12. SAM2 RMS03 Reduced Energy Cooling System (REC)


The reduced energy cooling ventilation system (also know n as free cooling ventilation system) is an optional item part of the SAM2 RMS03 system applicable to indoor shelter type sites. The purpose of the REC ventilation system is threefold: Reduction in operational costs by reducing total energy consumption of the indoor shelter sites by up to 85% or more. To provide adequate ventilation during hybrid battery discharge cycles, when the site is pow ered from the standby batteries and the generator and air conditioner units are sw itched off. Under extreme conditions w hen the indoor shelter temperature is abnormally high, to assist w ith the cooling process if the air conditioner units cannot adequately regulate the shelter temperature. The REC ventilation system operates on the principal of regulating the shelter inside temperature according to a predefined user configurable threshold, relative to the outside ambient temperature. Thus if the regulated temperature is set to 30 degrees for example, provided the outside ambient temperature is low er than the inside shelter temperature, the ventilation system w ill regulate the shelter temperature using the ventilation fan at variable speeds to control the temperature and not the air conditioner units. Only if the ventilation fan cannot maintain the regulated inside shelter temperature threshold or if the outside ambient temperature is higher than the inside shelter temperature, w ould the air conditioner units be activated. The SAM2 RMS03 free cooling ventilation system consists of the follow ing items: (all metal parts made from 304 stainless steel): Inlet Louver Assembly Passive Pre-filter Cartridge Outlet Louver and DC Fan Assembly Inlet Louver Assembly The inlet louver grill assembly should be fitted to the bottom center of the shelter door, not to obstruct the door mechanism nor the doorstopper.

13. SAM2 RMS03 Mains, Phase and Frequency Sensor


The SAM2 RMS03 controller through the cable termination unit makes use of a sensor type Mains, Phase and Frequency monitoring unit (MPF) to accurately detect any mains or phase related failures. The unit also provides an analogue indication of the mains supply frequency. The purpose of the MPF sensor is to detect the presence or absence of mains supply from the utility supplier or generator output (mains load supply into the radio base station). Thus, should the utility provider provide the mains supply source, the MPF monitor w ould detect if mains is present on all phases as w ell as the frequency of the supply. Should the generator provide the mains supply, the MPF monitor w ould detect whether the generator is providing a mains supply output on all phases as w ell as the frequency of the supply. The mains/phase indications are used by the SAM2 RMS03 controller to determine if the mains supply (utility or generator) is pow ering the radio base station, thus confirming ATS contactor operation. The MPF does not distinguish betw een utility or generator supply, but merely if the load supply to the radio base station is w ithin operational limits. Failure of both the utility supply and/or generator to provide an AC load supply w ould cause the SAM2 RMS03 controller to report the relevant mains and/or phase related alarms. The mains, phase and frequency alarms are masked for a period of five minutes (default) to provide ample time betw een utility and generator contactor switchover before activation of any alarms. (alarm mask period to avoid any unw anted alarms during generator start/stop sequence) The MPF sensor is mounted in the rectifier AC distribution section (after the AVR if fitted), normally located w ithin the BTS shelter. The MPF w ould indicate an active alarm state should the input voltage of any phase drop below 187VAC (220VAC-15%)

Take note of the follow ing setpoints during (REC)/free cooling operation: (Refer to SAM2 RMS03 ECT Manual for more detailed information) Emergency Fan On Setpoint (A): Shelter temperature at w hich DC ventilation fan w ould be activated at full speed together w ith both air conditioner unit. (normally w hen air conditioners are not capable of regulating shelter temperature) Room Temp Regulate Setpoint (B): Refers to the temperature setpoint at w hich the shelter must be regulated w hen using the DC ventilation fan instead of the air conditioner units. (pressing the w iz button activates the software w izard which automatically adjusts all REC/aircon settings to most optimal based upon configured regulate temperature) Room Temp Regulate Hysteresis (C): The temperature hysteresis value below the regulate setpoint (B) at w hich the air conditioner units w ill be sw itched off and the DC ventilation fan used for cooling. Fan Cooling Enable Temperature Differential (D): Minimum temperature value that the outside temperature must be low er than the shelter temperature for the DC ventilation fan to operate. The fan w ill start full speed (max RPM) and decrease in speed as the temperature differential decreases to zero. Aircon Humidity On Setpoint (E): Shelter relative humidity at w hich aircons would be activated to regulate humidity below this setpoint. Aircon Humidity Off Setpoint (F): Shelter relative humidity at w hich aircon would be stopped and DC ventilation fan activated for cooling purposes. Fan to Aircon Sw itchover Temp (G): Shelter temperature setpoint at w hich air conditioner units w ould be started to take over from the DC ventilation fan. DC Fan REC Enable Humidity Diff (H): Shelter relative humidity hysteresis value below the aircon on setpoint (E) at w hich the air conditioner units w ill be sw itched off and the DC ventilation fan used for cooling. Hybrid Aircon Run Time (I): Minimum time period that air conditioner units w ould be activated w hen Hybrid discharge cycle fails due to high temperature (REC cooling deactivated due to high temperature). Aircon Service Interval (J): Run hour interval at w hich air conditioner units are due for servicing Fan Speed Control (K): When selected, enables DC fan variable speed

Installation Steps: Sensor cable pinouts:

Note: Should the mains voltage per phase be above 187Vac, the red LED corresponding to the input w ill be active (on). Should the voltage of any phase drop below 187Vac, the corresponding LED w ould be off and a phase alarm generated. All mains, phase and frequency alarms are masked for a period of five minutes upon activation of a utility grid failure alarm. This ensures adequate time for all contactors to switch over between utility and generator load supply (generator starting). Should the batteries be fully charged at this moment, hybrid battery discharge w ould be activated and all mains, phase and frequency alarms masked for the entire duration of the battery discharge cycle. All mains, phase and frequency alarms are instant w hen utility grid supply is present. Thus alarms w ill be activated w hen utility grid supply is present, how ever no mains or phase voltage detected by the MPF sensor. During installation testing phase, refer to the SAM2 RMS03 craft terminal software application (SAM2 RMS03 ECT) or LCD display to verify true unmasked alarm status Diagnostics View Inputs

14. SAM2 RMS03 Utility Grid Sensor


The SAM2 RMS03 controller through the cable termination unit and generator controller makes use of an optional AC Mains sensor (ACM) to accurately detect any utility grid failures. The ACM sensor w ould not be required should the utility grid supply already be monitored by the ATS/AMF and an alarm output provided accordingly or should the site have no utility grid supply. The ACM w ould indicate an active alarm state should the input voltage of the utility mains supply, per phase, drop below 187VAC (220VAC-15%)

Connect MPF sensor cable to the SAM2 RMS03 cable termination unit +12v (orange/w hite), MF (blue/w hite), PF (orange) and GD/-12v (blue) connection of MPF Unit screw terminal connection. MF refers to Mains/Frequency alarms and PF refers to Phase Fail alarm. Ensure that the cable w ith the side marked MPF Sensor is plugged into the RJ9 socket of the MPF sensor. Wire the mains live supply for phase 1,2 and 3 by looping a connection from the output of the mains supply load MCB to the MPF phase 1,2 and 3 live inputs (ensure mains supply is monitored after the load MCB in case of tripping) Wire the mains neutral by looping a connection from the neutral bar to the neutral input of the MPF sensor.

