[[File:AXSetupHome.jpg|frameless|right|600px]]<br />
Tap Settings on the home screen, then tap Customize Home on the settings menu. Add, remove and change [[Home_screen_AX|Home Screen]] buttons and their functionality with this screen.<br />
<br />
All of the home screen buttons are shown on the Customize Home screen as labeled icons with either locks or editing buttons below them.<br />
<br />
Essential home screen buttons have the locks below them and cannot be removed or edited. Customizable buttons provide both an Edit button and a trash bin below them. <br />
<br />
=== Remove items ===<br />
Remove unneeded buttons from the home menu by tapping the trash bin below them.<br />
<br />
=== Edit or Add ===<br />
Change the actions for an existing button by tapping its Edit button. <br />
<br />
There are two ways to add a new button:<br />
<br />
;Tap Button Storage<br />
: Button storage contains buttons that exist on your system that are not on your home screen. These may have previously been removed from your screen or created by other users of your system. Check boxes next to each button you want to add, then click '''Add Checked''' at the bottom of the screen.<br />
<br />
;Tap Add New to create a Home Screen button. <br />
: Tap Change Icon to see available icons for your function. Tap one of the icons then tap Select. Tap the Name field to create a unique label for your new button. Select the functionality of the button from one of the following Types.<br />
<br />
==== Select Type ====<br />
Select the type of button you want to add to the user's home screen using a pull down menu:<br />
<br />
*'''Play Specific Selection''' <br />
:This button provides a quick concert from one to four specific titles. Options on the edit screen allow you to search within categorized lists to find your selection(s).<br />
<br />
*'''Play Album'''<br />
:Play from the selected Album. Choose to play through the Album in its entirety, for a duration of a number of minutes or a number of songs.<br />
<br />
*'''Play using SmartAlmanac'''<br />
:Play denominationally and seasonally appropriate random music (as set up using the SmartAlmanac&trade;) for a duration either of a number of minutes or a number of songs.<br />
<br />
*'''Custom Toll'''<br />
:This button prompts for either the number of strikes or minutes to toll, a tempo for the toll and select a tolling bell. All settings are saved for the next usage, so you can play without entering specific parameters.<br />
<br />
*'''Suspend Schedule'''<br />
** When the schedule is '''active''', the button appears '''red''' and is labeled ''Suspend Schedule''<br />
** When the schedule is '''suspended''', the button appears '''green''' and is labeled ''Resume Schedule''<br />
:Tapping the button when it is red prompts you for an ending date and time for schedule suspension. <br />
:Tap the button when it is green to cancel the suspension timer and immediately resume scheduled ringing.<br />
<br />
*'''Keyboard screen'''<br />
:You can restore the keyboard button if it has previously been removed. <br />
<br />
*'''Remote screen'''<br />
:Restore the Remote button if it has previously been removed.<br />
<br />
=== Reorder buttons ===<br />
Tap and hold your finger on any button on the edit screen. It will detach from its location and move as you continue to move your finger around the screen to its new location. Removing your finger from the screen will exit the reordering function so you can select and move other buttons the same way.<br />
<br />
=== Exit ===<br />
Review all of your selections by scrolling to the bottom of the page. When all of the parameters are entered tap the Save button at the bottom of the screen.<br />If you exit using the home button at the top of the screen you abandon your changes.<br />
<br />
== Using Chime Center ==<br />
The instructions above for the front panel screens also work for Chime Center. If your PC has a touch screen, you can tap to move the buttons like on the front panel. Reordering the buttons with a mouse is a simple click and drag operation.<br />
<br />
==== Edit My Home Screen ====<br />
You can edit your home screen remotely using Chime Center. Click on the colored circle with your initials and select My Account and Customize Home Screen.<br />
<br />
==== Edit Home Screen for Other Users ====<br />
Administrators have the ability to edit the home screen of their Chime Center users. Navigate to [https://chime.center/ax/#/manageusers '''Settings > User'''] (you may click this link if already logged in to Chime Center). Click the edit button for the user for whom you wish to edit the home screen. On the edit screen click User Home Menu.<br />
<br />
== Remote home screen ==<br />
[[File:ChimeCenterRemote.jpg|link=Remote_AX|frameless|right|200px]]<br />
<br />
The customized home screen buttons will also appear on the smart phone [[Remote_AX|Remote app]] with the Stop and Next buttons. If they do not appear right away, you may have to [[Remote_AX#Update_your_remote|update your remote]] (not rescan the code).<br />

