A solid state replacement for the original Deagan electro-mechanical relay module used on the 67 type Tower Chime action.

[[File:3862.png|150px|frameless|right|Deagan 67 SS Action Controller]]

== Features ==
* High current coil outputs with active back-EMF quenching
** Optional third output for 67-O type Action
* Optical ram position sensors (replacement retract cup)
* Reverse polarity warning light
* Adjustable ram thrust power (volume control)
* Buttons for testing
* Supplied with new sensor retraction cup with new felts and leather bumpers

== Advantages ==
* Faster repeat times (should be used with our suspension cable stabilizers)
* Quieter operation (especially with removal of old reversing switch mechanism)
* Simple Installation
* Spark free operation
* No complicated contact adjustments
* Stuck-input protection
* Low current actuation input

== Installation ==
[[File:Striker3861.jpg|150px|frameless|right|Deagan 67 Hookup]]
* Remove old relay from top of the Deagan 67 action.
** Optionally remove bottom contacts and actuating arm to reduce friction and noise.
* Move coil return leads to positive terminal block (module coil outputs are negative)
* Move the head toward the chime. Replace the retraction cup with the new cup. Orient the cup so that the sensor cable exits the top. Tighten the cup bolt.
* Mount new module to the top of the action using the supplied bracket (terminal labels will be right-reading viewed from chime end).
* Connect positive and negative 48V as shown.
** Briefly, power the system and be sure the POLARITY REVERSED light does not come on.
* Connect the coil leads to the output terminals. Strike coil is the large bobbin at the chime end. Retract coil is at the rear. Optional O coil is the middle coil.
* Connect the action signal lead from the main relay to ACTUATION INPUT.

=== Testing ===
* Press the TEST ACTION button to test the striker.
* Press the TEST MODE button to select the test mode (1 to 3 times)
* Press the TEST MODE button to cancel tests
* Adjust the THRUST control clockwise for longer strike pulses. Reducing THRUST allows faster repeat times and lower chime ringing intensity.
Test Modes
* ERROR/MODE light not blinking - single strike
* ERROR/MODE light blinking once - 60 BPM for five minutes
* ERROR/MODE light blinking two times - 120 BPM for five minutes
* ERROR/MODE light blinking three times - 150 BPM for ten strikes

=== Error indications ===
* POLARITY REVERSED light indicates the motor generator or power supply leads are reversed.
** If coils are connected while reversed polarity voltage is supplied, the module will be damaged.
** Always verify polarity before connecting the action coils.
* ERROR light blinks steadily: The actuation input is stuck. Check for shorted keyboard or relay contacts.
* ERROR light on solid: Sensor error or strike cycle took longer than expected. Check connections and lubricate action.

Deagan 67 Action - Solid State relay module

Bell Control Technical Data 3700

2026-07-10T16:27:03Z

Rickwhite: /* Module Address Switch */

<div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[:Category:Installation|Installation]] '''</div> 

Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing. 
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]
== Technical description ==
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules
* Interface Module
* Power Supply Module
* Output Module(s)
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control

=== Module Connections and Warnings ===
The modules are tied together using a ribbon cable that carries low current power, control voltages and logic signals. Additionally high voltage DC jumpers feed 200VDC from the Power Supply Module to the DC striker output modules.

'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''

There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.

The low current ribbon cable at the top of the modules carries 12VDC and lower local potentials for logic signaling, but when a DC Striker module is part of the panel, the ribbon cable will have '''LETHAL VOLTAGES''' from the ribbon cable to '''EARTH GROUND''' when the Blue ACTIVE lights are on.

Do not attempt to troubleshoot or reprogram logic when DC Strikers or Combination Modules are connected to the power supply DC HI VOLTS header J2. The logic low current ground is not isolated and is referenced to -200 VDC.

'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''

The interface module features both a galvanically isolated, twisted pair wired interface to the control panel and an optional optical interface. Interface Module connectors located at the lower portion are safe.

When the modules are secured to the relay panel, and cables are installed, high voltage present on the bottom of the modules is not touchable. The test button housings are grounded to the electric panel, which is bonded to Equipment Earth ground attached to the power supply module.

=== Interface Configuration Switch ===

* Panel Address
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON
* Map Select
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet
* High Baud
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 1+3, module 5 as 2+3.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
* Standard configuration Map switches 4&5 are OFF, 6 is ON.
* Custom configurations (Interface module will have a label indicating the specials file number F''nnnnn'') for sub-bourdons and missing semitones Map switches 4&5 are ON, 6 is OFF.

Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:
* Panel 1 outputs notes C to B (first two octaves)
* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1+2 ON
* Module 7: 1+2+3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

===== AX Wall Mount Controller =====
The interface connector's 12V has insufficient current to power the AX Controller. In this case the tower panel will have a DIN rail mounted power supply to provide operating current for the controller. The data cable should have at least 18 AWG wires for lengths over 50 feet.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====
Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

Fiber STATUS is required for the AX controller to see that the tower panel is ready. If only one fiber channel is available, request a '''BLIND FIBER''' interface for the controller.

For multi-panel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 DATA terminals of all tower panels.

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3721 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3721 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==
=== Lights in normal operation ===
Interface module
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to enter self test mode]]
* '''ACTIVE''': indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.
* '''POWER''': 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''TEST MODE''': indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* '''SIGNAL''': blinks with input data.
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.
* '''INPUT''': indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.
* '''OUTPUT''': indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.
** Constant blinking (three per second) is normal.
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.
* '''12V''': DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''5V''': interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* '''Power''' - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* '''Ready''' - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* '''ERR''' - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right, unless a combo board for the largest bell is at the right end of the array.

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with '''Err''' lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is required. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the module's maximum allowed pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has [[Network_setup_AX|Internet connectivity]] before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Three buttons are mounted on the left vertical edge of the Interface Module. The top one is '''TEST''', the middle one is '''STEP''' and the bottom one is '''REPEAT'''. The test mode will time out to normal mode after three minutes of inactivity unless it is left in the ''repeat'' or ''scan'' modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press '''TEST''' - enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click '''TEST''' - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click '''TEST''' - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click '''STEP''' - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click '''REPEAT''' - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click '''STEP''' - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click '''REPEAT''' - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Click the '''STEP''' button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press '''STEP''' - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press '''REPEAT''' - (down) shorten pulse
* Click '''REPEAT''' - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press '''TEST''' - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, '''Input''' LED blinks four times
* Double click '''TEST''' - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

These adjustments do not affect motor enable output relays for intelliSwing panels.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for
* very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
* refurbished Deagan 67 actions with a [[DA3862 Deagan Solid State Action|solid state action control module]]
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized tolling hammers
:300 - five blinks - Deagan '67-O' type action with original relays
:550 - six blinks - Deagan '67-G' or '67-L' type action with original relays
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan '67-F' type action with original relays
:650 - eight blinks - rarely used

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

<div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[:Category:Installation|Installation]] '''</div> 

Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing. 
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]
== Technical description ==
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules
* Interface Module
* Power Supply Module
* Output Module(s)
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control

=== Module Connections and Warnings ===
The modules are tied together using a ribbon cable that carries low current power, control voltages and logic signals. Additionally high voltage DC jumpers feed 200VDC from the Power Supply Module to the DC striker output modules.