The ACM sensor could be used in tw o applications: To monitor the AC pow er distribution through the ATS, to ensure correct contactor operation (default). Input one is used to monitor the utility grid relay contactor, input tw o to monitor the load output contactor and input three the DG relay contactor. The corresponding LED w ould be off, should the input voltage drop below 187Vac and the applicable alarm output activated. To monitor each phase of the utility grid supply and provide an alarm output once any phase voltage drops below 187Vac, the corresponding LED w ould be off and a phase alarm generated for the relevant phase.

Note: The ACM sensor is optional and only required on utility grid sites.

15. SAM2 RMS03 Battery Bank Voltage and Current Monitor


The SAM2 RMS03 controller through the cable termination unit makes use of a sensor type 4-20mA Hall Effect current probe (BCP battery current probe) to measure the battery bank charge or discharge current during hybrid cycles. The sensor accurately measures the battery load: Charge current, during utility grid or generator operation Discharge current, during battery discharge cycle (hybrid mode) The battery bank voltage is monitored directly by the SAM2 RMS03 controller DC input supply. The battery voltage of the supply feeding the RMS controller is constantly being monitored. For this reason, make sure that the SAM2 RMS03 controller is pow ered directly from the battery bank supply (priority feed), using a suitable 10A circuit breaker.

The ACM sensor is located w ithin the generator or ATS in close proximity w ith the AMF panel. Make use of the ACM sensor cable (4-pair open ended to open ended, 3m, part of w iring cable kit). Connect the one end of the 4-pair cable to the ACM sensor as follow s (top output terminals): Blue Positive Supply terminal 5 (+12v) Blue/w hite Negative Supply terminal 1 (-12Vdc) Orange Utility AC Mains Fail Alarm terminal 2 Orange/w hite Utility AC Mains Fail Ground Reference terminal 1 Green Utility on Load Alarm terminal 3 Green/w hite Utility on Load Ground Reference terminal 1 Brow n DG on Load Alarm terminal 4 Brow n/white DG on Load Ground Reference terminal 1

Battery Current Probe (BCP) This sensor makes use of hall-technology, in order to measure dc currents with reference to battery charge or discharge currents. This measurement technique makes it possible to measure current w ithout any electrical connections to the conductor being measured. The unit simply clamps onto the terminal to be monitored and the installation can therefore be done on live terminals (no need for disconnection) This measurement probe is unique in the sense that it has a very w ide dynamic range and the ability to detect current reversal. The current sensor has the ability to auto-range, and can measure charge/discharge currents ranging f rom 1Amp to 200Amp, w ith an accuracy of +/-1% on full range. Auto ranging is necessary, due to the nominal float current on the battery banks that could be as low as 1 Amp, w hile the initial charge or discharge currents could be very high. The sensor is connected to a dedicated 4-20mA analogue input on the SAM2 RMS03 controller unit. Installation Steps: Sensor cable pinouts

Connect the current sensor around the battery bank load conductor (connection between rectifier to battery bank). Ensure to clamp all conductors so the entire battery bank capacity is monitored. Only the positive or negative conductor must be clamped, not both. If the negative conductor is clamped, the BCP arrow must face in the direction aw ay from the batteries tow ards the load.

Make use of the universal alarm cable (2-pair, part of w iring cable kit) to connect the BCP sensor to the SAM2 RMS03 cable termination unit +P (blue), GD (blue/w hite) and N (orange) connection of BCP screw terminal connector. +P refers to positive DC supply voltage, GD to ground connection and N to negative DC supply voltage. Cut the universal alarm cable to the required length and w ire the BCP sensor screw terminal connections according to the follow ing color scheme: Blue lead of blue/w hite pair positive. White lead of blue/w hite pair ground. Orange lead of orange/white pair negative. Fault finding: Ensure to measure approximately 15Vdc between positive and negative pair. With sensor connected to no load (0A), ensure to measure approximately 0.603V betw een ground and negative. With sensor connected to SAM2 RMS03 controller, but not pow ered, ensure to measure approximately 53ohms betw een ground and negative.

If the positive conductor is clamped, the BCP arrow must face in the direction tow ards the batteries away from the load. (the norm is alw ays to clamp the current carrying conductor, thus not the station earth potential)

Battery Bank Voltage Measurement The battery bank supply voltage monitoring capability is an integral part of the SAM2 RMS03 controller unit. The battery voltage feeding the controller is constantly being monitored, w ith the ability of monitoring voltages up to 60Vdc, thus catering for both +24Vdc and -48Vdc sites. This analogue input is part of the SAM2 RMS03 controller and has the ability to auto-range according to the supply voltage (18-60Vdc) 22

SAM2V3 Product Manual V2.1.4

Wire the DC supply voltage to pow er the SAM2 RMS03 controller directly from the battery bank PRIORITY load output supply via a suitable 10A MCB. Make sure not to use the output from a DC to DC converter, as the monitored voltage is used to determine the battery bank DoD (depth of discharge) during a hybrid (battery discharge) cycle. Indoor type Unit:

The HEM V00 module has tw o possible applications: Monitoring of tw o independent battery banks at the same BTS site. In some cases different battery banks are used to pow er the RBS radio equipment (+24Vdc) versus the transmission equipment (-48Vdc). Both battery banks requires to be monitored in order to measure the battery DoD and SoC levels during hybrid cycling. In a shared site application it might be required to monitor the DC load consumed by the shared operator.

Outdoor type Unit:

In either of the above scenarios the HEM V00 module is used by connecting it to the SAM2 RMS03 controller through a serial RS485 port. Up to three HEM modules could be connected to the SAM2 RMS03 controller via a common serial RS485 connection w ith the following added monitoring capabilities on a per module basis: 1x 4-20mA input BCP sensor 1x 0-60Vdc input Battery bank monitor 1x Analogue NTC input Battery temperature sensor 4x Digital inputs (spare potential free alarm contacts

Note: Ensure that the current sensor alarm is not active once the BCP sensor is connected to ensure proper operation. Verify that the BCP indicates a charge current reading during a battery charge cycle and a discharge reading during a discharge cycle. If the readings are inverted, the direction of the BCP sensor (arrow) needs to be inverted. Verify that the battery bank supply voltage is monitored directly from the battery bank. During a discharge cycle the battery voltage must fall by 1-3Vdc within the first minute before stabilizing. If the voltage remains constant during a discharge cycle, the SAM2 RMS03 controller is pow ered from a DC to DC converter supply.

