Do not paint the control facial or obscure any indications, controls, instructions or warnings Section 2: Version notes: Version E** Notes ** The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is a specialised air compressor supervisory and control unit designed to function in cooperation with an air compressor management system. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo can be integrated with a Quincy Powersync air compressor to provide advanced management system supervisory and control functionality. Each Quincy Powersync air compressor in a system, that requires Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo integration, must be equipped with an individual Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo. A Net$ync II™ management system can accommodate multiple Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo devices. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is intended to provide a method of system integration for a Net$ync II™ Powersync air compressor that is not equipped with any inherently available or accessible means of remote connectivity. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will provide all required functionality to enable total synergy with the energy control functions of the Net$ync II™ management system. 3.3 Basic requirements The Quincy Powersync air compressor will likely be equipped with a 1 – 5vDC pressure sensor that is used for regulation control. A Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will accommodate a pressure sensor range of 1.0bar to 600bar. Section 3: Introduction 3.4 Air compressor pressure monitoring 3.1 Net$ync II™ Some Quincy Powersync air compressors are equipped with both an equipment outlet pressure sensor and an internal pressure sensor. The internal pressure sensor is generally used for internal air/oil filtration differential pressure monitoring and/or internal pressure safety functions. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is able to accommodate this requirement without affecting functionality of the compressor control system internal pressure sensor feature(s). Net$ync II™ is the compressor and vacuum system product range of QUINCY COMPRESSOR NV. Net$ync II™ products are used to fully integrate compressed air or vacuum systems on a production site, optimise air or vacuum generation and manage key aspects of the compressed air system with dedicated, but easy to use, visual software. For multiple compressor or vacuum pump installations, Net$ync II™ products can reduce energy usage by well over 30%, typically Page 4 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo 3.5 General operation Most air compressors are equipped with a method of sensing pressure. An air compressor regulates using the compressor package delivery pressure as a control signal. This functionality also enables the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo to continuously compensate for any pressure differential that may occur across local air treatment, along air pipe work or between different locations in a compressed air network. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will automatically compensate for any pressure differential in a system. For example: P PC PS PN 1 – 5 vDC The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo monitors the compressors pressure sensor as an input and simulates the pressure sensor signal as an output. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo uses this method to modify the pressure signal and in turn, manipulate the behaviour of the air compressor. This functionality enables the management system to utilise the compressor in a coherent manner and optimise total system efficiency and maintain air quality. 1 - 5 vDC The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo becomes the air compressor pressure sensor. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo also monitors compressor status and continuously reports status information to the Net$ync II™ management system. This function enables the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo to simulate the features of standard network compressor integration. System pressure and management system ‘target’ pressure information is routinely transmitted to the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo. Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo uses this information to calculate the difference between the compressor delivery pressure and the system ‘target’ pressure. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo utilises pressure signal manipulation to continuously re-align compressor output with system requirements. PD If the Net$ync II™ management system is detecting a network air pressure (PN) of 6.9bar, and the system target pressure requirement (P) is 7.0bar, the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will immediately calculate that a pressure rise of 0.1bar is required to achieve and maintain system target pressure (P). Due to pressure differential across a local compressed air treatment system (PD) the compressor is currently operating at 7.4bar. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will manipulate the compressor pressure signal (PS) to cause the compressor to increase delivery pressure (PC) to 7.5bar. This action will increase system pressure to the required target pressure. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will continuously re-calculate and manipulate the compressor pressure signal (PS) to accommodate changes in demand and compensate for any local or compressed air network pressure differentials. Section 4: Installation 4.1 Guidelines Information regarding the compressor control system, method of operation and regulation settings, is required. Knowledge of Quincy Powersync compressor regulation methods, experience working with compressor control systems and basic principle knowledge of compressed air systems, is also required to be able to successfully install and commission this product.