'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''

There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.

The low current ribbon cable at the top of the modules carries 12VDC and lower local potentials for logic signaling, but when a DC Striker module is part of the panel, the ribbon cable will have '''LETHAL VOLTAGES''' from the ribbon cable to '''EARTH GROUND''' when the Blue ACTIVE lights are on.

Do not attempt to troubleshoot or reprogram logic when DC Strikers or Combination Modules are connected to the power supply DC HI VOLTS header J2. The logic low current ground is not isolated and is referenced to -200 VDC.

'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''

The interface module features both a galvanically isolated, twisted pair wired interface to the control panel and an optional optical interface. Interface Module connectors located at the lower portion are safe.

When the modules are secured to the relay panel, and cables are installed, high voltage present on the bottom of the modules is not touchable. The test button housings are grounded to the electric panel, which is bonded to Equipment Earth ground attached to the power supply module.

=== Interface Configuration Switch ===

* Panel Address
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON
* Map Select
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet
* High Baud
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2.

For single panels needing 25 to 32 note outputs, module number 7 (switches 1+2 ON) and 8 (all switches ON) will be specified, but these addresses are generally reserved for Combo modules.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
* Standard configuration Map switches 4&5 are OFF, 6 is ON.
* Custom configurations (Interface module will have a label indicating the specials file number F''nnnnn'') for sub-bourdons and missing semitones Map switches 4&5 are ON, 6 is OFF.

Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:
* Panel 1 outputs notes C to B (first two octaves)
* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

===== AX Wall Mount Controller =====
The interface connector's 12V has insufficient current to power the AX Controller. In this case the tower panel will have a DIN rail mounted power supply to provide operating current for the controller. The data cable should have at least 18 AWG wires for lengths over 50 feet.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====
Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

Fiber STATUS is required for the AX controller to see that the tower panel is ready. If only one fiber channel is available, request a '''BLIND FIBER''' interface for the controller.

For multi-panel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 DATA terminals of all tower panels.

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3721 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3721 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==
=== Lights in normal operation ===
Interface module
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to enter self test mode]]
* '''ACTIVE''': indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.
* '''POWER''': 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''TEST MODE''': indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* '''SIGNAL''': blinks with input data.
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.
* '''INPUT''': indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.
* '''OUTPUT''': indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.
** Constant blinking (three per second) is normal.
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.
* '''12V''': DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''5V''': interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* '''Power''' - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* '''Ready''' - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* '''ERR''' - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right, unless a combo board for the largest bell is at the right end of the array.

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with '''Err''' lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is required. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the module's maximum allowed pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has [[Network_setup_AX|Internet connectivity]] before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Three buttons are mounted on the left vertical edge of the Interface Module. The top one is '''TEST''', the middle one is '''STEP''' and the bottom one is '''REPEAT'''. The test mode will time out to normal mode after three minutes of inactivity unless it is left in the ''repeat'' or ''scan'' modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press '''TEST''' - enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click '''TEST''' - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click '''TEST''' - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click '''STEP''' - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click '''REPEAT''' - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click '''STEP''' - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click '''REPEAT''' - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Click the '''STEP''' button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press '''STEP''' - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press '''REPEAT''' - (down) shorten pulse
* Click '''REPEAT''' - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press '''TEST''' - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, '''Input''' LED blinks four times
* Double click '''TEST''' - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

These adjustments do not affect motor enable output relays for intelliSwing panels.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for
* very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
* refurbished Deagan 67 actions with a [[DA3862 Deagan Solid State Action|solid state action control module]]
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized tolling hammers
:300 - five blinks - Deagan '67-O' type action with original relays
:550 - six blinks - Deagan '67-G' or '67-L' type action with original relays
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan '67-F' type action with original relays
:650 - eight blinks - rarely used

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.

* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

Custom mapping available for sub-bourdons and missing semitones.

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

===== AX Wall Mount Controller =====
The interface connector's 12V has insufficient current to power the AX Controller. In this case the tower panel will have a DIN rail mounted power supply to provide operating current for the controller. The data cable should have at least 18 AWG wires for lengths over 50 feet.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====
Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

Fiber STATUS is required for the AX controller to see that the tower panel is ready. If only one fiber channel is available, request a '''BLIND FIBER''' interface for the controller.

For multi-panel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 DATA terminals of all tower panels.

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3721 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3721 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==

Interface module
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to enter self test mode]]
* '''ACTIVE''': indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.
* '''POWER''': 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''TEST MODE''': indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* '''SIGNAL''': blinks with input data.
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.
* '''INPUT''': indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.
* '''OUTPUT''': indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.
** Constant blinking (three per second) is normal.
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.
* '''12V''': DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''5V''': interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* '''Power''' - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* '''Ready''' - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* '''ERR''' - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right, unless a combo board for the largest bell is at the right end of the array.

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with '''Err''' lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is required. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the module's maximum allowed pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has [[Network_setup_AX|Internet connectivity]] before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Three buttons are mounted on the left vertical edge of the Interface Module. The top one is '''TEST''', the middle one is '''STEP''' and the bottom one is '''REPEAT'''. The test mode will time out to normal mode after three minutes of inactivity unless it is left in the ''repeat'' or ''scan'' modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press '''TEST''' - enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click '''TEST''' - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click '''TEST''' - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click '''STEP''' - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click '''REPEAT''' - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click '''STEP''' - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click '''REPEAT''' - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Click the '''STEP''' button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press '''STEP''' - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press '''REPEAT''' - (down) shorten pulse
* Click '''REPEAT''' - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press '''TEST''' - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, '''Input''' LED blinks four times
* Double click '''TEST''' - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

These adjustments do not affect motor enable output relays for intelliSwing panels.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for
* very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
* refurbished Deagan 67 actions with a [[DA3862 Deagan Solid State Action|solid state action control module]]
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized tolling hammers
:300 - five blinks - Deagan '67-O' type action with original relays
:550 - six blinks - Deagan '67-G' or '67-L' type action with original relays
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan '67-F' type action with original relays
:650 - eight blinks - rarely used

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

<div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[:Category:Installation|Installation]] '''</div> 

Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing. 
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]
== Technical description ==
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules
* Interface Module
* Power Supply Module
* Output Module(s)
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control

=== Module Connections and Warnings ===
The modules are tied together using a ribbon cable that carries low current power, control voltages and logic signals. Additionally high voltage DC jumpers feed 200VDC from the Power Supply Module to the DC striker output modules.

'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''

There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.

The low current ribbon cable at the top of the modules carries 12VDC and lower local potentials for logic signaling, but when a DC Striker module is part of the panel, the ribbon cable will have '''LETHAL VOLTAGES''' from the ribbon cable to '''EARTH GROUND''' when the Blue ACTIVE lights are on.

