2.1 Overview
The ASCO 5010 LCD Remote Display Unit is an integral part of the ASCO Power Quality Meter system, allowing
interconnectivity with the ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meter for configuring and monitoring the electrical distribution
system.
The ASCO 5010 Remote Display Unit (RDU) connects and communicates with the ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meter
directly via RJ45 network cable or through IP communication from anywhere in the world. One RDU can be used to monitor and
configure many ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meters.
The ASCO 5010 RDU enables configuring all aspects of the ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meter and displays all monitored
real time values. Figure 1 describes the role of the ASCO 5010 RDU in managing power quality data in a power distribution
system.
The ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meter (1) is connected to the electrical system via current and potential transformers.
These instruments constantly record the voltage and current waveforms at a resolution of up to 1024 samples per cycle. This data
is compressed on board using the ASCO PQZip technology. The PQZip files are transferred to a PNode (4) running on a server
managed by the Site Manager. The PNode stores the data collected from the instrument and responds to requests from client
workstations running ASCO Investigator software (5). When an engineer using the Investigator software wishes to analyze the
data collected by the instrument from a certain time frame, the PNode decompresses the requested data, performs the necessary
mathematical calculations to display the electrical parameters requested by the client and then arranges and configures the data to
be displayed on the specific screen used by the client.
Every ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meter hosts an onboard Website allowing access to data from any web browser.
Inputting the IP address of the instrument in the address window of an internet browser will bring the ASCO 5400 Series webpage
to the browser with current real time monitored values (2). Configuration of the ASCO 5400 Series may also be achieved via the
Website.

The ASCO IP Address Search Tool (6) is an important element in the ASCO Power Quality Meter System. This utility allows all
ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meter and ASCO 5010 RDU connected to a LAN to be found and identified on line.
The ASCO 5010 (3) Remote Display LCD is used to both configure and monitor the ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meter
achieving much the same effect as when using a web browser but with the added tactile feedback only a dedicated LCD display
can offer. The ASCO 5010 RDU can be used as a hand held monitoring and configuring tool connecting to each ASCO 5400
Series Power Quality Meter in turn using a CAT 5e/6 network cable with a RJ45 plug, or optionally plugging into a network
connection and alternately inputting the IP addresses of the different instruments.

2.2 Safety Precautions
Before working with the ASCO 5010 Remote Display Unit, please read this User Manual carefully. The manufacturer will not be
responsible for damage or injury due to misuse.
The following general safety guidelines apply to ASCO 5010 RDU installation and operation. When performing any operation
with the ASCO 5010, always observe these safety precautions.
The instructions contained in this manual are intended for qualified personnel only. To avoid personal injury, do not
perform any activity other than as contained herein unless you are qualified to do so.
Before connecting cables to the ASCO 5010 RDU, verify that the 48VDC supply is disconnected.

Section 3. Hardware Description
3.1 ASCO 5010 Remote Display Unit Overview
The ASCO 5010 Remote Display Unit shown in Figure 2 can be divided into three conceptual sections. The upper section
contains the Status LEDs, the middle section contains the visual interface; a header and the monitor screen and the lower section
contains the input interface; 5 Function keys and a Network key.
Figure 2: The ASCO 5010 Remote Display Unit
The Status LEDs indicate as follows:
Green LED – External power indication
Red LED – Failure or indication of incomplete configuration
The Header contains the name of the instrument currently connected and the time of day.
The five Function keys are context sensitive, offering dynamic functionality as the unit is used, with the current function
appearing above the key.
The Network key is used to disconnect with the current instrument, enabling connectivity with another instrument.

Figure 3 shows the ASCO 5010 RDU connectors as follows:
a. RJ45 – used for both communication & power sourcing the unit (PoE – power over the Ethernet cable coming from
ASCO 5400 Series Power Quality Meter). By factory default, the ASCO 5010 RDU is ready for connecting to
any ASCO 5400 Series unit at the LCD port. A simple CAT5e/6 cable connecting directly between the ASCO
5010 RDU and ASCO 5450 and 5490 LAN2/LCD port will automatically power up, connect and open the main
menu screen relevant for that specific ASCO 5400 Series PQM currently connected. Remote connectivity
(through an IP network) is also applicable but requires configuration as described later in this manual.
b. DC 48V – Used for alternative power source (for remote connectivity when PoE is not available)
c. RS485/422 – Used in industrial applications for multi-drop series communication when IP networking is not
available.

Section 4. Mounting
The ASCO 5010 Remote Display Unit is designed for mounting on a flat panel through a 138x138mm cutout with two 5mm
holes. Two screws are supplied for fixing the display unit to the panel from behind. A typical location for mounting the ASCO
5010 RDU is on the front panel of an electrical distribution panel. Figure 5 and Figure 6 aid in describing the method of attaching
the RDU to a panel.
A 138 x138 hole is cut out from the panel and the RDU is slid in to place from in front. The RDU is then fixed in place using two
screws from behind.
