Preferred Areas for Conduit Entry

Your relay cabinet has been designed to be easy to install with a variety of installation

options to ﬁt many applications. However, there still are speciﬁc considerations which

must be made. One of these is the allowed, and in some cases disallowed, areas for

conduit entry. Disallowed areas are areas where conduit entry is impossible either

due to physical or code limitations. These areas are clearly marked in the following

illustrations. Once you recognize the disallowed areas for conduit entry, you can look

at the allowed areas. Each cabinet style has designated areas for low voltage and line

voltage conduit entry. Observation of these requirements will ensure smooth installation

and continued code compliance.

Mounting Provisions & Dimensions

Step-by-Step Mounting Instructions

Step 1: Locate where the cabinet will be hung on the wall. Choose a location in a dry

area that is convenient to the branch circuit panel.

Step 2: Leviton requires that cabinet mounting hardware reach through the drywall to

wall studs or other suitable solid backing. However, properly sized struts and

suitable hardware can also be used. The load must be evenly distributed to

the anchors without exceeding the recommended anchor limit. Using drywall

screws directly through drywall without a stud is not acceptable. Ensure that

adequate support at all points is provided.

Step 3: Remove the cover. Some cabinets may also require the removal of data

and/or grounding wires. Make sure that this occurs prior to removal of the

door and that they are reconnected when reinstalling the door. On cabinets

with hinges, simply lift the door off the hinges. On cabinets with screws,

remove the cover screws. Appropriately store the cover for future use.

Step 4: On the (4) relay panels only, locate the mounting plate assembly attached to

the back of the enclosure. Locate the 4 mounting screws in the 4 corners of

the rear plate. Loosen these 4 screws. Lift the entire assembly up and out of

the enclosure.

Step 5: Prior to proceeding, refer to conduit entry diagrams on prior pages which

show location of the mounting holes and allowed conduit entry locations for

each cabinet type.

Step 6: Prior to attaching the cabinet to any surface, verify that the top of the cabinet

is actually located at the top. Some cabinets have "up" arrows to aid in this

indication.

Step 7: Attach the cabinet to it’s prepared mounting surface as appropriate.

Step 8: Cut, punch, or remove knockouts for the desired conduit openings.

Pay special attention to any disallowed areas for conduit entry.

Step 9: Pull all wire, both line and low voltage as appropriate.

Step 10: Carefully and completely remove any dust, debris, metal particles, etc. from

inside the cabinet in preparation for wire termination and eventual power up.

Step 11: Proceed to the next section.

Line Voltage & Control Power Termination

Overview of Power Wiring - Feed\Line Wiring

Wiring is simple. All you need is the following:

• Dedicated circuit for control power - Hot, Neutral and Ground

• Individual load wires leaving relays, output circuits.

NOTE: Since the panel is fed from multiple circuits, locate each one and lock-out

each feed in the OFF position.

All cabinets have ample area for conduit entries for feed, load, and control wiring.

Ensure that conduit entry is only in the allowed locations. Refer to diagrams on prior

pages for permitted locations.

Each relay panel has areas dedicated for line voltage wiring and similar orientation.

Relay cabinets have multiple relay circuits of a speciﬁc type depending on the cabinet

model. For details of the different relay types, their capacities, and permitted wire sizes,

please reference the chart on page 9.

Testing the Circuits

Prior to connecting any circuit to a relay, and after all load and feed connections have

been made opposite the relay cabinet, test each circuit by following this procedure:

Step 1: Turn OFF the breaker feeding the circuit.

Step 2: Ensure that all connections and wiring between the relay cabinet and the

circuit breaker panel are complete.

Step 3: Ensure that all connections and wiring between the relay cabinet and the load

are complete.

Step 4: At the relay cabinet, connect the feed(s) for relay #1 to the load for relay

#1 with a wire nut or other appropriate means.

Step 5: Energize the circuit by turning on the circuit breaker.

Step 6: Resolve any mis-wiring, shorts, etc. for the connected circuit.

Step 7: Repeat the above steps for all circuits in all relay panels for your system.

When all circuits have been tested, disconnect all Lines from Loads and

proceed to the next section.

Installing Relay Cards

On several relay cabinet models, the relays are removable. If you have one of these

cabinets and need to add or remove relay modules, please follow these instructions:

Step 1: Locate the appropriate

location for the relay card

Step 2: Align the connector from the relay card with the relay bus board and gently

push the two together.

Step 3: Once ﬁrmly seated, use a Phillips screwdriver to drive the mounting screw

tightly in place.

NOTE: If you need to remove the relay cards that shipped installed from the factory,

remove the shipping screw located near the connector and discard. This

screw is only required for shipping and not for installation.

The digital control panel accepts DMX512 signals, an industry standard signal widely

used in the theater and advanced architectural. This protocol offers fast response and

guaranteed messaging between the controller and the receiving device(s) allowing for

a precision not capable with other control protocols. Incorporating DMX directly into your

device adds the opportunity to use theatrical consoles, theatrical station controls, and

advanced architectural systems to control some or all of the relays in the relay cabinet.

Extended information available in the System Design Guide.

(Information about this guide can be found on page 1)

Requirements

DMX has speciﬁc wiring, wire type, topology, and termination requirements.

Please reference the System Design Guide for additional information on this topic.

Wiring the DMX Connector

Step 1: Connect leads per the following wiring diagram.

Step 2: Twist strands of each lead tightly (making sure that there are no stray strands)

and push ﬁrmly into appropriate plug connector location.

Step 3: Tighten the screws on the plug connector - making sure that no bare

conductor is showing.

Step 4: Tie the Drain/Shield wires together and insulate using a small piece of heat

shrink tubing.

Step 5: Install termination jumpers as required. Termination can be accomplished

on the control board by jumpering the 2 pin header to the left of the DMX

connector.

Operational Mode

DMX has several operational modes which deﬁne how DMX controls the

relay cabinet. The available operational modes are as follows:

• Disabled - The cabinet can be programmed to not listen to DMX

commands. This is useful when you do not have any DMX devices

hooked up to the system.

•

PRI ON - REL OFF - DMX operates in last action mode for DMX channels

at the same priority level as DMX when levels are greater than 0, and

relinquishes control to other channels when the value=0 (last action).

• PRI OFF-REL ON - Relinquishes control to other priority levels when

the DMX channel level is greater than 0, and operates in last action

mode at the priority level of DMX to turn the relays off when the DMX

channel level=0.

• Forced - Means that DMX will always have control over other control

sources of the same priority.
