module operates by measuring the voltage at terminals B and C.
Page 41
ROC364 Instruction Manual 3.4.2 Analog Input Differential Module A schematic representation of the field wiring connections to the input circuit of the Analog Input Differential module is shown in Figure 3-4, Figure 3-5, and Figure 3-6. The Analog Input Differential module measures either output voltage (V or loop current (I) from externally-powered devices only.
Page 42
ROC364 Instruction Manual For current loop devices, scaling resistor R1 generates a voltage across terminals B and C that is proportional to the loop current. When connecting current loop devices, the value of R1 must be selected such that the 5-volts input limit of the module is not exceeded under maximum operating current conditions.
Page 43
ROC364 Instruction Manual For example, a 250-ohms scaling resistor would accommodate either 0 to 20 milliamps, or 4 to 20 milliamps current loop transmitters (the transmitter must be able to operate on 10 volts dc or be powered from another source). This translates to a maximum operating input voltage of 5 volts dc, which is the upper limit of the module.

ROC364 Instruction Manual The RTD module input can be calibrated before installing it in the field when short wire NOTE: runs will be used, but if the RTD module is used as a temperature input to a flow calculation, then the RTD should be calibrated at the same time as the pressure inputs.
Page 53
ROC364 Instruction Manual 3.4.15.2 Connecting RTD Module Field Wiring The RTD sensor connects to the RTD module with ordinary copper wire. To avoid a loss in accuracy, sensor wires should be equal in length, of the same material, and the same gauge. To avoid possible damage to the RTD module from induced voltages, sensor wires should be kept as short as possible.
Page 54
ROC364 Instruction Manual RTDs with four wires normally have the compensation loop separate from the active element loop to increase the accuracy of the probe. Various colors are used for the probe wires. For example, some probes have wire colors of red and white for the RTD element loop and black leads for the compensation loop, while other probes use two red leads for the active element loop and two white leads for the compensation loop.