This foundry was originally established by Charles Singleton Bell in 1856. The C.S. Bell Co. cast steel alloy bells until 1974 in Hillsboro, Ohio.<br />
<br />
During the first year the foundry operated, C.S. Bell Company cast one thousand bells, including farm bells, church bells, fire alarm bells and factory bells. By the year 1889, the foundry was producing 20,000 bells annually. Sears and Roebuck catalog sales accounted for many of the farm bells sold. <br />
<br />
The largest bell cast was 54 inches in diameter. The bell alone weighed 2,060 pounds, With hardware and ringing apparatus included, the weight was 3,150 pounds. A bell such as this cost $375 in 1921.<br />
<br />
In recent years, Bells Novelty Casting in Anniston, Alabama was casting farm bells from the original 1800’s CS Bell Co. molds. Bells Novelty Casting closed in the spring of 2007.<br />

<br />
Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing.<br /><br />
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]<br />
== Technical description ==<br />
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules<br />
* Interface Module<br />
* Power Supply Module<br />
* Output Module(s)<br />
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs<br />
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays<br />
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control<br />
<br />
=== Module Connections and Warnings ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''<br />
<br />
There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Interface Configuration Switch ===<br />
<br />
* Panel Address<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF<br />
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON<br />
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON<br />
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON<br />
* Map Select<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON<br />
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON<br />
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON<br />
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)<br />
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet<br />
* High Baud<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF<br />
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON<br />
<br />
=== Module Address Switch ===<br />
Typical chime and carillon Striker Modules are numbered left to right as 1 through 5. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2. Only large carillons will have a module 0 (all off) to the left of 1.<br />
<br />
For non-musical controls there will typically be up to two DC Striker modules and up to two Relay modules. The Striker modules are numbered 0 (all off) and 1, and the relay modules are numbered 2 and 3. <br />
<br />
Combination Modules do not have address switches.<br />
<br />
== Installation ==<br />
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).<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== AX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (status from the panel to the controller)<br />
# STAT-<br />
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)<br />
# 12V- (data ground and interface power - NOT EARTH)<br />
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)<br />
# DATA-<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
==== AX Fiber optic cable ====<br />
<br />
Use 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.<br />
<br />
For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).<br />
<br />
=== LX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.<br />
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (not used)<br />
# STAT- (not used)<br />
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)<br />
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Lights in normal operation ===<br />
Interface module<br />
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to test]]<br />
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.<br />
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.<br />
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.<br />
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.<br />
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.<br />
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.<br />
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or<br />
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.<br />
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.<br />
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.<br />
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.<br />
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
<br />
Power module<br />
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.<br />
<br />
Output modules<br />
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.<br />
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).<br />
<br />
=== Error lights ===<br />
==== Configuration error ====<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).<br />
<br />
* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)<br />
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem<br />
<br />
==== Operational error ====<br />
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:<br />
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.<br />
** If Bit Map mode is selected, a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light sould be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.<br />
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.<br />
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes).<br />
<br />
=== Test buttons ===<br />

** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click<br />
<br />
==== Adjust output pulse time ====<br />
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.<br />
<br />
Initial pulse times available (milliseconds - Input LED blinks):<br />
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat<br />
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)<br />
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)<br />
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)<br />
:250 - five blinks<br />
:300 - six blinks<br />
:500 - seven blinks - only for Deagan strikers<br />
:600 - eight blinks - only for stubborn Deagan strikers<br />
<br />
Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width. <br />
<br />
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse<br />
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse<br />
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse<br />
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)<br />
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test<br />
** During save, Input LED blinks four times<br />
<br />
If you want to reset to default pulse times<br />
* Change the module configuration (unplug a module temporarily) and cycle power<br />
<br />
=== DC Striker Module ===<br />
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.<br />
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]<br />
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)<br />
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules<br />
* Remove the output fuses from the module<br />
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode<br />
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin<br />
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module<br />
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)<br />
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts<br />
<br />
== Repairs ==<br />
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

