  • Page 4: Description

    AC power for a system, and special time-delay circuit breakers are not required: you only need to ensure that the steady-state currents of all products plugged into the XQ515 are within the 15 Amp rating.
  • Page 5: Features

    The XQ515 has a total of 14 receptacles: three sequenced banks of four, and two always on. Each receptacle is rated for a maximum load of 15 amps but the total load of the XQ515 must not exceed 15 Amps. Plug the equipment cords into the receptacle banks as needed to turn on equipment in the required sequence.
  • Page 6: Remote Control Connections

    3.2.1 Up/Down XQ515uence Control Inputs The XQ515 can be controlled by a DC voltage in the range 5V to 30V, by a contact closure (such as a relay), or by a switch. In this manual the terms “momentary” and “latching” are used when describing switches.
  • Page 7: Over-Ride Input

    “over-ride” and the negative wire to “common”. 3.2.3 External LED Connections The XQ515 is able to drive external LEDs or other signaling devices through its 12V dc output which can provide up to 40mA of current. External LEDs connected in this way will mimic the red LED on the front panel.
  • Page 8: Quick Start

    This section is intended to allow users with a simple straightforward system incorporating a single XQ515 to get up and running with the minimum of effort. If this is not the case then skip this section and go directly to the section on detailed programming (section 5). If you are going to follow the quick start instructions, you only need to perform the following steps since the unit has been shipped with default settings suitable for basic operation.
  • Page 9 Although the above steps are all that are required to get the XQ515 running, you may want to take a look at the following programming options to see if you want to make use of any of these functions.
  • Page 10: Programming

    The instructions and notes that follow are in the same order as the actual menu items. 5.1 Power XQ515uencing Control The following eight menu items must be set before the XQ515 can be used in a system. These determine the function and delay times of the XQ515uenced banks, and the type of control input: DC voltage, contact closure or switch.
  • Page 11: Over-Ride Control

    5.2 Over-Ride Control The XQ515 has an optional over-ride and there are four menu items that control this function. If you do not require an over-ride, you can skip the next four menu items since units are shipped with this function disabled. The over-ride can be used for such purposes as fire safety over-ride, and can be set to either force the unit on or force it off when an over-ride signal occurs.
  • Page 12: Auxiliary Relay

    The aux relay can be used to provide confirmation to a central controller, to control another power distribution product, or for controlling another XQ515 when two or more are ganged or cascaded together. Please see the applications section for full details on setting up an expanded system.

    5.6 Out-of-Range AC Voltage Shut Down The XQ515 has built-in line voltage monitoring and out-of-range shut down. The default limits are 90V at the low end and 150V at the high end, and the shut down XQ515uence begins if the line voltage remains outside the set limits for 1 second or more.
  • Page 14: Self-Test Failure Shut Down

    “Enable” if you do want this feature. 5.8 Restore Functions There are two menu items which, when enabled, allow the XQ515 to restore the original “on” condition after shut-down caused either by loss of AC power (or out-of-range AC) or by an over- ride.
  • Page 15: Applications

    XQ515s are connected together such that the banks turn on XQ515uentially from one XQ515 to the next XQ515. Each configuration is covered separately in its own section, but first there are some general points which apply to all types of installation.
  • Page 16: Auxiliary Relay

    The over-ride input has a special use when XQ515s are cascaded together. This is covered in the section on cascaded systems. If an over-ride is required with a ganged system use the over-ride input on the first XQ515. If an over-ride is required with a cascaded system use the over-ride input on the last XQ515.
  • Page 17: Other Functions

    5.5 for more details. The XQ515 has built-in voltage limits that will cause the unit to power down if the line voltage is outside these limits. The low limit can be set from 90V to 110V and the high limit can be set from 130V to 150V.
  • Page 18 The XQ515 in an expanded system can be controlled by the same inputs as a single unit system. Figure 3 shows how the two units are wired together using the aux relay contacts. The aux relay contacts on the XQ515 (terminals 6 & 7) are connected to the contact closure inputs at the back of the RT (terminals 1 &...

    XQ515 itself. Control wiring and programming is as per Figures 3 and 4. Figure 5 is just one example of the versatility of the XQ515, and the banks do not have to be set up exactly as shown in this example. The aux output and the 12V dc output could be programmed to be the first two XQ515uenced banks, or the last two XQ515uenced banks.
  • Page 20 the feedback input. Figure 7 shows how to connect and program each unit in a three-unit system. Note that terminals 5 and 6 are connected together for all units except the last one. If only two units are to be cascaded together then ignore the middle unit in the diagram. If more than three units are to be cascaded together then keep the first and last units set up as shown, add units in the middle and set them up and connected them in the same way as the middle unit in the diagram.

    7 Troubleshooting Initial Check Whenever power is applied to the XQ515 the LCD display should be illuminated and should show two lines of text as follows: Status: All On or All Off 120Vac (or whatever the actual line voltage is) Protection: Good If the first line of the display does not show “Status”...

    Over-Ride Func menu item has been set to Master when the unit is not actually connected to another XQ515 and is in cascade mode. Change this menu item to Disable. The unit will not go into programming mode You must power down the unit first before you can get into the programming mode.