Do not attempt to troubleshoot or reprogram logic when DC Strikers or Combination Modules are connected to the power supply DC HI VOLTS header J2. The logic low current ground is not isolated and is referenced to -200 VDC.

'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''

The interface module features both a galvanically isolated, twisted pair wired interface to the control panel and an optional optical interface. Interface Module connectors located at the lower portion are safe.

When the modules are secured to the relay panel, and cables are installed, high voltage present on the bottom of the modules is not touchable. The test button housings are grounded to the electric panel, which is bonded to Equipment Earth ground attached to the power supply module.

=== Interface Configuration Switch ===

* Panel Address
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON

* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet
* High Baud
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2.

For single panels needing 25 to 32 note outputs, module number 7 (switches 1+2 ON) and 8 (all switches ON) will be specified, but these addresses are generally reserved for Combo modules.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
Carillon panels come in three sizes. Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
* Interface configuration Map switch 6 is ON.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:

* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

Custom mapping available for sub-bourdons and missing semitones.

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Only use the following for Deagan or motorized tolling hammers
:300 - five blinks - Deagan '67-O' type action with original relays
:550 - six blinks - Deagan '67-G' or '67-L' type action with original relays
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan '67-F' type action with original relays
:650 - eight blinks - rarely used

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

Rickwhite: /* 3721 Combo Module */

<div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[:Category:Installation|Installation]] '''</div> 

Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing. 
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]
== Technical description ==
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules
* Interface Module
* Power Supply Module
* Output Module(s)
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control

=== Module Connections and Warnings ===
The modules are tied together using a ribbon cable that carries low current power, control voltages and logic signals. Additionally high voltage DC jumpers feed 200VDC from the Power Supply Module to the DC striker output modules.

'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''

There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.

The low current ribbon cable at the top of the modules carries 12VDC and lower local potentials for logic signaling, but when a DC Striker module is part of the panel, the ribbon cable will have '''LETHAL VOLTAGES''' from the ribbon cable to '''EARTH GROUND''' when the Blue ACTIVE lights are on.

Do not attempt to troubleshoot or reprogram logic when DC Strikers or Combination Modules are connected to the power supply DC HI VOLTS header J2. The logic low current ground is not isolated and is referenced to -200 VDC.

'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''

The interface module features both a galvanically isolated, twisted pair wired interface to the control panel and an optional optical interface. Interface Module connectors located at the lower portion are safe.

When the modules are secured to the relay panel, and cables are installed, high voltage present on the bottom of the modules is not touchable. The test button housings are grounded to the electric panel, which is bonded to Equipment Earth ground attached to the power supply module.

=== Interface Configuration Switch ===

* Panel Address
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON
* Map Select
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet
* High Baud
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2.

For single panels needing 25 to 32 note outputs, module number 7 (switches 1+2 ON) and 8 (all switches ON) will be specified, but these addresses are generally reserved for Combo modules.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
Carillon panels come in three sizes. Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
* Interface configuration Map switch 6 is ON.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:
* Panel 1 outputs notes C to B (first two octaves)
* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

Custom mapping available for sub-bourdons and missing semitones.

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====

Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3721 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3721 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==
=== Lights in normal operation ===
Interface module
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to enter self test mode]]
* '''ACTIVE''': indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.
* '''POWER''': 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''TEST MODE''': indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* '''SIGNAL''': blinks with input data.
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.
* '''INPUT''': indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.
* '''OUTPUT''': indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.
** Constant blinking (three per second) is normal.
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.
* '''12V''': DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''5V''': interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* '''Power''' - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* '''Ready''' - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* '''ERR''' - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right, unless a combo board for the largest bell is at the right end of the array.

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with '''Err''' lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is required. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the module's maximum allowed pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has [[Network_setup_AX|Internet connectivity]] before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Three buttons are mounted on the left vertical edge of the Interface Module. The top one is '''TEST''', the middle one is '''STEP''' and the bottom one is '''REPEAT'''. The test mode will time out to normal mode after three minutes of inactivity unless it is left in the ''repeat'' or ''scan'' modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press '''TEST''' - enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click '''TEST''' - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click '''TEST''' - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click '''STEP''' - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click '''REPEAT''' - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click '''STEP''' - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click '''REPEAT''' - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Click the '''STEP''' button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press '''STEP''' - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press '''REPEAT''' - (down) shorten pulse
* Click '''REPEAT''' - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press '''TEST''' - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, '''Input''' LED blinks four times
* Double click '''TEST''' - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

These adjustments do not affect motor enable output relays for intelliSwing panels.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for
* very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
* refurbished Deagan 67 actions with a [[DA3862 Deagan Solid State Action|solid state action control module]]
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized tolling hammers
:300 - five blinks - Deagan '67-O' type action with original relays
:550 - six blinks - Deagan '67-G' or '67-L' type action with original relays
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan '67-F' type action with original relays
:650 - eight blinks - rarely used

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====

Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==
=== Lights in normal operation ===
Interface module
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to enter self test mode]]
* '''ACTIVE''': indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.
* '''POWER''': 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''TEST MODE''': indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* '''SIGNAL''': blinks with input data.
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.
* '''INPUT''': indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.
* '''OUTPUT''': indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.
** Constant blinking (three per second) is normal.
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.
* '''12V''': DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''5V''': interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* '''Power''' - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* '''Ready''' - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* '''ERR''' - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right, unless a combo board for the largest bell is at the right end of the array.

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with '''Err''' lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is required. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the module's maximum allowed pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has [[Network_setup_AX|Internet connectivity]] before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Three buttons are mounted on the left vertical edge of the Interface Module. The top one is '''TEST''', the middle one is '''STEP''' and the bottom one is '''REPEAT'''. The test mode will time out to normal mode after three minutes of inactivity unless it is left in the ''repeat'' or ''scan'' modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press '''TEST''' - enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click '''TEST''' - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click '''TEST''' - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click '''STEP''' - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click '''REPEAT''' - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click '''STEP''' - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click '''REPEAT''' - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Click the '''STEP''' button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press '''STEP''' - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press '''REPEAT''' - (down) shorten pulse
* Click '''REPEAT''' - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press '''TEST''' - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, '''Input''' LED blinks four times
* Double click '''TEST''' - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

These adjustments do not affect motor enable output relays for intelliSwing panels.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for
* very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
* refurbished Deagan 67 actions with a [[DA3862 Deagan Solid State Action|solid state action control module]]
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized tolling hammers
:300 - five blinks - Deagan '67-O' type action with original relays
:550 - six blinks - Deagan '67-G' or '67-L' type action with original relays
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan '67-F' type action with original relays
:650 - eight blinks - rarely used

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

Rickwhite: /* Adjust output pulse time */

<div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[:Category:Installation|Installation]] '''</div> 

Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing. 
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]
== Technical description ==
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules
* Interface Module
* Power Supply Module
* Output Module(s)
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control

=== Module Connections and Warnings ===
The modules are tied together using a ribbon cable that carries low current power, control voltages and logic signals. Additionally high voltage DC jumpers feed 200VDC from the Power Supply Module to the DC striker output modules.

