ControlWave GFC IS Communication Interface Manual (CI-CW-GFC-ISTRAN) Chapter 1 – Introduction The ControlWave GFC Intrinsically Safe IStran Communication Interface (IStran) allows an intrinsically safe ControlWave Gas Flow Computer / Corrector (CW-GFC-IS) to communicate with a device located in a Division 2 or non-hazardous area. Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL) approves the IStran interface with a CW-GFC-IS unit when you use it with approved intrinsically safe battery power/solar panel power, or when the CW-GFC-IS receives... -

ControlWave GFC IS Communication Interface Manual (CI-CW-GFC-ISTRAN) Figure 2-1. Setting Jumper HJP1 2.1.2 Non-Hazardous Interface Typically you connect the non-hazardous interface to a radio or modem located with the IStran assembly in a non-hazardous or Division 2 rated area. Table 2-4 identifies each connector position and the corresponding signal name, and provides a brief description of each I/O point on the non-hazardous interface. - Page 14 ControlWave GFC IS Communication Interface Manual (CI-CW-GFC-ISTRAN) Table 2-5 provides the characteristics of the non-hazardous interface.

Page 15: Switched & Unswitched Modes
ControlWave GFC IS Communication Interface Manual (CI-CW-GFC-ISTRAN) Figure 2-2. Setting Jumper NJP1 2.2 Switched & Unswitched Modes You can configure each IStran interface independently to operate in switched or unswitched mode. In switched mode, the TX drivers can enter a high-impedance state to reduce power consumption. The outputs transition smoothly to and from the high-impedance state. -
Page 16: Configuring The Hazardous Interface For Switched Mode
ControlWave GFC IS Communication Interface Manual (CI-CW-GFC-ISTRAN) 2.2.1 Configuring the Hazardous Interface for Switched Mode To configure the hazardous interface for switched mode, place the supplied shorting jumper in the HJP1 position marked SW (short HJP1 pins 1 and 2 as shown in Figure 2-1). If you don’t install a jumper at HJP1 the hazardous interface defaults to switched mode. - Page 17 ControlWave GFC IS Communication Interface Manual (CI-CW-GFC-ISTRAN) When hazardous interface signal input HRX3 is at a high (positive) level, NPOUT turns on and can supply power to an external device. When HRX3 is at a low (or negative) level, NPOUT turns off. You determine the voltage drop between NPIN and NPOUT by multiplying the NPOUT load current by the NPIN to NPOUT on-resistance.