16. SAM2 RMS03 Hybrid Extension Module (V00)


The standard SAM2 RMS03 controller caters for a single 060Vdc analogue voltage input and a single 4-20mA analogue input used for the BCP sensor. These inputs are used during battery cycling to monitor both battery bank voltage (DoD) as w ell as charge/discharge currents (SoC) of a single battery bank. In some netw ork deployment scenarios it might be necessary to monitor more than one battery bank (part of multiple tenant applications for example), thus the need for the Hybrid Extension Module (HEM V00).

(refer to section 13) If the positive conductor is clamped, the BCP arrow must face in the direction tow ards the batteries away from the load. (the norm is alw ays to clamp the current carrying conductor, thus not the station earth potential refer to section 15) Connect HEM V00 BCP sensor cable RJ9 connector to the dedicated socket on the HEM V00 module labeled BCP2. Ensure that the cable w ith the side marked BCP2 Sensor is w ired to the BCP sensor screw terminal connections according to the follow ing color scheme: Blue lead of blue/w hite pair positive. White lead of blue/w hite pair ground. Orange lead of orange/white pair negative. Fault finding: Ensure to measure approximately 15Vdc between positive and negative pair. With sensor connected to no load (0A), ensure to measure approximately 0.603V betw een ground and negative. With sensor connected to SAM2 RMS03 controller, but not pow ered, ensure to measure approximately 53ohms betw een ground and negative.

If required, connect any potential free alarm contacts to be monitored to input 1-4 on the HEM module. (ensure to use the correct polarity as indicated)

Connect the HEM V00 module to the SAM2 RMS03 cable termination unit +P (blue), GD (blue/w hite) and N (orange) connection of HEM screw terminal connector. +P refers to positive DC supply voltage, GD to ground connection and N to negative DC supply voltage.

Note: Before pow ering the HEM V00 module ensure that all w iring connections have been completed (serial connection to SAM2 RMS03 controller, BCP sensor, Battery bank supply voltage, optional Battery Temp sensor and optional potential free alarm inputs) Once pow ered, the HEM V00 pow er/communications LED should flash slow ly at 3 second intervals, indicating correct powering sequence. Once the HEM V00 module address has been set successfully using the SAM2 RMS03 ECT terminal software program, the pow er/communications LED w ill flash faster at 1 second intervals, indicating active communications w ith the SAM2 RMS03 controller. Once communications are established w ith the SAM2 RMS03 controller, use the ECT terminal software to verify that the BCP indicates a charge current reading during a battery charge cycle and a discharge reading during a discharge cycle, battery temperature sensor indicates a valid temperature reading, battery bank supply voltage is monitored directly from the battery bank and potential free alarm input status. Fault finding: A temperature reading of 12 degrees or more refers to a disconnected temperature probe lead and temperature reading of +110 degrees or more, refers to a short circuit probe lead. Should no charge or discharge current values be displayed, refer to BCP sensor cable connections and w ired polarities (follow test procedures described above) Confirm change in battery voltage during battery charge and discharge cycle. If no change visible, HEM V00 module possibly pow ered through a DC/DC converter. If no communications established w ith SAM2 RMS03 controller confirm the follow ing: o Serial connection cable w ired polarities o Configured address

Optionally, connect the HEM V00 Battery Temperature Sensor cable RJ9 connector to the dedicated socket on the HEM module labeled Temp. The battery temperature sensor is normally placed betw een the battery cells, center of total battery block.

Battery Bank Voltage Measurement The additional battery bank supply voltage monitoring is an integral part of the HEM V00 module. The battery voltage feeding the HEM V00 module is constantly being monitored, w ith the ability of monitoring voltages up to 60Vdc, thus catering for both +24Vdc and -48Vdc battery banks totally isolated from the main battery bank monitored by the SAM2 RMS03 controller.

The SAM2 RMS03 system has tw o types of navigation light monitors, one for AC type navigation lights and one for DC type navigation lights. The installation procedure for both are the same. (ensure how ever that the correct type is used for the applicable site application) The DC type AWM sensor is located in the DC distribution box and w ired in series w ith the DC supply (output of NAV light MCB) of the navigation tow er lights and calibrated according to the amount of current draw n by the lamps. Any deviation in the current drawn will cause an active alarm. Due to the AWM sensor being calibrated on a per site basis, virtually any amount of lamps could effectively be monitored by the unit. AWM DC-type Unit Electrical Specifications:

Connect the AWM sensor as indicated in the diagram above. Sw itch on the AWM MCB and ensure all tow er lamps are functional. Using a small screw driver, adjust the sensitivity screw on the AWM sensor fully clockwise, thus maximum sensitivity. Both AWM LEDs must be on (Lights On and Calibrate). Turn the sensitivity screw slowly in an anticlockw ise direction, thus decreasing sensitivity, until the red Calibrate LED goes off. Only the green Lights On LED must now be on. For the best performance, the sensitivity setting should be as close as possible to the point w here the red Calibrate LED is constantly on. It is normal for the Calibrate LED to flash every now and then. If the Calibrate LED is constantly on, it means the sensitivity has been set to high (out of calibration) or the mains supply voltage is momentarily too high/low , resulting in in/decreased current flow. Verify correct operation by turning off the power to the tow er lamps. Both LEDs must now be off and the SAM2 RMS03 unit should indicate an alarm condition. (note that the navigation lights alarm is masked in daylight hours and must be view ed in the unmasked state using the SAM2 RMS03 LCD display or technician craft terminal software application) Turn on the pow er to the tow er lamps and verify that the AWM green LED Lights On is burning. The SAM2 RMS03 should indicate no alarm condition. To achieve maximum range w ith the sensitivity screw, ensure to w ire the input corresponding to the total current drawn by the lamps.

Installation Steps:

Sensor cable pinouts:

Note: Ensure that all the lamps are sw itched on and functional before calibrating the AWM sensor. Ensure to re-calibrate the AWM sensor upon lamp replacements. AWM alarm indication is masked during daytime operation to compensate for daylight sensors. (from 4am to 8pm). During installation testing phase, refer to the SAM2 RMS03 craft terminal software application (SAM2 RMS03 ECT) or LCD display to verify true unmasked alarm status Diagnostics View Inputs SAM2V3 Product Manual V2.1.4

Wire the output OUT of the AWM DC to the supply cable feeding the tow er lamps (DC supply). In order to calibrate the DC type AWM sensor, the follow ing procedure has to be follow ed: (note repeat this procedure upon any lamp change)