The ‘Ready’ connection is intended to indicate that the compressor is in a ‘started’ state, has no operational inhibiting fault condition and is ready to respond to Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo regulation without manual intervention. Ready Input The ‘Q485’ is a DIN rail mountable unit designed to be installed within the air compressor control or switchgear area and connected to the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo using a six-wire cable. READY LAMP 0V +V The ‘Q485’ is used for air compressor status monitoring. ALARM RUN READY C04 C01 C02 C04 Q-485 C03 1 2 3 4 5 X01 VSD Box 2 3 4 5 6 The ‘Q485’ uses a 12V to 250V ac/dc input voltage detection system and universal relay contact control outputs (250Vac/dc @ 5A maximum). Integrated directly into the circuits of an air compressor, the ‘Q485’ avoids the need for additional relays or remote inputs. The ‘Q485’ also acts as an electrical barrier between the compressor and the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo providing protection and voltage isolation. 4.10.2 Compressor status monitoring The ‘Q485’ is fitted with a six-pin terminal C04 for compressor monitoring. The ‘Q485’ uses three inputs (Ready, Run and Loaded) to determine air compressor status. All three status-monitoring input signals are required. READY Caution: Do not connect a voltage greater than 250Vac/dc to this input. 6 LED 1 LED 2 1 The READY input will accept 12V to 250V ac (50/60Hz) or dc. This input must be connected to the terminals of a ‘ready’ or ‘operational’ lamp, or other circuit of the air compressor control system, that will be energised when the air compressor is in started (standby or running) condition. The voltage to this input must de-energise when the air compressor is stopped and unavailable to produce air upon a load signal or the Emergency Stop button is pressed or when the air compressor experiences a fault that prevents the air compressor from running. When the air compressor ready lamp, or other control circuit, is energised the ‘Q485’ will detect the voltage and signal the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo that the air compressor is ready and available to load and produce air when a load request signal is given. Note: The ‘Q485’ input common terminal must always be connected to the neutral, common or 0V line of the applied input Ready Input, Alternative Connection Method: In instances where a convenient voltage signal for a air compressor ready condition is not available the ‘Ready’ input can be connected directly to a constant air compressor control system power supply voltage (12V to 250Vac or dc). This will signal the Net$ync II™ Page 9 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo Powersync GATEWAY Vo that the air compressor is ready and available at all times when power is applied to the air compressor. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo has a built-in function to determine when a air compressor is not responding, or is in a shutdown condition, regardless of a constant ready signal. If the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo requests a compressor to run/load, but fails to detect a RUN signal within 60 seconds, the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will regard the air compressor as ‘not ready’ and indicate the air compressor as not available. If a RUN signal is detected at any time, the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will automatically reset the air compressor ‘not ready’ condition and reestablish control. The RUN input will accept 12V to 250V ac (50/60Hz) only (DC cannot be used). Caution: Do not connect a voltage greater than 250V to this input. 12V to 250Vac must be applied to the ‘Run’ terminals when the air compressor motor is running. For a fixed speed air compressor this input can be connected to the control terminals A1 and A2 (coil) of the main starter contactor of the air compressor. When the air compressor control system energises the main contactor, the ‘Q485’ will detect the voltage across the contactor coil terminals and signal the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo that the air compressor is running. MAIN (LINE) CONTACTOR +Vac F1 +V 0V +V 0V AUXILIARY SWITCH 0Vac READY ALARM Safety: Never connect the READY input positive connection directly to the output of a control system transformer; always connect after a fuse or circuit breaker. If a normally closed contact of an Emergency Stop button is included in the air compressor power supply circuit, connect after the Emergency Stop button contacts. This will instantly indicate an air compressor ‘not ready’ condition if the Emergency Stop button is activated. RUN READY C04 Alternatively, if the main contactor coil voltage is greater than 250Vac, a contactor auxiliary switch can be used to apply a suitable voltage to the ‘Run’ input terminals. Note: The ‘Q485’ input common terminal must always be connected to the neutral, common or 0V line of the applied input voltage. LOADED ALARM = LOAD RUNNING MAIN (LINE) CONTACTOR 0V +V ALARM RUN C04 READY The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo uses the ‘Q485’ ALARM input to detect the load condition of the air compressor. There is no Alarm input facility on the ‘Q485’ when used with a Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo. An auxiliary ‘Alarm’ input terminal within the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is available. Note: A fault, which stops the air compressor, and/or prevents the air compressor from running, is determined from the ‘Run’ and ‘Ready’ inputs; Alarm detection is optional and is not a requirement.

