Order options
VT440 can be ordered in two options:
a) VT440 (x32 dry contact inputs)
b) VT440 + VT32 (x64 dry contact inputs)
Function and purpose
Allows increasing the number of dry contact inputs connected to any Vutlan monitoring unit. Adds 32 dry contacts. Can be connected to any CAN port on a CAN bus chain. Can be chained with other CAN sensors.
The number of dry contacts inside VT440 can be increased up to 64 with an extension module "VT32 / dry contacts module".
Physical description
1. "1...32" - Dry contacts terminal.
2. "33...64" - Dry contacts empty slot. VT32 / Dry contacts board is ordered separately.
3. "S/N" - serial number. You will need this serial number if you want to contact our support team. You mustn't lose it!
4. LEDs: "RUN" - indicates appliance connection status to the main module, "ERR" - indicates appliance lost connection to the main module.
5. "CAN 1", and "CAN 2" - two equivalent digital connectors RJ12 for the connection to the master module, CAN sensors, or CAN extensions on a CAN bus, with auto-sensing.
6. "TR" - is the nearest switch to CAN inputs. This switch should be turned "ON" on the last sensor in the CAN chain. The last sensor in the long chain with a length of more than 10 meters, the terminator should be in the "OFF" position.
Do not use the DIP switch "FR" labeled "1", it should always be OFF. If this switch is turned ON, the module will turn off. This switch is only needed for programming purposes