20. SAM2 RMS03 Utility Grid Management


The SAM2 RMS03 controller through the cable termination unit and generator controller makes use of an optional 3-phase utility grid check meter for the purpose of monitoring the utility grid supply in terms of voltage, current and Kw H consumption. (on a per phase basis) The SAM2 RMS03 communicates w ith the utility grid meter, using a serial RS485 connection. The utility grid meter is deployed as a check meter w ith the follow ing features: Statistical Kw H counters based upon actual load consumption and/or total load consumption over a 24 hour period. Statistical voltage per phase indication. Statistical load current per phase indication. Optional, manual or automated load disconnect function. (in conjunction w ith meter control relay U1) The SAM2 RMS03 controller has the ability to disconnect the utility AC load and run the generator or battery backup, should the grid pow er prove to be unstable. The grid pow er is constantly monitored in terms of the configured mains fail stability criteria period (one minute default). If the mains voltage drops below the configured voltage threshold, on any of the phases, the utility grid load w ill be disconnected and the generator started or battery discharge cycle started, in order to carry the load. Should the mains voltage regain stability based upon the configured voltage and stability duration (five minutes default), on all three phases, the utility grid load supply w ill be reconnected and the generator stopped or the battery discharge cycle ended. Utility grid Hybrid Control. In certain cases it w ould be beneficial to cycle the site batteries in conjunction w ith the utility grid supply. The SAM2 RMS03 controller could be configured to disconnect the utility grid supply, once the required battery SOC (state of charge) is reached. The utility grid supply w ould be reconnected once the battery reaches the configured DoD (depth of discharge) level. (generator control forms part of the above control logic to ensure the generator is started should utility grid failure occur) Installation Steps:

Connect the AWM DC sensor as indicated in the diagram above. Sw itch on the AWM MCB and ensure all tow er lamps are functional. Using a small screw driver, adjust the sensitivity screw on the AWM DC sensor fully clockwise, thus maximum sensitivity. Both AWM LEDs must be on (Lights On and Calibrate). Turn the sensitivity screw slowly in an anticlockw ise direction, thus decreasing sensitivity, until the red Calibrate LED goes off. Only the green Lights On LED must now be on. For the best performance, the sensitivity setting should be as close as possible to the point w here the red Calibrate LED is constantly on. It is normal for the Calibrate LED to flash every now and then. If the Calibrate LED is constantly on, it means the sensitivity has been set to high (out of calibration) or the DC supply voltage is momentarily too high/low , resulting in in/decreased current flow. Verify correct operation by turning off the power to the tow er lamps. Both LEDs must now be off and the SAM2 RMS03 unit should indicate an alarm condition. (note that the navigation lights alarm is masked in daylight hours and must be view ed in the unmasked state using the SAM2 RMS03 LCD display or technician craft terminal software application) Turn on the pow er to the tow er lamps and verify that the AWM DC green LED Lights On is burning. The SAM2 RMS03 should indicate no alarm condition.

Note: Ensure that all the lamps are sw itched on and functional before calibrating the AWM DC sensor. Ensure to re-calibrate the AWM DC sensor upon lamp replacements. AWM DC alarm indication is masked during daytime operation to compensate for daylight sensors. (from 4am to 8pm). During installation testing phase, refer to the SAM2 RMS03 craft terminal software application (SAM2 RMS03 ECT) or LCD display to verify true unmasked alarm status Diagnostics View Inputs

Ensure the meter Kw H indicator is pulsing (1-2 second intervals) indicating presence of utility mains pow er. Use the SAM2 RMS03 LCD display or technician terminal software program to verify operation of the meter. (meter communications alarm should be clear and voltage/current per phase reading visible)

21. SAM2 RMS03 Equipment Mains Monitoring Unit


The utility grid meter is used to monitor and verify the utility AC mains grid and/or generator supply to site. In some netw ork deployment scenarios it might be necessary to monitor the distributed AC load current to multiple tenant sites (AC load consumed by shared operator), thus the need for the Equipment Mains Monitoring Unit (EMU).

Connect the utility meter phases as follow s: Phase 1 (Red) In Terminal L1 IN Phase 1 (Red) Out Terminal L1 OUT Phase 2 (Blue) In Terminal L2 IN Phase 2 (Blue) Out Terminal L2 OUT Phase 3 (Yellow ) In Terminal L3 IN Phase 3 (Yellow ) Out Terminal L3 OUT Neutral (Black) In Terminal N IN Neutral (Black) Out Terminal N OUT The utility meter is normally connected to the mains 3phase input supply directly from the utility grid supplier. Optionally, in some cases the utility meter is connected to the 3-phase load supply from the ATS. In this case the utility meter is capable of measuring both the utility grid and generator 3-phase supply. (data is stored in tw o separate registers for utility versus generator AC mains statistics) The utility meter is not w eather proof and needs to be placed in the optional outdoor enclosure should inadequate space be available indoors during installations.

The EMU module is used by connecting it to the SAM2 RMS03 controller through a serial RS485 port. Up to three EMU modules could be connected to the SAM2 RMS03 controller via a common serial RS485 connection w ith the follow ing added monitoring capabilities on a per module basis: 6x voltage inputs Current Transformer (CTs) (up to tw o 3-phase tenants or up to six single phase tenants). 1x 3-phase AC Mains supply input Tenant distributed mains supply voltage. 1x Alarm output AC Mains low voltage alarm. Installation Steps: Connect the tenant current transformers around the particular AC load supply to be monitored (either Single Phase load supply or 3-Phase Load supply). The AC load supply to the applicable tenant w ill need to be disconnected in order to fit the relevant current sensors. Ensure to clamp all conductors so the entire load supply to the particular tenant is being monitored. (the current transformers are not directional, thus could be fitted in any direction) The current transformers are normally located w ithin the AC distribution box, after the MCB feeding the particular tenant. The current transformers are factory terminated on a 650mm w iring harness (CT1-3, cable harness 1 and CT46, cable harness 2). Make sure to connect the correct cable harness to the appropriate EMU monitoring input. The tenants AC Mains 3-Phase supply voltage monitoring is an integral part of the EMU module. The AC mains supply voltage feeding the EMU module is constantly being monitored, w ith the ability of monitoring voltages up to 260Vac 29

Note: Ensure all utility grid phases are connected as illustrated above. Ensure to measure the desired 230Vac per phase on terminals (L1, L2, L3 IN, w ith reference to N IN) If meter connection is through to the load, ensure to measure the same voltage on terminals (L1, L2, L3 OUT, w ith reference to N - OUT) SAM2V3 Product Manual V2.1.4

A low voltage alarm output (default 187vac) could optionally be w ired to any of the SAM2 RMS03 controller spare inputs. The alarm threshold is configurable using the SAM2 RMS03 craft terminal software application (SAM2 RMS03 ECT) and is activated if any one of the monitored phases drops below this setpoint.

Once pow ered, the EMU pow er/communications LED should flash each time interrogated by the SAM2 RMS03 controller, indicating communications. Once communications are established w ith the SAM2 RMS03 controller, use the ECT terminal software to verify that the CTs indicates a load current reading (on a per tenant basis) and AC mains supply w ithin range. Fault finding: Should no load current values be displayed, refer to CT sensor cable harness connections. Confirm AC mains voltage on all phases. If no communications established w ith SAM2 RMS03 controller confirm serial connection cable w ired polarities

22. SAM2 RMS03 Generator Controller


One of the primary functions of the SAM2 RMS03 controller is to perform generator remote start/stop control part of hybrid battery cycling. The SAM2 RMS03 controller does not replace the existing site AMF/ATS unit, but w orks in conjunction w ith these units to perform the follow ing basic functions: Generator Control: Automatic start/stop dependent upon the state of the utility grid ac mains supply. Automatic start/stop part of hybrid battery charge/discharge cycling. Remote start/stop part of system test. Remote Reset upon activated fault condition. Alarm Monitoring: Utility Grid AC Mains Fail. Generator Running (DG started successfully). Generator Fault (DG generic fault indication). Generator Start Fail (DG failed to start successfully) Generator Manual Override (DG remains running after a DG stop control signal). Generator on Load (DG load contactor activated). Generator Oil Pressure (DG LLOP fault indication). Generator Temperature (DG HT fault indication). Generator Low fuel (optional DG low level fuel sw itch) Generator Door (optional DG canopy intrusion) Generator Emergency Stop (optional DG emergency stop button) The SAM2 generator controller (DGC) module operates in conjunction w ith the SAM2 RMS03 controller to perform the above mentioned functions.

Connect the EMU module to the SAM2 RMS03 cable termination unit +P (orange), GD (blue/w hite) and N (orange/white) connection of HEM MOD screw terminal connector. +P refers to positive RS485 communications, GD to supply ground connection and N to negative RS485 communications.

Note: Before pow ering the EMU module ensure that all w iring connections have been completed (serial connection to SAM2 RMS03 controller, CT sensors, mains supply voltage) SAM2V3 Product Manual V2.1.4

Note: The generator 12V battery connection could be tapped from the AMF panel dc supply input, as it is normally pow ered directly from the generator standby battery. (before connecting, ensure that the above input is in fact the generator 12V battery and not a standby battery) E+F - Generator Start/Stop and Reset Control: Installation Steps:

Note: The blue and blue/w hite pair is used for RS485 serial communications betw een the SAM2 RMS03 controller and DGC controller. The orange and orange/w hite pair is used for the auxiliary 12Vdc supply to pow er the DGC controller from the SAM2 RMS03 controller. The green and green/w hite pair carries the same auxiliary 12Vdc supply as the orange pair and w ould thus be bundled together to ensure a proper stable 12V supply. The brow n and brown/white pair carries the same auxiliary 12Vdc supply as the orange pair and w ould thus be bundled together to ensure a proper stable 12V supply. B Fuel Sensor Auxiliary Power and RS485 Comms: Refer to section 24 of this manual SAM2 RMS03 Fuel Management. C Generator Monitored Alarm Inputs: Refer to section 23 of this manual SAM2 RMS03 Generator Alarm Monitoring.

Under normal conditions the SAM2 RSM03 controller issues a remote start command once a utility grid AC mains supply failure is detected. How ever at this point tw o conditions are verified, that could influence this sequence: Batteries fully charged according to the configured SoC, the DG w ill not be started and a hybrid battery discharge cycle activated. If the DG did not run in the last user configurable period (default 24 hours), the DG w ill be started under test by the SAM2 RMS03 controller for a user configurable timeframe (default 5 minutes). Should the battery be charged to the required SoC, the DG w ill be stopped and the battery discharge cycle activated. If not, the DG w ill remain running until battery SoC reached or utility grid mains supply returns. Each DG start sequence is controlled through a single relay w ith dual sw itchover contacts by the SAM2 RMS03 controller in conjunction w ith the generator controller.

(before connecting the remote start controlling pair, ensure to determine w hether a NO or NC contact is required and w ire accordingly)

Note: The NO contact of the SAM2 RMS03 controller is closed upon a DG reset command, resulting in energizing the dual sw itchover relay located on the generator controller unit: Wire the required contact NC (short circuit) or NO (open circuit) relay contact to the applicable ATS/AMF, remote reset input. The above contacts are potential free and could be referenced to ground or +12V, based upon the requirements from the ATS/AMF. During a DG start command from the SAM2 RMS03 controller ensure the ATS/AMF sends a start pulse to the DG by cranking the engine. During a DG reset command from the SAM2 RMS03 controller ensure the ATS/AMF fault condition is cleared. Should the fault condition return, DG maintenance or repairs w ould be necessary.

Note: The NC contact (inverted logic) of the SAM2 RMS03 controller is closed (failsafe) upon a DG start command, resulting in deenergizing the dual sw itchover relay located on the generator controller unit: Wire the required contact NC (short circuit) or NO (open circuit) relay contact to the applicable ATS/AMF, remote start input. The above contacts are potential free and could be referenced to ground or +12V, based upon the requirements from the ATS/AMF. The DG reset sequence for both generators are controlled through a single relay w ith dual sw itchover contacts by the SAM2 RMS03 controller in conjunction w ith the generator controller.

Generator remote start/reset control sequence The SAM2 RMS03 controller has a specific sequence in w hich a single or dual generator is remotely started, w hich is hardcoded in the firmw are with limited user configurable settings. When the DG needs to be started, due to a utility mains grid failure alarm (A) or due to a low battery threshold (DoD reached), the remote start N/C relay is deenergized. The duration of the remote start contact is user configurable between 0-255 seconds (default 30 seconds). The DG start pulse is delayed by a user configurable DG start delay period (B) betw een 0-255 seconds (default 60 seconds). When the DG needs to be stopped, due to utility grid mains being restored (A) or due to hybrid battery discharge activation, the remote start N/C relay is 32

SAM2V3 Product Manual V2.1.4

energized. The sw itchover of the DG start contact is delayed by a user configurable DG stop delay period (C) betw een 0-255 seconds (default 60 seconds). Should the DG not be started upon the first start attempt the SAM2 RMS03 w ill issue another remote start command. The remote start attempts are fixed to four (hardcoded in the firmw are), at w hich a DG fail to start (D+E) alarm is activated. The pause/reset intervals between the remote start pulses are fixed to 30 seconds and hardcoded in the firmw are. Once a DG fail to start alarm is activated for a particular DG the SAM2 RMS03 controller w ill no longer try and start the DG unless one of the follow ing conditions are met: Whenever any of the hybrid suspend conditions changes state. Alarms conditions such as shelter temperature for example. Whenever hybrid battery discharge is deactivated. Both DG are off due to the presence of grid utility mains supply DG remote start command DG remote reset command DG sw ap (either manual or auto) Decreasing BTS battery voltage (every 1volt drop in threshold) Note: Once the DG fail to start alarm is cleared, the above sequence is repeated. A control command executed from the management platform or technicians craft terminal (F), in terms of: DG remote start command (G) DG remote stop command (G) DG remote reset command (G) DG remote sw ap command (G), w ould cause the generator to respond immediately, thus zero delay (H), besides the netw ork SMS/GPRS/Edge message delays.