'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''

There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.

The low current ribbon cable at the top of the modules carries 12VDC and lower local potentials for logic signaling, but when a DC Striker module is part of the panel, the ribbon cable will have '''LETHAL VOLTAGES''' from the ribbon cable to '''EARTH GROUND''' when the Blue ACTIVE lights are on.

Do not attempt to troubleshoot or reprogram logic when DC Strikers or Combination Modules are connected to the power supply DC HI VOLTS header J2. The logic low current ground is not isolated and is referenced to -200 VDC.

'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''

The interface module features both a galvanically isolated, twisted pair wired interface to the control panel and an optional optical interface. Interface Module connectors located at the lower portion are safe.

When the modules are secured to the relay panel, and cables are installed, high voltage present on the bottom of the modules is not touchable. The test button housings are grounded to the electric panel, which is bonded to Equipment Earth ground attached to the power supply module.

=== Interface Configuration Switch ===

* Panel Address
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON
* Map Select
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet
* High Baud
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2.

For single panels needing 25 to 32 note outputs, module number 7 (switches 1+2 ON) and 8 (all switches ON) will be specified, but these addresses are generally reserved for Combo modules.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
Carillon panels come in three sizes. Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
* Interface configuration Map switch 6 is ON.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:
* Panel 1 outputs notes C to B (first two octaves)
* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

Custom mapping available for sub-bourdons and missing semitones.

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====

Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* '''Power''' - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* '''Ready''' - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* '''ERR''' - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with '''Err''' lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has Internet connectivity before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Three buttons are mounted on the left vertical edge of the Interface Module. The top one is '''TEST''', the middle one is '''STEP''' and the bottom one is '''REPEAT'''. The test mode will time out to normal mode after three minutes of inactivity unless it is left in the ''repeat'' or ''scan'' modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press '''TEST''' - enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click '''TEST''' - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click '''TEST''' - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click '''STEP''' - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click '''REPEAT''' - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click '''STEP''' - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click '''REPEAT''' - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Click the '''STEP''' button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press '''STEP''' - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press '''REPEAT''' - (down) shorten pulse
* Click '''REPEAT''' - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press '''TEST''' - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, '''Input''' LED blinks four times
* Double click '''TEST''' - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

These adjustments do not affect motor enable output relays for intelliSwing panels.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for
* very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
* refurbished Deagan 67 actions with a [[DA3862 Deagan Solid State Action|solid state action control module]]
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized tolling hammers
:300 - five blinks - Deagan '67-O' type action with original relays
:550 - six blinks - Deagan '67-G' or '67-L' type action with original relays
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan '67-F' type action with original relays
:650 - eight blinks - rarely used

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

<div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[:Category:Installation|Installation]] '''</div> 

Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing. 
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]
== Technical description ==
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules
* Interface Module
* Power Supply Module
* Output Module(s)
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control

=== Module Connections and Warnings ===
The modules are tied together using a ribbon cable that carries low current power, control voltages and logic signals. Additionally high voltage DC jumpers feed 200VDC from the Power Supply Module to the DC striker output modules.

'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''

There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.

The low current ribbon cable at the top of the modules carries 12VDC and lower local potentials for logic signaling, but when a DC Striker module is part of the panel, the ribbon cable will have '''LETHAL VOLTAGES''' from the ribbon cable to '''EARTH GROUND''' when the Blue ACTIVE lights are on.

Do not attempt to troubleshoot or reprogram logic when DC Strikers or Combination Modules are connected to the power supply DC HI VOLTS header J2. The logic low current ground is not isolated and is referenced to -200 VDC.

'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''

The interface module features both a galvanically isolated, twisted pair wired interface to the control panel and an optional optical interface. Interface Module connectors located at the lower portion are safe.

When the modules are secured to the relay panel, and cables are installed, high voltage present on the bottom of the modules is not touchable. The test button housings are grounded to the electric panel, which is bonded to Equipment Earth ground attached to the power supply module.

=== Interface Configuration Switch ===

* Panel Address
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON
* Map Select
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON

* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet
* High Baud
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2.

For single panels needing 25 to 32 note outputs, module number 7 (switches 1+2 ON) and 8 (all switches ON) will be specified, but these addresses are generally reserved for Combo modules.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
Carillon panels come in three sizes. Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
* Interface configuration Map switch 6 is ON.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:
* Panel 1 outputs notes C to B (first two octaves)
* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

Custom mapping available for sub-bourdons and missing semitones.

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====

Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==
=== Lights in normal operation ===
Interface module
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to enter self test mode]]
* '''ACTIVE''': indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.
* '''POWER''': 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''TEST MODE''': indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* '''SIGNAL''': blinks with input data.
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.
* '''INPUT''': indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.
* '''OUTPUT''': indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.
** Constant blinking (three per second) is normal.
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.
* '''12V''': DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''5V''': interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* '''Power''' - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* '''Ready''' - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* '''ERR''' - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with '''Err''' lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has Internet connectivity before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Three buttons are mounted on the left vertical edge of the Interface Module. The top one is '''TEST''', the middle one is '''STEP''' and the bottom one is '''REPEAT'''. The test mode will time out to normal mode after three minutes of inactivity unless it is left in the ''repeat'' or ''scan'' modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press '''TEST''' - enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click '''TEST''' - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click '''TEST''' - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click '''STEP''' - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click '''REPEAT''' - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click '''STEP''' - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click '''REPEAT''' - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Click the '''STEP''' button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press '''STEP''' - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press '''REPEAT''' - (down) shorten pulse
* Click '''REPEAT''' - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press '''TEST''' - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, '''Input''' LED blinks four times
* Double click '''TEST''' - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

These adjustments do not affect motor enable output relays for intelliSwing panels.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for
* very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
* refurbished Deagan 67 actions with DA3862 solid state action control module
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized tolling hammers
:300 - five blinks - Deagan 'O' type action with original relays
:550 - six blinks - Deagan 'G' or 'L' type action with original relays
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan 'F' type action with original relays
:650 - eight blinks - rarely used

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

<div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[:Category:Installation|Installation]] '''</div> 

Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing. 
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]
== Technical description ==
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules
* Interface Module
* Power Supply Module
* Output Module(s)
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control

=== Module Connections and Warnings ===
The modules are tied together using a ribbon cable that carries low current power, control voltages and logic signals. Additionally high voltage DC jumpers feed 200VDC from the Power Supply Module to the DC striker output modules.

'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''

There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.

The low current ribbon cable at the top of the modules carries 12VDC and lower local potentials for logic signaling, but when a DC Striker module is part of the panel, the ribbon cable will have '''LETHAL VOLTAGES''' from the ribbon cable to '''EARTH GROUND''' when the Blue ACTIVE lights are on.

