Safety Information

4 S&C Instruction Sheet 766-557
Overview
These instructions cover the procedure for operating the IntelliRupter PulseCloser Fault
Interrupter Docking Station. This device powers the protection and control module
when it is removed from the IntelliRupter fault interrupter, and permits uploading and
downloading conguration settings, by using a dedicated base memory module. The
docking station can also be used with a communication module when it is removed from
the IntelliRupter fault interrupter and installed in the docking station with a protection
and control module. The protection and control module provides the power for the com-
munication module and permits programming the radio, verifying radio operation, and
charging the communication module battery.
The docking station may be used to monitor serial communication traffic between
the protection and control module and the communication module, using either a secure
Wi-Fi connection to your personal computer or a direct connection to your serial-port-
equipped personal computer. A user-furnished DNP test set, such as manufactured by
ASE, may be connected to the docking station to monitor DNP messages.
The docking station includes a Wi-Fi radio antenna. Connectors are provided for a
user-furnished SCADA radio antenna and a user-furnished GPS receiver antenna.
The docking station may be powered from 88 to 264 V, 50/60 Hz. It is intended for
indoor use only.
NOTICE
To ensure that previously programmed settings in the protection and control module
are not lost when the module is installed in the docking station, you must unplug the
base memory module from the docking station. If the base memory module is not
unplugged from the docking station when the docking station is powered up,
the protection and control module will upload the most recently applied settings
stored in the base memory module.

S&C Instruction Sheet 766-557 5
Setup
Step 1
Set up the docking station on a sturdy work surface. If Global Positioning System opera-
tion is to be checked, place the docking station near a window, so that satellite signals
can be received by the user-furnished GPS antenna.
Step 2
Connect the power cord to the docking station. Then plug the power cord into an ac outlet.
Step 3
If a SpeedNet Radio is installed: Insert the “Radio Ethernet to Control / Radio Ethernet
to Comm” jumper into the docking station.
Step 4
If you wish to directly connect your personal computer to the docking station to com-
municate with the protection and control module, instead of using the Wi-Fi connection:
a. Remove the factory-installed “Wi-Fi Serial to Control / Wi-Fi Serial to Comm” jumper
from the docking station.
b. Plug the computer into the “Wi-Fi Serial to Control” port.
Step 5
Carefully attach the protection and control module to the docking station. Make sure that
the connector guide pins are aligned properly, then insert them fully.
Step 6
Carefully attach the communication module to the docking station. Make sure that the
connector guide pins are aligned properly, then insert them fully.
Step 7
If serial trafc between the protection and control module and the radio is to be moni-
tored through a DNP test set: Plug the DNP test set into the “RX” port.