24. SAM2 RMS03 Fuel Management


The SAM2 RMS03 controller through the generator controller makes provision to monitor dual fuel tanks of virtually any shape, size and capacity. The SAM2 RMS03 fuel management option consists of the follow ing items: Fuel Sensor Fuel Tank Lid Sensor Water in Diesel Sensor The SAM2 RMS03 controller has the ability to measure the actual amount of diesel stored in the fuel tank and to detect w hen the fuel tank lid is open. The w ater detection sensor is used to indicate that w ater is present in the diesel tank. Fuel Sensor The fuel management option consists of an analogue pressure sensor (submersible or externally mount) that is accurately calibrated according to the tank dimension using the SAM2 RMS03 diagnostics and configuration software. The measured pressure is converted to a fuel level expressed in litres or gallons. Alternatively an ultrasonic sensor could be used if more suitable to the installation environment. The measured time for a high frequency sound wave echo to reflect from the measured fuel level is converted to a fuel level expressed in litres or gallons. Communication betw een the SAM2_RMS03 controller and the fuel sensor is through a serial RS485 port. The fuel sensor is pow ered by one of the SAM2 RMS03 controller auxiliary 12Vdc supplies.

Installation Steps: Should the distance betw een the fuel tank and the AMF/ATS (w here the DGC is located) be too far, make use of the Fuel Tank sensor cable (4-pair, part of w iring cable kit), in order to extend the cabling, to connect the fuel probe to the DGC. The cable termination box is used to securely join all cable connections betw een the fuel sensor and fuel tank sensor cabling. The cable termination box is rated IP65 and can be used outdoors.

12V terminal (Positive supply) to Black of fuel sensor. GD terminal (Negative supply) to White of fuel sensor. (pairs are polarity sensitive, thus do not invert).

When using a submersible pressure sensor, f it the fuel sensor ensuring that it is lying at the bottom of the tank. The SAM2 RMS03 controller through the DGC uses a single cable-pair to communicate w ith the fuel sensor via RS485 and a separate pair for the 12Vdc supply to power the probe. The fuel sensor cable has a clear plastic Breather pipe at the center of its core, this pipe must not be bent or sealed as unobstructed airflow via this pipe is necessary for correct operation of the sensor. The fuel sensor cable has a screen and a red lead; both are not used and may be cut.

Note: During installation each fuel sensor needs to be calibrated according to tank capacity and volumetric pressure to ensure maximum accuracy. Tank calibration is done using the SAM2 RMS03 serial diagnostics and configuration software Fuel Probe Wizard application. Before starting the fuel sensor calibration process, ensure the follow ing: The fuel sensor is communicating w ith the SAM2 RMS03 controller. Should the fuel sensor not communicate w ith the SAM2 RMS03 controller a Fuel Probe1 Fail alarm w ould be active. (verify wiring connections to clear alarm) Make sure the DG is not running to ensure minimum fuel level vibration during the calibration process. Ensure the tank is clean and free of sludge (bottom residue) and equipped w ith suitable breather pipe in terms of pressure buildup part of daily temperature changes. Fuel Tank Lid Sensor The optional fuel tank lid kit is a custom made tank lid sw itch and sensor, universal to most types of tanks available. The sensor kit consists of an active switch and magnetic sensor. The sw itch is mounted w ithin the tank inlet and the magnetic sensor in the tank lid. Once the lid is opened an alarm is activated and upon closure of the tank the alarm is deactivated. This concept is used to determine w hen the fuel tank is either being filled or possibly fuel being siphoning. The SAM2 RMS03 controller takes a fuel reading upon alarm status change, thus fuel added or removed. These fuel readings are used part of the customized fuel management reports. Installation Steps: Should the distance betw een the fuel tank lid kit and the AMF/ATS (w here the DGC is located) be too far, make use of the Fuel Tank sensor cable (4-pair, part of w iring cable kit), in order to extend the cabling, to connect the fuel tank lid kit to the DGC. The cable termination box is used to securely join all cable connections betw een the fuel tank lid kit and fuel tank sensor cabling. The cable termination box is rated IP65 and can be used outdoors.

Connect the fuel sensor to the DGC as follow s: P+ terminal (RS485 Positive) to Blue of fuel sensor. N- terminal (RS495 Negative) to Yellow of fuel sensor.

Connect the fuel tank lid sensor to the DGC as follow s: DG Alarm Inputs screw connection, input terminal 8 to Blue of fuel tank lid sensor. (note, any spare alarm input could be used) 12V terminal (Positive supply) to Brow n of fuel tank lid sensor. GD terminal (Negative supply) to Black of fuel tank lid sensor. (note, the negative supply also acts as the alarm input ground) (pairs are polarity sensitive, thus do not invert).

Connect the w ater in diesel sensor to the DGC as follows: DG Alarm Inputs screw connection, input terminal 7 to Blue of w ater in diesel sensor. (note, any spare alarm input could be used) 12V terminal (Positive supply) to Brow n of water in diesel sensor. GD terminal (Negative supply) to Black of w ater in diesel sensor. (note, the negative supply also acts as the alarm input ground) (pairs are polarity sensitive, thus do not invert). Fit the w ater detection sensor ensuring that it is lying at the bottom of the tank.

Physically mount the active sw itch (A) to the inlet of the fuel tank. Ensure the beveled edge of the active pickup faces upwards, with the cable facing dow nwards. The rotation of the mounting bracket (B) w ould be determined by the type of thank. Mount the magnetic sensor (C) in the center of the tank lid.

Note: By placing the w ater detection sensor at the bottom of the fuel tank, an alarm is generated once the probe tip is submerged w ith w ater (+/-10-13mm required). The probe needs to be raised if a higher alarm detection level is required. The w ater in diesel sensor alarm state could be tested using SAM2 RMS03 serial diagnostic and configuration software or LCD display.

Note: During installation ensure that the mounting bracket, active sw itch and magnetic sensor are securely and neatly attached to the f uel tank. Align the active sw itch and magnetic sensor to ensure the alarm clears w hen tank lid is closed and alarm activates w hen tank lid is opened. The tank lid alarm state could be tested using SAM2 RMS03 serial diagnostic and configuration software or LCD display. Water in Diesel Sensor The optional w ater in diesel sensor (submersible or externally mount) is used to detect w ater contamination of the diesel fuel. The sensor is a custom-made liquid level, solid-state device designed to detect the presence or absence of an electrically conductive liquid. Each sensor contains integral, hightemperature-rated electronics that generate an alternating voltage to the stainless steel tip. The presence of an electrically conductive liquid completes the circuit w hich, in turn, changes the condition of the transistor output (alarm state). Installation Steps: Should the distance betw een the w ater in diesel sensor and the AMF/ATS (w here the DGC is located) be too far, make use of the Fuel Tank sensor cable (4-pair, part of w iring cable kit), in order to extend the cabling, to connect the w ater in diesel sensor to the DGC. The cable termination box is used to securely join all cable connections betw een the water in diesel sensor and fuel tank sensor cabling. The cable termination box is rated IP65 and can be used outdoors.

