Grounding Requirements
An effectively grounded product is one that is intentionally connected to earth ground through a ground
connection or connections of sufficiently low impedance and having sufficient current-carrying capacity to
prevent elevated voltages which may result in undue hazard to connected equipment or to persons.
Grounding of the Protege system is done for three basic reasons:
1. Safety
2. Component protection
3. Noise reduction
Safety Grounding
The object of safety grounding is to ensure that all metalwork is at the same ground (or earth) potential.
Impedance between the Protege system and the building scheme ground must conform to the requirements of
national and local industrial safety regulations or electrical codes. These will vary based on country, type of
distribution system and other factors. The integrity of all ground connections should be checked periodically.
General safety dictates that all metal parts are connected to earth with separate copper wire or wires of the
appropriate gauge.
Earth Ground Connection
The DIN rail enclosure and the DIN rail modules must be grounded to a suitable single-point earth ground
connection in the installation. A minimum 14AWG solid copper wire (or thicker, in accordance with local
authorities) shall be used from the Protege system's earth connection points.
The DIN rail enclosure includes an earth ground single-point link connection via the metallic enclosure. This
single-point link is the Protege system's earth ground. All modules that have earth ground connections and that
are installed in the same enclosure shall be connected to this single point. A single-point earth ground
connection avoids the creation of ground loops in the system and provides a single reference point to earth
ground.

PRT-CTRL-DIN | Protege GX DIN Rail Integrated System Controller | Installation Manual 9

Mounting
Protege DIN rail modules are designed to mount on standard DIN rail either in dedicated DIN cabinets or on
generic DIN rail mounting strip.
When installing a DIN rail module, ensure that there is adequate clearance around all sides of the device and
that air flow to the vents of the unit is not restricted. It is recommended that you install the module in a location
that will facilitate easy access for wiring. It is also recommended that the module is installed in an electrical
room, communication equipment room, secure cabinet, or in an accessible area of the ceiling.
1. Position the DIN rail module with the labeling in the correct orientation.
2. Hook the mounting tabs (opposite the tab clip) under the edge of the DIN rail.
3. Push the DIN rail module against the mount until the tab clips over the rail.
Removal
A Protege DIN rail module can be removed from the DIN rail mount using the following steps:
1. Insert a flat blade screwdriver into the hole in the module tab clip.
2. Lever the tab outwards and rotate the unit off the DIN rail mount.

Connections
Power Requirements
Power is supplied to the controller by a 12V DC power supply connected to the N+ and N- terminals. The
controller does not contain internal regulation or isolation and any clean 12V DC supply is suitable for this
purpose.
Termination of wiring to the module while power is applied or the battery is connected may cause serious
damage to the unit and will VOID ALL WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES.
Power the unit only after all wiring, configuration and jumper settings are completed.
A battery backup must be connected to the module network to provide a monitored supply. The battery plays
an important role in power conditioning and provides a continuous source of power in the event of a power
outage.
Example 2A Power Supply Connection:
PRT-CTRL-DIN | Protege GX DIN Rail Integrated System Controller | Installation Manual 12

Example 4A Power Supply Connection:
In a small installation this same power supply can be used to supply the module network as well, so long as the
maximum load of the power supply is not exceeded. In larger installations, the power supply may need to be
split to allow for load sharing between several supplies.
To comply with EN 50131-1 only one battery can be connected and monitored per system. If more capacity is
required a single larger battery must be used.
Example Multiple PSU Connection:
When using multiple power supplies it is important to ensure that all ground connections (V-) are connected
between all power supplies and that no power connections (V+) are connected between any power supplies.
PRT-CTRL-DIN | Protege GX DIN Rail Integrated System Controller | Installation Manual 13

Auxiliary Outputs
The auxiliary outputs (V- V+) of the controller can be used to supply other equipment. Note that there is no
onboard regulation or isolation for these outputs; they are a fused feed-through from the N+ N- input terminals.
When using these outputs to supply other devices, be sure not to exceed the rating of the internal fuses as
outlined in the Technical Specifications.
Encrypted Module Network
The controller incorporates encrypted RS-485 communications technology. Connection of the communications
should be performed according to the following diagram.

Always connect the controller's NA and NB terminals to the NA and NB terminals of the expansion devices and
keypads. The N+ and N- must connect to a 12V power supply source capable of supplying the peak current
drawn by all modules. If a shielded cable is used, the shield must be connected at only one end of the cable. DO
NOT connect a shield at both ends.
The 12V N+ and N- communication input must be supplied from only one point. Connections from more than
one 12V supply may cause failure or damage to the unit or the device supplying network power. Make sure
that the power supply can supply enough current for the peak load drawn by all modules connected to the
12V supply, including the controller itself.
Module Wiring
The recommended module network wiring specifications are:
⦁Belden 9842 or equivalent
⦁24AWG twisted pair with characteristic impedance of 120 ohm
⦁Maximum total length of cable is 900m (3000ft)
⦁CAT5e / CAT6 are also supported for data transmission when using ground in the same cable (to a
maximum length of 100m (328ft))
Warning: Unused wires in the cable must not be used to carry power to other devices.

Ethernet 10/100 Network Interface
The communication between the Protege system and the controller uses a 10/100 ethernet network operating
the TCP/IP protocol suite. The IP address of the controller can be configured using an LCD keypad terminal or
via the built-in web interface. The default IP address is set to a static address of 192.168.1.2 with a subnet mask
of 255.255.255.0. These IP address settings are commonly used for internal networks.
Installing the module on an active network requires knowledge of the configuration and structure for the
network. Always consult the network or system administrator and ask them to provide you with a fixed IP
address that can be assigned to the module.
When installing an ethernet connection the module should be interfaced using a standard segment (<100m in
length) and should be connected to a suitable ethernet hub or switch:
