Mechanical installation
The installation of the Universal Remote Ethernet WUC-712 requires the use of an
appropriate screwdriver so the mechanical parts are not damaged. A “terminal” type 1/8”
screwdriver is recommended. The following steps details the installation.
1. Place the bottom of the WUC-712 in the DIN
35mm rail.
1. Press the top part of the WUC-712 until hearing a
click. To remove the WUC-712, just apply the opposite
force, i.e., force the WUC-712 up and pull it out.
3. The WUC-712 is designed to be installed in
regular DIN 35 mm rails and after the installation the
equipment must remain securely fastened and must
not present any slack within the trail. If there is any
slack, the trail is possibly not standard.

Attention: all cables must be “crimped” with eyelet type terminals for cables up to 1.5 mm²
unless otherwise stated. The WUC-712 input type selection is done entirely through the
WireConfig software and there are no configuration jumpers. It is recommended to use woven
shielded cables and the woven grounding should be mostly done around the field instruments at
just one point.
Power supply
The WUC-712 AC must be powered through terminals
1 and 2 with voltage ranging from 90 to 260 Vac. The WUC-
712 DC must be powered through terminals 1 and 2 with
voltage from 18 to 30 Vdc. Terminals 3 and 36 are used to
ground the “mass” to the panel and it is recommended to use
1,5 mm² cables for the phases and 2,5 mm² for grounding.
The electric scheme is described in the picture.
Note: There is no polarity on power terminals 1 and 2 for the
WUC-712 DC, i.e., the positive can be connected to terminal 1 and negative to
terminal 2 or positive to terminal 2 and negative to terminal 1.
Digital inputs
The digital inputs are used for alarm status and recognition. Input I1
and I2 are photo-coupled, with sensibility from 10 to 30 Vdc, common for
both inputs, NPN driven. Digital input I1 is used to reset or recognize RL1
an RL2 alarm conditions and digital input I2 is used as a status flag for
general use. The electric scheme is described in the picture where
terminals 7 and 8 are the NPN inputs and terminal 9 is the positive source
common.
Digital inputs can be read through Modbus register 40020.
Relay outputs and alarms
The relay outputs are used to physically indicate alarmed
conditions preset for each input. The outputs can only be reseted
through the digital inputs or Modbus registers.
The electric scheme is described in the picture, where the common
contact is connected to terminals 5 and 38, the normally open contacts
are connected to terminals 6 and 39 and the normally closed contacts
are connected to terminals 4 and 37.
The relay outputs can be read and written through Modbus register
40022

The WUC-712 has two independent alarms for each channel.
Each alarm can operate under four conditions: inoperative, low value, high value and
differential.
Inoperative: no alarm condition.
Low value: the alarm is active when the input value is
lower than the setpoint.
High value: the alarm is active when the input value is
greater than the setpoint.
Differential: differential mode is defined by the setpoint and
hysteresis. The setpoint defines the center reference point and
the hysteresis increases the reference range. If the input signal
lies outside the reference range, the alarm becomes active. For
instance, to define a reference range from 400 to 600, define
the setpoint as 500 and the hysteresis as 100. When the input
signal is lower than 400 or greater than 600 the alarm triggers.
The hysteresis is relative to the delay between the activation or deactivation of a condition.
In the WUC-712 the operation mode can change based on the selected alarm condition.
With the low value alarm condition selected, the alarm activates when the input value is
lower that the setpoint and deactivates when the input value is greater than the setpoint plus the
hysteresis.
With the high value alarm condition selected, the alarm activates when the input value is
greater than the setpoint and deactivates when the input value is lower than the setpoint minus
the hysteresis.
The waiting time defines how many seconds the output waits to be activated.
Note:
For improved security when using output relays in burn-out conditions, when there is
disruption of the Pt100 cable (see Pt100 input), it is recommended to configure the relay output
wait time to more than five seconds. This condition is important to avoid operational failures, for
instance, turbine “trips” or any other system that relies on error free states, taking into
consideration that the burn-out is an error condition in the process.

Pt100 input
The Pt100 inputs are linearized according to ITS-90. With a current
source circuit and cable compensation the WUC-712 eliminates the line
charging effect, and with resistive sensors measurement it stands as a
precise temperature measurement system. The sensor measurement
terminals are signal (G) and common (V and I) for channels CH1 up to
CH16 and the cable compensation measurement is done in the I
terminals referenced to G.
If the Pt100 cables are not connected or are open, a burn-out
signal will be represented by an indication of -200°C in the respective
channel.
The WUC-712 detects the missing sensor and disables the alarm conditions associated
with the open channel.
Note: User should pay attention to the correct connection of the sensor (signal
G and
common
V and I), otherwise indication of the temperature will fail. Incorrect connection may
interfere on the other channels.
Thermocouple input
The thermocouple inputs are linearized according to ITS-90. With
a cold junction compensation circuit, the WUC-712 takes into account
the Seebeck effect in cable connections, standing as a precise system
for high temperature or high differentials measurements. The sensor
measurement terminals are positive (V) and negative (G) for channels
CH1 up to CH16. Terminal (I) is not used in this configuration.
Note: The universal remote doesn’t have burnout detection for voltage
input, which means that, to avoid floating signal (when sensor is
disconnected), the user should configure that channel as “Sem
Entrada” (disabled) or to make a short-circuit between terminals V and G, to keep the input on 0
(zero).
Current input
The WUC-712 has two current input configurations: 0 –20 mA and
4 –20 mA. The scheme for both configurations is described in the
Picture, where the positive of the current loop is connected to the line
terminal (I) and the negative to the (G) terminal for channels CH1 up to
CH16. The positive terminal (V) is not used in this configuration.
Note: the burn-out is represented when the 4-20 mA signal is lower
than 3.5 mA.

Voltage input
The WUC-712 has three voltage input configurations: 0 –75 mV, 0
–5 V and 0 –10 V. The scheme for the configurations is described in the
Picture, where the positive is connected to the (V) terminal and the
negative to the (G) terminal for channels CH1 up to CH16. The line
terminal (I) is not used in this configuration.
Logic level input
The WUC-712 has logic level inputs with 0 to 12 Vdc sensibility.
The 0 to 3 Vdc range corresponds to logic level 0 while the 5 to 12 Vdc
range corresponds to logic level 1. The scheme is described in the
Picture, where the positive is connected to the (V) terminal and the
negative to the (G) terminal for channels CH1 up to CH16. The line
terminal (I) is not used in this configuration.
Frequency input
The WUC-712 has frequency inputs with 0.3 to 50 Vdc sensibility
and 0.3 Hz to 10 kHz reading. The scheme is described in the Picture,
where the positive is connected to the (V) terminal and the negative to
the (G) terminal for channels CH1 up to CH4. The line terminal (I) is not
used in this configuration.