Pressure Switch Regulation: For air compressors fitted with an electromechanical pressure switch a six-pin terminal C02 has been provided to enable connection to a pressure switch that has a two wire or three-wire connection. C04 4.10.3 Pressure switch regulation control In ‘Pressure Control’ mode the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will also control the ‘Q485’ load/unload relay outputs in accordance with the set load and unload pressure set points. The ‘Q485’ load/unload relay contacts can be used for air compressor controllers that have ‘pressure switch’ load/unload regulation (fixed speed and variable speed types). When connected the pressure switch remains in circuit. If the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is stopped or experiences a failure or loss of power, pressure control will automatically revert back to the pressure switch and the air compressor will continue to operate in ‘Local’ mode. Note: The NC (normally closed) and NO (normally open) terminal references of the ‘Q485’ are related to internal connection functions and should not be referenced to the connections of an air compressor pressure switch (which will generally be in reverse order).

The Net$ync II™ management device will also remove the air compressor from the sequence strategy and substitute with an alternative available air compressor if necessary. When the ‘Service Maintenance Switch’ inputs are open circuit again the air compressor will automatically be accepted back in to the sequence strategy and will be utilised as and when next required. The use of a ‘key switch’ is recommended for this purpose and to prevent the switch contacts being inadvertently left in the closed circuit condition after service maintenance is complete. DO NOT connect any external voltage source to the pins of terminal C05. Note: This function is only available with management unit models equipped with ‘Service Maintenance Switch’ functionality. For Net$ync II™ management units that do not provide this function the pins of terminal C05 must not be utilised. Activating the ‘Service Maintenance Switch’ function with a Net$ync II™ management device not equipped for the function will disrupt the ‘Air compressor Loaded’ detection facility. 4.10.5 Auxiliary alarm input The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is equipped with an auxiliary ‘Alarm’ input.

The input can also be used to detect an ‘Alarm’ condition of auxiliary equipment associated with the air compressor. As default the auxiliary ‘Alarm’ input is normally open, Alarm on closed circuit condition. If required this can be reversed in the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo setup menu to be normally closed, alarm on open circuit. 4.10.6 Auxiliary trip input The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is equipped with an auxiliary ‘Trip’ input. The input can be used to detect an air compressor shutdown trip condition. The input can also be used to monitor other auxiliary equipment associated with the air compressor and initiate an air compressor trip condition. The management system unit will regard the trip as a air compressor shutdown trip and will remove the air compressor from sequence; the air compressor will run-on for the air compressor controller’s set run-on time and stop.

These two output functions are internally connected and a short circuit condition and/or malfunction may result. 4.10.4 Service maintenance switch Aux Trip As default the auxiliary ‘Trip’ input is normally open, Trip on closed circuit condition. If required this can be reversed in the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo setup menu to be normally closed, trip on open circuit. Note: The maximum cable length for Auxiliary ‘Alarm’ or ‘Trip’ inputs is 100m. 4.10.7 Remote outputs Air compressor running: Page 13 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is equipped with a volt-free relay contact output (R5) to indicate when the air compressor is detected as running. The output contacts will close when the air compressor is running. Check and ensure all pressure sensor, output pressure signal and ‘Q485’ connections are correctly installed and secure. 5.3 Air compressor pressure set points Group Alarm: The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is equipped with a volt-free relay contact output (R6) to indicate Group Alarm. The Group Alarm relay contacts are normally closed and will open in the following conditions:1) Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo power failure 2) Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo internal fault condition 3) Input pressure sensor fault 4) Air compressor ‘Not Ready’ R6 R5 31 32 33 34 X09 Group Alarm Compressor Running X08 Establish the following pressure set point values from the air compressor control system. Establishing the correct air compressor pressure set point values is critical to successful Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operation. 1) Air compressor ‘Load’ pressure set point. The pressure at which the air compressor will start/load. 2) Air compressor ‘Unload’ pressure set point. The pressure at which the air compressor will stop/offload. 