Installation of the Controller

note
  • The installation of the SmartgridOne Controller must be carried out exclusively by certified professional installers.
  • During the installation process, make sure that all components are disconnected from any power source to prevent electrical hazards.

Hardware Installation

Wall-mounted

  1. Accurately measure the hole pattern for the mounting points.

    tip

    The SmartgridOne Controller has a hole pattern of 80mm x 63mm (W x H).
    The screw head should not exceed a diameter of 7mm (e.g., a universal screw of 4 x 40mm is recommended).
    For a flush mount, ensure the screws protrude no more than 8mm from the wall.

  2. Insert the required screws into the surface where the SmartgridOne Controller will be mounted, ensuring they are securely fastened.

  3. Carefully align the SmartgridOne Controller with the installed screws and slide it into place. Ensure it is securely mounted.

DIN-rail mount

  1. Attach the DIN-rail mount to the SmartgridOne Controller using the provided screw holes.

  2. Carefully attach the SmartgridOne Controller to the DIN-rail. Ensure it is securely mounted.

    note

    DIN-rail mounts need to be ordered seperately.

Electrical Installation

Power Supply

The SmartgridOne Controller requires a 12V (2A) DC power supply connected via a 5.5mm port.
The required power adapter is included in the delivery package.

Connecting the interfaces

The SmartgridOne Controller is equipped with various interfaces, all of which feature plug-in connectors for easy installation and connectivity.

The permissible wire cross-section for the connectors is as follows:

TypeSection (AWG)Section (mm²)
Solid Wires26-16 AWG0,129-1,31
Stranded (Flexible) Wires26-16 AWG0,129
note

When using stranded (flexible) wires, it is not necessary to use ferrules for termination.

For serial connections (RS485 and RS232) and digital inputs, it is recommended to use:

  • Shielded Cable: Ensures protection against interference.
  • Twisted Pair Wires: Improves signal integrity and reduces electromagnetic interference.

Avoid using SVV cables or alarm cables, as they are not suitable for these purposes.

warning

The insulation class of the cables must be suitable for the intended signal voltage. Ensure that the cables used comply with the appropriate safety and operational standards for the specific voltage levels in the system.

Network Connection

The SmartgridOne Controller must always be connected to a wired (RJ45) network interface to ensure reliable communication and functionality.
