INSTALLATION QUICK START GUIDE
1Mount the device
The Click 400 mounts over a T-bus for power and communication:
1 If the Click 400 was shipped with the T-bus connector attached, remove the connector
from the module.
2 Snap the connector onto the DIN rail by positioning it over the rail with the male connector
pointing to the right. Hook one arm over the edge of the DIN rail and press down on the
other arm until is snaps into place.
3 Connect the T-bus connector to the rest of the T-bus by sliding them together until you
hear them snap into place.
4 Mount the Click 400 onto the DIN rail: position it properly over the T-bus connector, hook
the lip over the lower edge of the DIN rail, and use a rocking motion to snap the module
into place.
If you are using a Click 200 surge protector with the Click 400, power and communication are provided to the Click 400
through the T-bus (see the Click 200 Quicks Start Guide). If you don’t have a Click 200 surge protector, use the following
steps to wire power and communication into the Click 400:
1 Plug a T-bus 5-screw terminal block into the first T-bus connector.
2 Wire DC power (10–30 V) from the power supply into the first
screw terminal on the 5-screw terminal block; wire -DC into the
second screw terminal.
3 Connect RS-485 communication (+485, -485, and GND) to
either the remaining three screw terminal on the 5-screw
terminal block or to the screw terminals in the pluggable screw
terminal block on the top of the Click 400 (see labels for cor-
rect wiring).
The front of the Click 400 has one other communication port.

The Click 400 has a reversed polarity SMA antenna connector. A whip antenna can be used inside the cabinet, though if it
is inside a metal cabinet, the range will be diminished. An external antenna can also be mounted on the exterior of the trac
cabinet or up on a pole for maximum range. In that case, it is recommended you use a Click 250 wireless surge protector:
1 Connect the reversed polarity SMA connector of a coax cable to the Click 400 (antenna must be removed), and connect
the N connector to the non-bulkhead end of the Click 250.
2 Connect the N connector of another coax cable to the bulkhead end of the Click 250, and connect the other end of the
cable to the external antenna.
3 Attach a 12 AWG stranded copper grounding wire to the Click 250, then connect the grounding wire to earth ground.

Click Supervisor will be used to configure the Click 400. To install it:
1 Download the setup file from www.wavetronix.com (under Support).
2 Double-click on the file to run the setup wizard. Follow the steps to install.
5Install Click Supervisor
6Make a connection
Use the device’s configuration features to make sure the Click
400 is wired and working properly. The Click 400 has four LEDs
that monitor device activity and help you select operating modes,
as well as a push-button, labeled Mode Switch, also used for oper-
ating modes.
1 Autobaud device (see table).
2 Set one of the devices as a server (by default, and after a
reset, the devices are clients) by setting it in Link Test server
mode. When the link test starts, press the push-button again;
the test will end and the device will stay a server. Your Click
400 installation will not work until you do this.
Hold the push-button to cycle through modes, then release when the desired mode is reached.

1 Make sure there is a connection between the Click 400 and the computer that Click Supervisor is on. This can be
through the DB-9 connector on the module or through another device also on the T-bus; for example, the Click 421 can
communicate with the computer through Bluetooth.
2 Run Click Supervisor and select Communication. The Click 400 can only be configured using serial communication.
3 Click Settings to make any necessary changes to the settings, such as the port or the baud rate. Click OK to return to the
Communication screen, then click Connect. Keep the Click ID set to 0.
4 In the next screen, Click Supervisor will display all the devices it discovers. When the Click 400 appears, select it and
click Select. Click Supervisor will connect to the device.