3) The maximum Delivery pressure level (and maximum internal pressure level if used) set in the air compressor controller. This value will be the Excess or High pressure Alarm safety level. Relay contact rating: CE: 250V @ 4A max UL: 115V @ 4A max COMPRESSOR Pressure Set Points Excess or Alarm Pressure 5.0 Commissioning 0.5bar (7psi) 5.1 Commissioning procedure Unload Pressure It is recommended that installation and commissioning be carried out by an authorised and trained product supplier. Information regarding the compressor control system, method of operation and regulation settings, is required. Knowledge of Net$ync II™ Powersync air compressor regulation methods, experience working with compressor control systems and basic principle knowledge of compressed air systems, is also required to be able to successfully install and commission this product. 5.2 Physical checks Before applying power to the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo ensure that the power supply connections are correct and secure and that the operating voltage selector is set correctly for the power supply voltage in use; 115Vac or 230Vac (+-10%), 50/60Hz; see ‘Installation’. 0.5bar (7psi) Load Pressure If the air compressor pressure set points have been set with small differentials then the pressure set points of the air compressor will require adjustment before proceeding. It is recommended that the pressure differential between the ‘load’ and ‘unload’ pressures is a minimum of 10 psi. 5.4 Vo Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY configuration Apply power to the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo. If the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo automatically starts (the green started indicator illuminates or flashes) press the STOP button. Page 14 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo Using the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo menu routines set the ‘IC’ (I/O Configuration - Type) item of menu P03 to the correct setting for the pressure sensor input/output configuration. See ‘Installation Configurations’ and ‘Menu Items’. If an ‘Internal’ pressure sensor is in use press DOWN to view the ‘P2’ pressure value in the User menu ‘items’ display. The ‘P2’ value display should show a pressure value; for example 0.0 bar. If the display shows dashes (- - - -) check the ‘Internal’ pressure sensor connections. Note: Wire polarity is important. 5.5 Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo network address Using the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo menu routines set the ‘Ad’ (Airbus485™ Network Address) item of menu P03 to the Net$ync II™ management system controller air compressor identification number (1 to 12). Each air compressor in a system must have a unique Airbus485™ network address (air compressor identification number) and each must correspond to the Net$ync II™ management system setup. 5.6 Input pressure sensor(s) The offset and range of the pressure sensor(s) used on the air compressor must be established for Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo pressure sensor calibration. Generally this information is indicated on the pressure sensor label. The majority of pressure sensor(s) have a minimum pressure (offset) of 0(zero) bar gauge with a ‘range’ applicable to the application. For example “0.0 – 16.0 bar” where 0(zero) bar is the ‘offset’ minimum and 16.0 bar is the ‘range’ or maximum. Some pressure sensor(s) have non-zero offset. For example -1.0 (minus 1bar) to 15bar; this type of pressure sensor can measure negative or vacuum pressure. In this instance the ‘offset’ is “–1.0 bar” (minus 1bar) and the ‘range’ is 16.0 bar. Remember the ‘range’ is the difference between the minimum and maximum values and not the maximum value referenced to 0(zero) bar ‘atmospheric’. The correct ‘offset’ and ‘range’ values of each pressure sensor are required for Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo ‘input’ pressure sensor calibration. The main value display should show a pressure value; for example 0.0 bar. If the display shows dashes (- - - -) check the ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor connections. Note: Wire polarity is important. At this stage the displayed pressure values will probably be incorrect; this is normal. Calibrate the input ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor, and input ‘Internal’ pressure sensor if used, following the input ‘Pressure Sensor Calibration’ procedure below: Input and Output pressure calibration is critical for successful Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operation. 5.7 Input pressure sensor calibration Using the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo menu navigation procedure, select menu page P04 (Input Pressure Calibration). The ‘items’ of this menu enable calibration of the pressure sensor(s) connected to the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo. Enter the ‘OFFSET’ value for the ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor in the ‘Do’ menu item. For example: if the pressure sensor is (0 to 16.0 bar) enter ’0.0 bar’ as the offset value; if the pressure sensor is (–1.0 to 15 bar) enter ’1.0 bar’ (minus 1bar) as the offset value. Enter the ‘RANGE’ value for the ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor in the ‘Dr’ menu item. For example: if the pressure sensor is (0 to 16.0 bar) enter ’16.0 bar’ as the range value; if the pressure sensor is (–1.0 to 15 bar) then the range value is also ‘16.0 bar’. When the ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor offset and range menu items are selected the menu page display value will change to show the actual detected ‘Delivery’ pressure measurement. This value can be used to compare with a ‘known’ pressure applied to the ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor for accurate calibration purposes. An independent and accurate means of measuring the applied pressure is required. 