Input Devices
Safety Devices must always have dual stop circuits in
either 2,3 or 4 wire format. These devices must drive
Channel C or Channel D. Channel C & D are Monitored
Safety Outputs (Channel E is not a monitored). The
Installer must determine which wire format meets the
safety category required for the job.
• Solid-State Output Safety Devices that provide
24vdc outputs are 2 wire devices.
• Dry Contact Safety Devices that do NOT
provide 24vdc outputs are 2, 3 or 4 wire devices
depending on Safety Category Level.
Input Sourcing (default) / Sinking . By default all
inputs are Sourcing (require +24vdc to close). All inputs
can be sinking or sourcing by configuring internal Jumpers
within the Universal Safety Controller HUB. Both 3 and 4
Wire Input Types can only be Sourcing.
Internal Jumpers JA1-JA12 and JB1-JB12:
Pins 1-2 = Sinking (GND) input
Pins 2-3 = Sourcing (+24vdc) input
(see page 6 diagram for l ocation of jumpers)
Input Wire Types.
• The 4 wire system meets the highest Safety
Level (Category 4). This is achieved by providing
the Safety Device with Dual pulsed 24vdc
signals. This enables the HUB to check for
shorts between the Dual Channels.
• The 3 Wire system saves a Terminal, but still
provides a pulsed 24vdc signal to the passive
Safety Device.
• The 2 Wire (pulsed input) system requires the
Safety Device to pulse its output as a check for
shorts between Dual Channels.
• The 2 Wire (standard) system requires the
Safety Device to check itself for shorts between
the Dual channels.
(see page 2)
Palm Button Station. Software inside the Universal
Safety Controller HUB provides the anti-tie-down and
concurrent operation checking. When either Button is
activated you have 1/4 second to activate the other
Button. When 1 Button is released, the other is required to
be released to re-activate. Standard Inputs activate when
both Channels close. Optionally, Output activates when
Channel A closed & Channel B open. Output not active
when Channel A open & Channel B closed. (see page 8
for wiring diagram)
MATS / Bumpers / Edges. The last 2 Terminals
of Channel A (A27-28) and Channel B (B51-52) can be
configured (Internal Jumpers JA21, JA22 & JB13, JB14)
for use with 4 Wire Mats, Bumpers, Edges. If you have
more than 1 of these devices, then all these devices must
be wired in series.
• Pins 1-2 = Terminals used as standard inputs
• Pins 2-3 = Terminals are used for Mats,
Bumpers, Edges.

(see page 10 diagram for wiring example)
Cincinnati Interface.
The Cincinnati Press will
cycle inputs every press cycle. When the inputs open, the
specific Channel output will also cycle. This is to prove the
Safety Outputs can still open and are still being monitored .
Mute-Out. Dual Signals must always be in opposite
states or a fault will occur. The Universal Safety Controller
HUB cannot turn on in a Muted condition or a fault will
occur.
Channel A B
Guard closed open
Mute open closed
Fault open open
Fault closed closed
(see page 8 diagram for wiring example)
Foot Pedal.
When the Foot Pedal Device is
programmed into the HUB, the corresponding Output is
controlled by Foot Pedal. When the Foot Pedal is Closed,
the Output is closed, unless any safety devices on the
same Output are Opened. If any safety device is opened,
the Output will remain open even after all the safety
devices are once again closed. You must take your foot
off of the Foot Pedal to reset the Output. At this point,
you may re-engage the Foot Pedal to Close the Output.
Complimentary Input Devices. Any device can
be wired into the HUB as a complimentary input device
(N.C./N.O.) as opposed to the standard input device (N.C./
N.C.). By adding the letter “C” to the device number, the
HUB will program the device as a complimentary device.
Mute-Out devices are automatically complimentary.
Limit Switch / Pressure Switch Devices.
If this
device is used as a STOP device, then select a standard
output. If this device is used as a Limit switch, then select
one of the special outputs that control the C or D outputs
used in Press control functioning.
Device Latching.
By selection special Output device
#’s you can allow a Input Device to latch an output. This
is not Relay Latching as described in the Output Section.
