This high - This hardware bulletin bandwidth channel has significantly greater throughput when compared to the traditional (external) serial gateway approach. ORDERING INFORMATION The G3USB option card is easily installed by removing the rear cover of your MODEL NO. DESCRIPTION PART NUMBER G3 operator interface, attaching the card using the supplied screws and connecting a single cable. Installing this card adds a USB host port to the G306A G3USB USB Host Option Card for G306A operator interface G3USBHC0 HMI that is not available on standard units. Having an on-board USB host port will allow such functionality as file transfer from CompactFlash to USB memory stick or attachment of peripherals such as a keyboard or bar code reader. SAFETY SUMMARY All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the literature or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it.

InstallIng the g3UsB OptIOn Card INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS To install the option card remove all power and communication cables from Caution: The option and main circuit boards contain static the unit. The chassis ground connection to the rear cover may be left connected. sensitive components. Before handling the cards, discharge The G3 operator interface literature contains instructions for removing the rear static charges from your body by touching a grounded bare cover, refer to the Battery & Time Keeping section. metal object. Ideally, handle the cards at a static controlled clean Using the three screws provided connect the option card to the rear cover as workstation. Also, handle the cards by the edges only. Dirt, oil, shown in Figure 1. or other contaminants that may contact the cards can adversely affect circuit operation. Warning: Depending upon the G3 operator interface, high voltage may be present inside the operator interface. Be sure to remove all power before removing the rear cover of the operator interface. Each G3USB option card comes with a cable for communications from the main G3 operator interface PC board. It also comes with three screws for attaching the option card to the inside of the G3 operator interfaces rear cover. Figure 2 Connect the cable from the option card to CN11 on the main board of the G3 operator interface as shown in Figure 2. Be sure both ends of the cables are firmly seated into their appropriate connector housing. Carefully replace the rear cover by reversing the previous instructions for removing the rear cover.
