J4, J5 heating element
outputs
Socket-style connectors J4 and J5 transfer the heater control signal (line voltage)
from the temperature controller to the furnace heater elements. The cables
connected to J4 and J5 are interchangeable.
J4 and J5 Heating Element Output Connections
J6 serial
communication
The J6 serial communication port has three functions:
•
Interlock input
The interlock input can be connected to an external (normally-closed)
switch or contact. If the external switch or contact opens, the temperature
controller alarm is triggered, and power is cut off to the heating elements.
•
Interlock contact output
The interlock output (relay output) can be connected to an external
monitoring device to follow the enable/alarm state of the temperature
controller. This contact is closed when the Model 409.83 Controller heating
elements are enabled. If an alarm is triggered or the Disable button is
pressed (interlock is open), a signal is sent to the external monitoring device.
•
RS–485 communication port to temperature control module
All functions and readout values in each Eurotherm 2216 Controller can be
monitored and adjusted by a single RS-485 serial port located at J6.
If nothing is connected to the J6 port, a jumper plug must be installed (MTS part
number 525099-01).