1) Subject the ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor to atmosphere (0bar). 2) Adjust the ‘Do’ pressure ‘offset’ value until Page 15 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo the ‘Delivery’ pressure displayed by the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo shows 0(zero) bar. 3) Apply a known pressure to the ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor. It is recommended that the applied pressure is representative of normal working pressure levels. It is not important if the applied pressure is static or continuously fluctuating. 4) Adjust the ‘Dr’ pressure ‘range’ value until the ‘Delivery’ pressure displayed by the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo shows the same as the ‘known’ applied pressure. If an ‘Internal’ pressure sensor is also in use, follow the same procedure described above applying adjustments to the ‘Io’ (Internal offset) and ‘Ir’ (Internal range) menu items. When these menu items are selected the menu page display value will change to show the actual detected ‘Internal’ pressure measurement. 5.8 Output Pressure Signal Calibration Using the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo menu navigation procedure, select menu page P05 (Output Pressure Calibration). The ‘items’ of this menu enable calibration of the pressure signal(s) transmitted to the air compressor controller. 3) Apply a known pressure to the input ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor. It is recommended that the applied pressure is representative of normal working pressure levels. It is not important if the applied pressure is static or continuously fluctuating. 4) Adjust the ‘Dr’ pressure signal ‘range’ value until the compressor controller’s delivery pressure display value shows the same as the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo delivery pressure. If an ‘Internal’ pressure sensor is also in use, follow the same procedure described above applying adjustments to the ‘Io’ (Internal offset) and ‘Ir’ (Internal range) pressure output signal menu items. When these menu items are selected the menu page display value will change to show the actual detected ‘Internal’ pressure measurement. It is recommended that Input and Output pressure calibration is examined, and adjusted if necessary, on a routine periodic basis. 5.9 Pressure Set Points Establishing and implementing the correct pressure set points is critical for successful Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operation. Enter the ‘OFFSET’ value for the ‘Delivery’ pressure signal in the ‘Do’ menu item. Set this value will to same as the initial ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor input ‘offset’. Using Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo menu navigation, select menu page P03 (Configuration). Enter the ‘RANGE’ value for the ‘Delivery’ pressure signal in the ‘Dr’ menu item. Set this value to the same as the initial ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor input ‘range’. 1) Set the ‘Dm’ (Delivery Pressure Maximum Limit) to the air compressor’s ‘Excess Delivery Pressure Alarm’ or ‘Immediate Stop’ pressure setting. When the output ‘Delivery’ pressure signal offset and range menu items are selected the menu page display value will change to show the actual detected input ‘Delivery’ pressure measurement. This value represents the pressure the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is attempting to transmit to the air compressor controller and can be used to compare with the air compressor controller’s displayed pressure value. 2) If an ‘Internal’ pressure sensor is in use set the ‘Im’ (Internal Pressure Maximum Limit) to the air compressor’s ‘Excess Internal Pressure Alarm’ pressure setting. Typically this value will be at least 0.8bar (12psi) above the excess or alarm ‘delivery’ pressure limit. 1) Subject the input ‘Delivery’ pressure sensor to atmosphere (0bar). 1) Set the ‘Pu’ (Unload) pressure set point to the air compressor’s ‘Unload’ pressure set point value. 2) Adjust the ‘Do’ pressure signal ‘offset’ value until the compressor controller’s delivery pressure display value shows 0(zero) bar. 2) Set the ‘PL’ (Load) pressure set point to the compressor’s ‘Load’ or ‘Target’ pressure set Using Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo menu navigation, select menu page P01 (Pressure Set Points). Page 16 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo point value. Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo Pressure Set Point Control: When the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo ‘loads’ the air compressor it will force the output ‘Delivery’ pressure signal to a pressure value 0.2bar (3psi) below the set ‘Unload’ pressure set point. This manipulation will force the compressor to respond to the low pressure value and the compressor will load. When the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo detects the air compressor has loaded the pressure signal is returned to normal active ‘pressure control’ values. When the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo ‘unloads’ the air compressor it will force the output ‘Delivery’ pressure signal to a pressure value 0.2bar (3psi) above the set ‘Unload’ pressure set point. This manipulation will force the air compressor to respond to the high pressure value and the air compressor will unload. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will hold this pressure value to maintain offload operation regardless of actual delivery pressure fluctuations.