<br />
Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing.<br /><br />
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]<br />
== Technical description ==<br />
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules<br />
* Interface Module<br />
* Power Supply Module<br />
* Output Module(s)<br />
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs<br />
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays<br />
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control<br />
<br />
=== Module Connections and Warnings ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''<br />
<br />
There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Interface Configuration Switch ===<br />
<br />
* Panel Address<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF<br />
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON<br />
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON<br />
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON<br />
* Map Select<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON<br />
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON<br />
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON<br />
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)<br />
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet<br />
* High Baud<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF<br />
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON<br />
<br />
=== Module Address Switch ===<br />
Typical chime and carillon Striker Modules are numbered left to right as 1 through 5. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2. Only large carillons will have a module 0 (all off) to the left of 1.<br />
<br />
For non-musical controls there will typically be up to two DC Striker modules and up to two Relay modules. The Striker modules are numbered 0 (all off) and 1, and the relay modules are numbered 2 and 3. <br />
<br />
Combination Modules do not have address switches.<br />
<br />
== Installation ==<br />
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).<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== AX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (status from the panel to the controller)<br />
# STAT-<br />
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)<br />
# 12V- (data ground and interface power - NOT EARTH)<br />
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)<br />
# DATA-<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
==== AX Fiber optic cable ====<br />
<br />
Use 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.<br />
<br />
For multipanel carillon installations, only Panel 1 will have the optical interface. Parallel the 485 terminals of Panel 1 and the additional panel(s).<br />
<br />
=== LX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.<br />
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.<br />
<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (not used)<br />
# STAT- (not used)<br />
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)<br />
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Lights in normal operation ===<br />
Interface module<br />
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to test]]<br />
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.<br />
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.<br />
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.<br />
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.<br />
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.<br />
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.<br />
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or<br />
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.<br />
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.<br />
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.<br />
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.<br />
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
<br />
Power module<br />
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.<br />
<br />
Output modules<br />
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.<br />
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).<br />
<br />
=== Error lights ===<br />
==== Configuration error ====<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).<br />
<br />
* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)<br />
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem<br />
<br />
==== Operational error ====<br />
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:<br />
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.<br />
** If Bit Map mode is selected, a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light sould be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.<br />
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.<br />
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes).<br />
<br />
=== Test buttons ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
* Quick Tests<br />
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode<br />
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction<br />
*** doesn't fire output<br />
*** discards all output timing edits<br />
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse direction<br />
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire<br />
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again<br />
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)<br />
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click<br />
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click<br />
<br />
==== Adjust output pulse time ====<br />
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.<br />
<br />
Initial pulse times available (milliseconds - Input LED blinks):<br />
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat<br />

:250 - five blinks<br />
:300 - six blinks<br />
:500 - seven blinks - only for Deagan strikers<br />
:600 - eight blinks - only for stubborn Deagan strikers<br />
<br />
Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width. <br />
<br />
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse<br />
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse<br />
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse<br />
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)<br />
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test<br />
** During save, Input LED blinks four times<br />
<br />
If you want to reset to default pulse times<br />
* Change the module configuration (unplug a module temporarily) and cycle power<br />
<br />
=== DC Striker Module ===<br />
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.<br />
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]<br />

** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts<br />
<br />
== Repairs ==<br />
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

=== Equipment and locations ===<br />
Generally we provide three types of equipment to install in different areas of the facility.<br />
<br />
==== User controls ====<br />
* [[Libertas_master_clock_controller|Libertas master clock controller specification]]<br />
<br />
The control panel, sometimes referred to as a master clock, head unit, and may be an electronic carillon is usually located in a sacristy or office area. Many times to save long wiring runs, it may be installed in a balcony area near the tower. In all cases, no ladders should need to be used to access the control panel.<br />
<br />
==== Relay panels ====<br />
High current switching should be as near the bells as practical. The weather resistant relay panels are, in most cases, installed in an enclosed tower chamber below the bells. Precision intelliSwing motor control panels should be within sight of swinging bells for ease of programming.<br />
<br />
To prevent moisture from accumulating in the panels, always route conduit to the bottom of the boxes. '''NEVER''' penetrate the top surface of a relay panel.<br />
<br />

