Description
The API 6380 G accepts an AC voltage or current input and pro-
vides an optically isolated DC voltage or current output that is
linearly related to the input. Accuracy is maintained over a wide
frequency range for maximum flexibility. A true RMS model API
6380 G S is available for distorted AC inputs.
The full 3-way (input, output, power) isolation makes this mod-
ule useful for ground loop elimination, common mode signal
rejection or noise pickup reduction.
20 input and 16 output ranges can be field-configured via
external rotary and slide switches. Popular ranges are listed
on the module label. Consult the factory for assistance with
special ranges.
LoopTracker
API exclusive features include two LoopTracker LEDs (green for
input, red for output) that vary in intensity with changes in the
process input and output signals. These provide a quick visual
picture of your process loop at all times and can greatly aid in
saving time during initial startup and/or troubleshooting.
Output Test
An API exclusive feature includes the test button to provide a
fixed output (independent of the input) when held depressed.
The test output level is potentiometer adjustable from 0 to
100% of output span.
The output test button greatly aids in saving time during initial
startup and/or troubleshooting.

Operation
Depending on the rotary switch settings, the input is either ampli-
fied or attenuated, then filtered and processed by a precision full-
wave rectification circuit. The result is passed thru a low pass active
filter that provides a DC voltage representing the average value of
the input. This DC voltage is passed through an optical isolation
circuit to the output stage.
Test Button – Drives a device on the output side of the loop (a
panel meter, chart recorder, etc.) with a known good signal that can
be used as a system diagnostic aid during initial start-up or during
troubleshooting. When released, the output will return to normal.
GREEN LoopTracker®Input LED – Provides a visual indication that
a signal is being sensed by the input circuitry of the module. It also
indicates the input signal strength by changing in intensity as the
process changes from minimum to maximum. If the LED fails to illu-
minate, or fails to change in intensity as the process changes, this
may indicate a problem with module power or signal input wiring.
RED LoopTracker output LED – Provides a visual indication that the
output signal is functioning. It becomes brighter as the input and the
corresponding output change from minimum to maximum. For cur-
rent outputs, the LED will only light if the output loop current path is
complete. For either current or voltage outputs, failure to illuminate or
a failure to change in intensity as the process changes may indicate
a problem with the module power or signal output wiring.
Signal Output
Polarity must be observed when connecting the signal output to the
load. The module provides 20 VDC power to the output loop when
current output is selected.
Signal Input
For safety, input must be off while connecting wiring. Input voltages
must not exceed socket voltage rating. Connect the AC signal input
to terminals 5 and 6.
Module Power
Check model/serial number label for module operating voltage to
make sure it matches available power.
AC power is connected to terminals 1 and 3.
For DC powered modules, polarity MUST be observed.
Positive (+) is wired to terminal 1
Negative (–) is wired to terminal 3
Calibration
The Zero and Span potentiometers can be used fine-tune the output range.
Note: Perform the following calibration procedure any time switch
settings are changed.
1. Power the module and allow a minimum 20 minute warm up time.
2. Using an accurate calibration source, provide an input to the
module equal to the minimum input required for the application.
3. Using an accurate measurement device for the output, adjust the
Zero potentiometer for the exact minimum output desired. The Zero
control should only be adjusted when the input signal is at its mini-
mum. This will produce the corresponding minimum output signal.
For example: 4 mA for a 4-20 mA output or –10 V for a ±10V
output.
4. Set the input at maximum, and adjust the Span pot for the exact
maximum output desired. The Span pot should only be adjusted
when the input signal is at its maximum. This will produce the
corresponding maximum output signal.
5. Repeat adjustments for maximum accuracy.
Test Range Adjust – Turn the multi-turn Test Range potentiometer
while holding the Test button depressed until the desired output test
level is reached. It can be adjusted to vary the output signal from 0
to 100% of the output range.
Installation and Setup API 6380 G Series
Precautions
WARNING! All wiring must be performed by a qualified electrician or
instrumentation engineer. See diagram for terminal designations and
wiring examples. Consult factory for assistance.
WARNING! Avoid shock hazards! Turn signal input, output, and
power off before connecting or disconnecting wiring, or removing
or installing module.
Précautions
ATTENTION! Tout le câblage doit être effectué par un électricien
ou ingénieur en instrumentation qualifié. Voir le diagramme pour
désignations des bornes et des exemples de câblage. Consulter
l'usine pour assistance.
ATTENTION! Éviter les risques de choc! Fermez le signal d'entrée,
le signal de sortie et l'alimentation électrique avant de connecter
ou de déconnecter le câblage, ou de retirer ou d'installer le module.
Socket and Mounting
The module installation requires a protective panel or enclosure. Use
API 008 or finger-safe API 008 FS socket.
The socket clips to a standard 35 mm DIN rail or can be attached to
a flat surface using the two mounting holes.
Output Reversal Configuration
The default configuration is normal acting output. The output can be
reversed by moving an internal jumper.
1. Unplug the module from the socket.
2. Remove 4 screws from the module bottom and lift off plastic case.
3. Note location of circuit board jumper. See diagram below.
4. Place jumper as indicated for desired output operation.
5. Replace cover and screws.
Range Selection
Set I/O ranges before plugging the module in. See the model/serial
number label for options or if a custom range was specified. See
module label for common ranges or table below to select I/O ranges.
Switch A: Set to "V" for voltage input or "I" for current input.
Switch A determines the input impedance for the module, typically
10 Ωfor current inputs and 220 kΩor 1 MΩfor voltage inputs.
Switch B: Output range
Switch C: Input range
Switch D: Input range
Switch E: Set to "V" for voltage output or "I" for current output