See ‘Commissioning - Pressure Set Points’ 5.11.3 Error log menu The first item of the log error menu is the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operational hours (Hr). This is an indication of the accumulated hours the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY VO has been operational and is used to time-stamp fault codes in the error log. The hours counter has no other function. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operating hours counter is NOT intended as a measure of compressor operation or running hours; the hours counter will differ from, and operate independently from, the compressor hours counter. Each error log item will show the fault code alternating with the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operational hours when the fault occurred. The error log stores the last 15 faults in chronological order; item ‘01’ is the most recent fault. 5.11.4 Pressure units select Selects the display pressure units (bar, psi or kPa) 5.11.5 Network address System network address; must be set to the compressor identification number used by the management system controller for the compressor (1 to 12). Each air compressor in a system must have a unique identification number. 5.11.6 Pressure averaging factor Pressure corrections supplied by the Net$ync II™ management system are averaged to prevent abrupt changes and enable smooth and controlled pressure adjustments. The Net$ync II™ management device updates pressure information approximately every two seconds. The ‘Pressure Averaging Factor’ is the number of previous pressure corrections that are used for averaging. For example: a Page 19 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo factor of ‘2’ will average the most recent pressure correction value received with the previous two values received. If system volume is large and/or pressure variations are slow a higher ‘Pressure Averaging Factor’ can be used to dampen response and smooth control pressure changes. If system volume is small and/or pressure variations are fast a lower ‘Pressure Averaging Factor’ should be used to enable a faster response. In some instances pressure differential across air treatment and/or small diameter pipework can result in sudden and abrupt changes in detected pressure. A higher ‘Pressure Averaging Factor’ can be used to dampen this effect. 5.11.7 Input Configuration (Type) Determines the pressure detection signal type. 1: 0.0VDC to 5.0VDC Pressure Sensor(s) 2: 1.0VDC to 5.0VDC Pressure Sensor(s) 3: 0.4VDC to 4.5VDC Pressure Sensor(s) In many instances where a 0 to 5vDC pressure sensor is indicated the actual operation is not 0 to 5vDC. If in doubt, seek confirmation from the original equipment manufacturer. 5.11.8 Internal pressure sensor enable 0: No internal pressure sensor connected controller without alteration. This is intended as a safety feature that will allow the safety functions of the air compressor controller to respond to excess pressure situations. Note: Internal air compressor pressure will increase over time with an increase in air/oil separator element differential and will generally be 0.8bar (12psi) above delivery pressure. 5.11.11 Pressure calibration Input and Output pressure calibration is critical to the successful operation of Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo functions and must be examined, and adjusted if necessary, periodically on a routine basis. See ‘Commissioning - Pressure Sensor Calibration’. 5.11.12 Auxiliary alarm input configuration Determines the input configuration for the auxiliary Alarm input: ‘0’ – Normally open, Alarm when closed ‘1’ – Normally closed, Alarm when open 6 Auxiliary Trip Input Configuration Determines the input configuration for the auxiliary Trip input: ‘0’ – Normally open, Trip when closed ‘1’ – Normally closed, Trip when open 1: Internal pressure function enabled 5.11.13 Analogue output function If the internal pressure sensor function is disabled (0) the second analogue output will replicate the first analogue output 5.11.9 Delivery pressure maximum level If the detected Delivery pressure input exceeds this setting ‘Pressure Control’ is disabled and the detected Delivery pressure (and Internal pressure if in use) is transmitted directly to the air compressor controller without alteration. This is intended as a safety feature that will allow the safety functions of the air compressor controller to respond to excess pressure situations. 5.11.10 Internal pressure maximum level If the detected internal pressure input exceeds this setting ‘Pressure Control’ is disabled and the detected Delivery and Internal pressure is transmitted directly to the air compressor The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo controller is equipped with a 4-20mA auxiliary output. The output can be used to remotely signal the selected analogue value. ‘0’ – Disabled ‘9’ – Detected Delivery pressure ‘10’ – Detected Internal pressure 5.11.14 Error log reset Adjust to ‘RST’ and press ENTER to clear and reset the ‘Error Log’ menu. 5.11.15 Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operating hours Allows adjustment of the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operating hours counter.