[[File:2034RelayPanels.jpg|250px|link=Bell Control Technical Data 2034|Libertas 2034 Technical Data]]<br />
<br />
==== Mechanical actuators ====<br />
Tolling hammers, clappers and swinging motors are installed on the bells themselves and are usually supplied with at least an 18 inch pigtail. Junction boxes need to be located near enough to the actuator to allow connections. Flexible conduit is helpful to allow junction boxes to be re-located during the equipment installation. Separate low current conduits should be provided for swinging motor motion feedback signals (generally 12VDC logic signals).<br />
<br />
Bells are always numbered from the largest (bell 1) to the smallest.<br />
<br />
For swinging bells, the wheel side of the bell is where the swinging motor will be installed, and a tolling hammer will always be located on the opposite side from the wheel.<br />
<br />
Stationary bells can have either outside tolling hammers or inside clappers. The electro-mechanical and physics aspects of this choice generally is made on the basis of how loud the bell is intended to ring. Gravity favors outside hammers helping the power of the striking of the bell. Gravity works against inside clappers resulting in a softer tone. Visual esthetics aside, choose clappers for musical instruments and hammers for tolling bells.<br />

<br />
Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing.<br /><br />
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]<br />
== Technical description ==<br />
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules<br />
* Interface Module<br />
* Power Supply Module<br />
* Output Module(s)<br />
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs<br />
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays<br />
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control<br />
<br />
=== Module Connections and Warnings ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''<br />
<br />
There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Interface Configuration Switch ===<br />
<br />
* Panel Address<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF<br />
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON<br />
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON<br />
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON<br />
* Map Select<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON<br />
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON<br />
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON<br />
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)<br />
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet<br />
* High Baud<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF<br />
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON<br />
<br />
=== Module Address Switch ===<br />
Typical chime and carillon Striker Modules are numbered left to right as 1 through 5. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2. Only large carillons will have a module 0 (all off) to the left of 1.<br />
<br />
For non-musical controls there will typically be up to two DC Striker modules and up to two Relay modules. The Striker modules are numbered 0 (all off) and 1, and the relay modules are numbered 2 and 3. <br />
<br />
Combination Modules do not have address switches.<br />
<br />
== Installation ==<br />
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).<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== AX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (status from the panel to the controller)<br />
# STAT-<br />
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)<br />
# 12V- (data ground and interface power - NOT EARTH)<br />
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)<br />
# DATA-<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== LX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.<br />
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.<br />
<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (not used)<br />
# STAT- (not used)<br />
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)<br />
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Lights in normal operation ===<br />
Interface module<br />
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to test]]<br />
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.<br />
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.<br />
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.<br />
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.<br />
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.<br />
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.<br />
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or<br />
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.<br />
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.<br />
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.<br />
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.<br />
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
<br />
Power module<br />
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.<br />
<br />
Output modules<br />
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.<br />
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).<br />
<br />
=== Error lights ===<br />
==== Configuration error ====<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).<br />
<br />
* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)<br />
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem<br />
<br />
==== Operational error ====<br />
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:<br />
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.<br />
** If Bit Map mode is selected, a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light sould be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.<br />
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.<br />
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes).<br />
<br />
=== Test buttons ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
* Quick Tests<br />
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode<br />
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction<br />
*** doesn't fire output<br />
*** discards all output timing edits<br />
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse direction<br />
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire<br />
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again<br />
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)<br />
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click<br />
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click<br />
<br />
==== Adjust output pulse time ====<br />
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.<br />
<br />
Initial pulse times available (milliseconds - Input LED blinks):<br />
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat<br />
:100 - two blinks - (Carillon panel 3 default)<br />
:150 - three blinks - (Carillon panel 2 default)<br />
:200 - four blinks - Default (most panels)<br />
:250 - five blinks<br />
:300 - six blinks<br />
:500 - seven blinks - only for Deagan strikers<br />
:600 - eight blinks - only for stubborn Deagan strikers<br />
<br />
Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width. <br />
<br />
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse<br />
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse<br />
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse<br />
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)<br />
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test<br />
** During save, Input LED blinks four times<br />
<br />
If you want to reset to default pulse times<br />
* Change the module configuration (unplug a module temporarily) and cycle power<br />
<br />
=== DC Striker Module ===<br />
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.<br />
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]<br />
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)<br />
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules<br />
* Remove the output fuses from the module<br />
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode<br />
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin<br />
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module<br />
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)<br />
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts<br />
<br />
== Repairs ==<br />
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

