2. Installing the Communication Option Card
A 30 pin serial communication option card (part # JENE-PC-LCDCARD, includes a data cable to
the LCD), provides communication and power from the JENE/JACE controller to the LCD. The
maximum distance allowed to power the LCD using the communication option card is limited to
50ft.
Typical applications that use this card include;
Controller Mounted (kit part no. JENE-
PCLCD-R-Unit), locally Mounted up to 50ft from the controller (kit part no. JENE-
PCLCD-R-Local) and the Hand Held or Service Tool (kit part no. JENE-PCLCD-R-
Service)
Installation Instructions
Step 1
Remove power from the JENE/JACE controller. Power to the JENE/JACE controller
must be OFF when installing or removing the JENE-PC-LCDCARD cards or damage
may occur. Also, you must be very careful to plug any JENE-PC-LCDCARD card into
its connector properly (pins aligned).
Step 2
Remove the JENE/JACE controller cover. To do this, select and press in the four tabs
on both ends of the unit and lift the cover off. Retain the cover in case the JENE-PC-
LCDCARD Housing Cover must be removed at a later date.
Step 3
Remove the battery and bracket assembly by taking out the four screws holding it in
place, setting the screws aside for later. Unplug the battery from the connector on the
JENE/JACE controller. See Figure 1 below.
Figure 1
Step 4
Remove the blanking end plate for the slot into which you are installing the JENE-PC-
LCDCARD card. Retain the blanking end plate in case the JENE-PC-LCDCARD card
must be removed at a later date.
Note:
No longer does the optional communication card block one of the serial ports (RS-232
or RS-485) on the controller.
Step 5
Carefully insert the pins of the JENE-PC-LCDCARD card into the socket of the
appropriate option slot. The mounting holes on the option board should line up with the
standoffs on the base board. If they do not, the connector is not properly aligned.
Press until the JENE-PC-LCDCARD card is completely seated. If you encounter any
resistance, check that the pins are aligned properly.
