3.3 Inputs wiring
Standard Terminal Drawing
Caution : Specific terminal drawing may be supplied upon method or customer request
3.3.1 4-20mA output wiring:
4-20mA outputs representing chemical value of the measured parameter by analyzer are
accessible for each channel on pins 1 & 2 of connector J7 of the concerned card (card 1
channel 1, card 2 channel 2 etc.).
Pins 3 & 4 are used if there is a second measurement on the same channel
(OUT_ANA2).
The signal value 4mA corresponds to low range measurement (usually 0), and the 20mA
signal value corresponds to high range measurement.
3.3.2 Channel input (IN_DIG1) wiring
Available on each channel map, this input allows remote control of channel selection.
If you do not wish to remotely control the channel selection, leave pins 1, 2 and 3 of J8
unconnected.
There are two wiring modes for this input: dry contact or hot input (0-24V).
It is strongly recommended to use dry contact control to avoid electrical problems. In
this case, connect the 2 terminals of the dry contact to pins 1 & 2 of J8. If the contact is
open, then the channel is selected, if the contact is closed then the channel is

9
invalidated and the corresponding measurement will not be performed. An alert
message (ex : 'Inactive channel (remote control)') will instantaneous appear on the PC
panel at the time this channel should be analysed.
In the case where the control is provided by a 'hot' input 0-24V, the reference must be
connected to pin 3 and the selection voltage 0 / + 24V to pin 2 of J8. Terminal 1 must
always remain unconnected.
3.4 JBUS connection
Communication between analyzer and customer use JBUS protocol. It can be done
either by RS485 or TCP / IP (Ethernet).
3.4.1 JBUS by RS485
JBUS terminal box is installed in the top of the analyzer close to the power supply and
I/O card. Proceed like below:
-Open the door
-Connect the RS485 wires to the JBUS box:
JBUS terminal box
-Set up the JBUS Slave (Maintenance menu/Options menu/ and select Options
tab) : fix a value greather than 16

10
3.4.2 JBUS by TCP/IP
To connect analyzer via Ethernet, the analyzer is equipped with a converter located at
the top of the device.
The connection is made via the Ethernet connector located outside on the right
side of the analyzer.
Simply mount the Ethernet cable in the connector and plug the connector.
For this communication, it is necessary to know the addressing mode desired by
the customer. This is important because the module must be configured correctly.
There are two addressing modes:
-Automatic IP address assigned by a DHCP system to the analyzer
-Fixed IP address (provided by the customer) which had to be configured by
manufacturer
4. Operating instructions
4.1 Start-up
Before connecting the analyzer to the power supply, check all the electric and hydraulic
connections. Eventually, consult "technical specifications" chapter. Adjust the sample
flow so that there is an excess of water at the pressure reducer device (setting tap and
transparent pressure reducer device situated on the left side of the device). If the internal
distribution block is installed, verify that the sample overflows the down flow weir of
the internal distribution block's selection finger.