;Directional<br />
:Use the separate Zone A and Zone B level controls in the AX system to adjust levels in two directions.<br />
:Point Zone A speakers in the direction needing the loudest sound.<br />
:Point Zone B speakers in the direction you want to have lower sound (if it matters).<br />
<br />
;Long-throw horns<br />
:400W outputs for the horns are equalized to provide as flat as possible frequency response over their mid-range bandwidth.<br />
:Output A on the 1600W amplifier drives Zone A's long-throw horns (four)<br />
:Output B on the 1600W amplifier drives Zone B's long-throw horns (four)<br />
<br />
;Full-range speakers<br />
:A 2500 Watt amplifier is dedicated to the full range speakers.<br />
:Low impedance mode offers the lowest distortion and best quality sound.<br />
:Parallel outputs AB (Zone A) and CD (Zone B) provide 1250-Watts into the 4-Ohm loads (two speakers per zone).<br />
:These amplifier channels are equalized to provide a balanced response when used with the long-throw horns<br />
<br />
;Sub-woofer<br />
:Output C on the 1600W amplifier is dedicated to driving the sub-woofer.<br />
:Level is controlled by Zone A which is generally set to be the louder channel.<br />
:If stereo mode is used, larger bells are found toward the left channel which is routed to Zone A.<br />
:Often the sub-woofer is installed facing downward to disperse low frequencies in all directions.<br />
<br />
;Inside speaker<br />
:Output D on the 1600W amplifier mixes the MON1 and MON2 zones together.<br />

== Symptom ==<br />
<br />
When a random SmartAlmanac selection is supposed to play, your carillon displays<br />
<br />
Seasonal List Empty<br />
<br />
== Causes ==<br />
<br />
=== Good Friday and Holy Saturday ===<br />
If the random group number is 3 (sacred music) and this is Good Friday or Holy Saturday, and the Seasonal Option for ''OFF Good Fri/Sat'' is set to ''Yes'' then this is normal operation to inhibit music on those days.<br />
<br />
=== Random Group 9 ===<br />
If the random group number is 9 (user customizable list), then there are no selections in the list for the current SmartAlmanac season.<br />
<br />
Use the Management Suite's [[Music_librarian_MS|Music Librarian]] on a Windows PC to add selections to the current almanac season. If you wish to use the same selections as ordinary time, copy the selections from the ''Nonseasonal'' list to the current season. Save the file and upload the list to the carillon.<br />
<br />
=== None of the above ===<br />
<br />
You can reset the playlist memory without clearing any other settings. Go to the Seasonal Options menu, change any season option from NO, then back to YES (or what it was before), press the left cursor button to make a quick exit, then press the green Enter button.<br />
<br />
The display should say it is <br />
<br />
Building Playlists . . . <br />
<br />
Try playing a group 3 selection by pressing button 4 followed by the green Play button.<br />
<br />
==== Update Management Suite ====<br />
<br />
Early versions of Millennium Suite sometimes scrambled the seasonal options. Only use the current version of [[Downloads|Management Suite]] to manage your carillon system.<br />

* [[Security options setup menu|Security Options]] ('''4''') allows you to set a PIN number to unlock the front panel keypad to prevent unauthorized tampering.<br />
<br />
== Operation ==<br />
<br />
=== Remote control and function buttons ===<br />
The four remote selection buttons duplicate the buttons ''1'' through ''4'' on the front panel of the Chime Master System Unit. When the system is in the Standby mode, these four buttons allow special functions to be played. The buttons have the following factory defaults:<br />
# Swing - call to worship/Mass bell<br />
# Peal - celebration/wedding peal<br />
# Toll - funeral toll<br />
# Hymn - selection of music appropriate to the current season<br />
<br />
The red ''Stop'' button on the remote duplicates the red ''Stop'' button on the front panel. Whenever the system is playing, pressing stop will cause the selection to be interrupted. If a function with multiple selections is programmed, then the next selection in the sequence may play after the current one is canceled. To cancel all selections, press ''Stop'' at least two times.<br />
<br />
When a selection is ready to play, the green ''Play'' button duplicates the action of the ''Play'' button on the front panel. If the Jukebox concert menu is open in the Management Suite software, the playlist will begin to play when you press the remote control's ''Play'' button.<br />
<br />
To send a command from the remote transmitter to the Chime Master, simply press the appropriate button. Each time a button is pressed, it should be held for about one second. If the battery condition allows proper transmission, the green battery condition light will illuminate. <br />
<br />
The buttons can be [[Edit remote button setup menu|re-programmed]] from the factory functions. Entering zeros for the program will restore the factory settings.<br />
<br />
=== Monitor volume control ===<br />
You may adjust the inside volume level by pressing either the cursor up or cursor down button to raise or lower the volume level. <br />
<br />
=== While a selection is playing ===<br />
<br />