Do not attempt to troubleshoot or reprogram logic when DC Strikers or Combination Modules are connected to the power supply DC HI VOLTS header J2. The logic low current ground is not isolated and is referenced to -200 VDC.

'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''

The interface module features both a galvanically isolated, twisted pair wired interface to the control panel and an optional optical interface. Interface Module connectors located at the lower portion are safe.

When the modules are secured to the relay panel, and cables are installed, high voltage present on the bottom of the modules is not touchable. The test button housings are grounded to the electric panel, which is bonded to Equipment Earth ground attached to the power supply module.

=== Interface Configuration Switch ===

* Panel Address
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON
* Map Select
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON

* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet
* High Baud
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2.

For single panels needing 25 to 32 note outputs, module number 7 (switches 1+2 ON) and 8 (all switches ON) will be specified, but these addresses are generally reserved for Combo modules.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
Carillon panels come in three sizes. Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
* Interface configuration Map switch 6 is ON.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:
* Panel 1 outputs notes C to B (first two octaves)
* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

Custom mapping available for sub-bourdons and missing semitones.

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====

Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==
=== Lights in normal operation ===
Interface module
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to enter self test mode]]
* '''ACTIVE''': indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.
* '''POWER''': 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''TEST MODE''': indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* '''SIGNAL''': blinks with input data.
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.
* '''INPUT''': indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.
* '''OUTPUT''': indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.
** Constant blinking (three per second) is normal.
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.
* '''12V''': DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* '''5V''': interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* '''Power''' - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* '''Ready''' - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* '''Active''' - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* '''ERR''' - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with '''Err''' lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has Internet connectivity before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Three buttons are mounted on the left vertical edge of the Interface Module. The top one is '''TEST''', the middle one is '''STEP''' and the bottom one is '''REPEAT'''. The test mode will time out to normal mode after three minutes of inactivity unless it is left in the ''repeat'' or ''scan'' modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press '''TEST''' - enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click '''TEST''' - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click '''TEST''' - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click '''STEP''' - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click '''REPEAT''' - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click '''STEP''' - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click '''REPEAT''' - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Click the '''STEP''' button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press '''STEP''' - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press '''REPEAT''' - (down) shorten pulse
* Click '''REPEAT''' - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press '''TEST''' - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, '''Input''' LED blinks four times
* Double click '''TEST''' - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

These adjustments do not affect motor enable output relays for intelliSwing panels.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for
** very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
** refurbished Deagan 67 actions with DA3862 solid state action control module
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized tolling hammers
:300 - five blinks - Deagan 'O' type action with original relays
:550 - six blinks - Deagan 'G' or 'L' type action with original relays
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan 'F' type action with original relays
:650 - eight blinks - rarely used

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

Rickwhite: /* Deagan Damper relay */

<div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[:Category:Installation|Installation]] '''</div> 

Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing. 
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]
== Technical description ==
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules
* Interface Module
* Power Supply Module
* Output Module(s)
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control

=== Module Connections and Warnings ===
The modules are tied together using a ribbon cable that carries low current power, control voltages and logic signals. Additionally high voltage DC jumpers feed 200VDC from the Power Supply Module to the DC striker output modules.

'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''

There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.

The low current ribbon cable at the top of the modules carries 12VDC and lower local potentials for logic signaling, but when a DC Striker module is part of the panel, the ribbon cable will have '''LETHAL VOLTAGES''' from the ribbon cable to '''EARTH GROUND''' when the Blue ACTIVE lights are on.

Do not attempt to troubleshoot or reprogram logic when DC Strikers or Combination Modules are connected to the power supply DC HI VOLTS header J2. The logic low current ground is not isolated and is referenced to -200 VDC.

'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''

The interface module features both a galvanically isolated, twisted pair wired interface to the control panel and an optional optical interface. Interface Module connectors located at the lower portion are safe.

When the modules are secured to the relay panel, and cables are installed, high voltage present on the bottom of the modules is not touchable. The test button housings are grounded to the electric panel, which is bonded to Equipment Earth ground attached to the power supply module.

=== Interface Configuration Switch ===

* Panel Address
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON
* Map Select
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet
* High Baud
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2.

For single panels needing 25 to 32 note outputs, module number 7 (switches 1+2 ON) and 8 (all switches ON) will be specified, but these addresses are generally reserved for Combo modules.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
Carillon panels come in three sizes. Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
* Interface configuration Map switch 6 is ON.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:
* Panel 1 outputs notes C to B (first two octaves)
* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

Custom mapping available for sub-bourdons and missing semitones.

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====

Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==
=== Lights in normal operation ===
Interface module
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to enter self test mode]]
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has Internet connectivity before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Self test will time out to normal operation in three minutes (from last output test) unless it is left in the repeat or scan modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
:300 - five blinks - Deagan 'O' type striker
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized strikers
:550 - six blinks - Deagan 'G' or 'L' type stiker
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan 'F' type striker
:650 - eight blinks

Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, Input LED blinks four times
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2.

For single panels needing 25 to 32 note outputs, module number 7 (switches 1+2 ON) and 8 (all switches ON) will be specified, but these addresses are generally reserved for Combo modules.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
Carillon panels come in three sizes. Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
* Interface configuration Map switch 6 is ON.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:
* Panel 1 outputs notes C to B (first two octaves)
* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

Custom mapping available for sub-bourdons and missing semitones.

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====

Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==
=== Lights in normal operation ===
Interface module
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to enter self test mode]]
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has Internet connectivity before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Self test will time out to normal operation in three minutes (from last output test) unless it is left in the repeat or scan modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
:300 - five blinks - Deagan 'O' type striker
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized strikers
:550 - six blinks - Deagan 'G' or 'L' type stiker
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan 'F' type striker
:650 - eight blinks

Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, Input LED blinks four times
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to optionally toll the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for single tone or harmonic Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

<div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[:Category:Installation|Installation]] '''</div> 

Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing. 
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]
== Technical description ==
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules
* Interface Module
* Power Supply Module
* Output Module(s)
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control

=== Module Connections and Warnings ===
The modules are tied together using a ribbon cable that carries low current power, control voltages and logic signals. Additionally high voltage DC jumpers feed 200VDC from the Power Supply Module to the DC striker output modules.

'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''

There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.

The low current ribbon cable at the top of the modules carries 12VDC and lower local potentials for logic signaling, but when a DC Striker module is part of the panel, the ribbon cable will have '''LETHAL VOLTAGES''' from the ribbon cable to '''EARTH GROUND''' when the Blue ACTIVE lights are on.

Do not attempt to troubleshoot or reprogram logic when DC Strikers or Combination Modules are connected to the power supply DC HI VOLTS header J2. The logic low current ground is not isolated and is referenced to -200 VDC.

'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''

The interface module features both a galvanically isolated, twisted pair wired interface to the control panel and an optional optical interface. Interface Module connectors located at the lower portion are safe.