25. SAM2 RMS03 Hybrid Battery Management


One of the primary functions of the SAM2 RMS03 is Hybrid battery charge/discharge monitoring and control. The main purpose of hybrid control is to gain maximum operational cost reduction by reducing generator operation and utilizing the backup energy sources, such as batteries, solar and w ind turbines in an intelligent and controlled manner. Hybrid battery management is mostly used in the follow ing manner: Cycling of the BTS load supply betw een utility grid AC mains, generator AC mains and backup battery bank. Indoor shelter type sites have the added component, temperature, to be monitored and managed.

The Hybrid Battery Management control logic can be configured in the follow ing manner, using the SAM2 RMS03 serial diagnostics and configuration software: A Hybrid control could be configured to include any monitored alarm condition or threshold as follow s:

SAM2V3 Product Manual V2.1.4

Shelter temperature. Indoor shelter type sites run the risk of high temperature conditions during a hybrid battery discharge cycle, due to air conditioners not running and not equipped w ith effective DC free cooling ventilation systems. A shelter temperature could be configured (default 35C) at w hich the SAM2 RMS03 controller w ould suspend the hybrid cycle and start the generator to run the air conditioner unit. Humidity. Typically for indoor shelter type sites, w hereby the generator would be started once predefined humidity setpoint is exceeded. Rectifier Override Control. The SAM2 RMS03 controller has the ability to except an external alarm/control signal to eff ectively control the hybrid charge/discharge cycle. Override control is normally supported by hybrid rectifiers with the ability to control battery charge/discharge cycles. B Hybrid control could be configured to use various timers as follow s: Start and End Period. Due to excessive daytime heat, indoor shelter type sites could be configured to activate a hybrid discharge cycle at certain times of the day only (nighttime w hen cooler). Tw o independent daily time schedules could be configured. Continuous. Hybrid cycle configured for continuous operation, thus not time related. SAM2 RMS03 w ill activate battery charge/discharge based upon monitored SoC (state of charge) or DoD (depth of discharge). Alarm Inhibit. An alarm configured part of the inhibit criteria w ill prevent a hybrid battery discharge cycle if active. The alarm needs to be present for a period of 5min (default) before it has an effect on hybrid battery discharge activation. Only once the alarm has cleared for a period of 60min (default) w ould a hybrid battery discharge cycle be activated. Any state change of the alarm in this group, during a hybrid battery discharge cycle would have no effect to discharge operation. Alarm Suspend. An alarm configured part of the suspend criteria w ill either prevent a hybrid battery discharge cycle from activating, or temporarily suspend the hybrid cycle once activated. The alarm has a programmable activation delay and requires to be cleared for a period of 3min (default) before the hybrid battery discharge cycle would be activated. Any state change of the alarm during the hybrid battery discharge cycle would suspend hybrid discharge and start the generator. Alarm Mask. Various alarms could be configured to be masked during a hybrid battery discharge cycle. Alarms such as AC Mains and AC phase fail are masked. Reason being, these alarms are automatically activated during a battery discharge cycle, but not relevant due to a controlled/scheduled event. Boost Charge Cycle. Depending upon the battery type being used for hybrid cycling, it may be necessary to periodically equalize or overcharge the battery to ensure it meets w ith the manufacturers specification and lifecycle. OPzV batteries falls into this criteria and should be configured to be charged to 100% every x10 discharge cycles as a norm. C Battery Monitoring. Default hybrid control utilizes the follow ing battery criteria: Battery Bank Voltage. The battery bank DoD (depth of discharge) is used to determine w hen the hybrid discharge cycle is ended, thereby starting the generator. The configured DoD is indicated as a percentage to w hich the battery bank should be discharge. (do not exceed 80% DoD in order to prevent permanent battery damage) Charge/Discharge Current. The battery current is continuously monitored during a battery discharge and charge cycle. Effectively the calculated Ah

removed during a battery discharge is replaced during the battery charge cycle. The battery SoC (state of charge) is configured to replace the Ah removed during discharge plus the percentage offset (overcharge), in order to compensate for equipment inefficiencies. D Utility Control. Utility grid AC mains pow er takes precedence over a hybrid battery discharge cycle. Once utility grid AC mains fails: The generator is either started in test mode for 5 minutes (default) if it has not run in the last user configurable timeframe. Hybrid battery discharge cycle activated, should all configured criteria be met (alarms, battery SoC) and if the generator has run in the last user configurable timeframe. Automated utility grid AC mains disconnect and reconnect based upon configured upper and low er voltage limits. E Generator Control. Remote start, stop and reset control of the generator. Automated control of the generator w orks in conjunction with the monitored criteria as listed above. F REC Control. Indoor shelter type sites DC ventilation system control (reduced energy cooling). G Aircon Control. Indoor shelter type sites air conditioner control in terms of the follow ing: Aircon start/stop based upon shelter temperature. Aircon single or dual operation based upon shelter temperature. Aircon cycling based upon operational hours. Aircon REC sw itchover based upon hybrid battery discharge cycle and/or shelter temperature.

Hybrid Fail Reasons The SAM2 RMS03 controller has various reason codes as to w hy a hybrid battery discharge cycle does not activate. These reason codes could be verified using the SAM2 RMS03 serial diagnostics and configuration software. The follow ing table refers to the meaning of each Hybrid Fail Reason Code:

26. SAM2 RMS03 Rectifier (SMPS) Alarm Monitoring


The SAM2 RMS03 controller through the cable termination unit makes provision to monitor three alarm indications from the installed rectifier (SMPS). These inputs are dedicated to the SMPS, how ever should additional inputs be required, any spare alarm inputs could be used for this purpose and configured accordingly. In general these dry contact digital alarm inputs are defined as follow s: (configurable using the SAM2 RMS03 serial diagnostic and configuration software) R1 Rectifier 1 Fail (Module Fail - minor) R2 Rectifier 2 Fail (System Fail - major) HO Hybrid Override (optional SMPS hybrid control)

SAM2V3 Product Manual V2.1.4

Installation Steps:

Make use of the general purpose alarm cable (2-pair, part of w iring cable kit) and connect to the REC Alarms screw terminal connection on the SAM2 RMS03 cable termination unit. Connect R1 (blue), R2 (orange), HO (optional, spare) and DG (both blue/w hite and orange/w hite) R1 refers to Rectifier non-urgent and R2 Rectifier urgent alarms. Connect the other end of the cable to the relevant SMPS non-urgent and urgent alarm relay output contacts. The HO input refers to the Hybrid Override control, normally obtained from a SMPS w ith hybrid cycling capabilities. This input is optionally used in conjunction w ith a hybrid pow er system. This means the hybrid battery charge/discharge cycle is determined by the hybrid SMPS and used by the SAM2 RMS03 controller for hybrid reporting purposes.

When using multiple intrusion sensors as used on the generator canopy doors, ensure to use a single pair of universal alarm cable to interconnect all the sensors in parallel. Connect the open-ended side of the cable to the generator controller DG Alarm Inputs screw terminal, input 8 (brow n) and GD (brow n/white). Ensure that DG1 Door alarm is configured as N/O input on the SAM2 RMS03 controller.

