Introduction
The ConsoliDator+ is a multi-channel controller that is both easy to use and satisfies a wide variety of process
display, alarm and control applications. It accepts 4-20 mA inputs, flow meter pulse inputs, digital inputs, and
Modbus RTU inputs and displays them both in numeric and bargraph format on a large, 5.7" color display. It can
be equipped with multiple relays with user-definable actions, 4-20 mA outputs, digital outputs, Modbus RTU, and
Ethernet Modbus TCP/IP protocol communication capabilities. Additionally, the controller is equipped with up to
32 timers that can be used to control many processes or events.
All this functionality is easily programmed using free software or via the front panel pushbuttons. Choose the
model that best suits your application, from monitoring only to fully loaded controllers with an extensive
combination of inputs, outputs and communication protocols. The standard product offering is listed below, and
other models are available for special order.

controllers. To install the sun hood onto the ConsoliDator+, remove the paper covering from the adhesive tape from
the back of the sun hood. Then align the sun hood to the top left and right corners of the front panel of the
ConsoliDator+ and firmly press it into position. See Figure 13.

to power the output loop.
3. Each relay is Form C and rated at 10 A.
4. Input / output connections are made to removable screw connectors.
5. Every ConsoliDator+ has five digital inputs (additional digital inputs can
be obtained by using the Pulse Inputs).
