The Operator Interface Panel (we will call it the In-
terface Panel throughout the rest of this guide) is the
central point of the system, whereby all Remote Zone
Interface Panels are attached. It can easily be identi-
ed by the presence of a display screen and a keypad.
The Interface Panel monitors and controls all of the
Remote panels that are attached to it, through RS-
485 serial communications (to be explained later).
The Interface Panel runs the actual program that
provides the control for the entire system. Through
communications, it monitors the status of each
attached Remote Zone Interface Panel, and provides
the necessary control instructions for each Remote
Zone Interface Panel to perform. Additionally, all
setpoints are stored in the Interface Panel.
Status of the entire system may be monitored form
here, and appropriate changes made to system
operation.
THE REMOTE I/O PANEL
Each complete Evaporator system will have from one
to ten Remote I/O Panels, and each panel is capable
of controlling up to 3 Evaporator zones:
Quantum LX Evaporator
Remote PanelNumber: ___________
Notice that there is a yellow sticker on the front
of the door for each Remote I/O Panel. This sticker
will identify the Remote Panel number and the
Zones it will control. This will all be explained in
greater detail later, but it is an important fact to
note.
The Remote Panels do not have a display or keypad. Each
Remote Panel can control three independent Zones. Each
Quantum™ LX Evaporator system can manage up to 10
Remote I/O Panels, providing the ability to control as
many as 30 Evaporator zones.
SETUP DESCRIPTION
The following Setup Guide is meant to assist the installation
technician in making all necessary electrical power, control and
communications connections to a Quantum™ LX Evaporator
system. They will be provided also with the basic information
necessary to login and congure the system. It will then aid in
troubleshooting the system should problems arise. This Guide
will help to ensure:
WIRING
• Location of incoming AC source power to all
panels (Interface and Remote)
• Basic installation guidelines are followed.
• Location, polarity and grounding of
communications wiring.
• Location of all control (I/O) wiring.
• Proper powering up of all panels.
CONFIGURATION
• Logging into the system.
• Verifying communications.
• Conguring the Zones.
• Calibrating sensors.
• Setting up operating Setpoints.
OPERATION
• Setting the operating Mode.
• Verifying the data being returned to the Interface
panel from all remote panels (Zones).
• Checking and clearing of alarms.
• Zone overview
• Ammonia Conguration
IDENTIFYING AN EVAPORATOR SYSTEM

Multiple Evaporator systems may be interconnected via a com-
mon Ethernet connection. Each Evaporator system operates
independently of one another yet they may all be monitored
and controlled through a common computer. Such a system
would include the Quantum™ LX Evaporator Interface Panel,
Remote Zone Controller(s), an Ethernet Hub or Switch, and
a computer running a Web Browser. A simplied example of
such a system (with three Evaporator systems) is shown here:

SYSTEM INSTALLATION
An in depth installation setup is beyond the scope of this guide,
however some basic rules can be observed:
▯ Pay particular attention to the yellow sticker on the
front of each Remote I/O Panel. It will have been lled
in at the factory, as to which panel will control which
zone. This is a close-up of the sticker:
Quantum LX Evaporator
Remote Panel Number: ___________
Zone: ___________
Zone: ___________
Zone: ___________
▯ Maintain a total distance of 2000 feet or less between
the Operator Interface Panel, and the very last Re-
mote I/O Panel on any one communications cable
run. As will be explained later, it is possible to have
two separate communications cable runs, depending
upon the total number of Remote I/O Panels. Keep
in mind that neither of these cable runs can exceed
2000 feet in length.
▯ Remote I/O Panels should be mounted in close prox-
imity to the zones that they will be controlling. In
some instances, there may be fan motor starters lo-
cated in a separate area from the zone, so it may
be more convenient to locate the Remote I/O Panels
near the starters, than the actual Evaporator unit. The
idea is to minimize the length of the control wiring, so
if there is less wiring to the zone than to the starters,
then install close to the starters or vice-versa.
▯ The system is capable of Ethernet communications,
this may be something to consider when placing In-
terface Panels, as you would want a nearby Ethernet
connection to be available.
▯ Keep all communications wiring in a separate conduit
from control wiring.
▯ When wiring for communications, it is important to
ground only one end of the communications cable.
This ground will be located in the very last Remote
Panel of each communications cable run. If the com-
munications were to be grounded at both ends, then
it would be possible for ground loops to develop,
which could impair communications between panels.
▯ Interface Panels should be located in easy access ar-
eas, and should be mounted at eye level for screen
viewing.
▯ Remote Panels are rated for both indoor and outdoor
use. Although access to the Remote Panels will be
rare after installation and setup, it is still advanta-
geous to keep them accessible for potential mainte-
nance situations (reasonable lighting, sufcient door
swing, etc.).
▯ Install all panels within a convenient distance of a
power source.
▯ Refer to the Zone Conguration Chart for additional
information.

CHECKING THE AC POWER
Interface Panel
▯ Ensure that the Control Power switch is in the
OFF position.
▯ Energize the 120 Volt circuit at its source.
▯ Using a DVM, measure the voltage at the AC
power terminal strip. Ensure that you read ap-
proximately 120 VAC between Hot and Neutral,
and Hot and Ground. There must not be voltage
between Neutral and Ground.
▯ Once the incoming voltage has been veried,
turn the Control Power switch to ON.
▯ On the enclosure door, and watch the Quantum™
LX controller (on the backside of the door). You
should notice various LED’s blinking or ashing.
▯ Watch the display on the front of the door. Af-
ter a short period of time, you should notice the
display showing a boot sequence. Various text
messages will be shown as it proceeds with the
boot-up process. When nished, a screen similar
to the following image should be visible:
▯ If the panel has reached the point of showing the
above screen, the boot process was successful.
Turn OFF the Control Power switch, and De-en-
ergize the 120 Volt circuit at its source.
▯ If the panel does not reach to the point of show-
ing the above screen, then troubleshooting will
be required. Refer to end of this guide entitled
Troubleshooting.
Remote Panel(s)
▯ Unlike the Interface Panel, the Remote panels
do not have an external power switch. Instead,
the enclosure will contain two HOA (Hand-Off
Automatic Modules). These modules allow the
technician to override control signals, by manu-
ally energizing components. An example of one
of these modules is shown here:
Red, power OFF
tab
Black, power ON
plunger
▯ Notice in the above pictorial, there is a Red pow-
er OFF tab, and a black power ON plunger. These
items are located on a circuit breaker for each of
the two HOA modules. Together, they act as the
Control Power switch.
▯ Push each of the Red power OFF tabs down. The
Black power ON plunger should pop up. If the
plunger does not pop up, then the power was
already off. Do this to both HOA modules.
▯ Energize the 120 Volt circuit at its source.
▯ Using a DVM, measure the voltage at the AC
power terminals (1, 2 and PE). Ensure that you
read approximately 120 VAC between Hot and
Neutral, and Hot and Ground. There must not be
voltage between Neutral and Ground.
▯ Once the incoming voltage has been veried,
push in the Black power ON plungers of both
HOA modules.
▯ To the right of the HOA modules are several I/O
boards. There will be at least one Digital board
(recognizable by the plug-in I/O modules), and
one Analog board. Inspect all boards for the
presence of ashing, blinking or steadily lit
LED’s. If LED’s are lit on all boards, then power
has been properly applied.
▯ If LED’s are not lit on all boards, then refer to the
section entitled Troubleshooting.