== Symptom ==<br />
<br />
=== Selection not found ===<br />
When a selection is supposed to play, your carillon displays<br />
<br />
Selection Not Found<br />
<br />
If enough of these errors accumulate, the system will lock up with one of two notifications:<br />
<br />
Excessive SD Card Errors<br />
Call for Service<br />
Or<br />
<br />
Excessive COM Errors<br />
Call for Service<br />
<br />
Follow the remedy below for '''SD Card Errors'''. Call 800-432-3977 for help with '''COM Errors'''.<br />
<br />
=== Seasonal list empty ===<br />
If when trying to play a random hymn, the display says the seasonal list is empty, check the issues on the [[Playlist_empty_error_message|Playlist empty error page]].<br />
<br />
== Remedy ==<br />
<br />
If the selection number is not valid, it will never be found. This will not result in a system lockup. Determine the correct selection code to use.<br />
<br />
=== Eject and reinstall SD cards ===<br />
<br />
If the selection code is valid, re-seat the SD card. On current models, the factory library is stored on an SD card on the side of the carillon as illustrated below. The user SD card with MP3 files is on the front panel. Both cards are covered by a protective panel which must be removed to access the card.<br />
<br />
[[File:SDCardRemoval.jpg]]<br />
<br />
# Locate the cover plate on the right side of the carillon.<br />
# Unscrew and remove the plate, exposing the SD card slot.<br />
# Eject the card by pressing firmly into it.<br />
# Reinsert the card back into the card slot.<br />
<br />
=== Reset the error ===<br />
<br />
# Power off the carillon<br />
# Press and continue to hold the red ''Cancel'' button while turning the power back on<br />
# The lower left of the display will briefly display the four digit selection number that couldn't be found and the number of errors<br />
# Let go of the red ''Cancel'' button<br />
<br />
==== Reset options ====<br />
<br />
Erase Schedule and <br />
Setup Memory?<br />
<br />
Answer by pressing the gray cursor down button ''No''. The system will check the integrity of the schedule and delete any night-time ringing.<br />
<br />
Clear Setup?<br />
<br />
Answer by pressing the gray cursor down button ''No''. After a few seconds, during which memory integrity check-sums are updated, the system will reboot.<br />
<br />
==== Test system functionality ====<br />
<br />
===== General selection test =====<br />
<br />
Press button ''4'' then ''Enter'' to play a random song.<br />
<br />
===== Failed selection test =====<br />
<br />
If you saw the failed selection number while the system was resetting, you can play it now to be sure that it works after ejecting and replacing the SD card.<br />
<br />
# Press ''Enter'' for the '''Main Menu'''<br />
# Use the cursor down button to find '''Play Selections''', and press ''Enter'' to select<br />
# Press ''Enter'' to edit the selection number. Enter the four digit number and press ''Enter'' twice.<br />
<br />
If the selection was found, you can press ''Enter'' again to play it. If the selection was not found, we need to determine if it is a valid selection.<br />
<br />
== If problems persist ==<br />
<br />
=== Error codes ===<br />
When powering on the system, errors in the audio file system will be displayed as a single digit code in the lower right hand corner of the Copyright display. When you call, this number may be helpful for troubleshooting.<br />
<br />
1 - Communication error<br />
2 - No card found or configuration error<br />
3 - Index missing<br />
4 - Millennium carillon with corrupted configuration<br />
5 - Mismatched index for old card version<br />
6 - Mismatched index for new card version<br />
<br />
=== Call for help ===<br />
<br />
If you continue to see these errors, call 800-432-3977 for help.<br />

