After all, you are the reason we are in business! Product Description The Trimline series numeric marquees, are our most cost effective numeric marquees.

3 Trimline series marquees are available with or " tall modules. " tall modules provide data visibility up to 125 feet away. " tall modules provide data visibility up to 200 feet away. Trimline series marquees use latched modules instead of multiplexed modules resulting in a brighter and more consistent display. Basic units are constructed using high efficiency red modules, however optional green or amber modules are available. Optional high-brightness red modules are also available for applications with high ambient lighting conditions. Basic single sided NEMA-1 units are housed in a painted steel enclosure designed to be bolted to the wall.

4 Screw terminals are provided within the enclosure for connection of 120 VAC power, 120 VAC or 24 VDC. Start/Stop/Reset inputs and RS-232/RS-485 serial communications. For harsher environments, Trimline marquees are housed in a rugged NEMA-12 enclosure constructed from painted 16 gauge steel with a " acrylic lens. NEMA-12 units are suitable for use in most industrial and factory environments. NEMA-12 enclosures can optionally be upgraded to NEMA-4 specifications. Optional stainless steel enclosures are also available for food processing applications. The Trimline Timer with Light Block is designed to be a versatile solution for most Manual production timing applications.

5 The timer can easily be configured to time up, or down. The timer can automatically reset and start timing again, or halt until a button is pressed. The associated light block can illuminate green, amber, and red over user configurable time spans. TIME. Page 1. Trimline Timer Owners Manual PB-2149-423 Rev A. Unpacking the Unit Every Trimline timer is carefully tested, both mechanically and electrically, before shipment. Inspect the timer for damage, which may have occurred in transit. If there is evidence of damage or the timer fails to operate, file a claim with the shipper and notify American LED-gible. Save the shipping materials for inspection.

6 Carefully remove the timer from the shipping carton. Then mount, or set the timer in a location where the unit is readily visible. The Trimline Timer Circuit Board Take a few moments to become familiar with the Trimline timer circuit board. There are two versions of the board, one with " tall digits, and one with " tall digits. Both versions of the circuit board may be shortened from six digits to four digits by cutting off the two most significant digits of the display. Both boards have eight indicator lamps that can be quite helpful when troubleshooting problems:L1 lights when the start input is asserted, L2 lights when the stop input is asserted, L3 lights when the reset input is asserted, L4.

7 Lights when the n/c input is asserted, L5 lights when the RS-485 transmitter is on; L6 lights when the board is transmitting serial data; L7 lights when the board is receiving serial data; and L8 lights when power is applied to the board.

Power Installation Bring the power and serial communications wiring to the timer separately through conduit, to avoid noise problems. Power wires should be American Wire Gauge #16 with a 600 volt insulation rating. Standard timers are shipped without external connections in the enclosure. Power wiring is terminated within the unit on screw terminals appropriate for 16 AWG wire. Typical power wiring to the timer is shown below. Typical Power Wiring NEUT 1) 120 VAC NEUT.

Typical RS-232 Wiring Connect 120 VAC Neutral to pin 1, 120 VAC Hot to pin 2, and Earth Ground to pin 3. A switch suitable for 120 VAC power may be connected across pins 4 and 5 to control 120 VAC power to the timer. Otherwise pins 4. and 5 of the power connector must be jumpered or the timer will fail to operate. Maximum power draw is 30W per display side. Page 5. Trimline Timer Owners Manual PB-2149-423 Rev A.
