INSTALLATION
RULES
The module has been designed for vertical installation on an IEC EN 60715 omega guide. For optimal
operation and long working life, adequate ventilation must be provided. Avoid positioning cable ducts or
other objects so that they obstruct the ventilation slots. Avoid mounting modules over equipment
generating heat. Installation in the bottom part of the distribution board is recommended
OMEGA IEC EN 60715 guide installation on and removal from.
Insertion on the IEC EN 60715 guide:
1) Move the four hooks on the back of the module
outwards as illustrated in fig. 1b.
2) Insert the module aligning the IDC10 rear connector
to the female of the Seneca support for the IEC EN
60715 guide.
3) To secure the module to the guide, tighten the four
hooks on the side of the IDC10 rear connector as shown
in fig. 1a.
Removal from the IEC EN 60715 guide:
As illustrated in figure 1b:
1) Move outwards the four hooks on the side
of the module, using a screwdriver.
2) Extract the module from the guide.

CONNECTIONS
IDC10 rear connector (POWER AND PORT 1)
In the figure you can see the meaning of the IDC10
connector pins if you want to provide signals
through them.
Module power is available from the rear connector
or via terminals 2 and 3.
Potential Z-PC-DINAL2-17.5 use
If the Z-PC-DINAL1-17.5 accessory is used the
power supply
and communication signals may be provided by the
terminals block.
The illustration shows the meaning of the various
terminals and DIP-switch position, found in all

21
The power supply must be connected to the
IDC10 bus or to terminals 2 and 3.
The supply voltage must be between 10 and
40V(any polarity), or between 19 and 28 V.
The upper limits must not be exceeded in
order to avoid serious damage to the
module.
The power supply source must be protected
from any malfunctions using appropriately-sized
safety fuses.
Micro USB
The module has a microUSB connector, you can connect the Z-MODEM-3G to Z-TWS4
or to Z-PASS1 through it. The adaptor cables, supplied with the module, must be
connected as shown in the figure.
For further information, refer to the Z-TWS4 or Z-PASS1 user manuals.

STAT
USB
One antenna (ANTENNA-STILO-EA247) is
supplied with Z-MODEM-3G.
This antenna must be screwed into the SMA
MAIN connector.
An second "diversity" antenna can be
connected to the module in order to improve
the performance of the modem.
For more performance you can use an antenna
with a better gain (see accessories).
Warning: The modem don’t work properly if
only the "div" (diversity) antenna is connected.
