ELECTRICAL CONTROL PANEL
MASTER/SECONDARY
QUICK START GUIDE
A quick guide to connecting RPS secondary panels to the RPC master panel.
Up to to three RPS secondary panels may be added to an RPC master control
panels. Each RPC controller can control a maximum of eight control bus strips.
30 and 42 circuit panels each contrain two control strips, while 48, 66 and 84
circuit panels each contain 4 control bus strips. Please consult the following table
table for the positions of each control bus.

The first control bus set in the master panel connects directly to the RPC controller using the provided cables with 8-pin molex
connectors. The second control bus set and all secondary panels, where applicable, connect to the multi-panel expander board (MPE).
To connect bus strips to the MPE you will need either one 6-conductor, 600V jacketed, 18-14 AWG tray cable or two 4-conductor, 600V
jacketed, 18-14 AWG tray cables per control bus set. Each strip requires 4 conductors but the DC power conductors can be daisy chained
within the panelboard. Connect control bus strips to the MPE as follows.
1. At the MPE, terminate the Left Bus B, Left Bus A, Right Bus B, Right Bus A, Common (–) and 24VDC (+) in the screw-terminal
header for that control bus strip from left to right.
2. Connect the cable to the control bus strips as shown in the diagram.
If using one 6-conductor cable, at each control bus set, strip the cable sheath back approximately 20 inches. Cut the conductors
for Left Bus B, Left Bus A, – and + down to approximately 4 inches and terminate them in the Left Bus screw-terminal header from
left to right. Terminate the remaining two conductors in the Right Bus B and Right Bus A positions of the Right Bus screw-terminal

header. Cut two lengths of 18 AWG wire to install jumpers
from Left Bus – and + to Right Bus – and +. Right Bus will
not operate without these jumpers installed to provide
24VDC power and common.