The run indicator (9) will illuminate or flash. The air compressor must be in a started state (running or in standby) before Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo pressure control will function. When started the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will begin to manipulate the pressure signal(s) to the air compressor controller – ‘Pressure Control’ is active. Pressure Control will de-activate automatically if communications with the system management controller is disrupted or not connected; the detected pressure from the pressure sensor(s) is retransmitted to the air compressor control directly. When communications are reestablished the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will automatically re-activate ‘Pressure Control’. Page 22 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo 7.6 Stop Press STOP to de-activate Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo pressure control. The run indicator (9) will extinguish. When stopped the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will not manipulate or adjust the pressure signal(s) to the air compressor controller; the detected pressure from the pressure sensor(s) is re-transmitted to the air compressor control directly. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will report that the air compressor is ‘Not Available’ to the Net$ync II™ system management controller when the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is in a stopped condition. Note: During air compressor service or routine maintenance the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo can be stopped to return the air compressor to normal local pressure regulation. 7.7 Delivery Output Pressure: The delivery output pressure is manipulated during ‘Pressure Control’ and will differ from the actual ‘Input Delivery’ pressure displayed as the main display value. Pressure control function can be observed by comparing the ‘Output’ delivery pressure with the actual detected ‘Input’ delivery pressure. The two pressures will be identical when ‘Pressure Control’ is not active. Internal Output Pressure: The internal output pressure is manipulated during ‘Pressure Control’ to simulate and maintain the actual detected differential between the ‘Input’ delivery pressure and the ‘Input’ Internal pressure. This functionality allows compressor controller differential pressure monitoring functions to be maintained regardless of Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo output pressure signal manipulation. Compressor status Powersync GATEWAY Vo Interface Status: The detected status of the compressor is indicated by the Powersync GATEWAY Vo Interface display status symbols (see Status Symbols) 7.8.1 Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo status The central ‘item’ display value (B) is the compressor system identification number (network address number). This is the same as the compressor system identification number shown on the system management controller. Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operation is indicated by the ‘Run’ LED indicator (see Indicators). Pressure Control status is indicated by the ‘pressure’ status symbols (see Status Symbols). The ‘right hand’ display value indicates the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo status condition (see Status Block Diagram). 7.9 Power failure auto restart is always active and cannot be de-activated. User menu items To view the ‘User Menu Items’ press UP or DOWN. The ‘Item’ display value will scroll through the available items.

For Example: Network Address = 1 (Compressor 1) State Block = 3 (Ready To Start) The ‘status block number’ enables Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo operational status to be established from the status block diagram. STARTED: The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is in a started state. The START button has been pressed or the Auto-Restart has started the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo. The ‘Active’ indicator (9) will be illuminated or flashing. the pressure signal(s) but will switch the ‘Q485’ load/unload relay contacts. The detected pressure(s) are transmitted directly to the air compressor controller. NO RESPONSE: The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is