Connections
IDP-1200 and Ethernet switch connections consist of control power wiring and communication
connections.
IDP-1200 Control Power
1. If replacing a PanelMate display, cut the existing 24 Vdc control power and ground wires at the
power connector that was used with the PanelMate display.
2. Strip the insulation from each wire so that 0.25 inches (7 millimeters) of conductor is exposed at
the end of each wire.
3. Insert the end of each conductor into the appropriate insertion hole of the supplied power
connector and tighten each terminal screw with a small flat-blade screwdriver. Each insertion hole
of the connector is labeled with its polarity/function. The connector terminal screws have a
maximum torque rating of 5.3 in-lb (N
•m).
4. Attach the power connector to the display panel and secure it to the IDP-1200 with the
connector’s two screws.
Ethernet Switch Control Power
Connect the supplied Ethernet switch power cable wires to 24 Vdc control power. Plug the power cable
connector into the Ethernet switch.
Communication Connections
Use cables terminated with RJ-45 connectors to connect theIDP-1200 and excitation control modules
(ECMs) to the Ethernet switch. The cables must be 8-conductor, with 4 twisted pairs. The connections
made at the Ethernet switch replace the connections previously made at the Multi Drop Adapter (MDA). If
the existing cables to the MDA are used, they must be reconnected and plugged into the J16 jack of the
ECM.