When the modules are secured to the relay panel, and cables are installed, high voltage present on the bottom of the modules is not touchable. The test button housings are grounded to the electric panel, which is bonded to Equipment Earth ground attached to the power supply module.

=== Module Address Switch ===
Module addresses are human readable (not binary). The switches are numbered 1 to 3 left to right at the top of each module. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2.

For single panels needing 25 to 32 note outputs, module number 7 (switches 1+2 ON) and 8 (all switches ON) will be specified, but these addresses are generally reserved for Combo modules.

==== Non-musical controls ====
Combo Modules do not have address switches. If two are used, the second one will have its address jumper soldered.

Quad output modules are set as follows:
* First striker module 0 - All switches OFF
* Second striker module 1 - Switch 1 ON
* First motor relay module 2 - Switch 2 ON
* Second motor relay module 3 - Switch 3 ON

==== Chimes ====
Single panel of up to four modules numbered left to right.
* Interface configuration Map switch 5 is ON.
Modules addressed from 0 up to 3
* Up to 13 diatonic notes plus the leading tone, sharp 4th and flat 7th semitones
Modules addressed from 1 up to 4
* Up to 15 diatonic notes plus the flat 7th semitone
If other semitones are needed, use a carillon configuration skipping outputs as not needed.

==== Carillon panels ====
Carillon panels come in three sizes. Notes given are for a non-transposed instrument. Transposition is set up in the controller if needed.
* Interface configuration Map switch 6 is ON.
===== Five output modules =====
Up to three 20 output panels support five octaves minus one semitone. Address the modules from 1 to 5:
* Panel 1 skips first semitone for notes C to G#
* Panel 2 outputs notes A to E
* Panel 3 outputs notes F to C

===== Six output modules =====
Three 24 output panels support six octaves fully chromatic. Address the modules from 0 to 5:
* Panel 1 outputs notes C to B (first two octaves)
* Panel 2 outputs notes C to B (third and fourth octaves)
* Panel 3 outputs notes C to B (fifth and sixth octaves)

Custom mapping available for sub-bourdons and missing semitones.

===== Seven or eight output modules =====
From 25 to 32 fully chromatic outputs on a single panel. Address the modules from 0 to 7:
* Module 6: 1 and 2 ON
* Module 7: 1, 2 and 3 ON

== Installation ==
Primary power from the local disconnect is connected to the Power Supply Module at '''L1''' and '''L2'''. Earth safety is tied to the third terminal with the ground symbol (bonded to the chassis).

Strip input and output wires to 3/8 inch (10mm) for lever action terminals. Take care to insert all strands of wire into the terminal and that they do not contact each other outside the terminal.
=== Interface to controller ===
==== AX Systems with data cable ====
[[File:3700 AX Connection.jpg.jpg|AX output|thumb|200px]]
[[File:AX 3700Panel.jpg.jpg|3700 input|thumb|200px]]

The 485 input connector is pinned out one to one the same as the AX tower connector. When multiple panels are used, parallel the data cable to all panels.

Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT-
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)
# 12V- (isolated data common and interface power - NOT Earth or cable shield)
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)
# DATA-

If shielded cable is used (recommended), connect the shield to the lower right mounting screw of the Interface Module. Do not connect the shield at the controller end.

==== AX Fiber optic cable ====

Use [[Optical_fiber_interface|Multi-mode Duplex cable]] with two ST connectors at each end. Use care when installing the cable to prevent kinks and damage to the ends. The ends should be marked by color, number or with specification text on one channel of the 'zip' cord. Whichever channel is plugged into the left STATUS of the tower panel, also connects to the left STATUS connector on the rear of the AX touch screen controller. The opposite color should be plugged into the right DATA connectors at both ends.

For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).

==== LX Systems ====
[[File:LX.jpg|LX ouput|thumb|200px]]

Sufficient power is available from the 12V terminals of the interface to operate the LX control panel. If the data cable length causes the supply voltage to drop so that the LX control panel does not operate, try the following remedies.

* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.

# STAT+ (not used)
# STAT- (not used)
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)

Chassis ground for the LX controller pins 3 and 6 can be obtained using the bottom right mounting screw of the relay panel's interface module.

=== DC Striker outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
One DC striker output is provided on the Combo Module. Connect one 200 VDC striker or hammer to the '''POS''' and '''NEG''' terminals. Polarity does not matter.

==== 3731 Quad DC Striker Module ====
Four DC striker outputs are provided on each of these modules. Typically the bells are connected to the outputs from left to right in order of size, large to small.

For five striker outputs, a combo module may be installed to the right of the quad module. The bell that connects to the Combo module is the largest bell. The smaller bells will be connected left to right in order of size to the quad module.

Polarity + (POS, Positive) and - (NEG, Negative) refers to the power supply connection. Strikers and hammers do not care about their polarity connection. In some cases (for smaller bells) a common positive line may be run to the tower from a '''POS''' output terminal for up to four strikers.

Typically a pair of wires from the striker will connect to two terminals:
* '''POS''' terminals are all bussed together on the module
* '''OUT1''' .. '''OUT4''' use advanced transistors to pulse the Negative 200VDC supply to the strikers

Double check stranded wiring to be sure the output terminals do not have stray wire strands that might short the outputs. The output fuses rarely protect the transistors from shorted outputs.

=== Swinging motor outputs ===
==== 3721 Combo Module ====
This module supports up to three swinging bells.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3721 '''FUSED INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''1 N.O.''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs.

==== 3740 Quad Relays ====
This module has four normally open dry contacts with a common input.

Connect low current swinging motor enable lines to the 3740 Relay modules as follows:
* intelliSwing motor panel '''L1 OUT''' (from logic circuit breaker) connects to 3740 '''INPUT''' terminal
* intelliSwing motor panel '''S1 IN''' (switch input) connects to 3740 '''OUT1''' terminal
** subsequent motors similarly connect to their respective outputs
** the dual 3740 '''INPUT''' terminals may be used to daisy chain modules for more than four outputs
=== Other output options ===
High current solid state relays may be used to switch AC or DC loads as may be required for special applications. These connections will be made to terminals provided according hookup diagrams supplied with the panel.

== Troubleshooting ==
=== Lights in normal operation ===

** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.

** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.

Power module
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.

Output modules
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).

=== Error lights ===
==== Configuration error ====
Configuration errors are indicated by blinking Input light on the interface board. If no error lights are lit on output modules then the problem is an invalid setting of the Panel Configuration switch on the interface board. If an error light is lit on an output module, its address switch is incorrectly set for that type of panel.

Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).

* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem
* Modules have error lights regardless of switch setting
** Check that the ribbon cable connection on all modules is fully seated

==== Operational error ====
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.
** If Bit Map mode is selected (Map configuration switches 4, 5 and 6 are all ON), a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light should be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes). Factory technicians must adjust pulse times using Chime.Center. Make sure the system has Internet connectivity before calling for service.

