Red Lion G3DN - Manual

1
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The G3 proprietary expansion slot provides a high speed, parallel architecture
that extends the functionality and flexibility of the G3 series HMI. This
approach allows the G3 series to evolve concurrently with the latest advances in
communications and standards, without sacrificing performance. This high
bandwidth channel has significantly greater throughput when compared to the
traditional (external) serial gateway approach.
The G3DN option card is easily installed by removing the rear cover of your
G3 operator interface, attaching the card using three screws and connecting a
single cable. Adding this card gives the operator interface a DeviceNet slave
communications port. It is built with digital isolation to protect the operator
interface from the DeviceNet bus and vice versa. It provides the ability to
communicate to any DeviceNet master. A connector housing is provided to
function as a strain relief for the wires that terminate into the five position
connector. The connector is pluggable for easy removal of the G3 operator
interface from the DeviceNet bus, without disturbing communications with
other devices on the bus.
SAFETY SUMMARY
All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the
literature or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to
prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it. If
equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other
actuators not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially harmful to
persons or equipment in the event of a fault to the controller.
