Annunciator Module  
Introduction  
The SCADA 3000 Annunciator Module is an optional component for use with the SCADA  
3000 system. The module provides 8 programmable LED indicators to display the status of  
assigned I/O points. The LEDs are bi-color (red/amber), which means that each LED is always  
on, thereby preventing a false reading due to a burned-out LED. Red indicates an active or ON  
condition and Amber indicates an inactive or OFF condition. The Annunciator LEDs appear as  
two-state (ON/OFF) outputs in the SCADA 3000 software. The Annunciator module is housed  
in a 1/8 DIN enclosure for convenient panel mounting.  
Technical Support

SCADA 3000 Users Manual  
Installation  
This chapter provides information necessary to install the Annunciator Module. Correctly  
installing the unit will ensure proper functioning and maximum service life. Please read the  
entire chapter before attempting installation.  
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT  
The Annunciator Module should be mounted and operated in a clean, dry and safe environment.  
Do not mount the unit where it will be subject to shock and vibration. Do not mount the unit  
where it will be subject to dirt, dust or moisture. Ideally the unit would be mounted in a steel or  
a fiberglass NEMA-4 enclosure. Do not mount the unit or the expansion modules close to  
motor starters, contactors or relays that switch inductive loads. These devices generate large  
electromagnetic fields that can cause the Annunciator Module to malfunction. Where this is  
unavoidable, mount the module(s) and main unit in a separate, grounded, steel enclosure. This  
will shield them from harmful electrical interference.  
The temperature range the Annunciator Module can operate in is 32°F to 158°F (0°C to 70°C).  
If you require Annunciator Module to operate in a below freezing environment, you must take  
safe and practical measures to keep the modules temperature above 32°F or it will not operate  
reliably.  
CAUTION: The Annunciator Module is a sensitive electronic device. Personnel  
and work area should be grounded before handling this device. Do not install a  
SCADA 3000 system near any strong electrostatic, electromagnetic, magnetic or  
radioactive fields. Do not expose it to fumes or corrosive vapors.  
MOUNTING THE ANNUNCIATOR MODULE  
The Annunciator Module is packaged in a standard 8 DIN enclosure. This style of enclosure is  
designed to be flush-mounted in a panel or door. The module includes all the hardware neces-  
sary for mounting; however, a small Allen wrench will be required to secure the enclosure to the  
panel. To mount the module, cut a hole in the panel according to the dimensions shown in  
Figure 1 below.  
3.58"  
1.73"  
Figure 1: Module Mounting Dimensions  
Remove the two Allen screws on the back of the enclosure and slide out the locking side panels.  
Insert the module into the hole in the panel and slide it back until the front bezel is flush with

Labeling  
The Annunciator Module comes with a blank label on the front on which you can write a de-  
scription to identify each light—such as the corresponding alarm or output. We include addi-  
tional blank labels for your convenience.  
POWER SUPPLY AND GROUNDING  
The Annunciator Module operates on 10-15VDC. Typically the module is powered from the  
AUX PWR terminals on the SCADA 3000 main unit. This is preferred because the AUX PWR  
from the main unit is battery-backed in the event of a power failure, when a battery is connected  
to the main unit. Alternately, you may connect the module to any 10-15VDC power source.  
The module requires 1.5 Watts of power. See Figure 3.

It is extremely important that the EG pin be connected to a good earth ground. This will  
prevent communication errors due to differences in ground potential between modules in  
addition to possible damage due to voltage transients and surges.

SCADA 3000 Users Manual  
COMMUNICATIONS WIRING  
The Annunciator Module communicates with the SCADA 3000 using a high-speed serial  
communications bus. This 4-wire bus is used to connect up to 15 modules to the main unit to  
provide additional inputs and/or outputs. Perform all wiring with power to the main unit and  
modules turned off.  
Modules may be located a maximum of 2000' away from the main unit and should be connected  
in a daisy-chain fashion from one module to the next. Each module connects to the next via a 4-  
wire communications cable connected to the terminals labeled A,B, Z & Y. The cable must be  
4-Conductor Twisted Pair (shielded or unshielded) with a nominal impedance of 120(for  
example, Belden #8132 or 9842 cable). Use one pair for A & B and the other pair for Z & Y. The  
proper wiring from the main unit to the modules, and from module to module, is shown in  
Figure 3:

Figure 4: Incorrect daisy chain setup: Main unit in the middle of the chain.  
The Main Unit should always be on one end of the chain, never in the middle.  
Each module must be configured with its own unique address using the BUS ADDRESS  
jumpers. You may mix & match up to 15 modules to suit your applications requirements. The  
example below shows a Bus Address setting of 9.

Bus Termination  
Located on each module is a jumper labeled BUS TERM. This jumper is used to terminate the  
4-wire communications bus.  
BUS TERM

Figure 6: Bus Termination jumper  
Termination is required at the extreme ends of the communications network to minimize signal  
reflections that would otherwise cause data communication errors. To activate the Bus Termina-  
tion, move the jumper to the IN position. Note that this should only be activated if the module  
is at the very end of the network. All other modules in between should have the termination set  
to the OUT position. As a result, only 1 module should ever have the termination activated.  
The diagram below illustrates proper termination of the communications bus.

How the Annunciator Module Works  
The Annunciator module appears as an output module to the SCADA 3000. When the system  
is powered up, the main unit will scan the external module network and add the Annunciator to  
its list of modules at the address specified by the Bus Address jumpers. An icon for the Annun-  
ciator will also appear on the main unit screen.  
The Annunciator module provides eight LED indicators which can be used to display the status  
of I/O points, system variables, or alarm conditions. The LEDs can be forced on (Red) or off  
(Amber) through the Annunciator module programming screen, or they may be controlled  
automatically using a C-program or Ladder program. The eight LEDs appear in the program-  
ming software as digital outputs numbered from 0-7. To access the Annunciator programming  
screen, click on the Annunciator icon from the Main Unit form or select Modules, then Annun-  
ciator, from the main menu.