=== Test buttons ===
Self test will time out to normal operation in three minutes (from last output test) unless it is left in the repeat or scan modes. Those modes will operate continuously until canceled.

* Quick Tests
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction
*** doesn't fire output
*** discards all output timing edits
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse output step direction
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click

==== Adjust output pulse time ====
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.

Available striker pulse times (milliseconds - setting is indicated by blinking Input LED):
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)
:300 - five blinks - Deagan 'O' type striker
Only use the following for Deagan or motorized strikers
:550 - six blinks - Deagan 'G' or 'L' type stiker
:600 - seven blinks - Deagan 'F' type striker
:650 - eight blinks

Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width.
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test
** During save, Input LED blinks four times
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)

If you want to reset to default pulse times to factory defaults:
* Change the module configuration as follows
** Power off the panel
** Unplug ribbon bus from one of the modules
** Power on, wait for two seconds and power back off
** Plug the ribbon bus back into the module
** Power on the panel

== Other applications ==
=== Minute impulse clocks ===
This application requires a 3721 combo module with dry contacts to switch the voltage to the minute impulse clock movements.
* set all three Panel address switches ON
* set map switch 4 ON
* set high baud ON if system plays music (speakers or bell clappers)
* output 2 N.O. is odd minutes
* output 3 N.O. is even minutes
* a single DC tolling hammer output is provided to ring the hour

=== Deagan Damper relay ===
This relay panel supports up to 32 Damper outputs to be used in conjunction with a striker panel for single tone or harmonic Deagan Tower Chimes. We have improved upon Deagan's model 72-74 mechanical relays in conjunction with our Libertas AX controller.

* Harmonic bells supported with a sustain pedal that works like a piano during chord changes
* Single tone (melody only) playing never requires sustain pedaling or legato keying
* Adjustable transition time to delay note muting

This application requires '''DAMPER''' firmware installed on the interface module.
* set the Panel Configuration switches the same as the striker output panel

Refer to the [[Bell_Control_Technical_Data_3700#Adjust_output_pulse_time|pulse setting instructions]] above to adjust the transition time between notes while in the self test mode. This is a single setting for all notes in the chime (unlike striker pulse timing). Exiting self test mode will save the adjustment permanently to non-volatile memory.

When new notes are played, the transition time allows the previous note to ring longer before its Damper is released to mute the note. This time is adjustable in eight steps from none (immediate mute) to one second.

== Repairs ==
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.

When replacing a module with a configuration or address switch. Make sure that the switch on the replacement module matches that of the original module before powering the panel.

=== DC Striker Module ===
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules
* Remove the output fuses from the module
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts

=== Combo Module ===
To test the striker output of the Combo module, use the steps above as for the DC Striker Module.
* Hold the red meter probe to the bottom of the striker fuse
* Touch the black meter probe to the middle lead of Q1
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)

Updating AX

2026-06-04T22:05:21Z

Rickwhite: /* Temporarily Move System */

[[File:AllAX.png|frameless|1000px]]

A permanent internet connection is preferred, but if that is not reasonable in your situation, the options listed below can provide a temporary network so you can receive the updates your Advanced eXperience needs. Keep in mind, the further behind your system is, the longer it will take to complete the updates.
 
Please call us to schedule a time that you can have the system connected to the Internet so we can update it.

=== Connection Options ===

==== Leave System in Location ====
To connect to the internet while keeping your AX system where it is, you can: 

* use a long Ethernet cable, plugged in directly from your building's router. (Only an option if your building has internet.)
* set up your smartphone as a hotspot. Instructions can be found on the [[Network_setup_AX|Network Setup]] page or by watching the [https://ezbells.com/ans0 Connect your AX to the Internet] video.

==== Temporarily Move System ====
Another option is to temporarily move your AX bell-ringing system to a place which will provide a constant internet connection. 
# Power down your system by tapping and holding the light beside the touchscreen. Let go when it turns red. The shut down process is complete when the light is solid blue, not blinking.
# Turn the system around and take a clear picture of the back of the system to remind you how everything should be plugged in, then unplug all cables and accessories.
# Take with you the AX system, the power cord and the USB WiFi Adapter Antenna.
# Once you are at home or at a nearby location where you can access the WiFi, plug in the WiFi antenna, then plug in the power cord.
# Setup the WiFi or connect to a router with an Ethernet cord. Help can be found on the [[Network_setup_AX|Network Setup]] page or by watching the [https://ezbells.com/ans0 Connect your AX to the Internet] video.
==== Verify system is connected ====
If your system is behind in updates, you will have to call our technicians to determine if it is online. The system can be reached by the update system, yet unresponsive to remote controls and Chime.Center indications.
Call 800-344-7464 and ask for an Advanced eXperience update technician.

Deagan Electric Player Operation

2026-04-29T14:46:33Z

Rickwhite: Ordering rolls

Note: The person who has charge of the Chiming Device should also familiarize himself with the information on this page, following all instructions carefully.

== Maintenance ==
=== Every week ===
# Wind any pendulum clocks at both winding places. Check time of synchronous clocks.
# Fill oil cups on Player with clock oil (do not oil clock)
# Put one drop of oil on the player Governor Brake Shoe felt pads (unless AC motor)
# Put a very small amount of Vaseline on Gears

=== Every three months ===
# Oil Chime Actions
# Oil Motor-Generator
# Check Damper clearance - bells may be sagging on suspension
==== For DC motor ====
Not applicable for 1935+ players with AC synchronous drive motor.
# Oil small motor and clean commutator and brushes
# Check small screws on Governor Springs to see if they are tight

=== Every year ===
# Replace carbon brushes in DC motors
# Adjust relay contacts that control Dampers
# Clean all contacts and check entire electric system
# Clean player contact roller with wire brush
## Rewind and remove music roll (see below)
## Remove roller by pulling knurled knob 66 and clean with 0000 steel wool, then remove steel dust with isopropyl alcohol.

== Operation ==
=== Testing and practice ===
Always toggle off (away from you) switch labeled '''CHIMES''' (39) when testing player, unless you intend to play a piece completely through.

=== Theory of operation ===
==== Contacts and switches ====
[[File:DeaganEP2.jpg|400px|right|Deagan electric player EP2]]
When the player is in operation, the small wire contacts, which carry a very light current, make contact with the Contact Roller through the slots in the paper roll, operating relays that, in turn, operate the Chimes through heavier relays.

In addition to the Chime contacts are control contacts (either on the left side or the right side of the Chime Contacts).
;Intermediate Rewind (IR)
:If a slot in the roll occurs in this position, the roll will automatically rewind to the beginning.
:Contact IR can be rendered inoperative by switching off '''INT AUT REWIND''' (not shown in photo). Newer players do not have this switch because music rolls rarely had this slot cut in them.
;End Rewind (ER)
:Contact ER will always initiate rewind when the end of the roll is encountered during play. This cannot be inhibited.
:Rewind mode raises the tracker bar and engages the rewind drive.
;Intermediate Stop (IS)
:Contact IS will stop in the middle of the roll. Subsequent selections will be played the next time the player is triggered.
:Switch off the '''INT AUT STOP''' (40) to cause the entire roll to play for an extended concert.
;End Stop (ES)
:The slot for this contact is located at the beginning of each roll to stop the mechanism after rewind to be ready for the next concert.
:This contact cannot be inhibited.

