4.3 Mounting
ControlMaster is designed for panel mounting. For NEMA4X
protection, a panel thickness of 2.5 mm (0.1 in.) is required.
To panel-mount the indicator:
1. Cut a hole of the correct size for the indicator in the
panel (see page 8 for dimensions).
2. Insert the indicator into the panel cut-out.
Referring to Fig. 4.4:
3. Position the upper panel clamp Aat the top front of
the case against the panel.
4. Locate the panel clamp anchor Bin slot C.
5. Tighten the panel clamp anchor screw Duntil panel
clamp Ais secured against the panel.
6. Repeat steps 3 to 5 to fit the lower panel clamp E
and panel clamp anchor F.
Caution. Do not overtighten the screw.

4.4 Jumper Links for Relay Outputs
The factory-set default for relay action is N/O.
4.4.1 Removing the Indicator from its Case
The indicator’s inner assembly must be removed from its
case to access the relay contact jumper links.
Referring to Fig. 4.5:
1. Insert the bezel release tool A(supplied) into the front
panel slot Bto the left of the function keys.
2. Press the bezel release tool Afully in and then left
Cuntil the shoulder on the tool engages with the
notch behind the indicator front plate.
3. Pull the bezel release tool Ato withdraw the inner
assembly from the case D.
Note. If the bezel release tool is mislaid, 2 small flat-
headed screwdrivers (4 mm [0.15 in.]) can be used as
alternative tools, one inserted into the front panel slot and
the second for leverage in the notch behind the indicator
front plate. The notch is the only area that can be used as
a leverage point – do not attempt to lever the front panel
from any other area.

in Fig. 4.6.
2. If necessary, move the link to select the relay action
required (N/O or N/C).
Note. The factory-set default for all jumper links is N/O.

4.5 Electrical Connections
Warning.
The indicator is not fitted with a switch therefore a disconnecting device such as a switch or circuit breaker conforming to local safety
standards must be fitted to the final installation.
It must be mounted in close proximity to the controller within easy reach of the operator and must be marked clearly as the disconnection
device for the indicator.
Remove all power from supply, relay and any powered control circuits and high common mode voltages before accessing or making any
connections.
Use cable appropriate for the load currents. The terminals accept cables from 18 to 14 AWG (0.8 to 2.5mm2).
Always route signal leads and power cables separately, preferably in earthed (grounded) metal conduit.
It is strongly recommended that screened cable is used for signal inputs and relay connections.
The instrument conforms to Mains Power Input Overvoltage Category 2, Pollution Degree 2 (EN601010–1).
(This equipment is protected through double insulation – Class II.)
Analog / digital inputs and outputs, transmitter power supply and DC power supply are SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) circuits.
All connections to secondary circuits must have basic insulation.
After installation, there must be no access to live parts, e.g. terminals.
Terminals for external circuits are for use only with equipment with no accessible live parts.
If the controller is used in a manner not specified by the Company, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
All equipment connected to the indicator's terminals must comply with local safety standards (IEC 60950, EN601010–1).
Note. Terminal screws must be tightened to a torque of 0.1 Nm (0.9 lbf/in.).

(Alternatively, it is possible to use an external fixed cold [reference] junction, if the controller is
programmed for use with millivolt inputs and the appropriate thermocouple linearizer is selected.)
*** Analog Input 2 can be used only with THC inputs if Analog Input 1 is also used as a THC input.
**** For mA input types, to ensure loop continuity when the indicator is switched off, fit a suitably rated diode
(for example, type 1N4148 or equivalent) as shown.
Note. 3-lead RTD: 3 leads must have equal resistance, not exceeding 20 each.