Note: Ensure to test the intrusion alarms by closing/opening the shelter door, all the generator doors and view ing the status of the each alarm. Open each door individually to confirm alarm activation (should the alarm not clear/activate accordingly, investigate wiring). Movement Sensor An indoor shelter type movement PIR (passive infra-red) or an outdoor perimeter type movement PIR is available, both uses quad zone logic and provides multi segmented detection zones throughout the detection area. An alarm signal is created by the cumulative total IR energy of each zone. It is designed to provide 4-8 zones for a human sized object, in order to provide sharp and maximum signals for stable detection. Spot temperature changes, i.e. by rodents etc., may affect only one or tw o zones at the same time creating a smaller detection signal, thus filtering out false alarm detection. The SAM2 RMS03 is configured (default) to keep a triggered movement alarm active for a period of three minutes. This action prevents multiple alarm events for the same condition as movement occurs within the detection area. The triggered movement alarm w ould only be cleared if no movement has been detected for a period of three minutes w ithin the monitored detection area. The SAM2 RMS03 provides the auxiliary 12Vdc supply to pow er the movement sensor.

Installation Steps: Make use of the universal alarm cable (2-pair, part of w iring cable kit) to connect the movement sensor to the SAM2 RMS03 cable termination unit 12V (blue), GD (blue/w hite) and MA (orange) connection of the Move screw terminal connector. 12V refers to positive supply, GD to the negative supply and MA to the movement alarm input. Ensure to w ire the movement sensor according to the same colors as indicated above. (Use a multi-meter to verify polarity and DC supply output)

Upon an active smoke alarm condition both air conditioner units and DC ventilation system is shut dow n as a failsafe m easure against possible fire venting.

Panic Sensor A w ater resistant push type button is used for the purpose of emergency panic situations. An alarm w ill be generated once the button is pushed, in order to alert the NMC of a possible emergency situation. The alarm w ill auto latch for a period of tw o minutes (user configurable) once pressed, whereby it w ill automatically reset.

Note: Upon an activated alarm the SAM2 RMS03 w ill keep the alarm activated until no movement is detected for the configured clear delay period. Sm oke Sensor An optical smoke sensor is used due to proven stability in air movements associated w ith air conditioning systems, thus ideal selection for GSM BTS sites. The sensor operates on the light scatter principal: Under normal conditions, light pulses in the Smoke Chamber do not reach the light sensor. With smoke in the Smoke Chamber, light is deflected into the light sensor, triggering an alarm. The SAM2 RMS03 monitors both a smoke alarm, but also the smoke sensor itself. Any malfunction or removal of the sensor from its base plate w ould result in an alarm (smoke detector alarm). The SAM2 RMS03 is configured (default) to keep a triggered smoke alarm active for a period of three minutes, to ensure that no alarms are re-triggered as the smoke dissipates. The SAM2 RMS03 provides the auxiliary 24Vdc supply to pow er the smoke sensor. Installation Steps: Make use of the universal alarm cable (2-pair, part of w iring cable kit) to connect the panic sensor to the SAM2 RMS03 cable termination unit S2(blue) and GD (blue/w hite) connection of the Spare I/PS screw terminal connector. S2 refers to spare alarm input 2 and GD to ground connection. Use the open-ended side of the cable and connect the blue and blue/w hite leads to N/C contact (blue and red leads) of the panic sensor. The N/O (green) lead is not used and not connected.

28. SAM2 RMS03 Mobile Phone SMS Commands


The SAM2 RMS03 mobile phone SMS commands is a feature that provides the technician w ith the ability to retrieve vital information from the monitored site, using a SMS text message through a normal mobile handset. The follow ing list of SMS text messages are available: Installation Steps: Make use of the universal alarm cable (2-pair, part of w iring cable kit) to connect the smoke sensor to the SAM2 RMS03 cable termination unit +P(blue) and -N (blue/w hite) connection of the Smoke screw terminal connector. +P refers to positive supply and -N to the negative supply. GD is not used. Ensure to w ire the smoke sensor according, terminal (5) refers to positive supply and terminal (3) to negative supply. Use a multi-meter to verify polarity and DC supply output from SAM2 RMS03 on smoke sensor. (ensure to measure 24Vdc confirm correct polarity) Note: Should the smoke sensor detect smoke w ithin the shelter, a smoke alarm w ould be activated (the red LED on the smoke sensor w ould be active). Once the alarm is activated, it w ould remain active for a period of three minutes (user configurable) before the alarm w ould clear, provided no additional smoke is detected w ithin the shelter.

29. SAM2 RMS03 RBS Alarm Outputs


The SAM2 RMS03 controller through the cable termination unit makes provision to provide sixteen general purpose (transistor) RBS alarm outputs, to be w ired to the BTS radio external alarm inputs. The SAM2 RMS03 controller has the ability to map any of the monitored alarm inputs to any of the sixteen RBS alarm outputs, using the SAM2 RMS03 serial diagnostic and configuration software. Multiple alarm inputs could be mapped to a single alarm output. The alarm outputs could additionally be configured as N/O or N/C. (N/C advisable to ensure alarm status is activated during a SAM2 RMS03 controller malfunction) Installation Steps:

(RBS type dependent). (referenced to A-leg being positive and B-leg being negative) The RBS alarm outputs could also be tested by simulating an alarm state change (on/off) using the SAM2 RMS03 LCD display Diagnostic - Test BTS Alarms, menu.

Make use of the RBS alarm input cable (20-pair w ith subD37 pin male connector, part of w iring cable kit) to connect to the BTS/RBS External Alarms SubD37 pin female connector located on the SAM2 RMS03 cable termination unit. Ensure w hen working w ith the 20-pair cable that all pairs are tw isted together, thus avoiding split pairs and unnecessary fault finding. Wire the open end of the 20-pair RBS alarm input cable to relevant RBS external alarm inputs via the existing DDF type connection block. (the DDF terminations vary from RBS type) Wire the 20-pair RBS alarm input cable according to the follow ing color scheme: (pairs are polarity sensitive, thus do not invert positive and negative legs).

END OF DOCUMENT

Note: The above alarm connections are just an example of possible interconnection to the RBS radio equipment via a (krone block type) DDF. Other varieties could be used on various sites. The alarm connections need to be tested on the SAM2 RMS03 controller by activating each individually to ensure alarm activation w ithin the BTS radio. Each alarm output could be inverted from N/C to N/O using the SAM2 RMS03 serial diagnostic and configuration software in order to conduct the above mentioned test. (ensure to restore the configuration once completed) By using a multimeter, each alarm can be tested on the SAM2 RBS Alarm Ouputs krone block. Active alarms should indicate 0Vdc and inactive alarms 5Vdc or 24Vdc SAM2V3 Product Manual V2.1.4 41