;Automatic Trip
:Switch off the '''RELAY''' (38) to inhibit the automatic trip if you wish to change rolls.

In addition to the control contacts on the tracker bar, a large Automatic Trip Contact rides along the take-up spool. Normally the paper insulates this contact until the rewind mode reaches the very beginning of the roll. When the tapered end of the roll's apron allows the contact to conduct to the take-up spool, the trip relays will lower the tracker bar and engage the play drive mechanism. The roll will proceed in the forward direction until the ES slot is reached.

==== Play speed ====
This is not applicable to AC drive motors.

The proper speed for the player is five revolutions of the take-up spool per minute. New players use a synchronous AC motor to maintain this speed.

If your player has a DC Motor with governor, the speed will be indicated by a revolving centrifugal speed indicator. Proper speed is indicated when the two red tips are even with each other. Speed can be increased by loosening the lock screw and screwing the knurled nut to the left, so that the Felt Friction Tips are further away from the governor disc. Screwing the knurled nut to the right will decrease the speed. Make adjustments while the player is stopped and be sure to keep fingers clear of the sharp governor springs.

==== Contact adjustments ====
When the tracker bar is down, in normal playing position, the silver wire contacts should extend below the bar far enough so that as they rest on the paper they are forced away from the bottoms of the slots in which they rest. All of the ends should be even. When any become shorter through wear they can be adjusted with the small adjusting nut with the small socket wrench provided with the player (5/32). Replacement tracker wires are available from Chime Master.

==== Extending the life of the paper roll ====
When the tracker bar trips automatically at the end of rewinding, the ends of the wires will impact the apron at the same place every time. If holes begin to wear the apron at this point, cut some more of the apron on the Automatic Trip side so that the trip contact switches to play mode sooner on the apron.

=== Changing rolls ===
Turn off (away from you) '''CHIMES''' (39), and '''REMOTE/CLOCK CIRCUIT''' (41) switches when rewinding. Leave them off until the new roll is completely threaded and ready to play. Inadvertent lowering of the tracker bar to the roller will blow fuses if these switches are not off!

Also switch off '''RELAY''' (38) if you intend to rewind the roll completely to install a new roll.

Make sure the '''MOTOR''' (42) switch is ON (toward you with white dot exposed) or the player will not operate as this cuts out the motor. Use this switch to inspect the roll when the desired point is reached, or for testing relay and button operation.

Press the '''PLAY''' (43) button to energize the player, then ''briefly'' press the '''REWIND''' (37) button. The roll will rewind and unthread so all of the roll is on the rear spool. Press the '''STOP''' (44) button when rewinding is complete. Grasp the base on which the player mechanism rests and slide it towards you as far as it will go. This gives better access to the music spool which you can then readily remove by pulling out the Spool Holder (knurled knob 33 on the left rear of the player), moving the spool to the left and swiveling out the right end first.

When replacing the new roll, unwind about 12 to 15 inches of the apron then insert the spool, following the reverse process of removing the other one. Take the long wire hook that is provided with the player, insert it through the tracker to capture the apron ring and draw the paper gently out between the tracker bar and contact roller. Bring the paper around the take-up spool, hooking its ring to the hook on the take-up spool.

Turn on the '''RELAY''' switch (38) toward you and press the '''PLAY''' button (43). The tracker bar will trip to the play position and the roll will start forward. When the ES slot is reached, the player will stop before the first piece on the roll. Turn on the '''REMOTE/CLOCK CIRCUIT''' (41) for automatic operation and '''CHIMES''' (39) switches. The roll is ready to play the next concert to be triggered by the clock.

=== Ordering musical rolls ===
Music rolls for Deagan electric players are available from Chime Master. For each roll, choose six selections from the [[Deagan_tower_chime_library#Available_music|Deagan Tower Chime Library]] listings for the number of notes in your chime. Please send a photo of your player so we can be sure our records are correct for the type of roll you need.

Deagan tower chime library

2026-04-29T14:41:20Z

Rickwhite: link to player page

Chime Master offers music that has been specially arranged and performed for [[Deagan_Tower_Chime_Specifications|Deagan Tower Chimes]].
* Single Tone without dampers
* Single Tone with dampers
* Harmonic chime with dampers
* Harmonic chime with dampers and sustain pedals

Most Deagan tower chimes must be played slightly slower than other chimes, especially when it comes to repeated notes. A single note cannot generally be struck faster than 80 beats per minute. This becomes an issue for music with consecutive eighth notes, necessitating a momentary ritardando.

The smaller 10 to 15-note harmonic chimes should only be played with single tone (melody only) music.

== Available music ==
Most of our catalog is available for 10 note chimes. A ten-note Deagan tower chime spans 9 diatonic notes with one flat 7th semitone.

PDF Listing: [[Media:Library-Deagan_10_Notes.pdf|10-Note Deagan Library]]

The following selections require more than ten notes. When marked (adjusted) a note or two have been changed or transposed to avoid missing notes or narrow the required range. These selections may be deleted by the user.

=== 12 or more notes ===

== Available formats ==
Rolls for [[Deagan_Electric_Player_Operation#Operation|Deagan electric players]] are available for order. A photo of your player's tracker bar contacts showing the markings on its cover is useful so we know how many contacts it has and which side has the control contacts.

== Advanced eXperience controller ==
All music from the catalog is available and included in our [https://www.chimemaster.com/libertasax Libertas touchscreen chime controller]. Modern solid state relay panels (spark free) are available for interfacing direct to both Deagan strikers and dampers.

== Deagan Roll Player formats ==
=== ST - Single Tone ===
Deagan chimes with straight tubes have odd harmonics that will clash if more than one note is played at a time. This is the primary reason Deagan began to use dampers to mute previous notes when a new note is played. The long decay time for Deagan tower chimes was another important factor leading to the development of Deagan's tower chime dampers. Without dampers, the lower notes provided on twelve or more chimes becomes a muddy roar that obscures the melody.

=== H - Harmonic ===
Deagan chimes that are harmonically tuned were introduced in the late 1930s. Harmony arrangements are not generally available for chimes less than 16 notes. Early systems with 73-type relays would play harmony if the notes are overlapped (holding a bass tone).

=== HP - Harmonic Pedal (Piano style sustain) ===
Later (post 1940) harmonic Deagan tower chimes were supplied with 74-type relays that worked with a keyboard pedal acting like a piano's sustain pedal. Music rolls recorded by June Albright Howard have this pedal signal encoded on them. Note that with the 74-type relays the musician playing a melody without harmonization must play overlapping legato and pedal all repeated notes. Otherwise the note will die as soon as the key is released, just like a piano.