attempting to run and load the air compressor but the air compressor is not responding. The ‘Active’ indicator (9) will flash. GATEW Fault When the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo fails to detect the correct air compressor ‘running’ and ‘loaded’ signals the ‘Q485’ load relay will pulse every 10 seconds. If the air compressor fails to respond within 60 seconds the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will regard the air compressor as ‘not available’. The Net$ync II™ management system will indicate that the air compressor is not available and will remove the compressor from sequence. The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will continue to pulse the ‘Q485’ load relay every 10 seconds. If the air compressor was shutdown or stopped, and is manually re-started, the load pulses will cause the air compressor to start and run. This action will automatically reset the ‘not available’ condition. If the appropriate air compressor status signals are re-established the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will automatically reset the ‘not available’ condition and pressure control will resume. The Net$ync II™ management system will automatically reset and accept the air compressor back into sequence. PRESSURE CONTROL: The Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo is regulating the air compressor. If communications with the management system exist the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will manipulate the pressure signal(s) and switch the ‘Q485’ load/unload relay contacts. If no communications with the Net$ync II™ management system exist the Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo will not manipulate Page 24 NO RES Ready = False STOP R = Fa Ready = False STOP NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo 8.0 Parts List Net$ync II™ Powersync GATEWAY Vo Item Part No. Description Kit 2014000040 Kit, Net$ync II™ Powersync Vo 2014000029 Unit, Q485 4 XPM-Vo2 XPM-PSU24 - 1 3 5 2 1 6 9.0 Technical data 7 Q485 Unit, Powersync GATEWAY Vo Dimensions Weight Mounting Enclosure Supply Power Temperature Humidity 291mm x 241mm x 152mm 6.5kg (14lb) wall, 4 x screw fixings IP54, NEMA 12 230Vac +/- 10% 115Vac +/- 10% 50VA 0°C to 46°C (32°F to 115°F) 95% RH non-condensing Installation and Mounting Dimensions 24mm 238mm 24mm 236mm 188mm 8mm Ø 286mm Page 25 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo Wiring diagram X09 Group Alarm R5 R5 Compressor Running A-GN D C038 Ai2 C039 A-GN D C040 Ai3 C024 C044 C045 C046 C047 X02 9 10 7 8 C049 SEQ GND 6 + 5 +20VDC Di2 Ready/Run Di6 Load/Service - GND R4 LOAD R1 SEQ 3 X01 4 24Vac 2 R1 R3 GND 2 C043 1 3 2 X03 1 X02 2 Ao1 + 1 1-5VD C 0-5VD C 0.5-4.5VD C 24VDC X01 + - 1 2 Ao2 + + + Internal P. > OUT Delivery P. > OUT 3 L2 L1 X05 2 1 2 XPM-Vo2 1 2 1 X01 X02 24VDC 24Vac 230Vac 10% 115Vac 10% XPM-PSU24 L N E J1 1 X03 C042 R2 GND i-PCB 10k 0Vac X01 XPM-TAC24 X02 E E + X06 +C Di7 Aux Alarm +C Di8 Aux Trip C025 R4 2 X05 C026 X04 C027 X03 17 18 19 20 21 22 X04 C028 Di5 +C Di4 Speed Signal +C Di3 +C 13 14 15 16 C029 R3 R2 R1 RS485#2 L2 L1 X01 24Vac 1 1 2 Ao - A-G ND 11 12 C030 C041 L Internal P. < IN C032 C031 C048 N Ai2 A-GND - Ai1 not used 23 24 X06 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 C+ Ao C0 33 X03 L2 L1 RS485#1 X07 X08 Airbus485 XPM485 Delivery P. < IN C0 34 A- GN D L2 Airbus485 L1 Network + C037 Ai3 +VDC X07 C036 Ai1 X05 25 26 27 28 29 30 C035 +VD C + 4 3 R6 2 31 32 33 34 1 R5 X02 R6 R6 X08 C023 S1 Controller Powersync VOC Vo 10.0 Page 26 NET$YNC II™ POWERSYNC GATEWAY Vo XPM-TAC24 Power supply unit BLUE BLACK ORANGE BROWN RED WHITE GREEN VIOLET 1 T3.15A T1.6A T1.6A T1.0A FH4 FH3 FH2 FH5 2 3 4 X04 1 VOLTAGE SELECT 2 3 4 230V +-10% 230V 115V 115V +-10% IEC 5x20mm T1.0A 1 X02 X03 2 1 2 X01 24Vac/1 isolated 1 2 2 1 X01 PSU24 X03 X04 + - + - + - 1 2 1 2 1 2 +VDC(1) - + 1 2 LED2 X02 0VDC X05 +8VDC X02 - ANA1 #1 + ANA1 0V X01 +24VDC X04 0VDC #2 LED1 ANA2 + L1 screen L2 X03 Vo2 +24VDC 3 +VDC(2) RS485 X05 1 0Vac 2 24Vac 3 E XPM-PSU24 (24Vac to 24VDC) ANA2 - 1 LED1 2 E NL E XPM-Vo2 (Analogue Output) 3 4 2 N L 24Vac/2 earthed 3 FH1 LED 1 LED 2 XPM-Vo2 setup 0.5-4.5VDC 1-5VDC 0-5VDC 0.5-4.5VDC 0.5-4.5VDC 1-5VDC 0-5VDC 1-5VDC 0.5-4.5VDC 1-5VDC 0-5VDC 0-5VDC Page 27 ">