The '''inSpire Audio&trade; Professional''' package provides two channel inside speakers as well as two channel outside speakers. The volume settings panel of the AX carillon allows separate settings for mono mixing or stereo outputs, as well as independent levels for each zone. For example, you can mix the internal left and right channels to Zones A and B, but set them to different levels if you need to keep a certain direction quiet.<br />
<br />
=== Audio routing ===<br />
[[File:InSpireAXProfesionalRouting.png|frameless|right|600px|class=light-bg]]<br />
<br />
;Directional<br />
:Use the separate Zone A and Zone B level controls in the [[Platinum AX]] system to adjust levels in two directions ([[Millennium AX]] carillon does not have outside directional or zoning controls).<br />
:Point Zone A speakers in the direction needing the loudest sound.<br />
:Point Zone B speakers in the direction you want to have lower sound (if it matters).<br />
:Two inside speakers can either be used as a stereo pair in one room, they can also be placed in separate rooms with independent volume settings. Select volume, stereo or mono mixing in the AX carillon Volume Settings screen.<br />
<br />
;Long-throw horns<br />
:400W outputs for the horns are equalized to provide as flat as possible frequency response over their mid-range bandwidth.<br />
:Output A on the 1600W amplifier drives Zone A's long-throw horns (four)<br />
:Output B on the 1600W amplifier drives Zone B's long-throw horns (four)<br />
<br />
;Full-range speakers<br />
:A 2500 Watt amplifier is dedicated to the full range speakers.<br />
:Low impedance mode offers the lowest distortion and best quality sound.<br />
:Parallel outputs AB (Zone A) and CD (Zone B) provide 1250-Watts into the 4-Ohm loads (two speakers per zone).<br />
:These amplifier channels are equalized to provide a balanced response when used with the long-throw horns<br />
<br />
;Sub-woofer option<br />
:Output C on the 1600W amplifier is dedicated to driving the sub-woofer.<br />
:Level is controlled by Zone A which is generally set to be the louder channel.<br />
:If stereo mode is used, larger bells are found toward the left channel which is routed to Zone A.<br />
<br />
;Inside speaker<br />
:Output C on the 1600W amplifier is for the right inside speaker (Monitor 2 - optional if no sub-woofer)<br />
:Output D on the 1600W amplifier is for the left inside speaker (Monitor 1)<br />
<br />

<div><div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[Operating manuals]] > [[:Category:Legacy_Products|Previous Generation]] > [[Using_Millennium_carillon|22 Series]]'''</div><br />
<br />
The Keyboard size/MIDI setup utilizes an automatic connection menu that listens to keys from your keyboard and automatically connects their channels and transposition to the carillon.<br />
<br />
== Opening the Menu ==<br />
<br />
Open the System Setup Menu by pressing the front panel green ''Enter'' button so that you read ''Main Menu'' on the top line of the display. <br><br />
Press the number ''3'' and the flashing lower line will read ''System Setup Menu'' then press the ''Enter'' button again. <br><br />
Press the number ''7'' and the flashing lower line will read ''Keyboard Size/MIDI'' then press the ''Enter'' button again.<br />
<br />
Something similar to the following screen will appear (the blinking cursor position is shown in bold). <br />
<br />
Keyboard/MIDI Setup<br />
Press ''9'' to continue.<br />
<br />
You may press ''9'' to continue, or press ''Cancel'' to close the menu without changes.<br />
<br />
== Setting the Keyboard ==<br />
<br />
The default setting is the Chime Master 61 note (five-octave single keyboard). The system will default to this setting if this process is not completed in 2 minutes. <br />
<br />
You must engage the organ's MIDI stops before proceeding or the bells will respond to the organ when the stops are not engaged.<br />
<br />
=== Full keyboard ===<br />
<br />
Play highest note of<br />
primary keyboard<br />
<br />
While each organ key is held down, the display will show both the note number and the MIDI channel it was transmitted on. <br />
<br />
# Depress and release the highest note on the primary keyboard (the melody keyboard for multiple keyboard consoles). Release the note.<br />
# Depress and release the lowest note on the primary keyboard.<br />
# Depress and release the highest note on the secondary keyboard (If available or repeat with the single keyboard again. Bell controls do not recognize secondary keyboards). This will play the accompaniment bell voices for Chime and Harp arrangements.<br />
# Depress and release the lowest note on the secondary keyboard (or repeat the single keyboard if unavailable).<br />
<br />
== Closing the Menu ==<br />
<br />
The menu will automatically close and launch the [[Record performance menu|Record a Performance]] menu in the rehearsal mode so you can test your keyboard response. To exit, press ''Cancel'' until the current date and time is displayed.<br />
<br />
== Also see ==<br />
<br />
* [[Chime tuning setup menu|Tuning the bells]] to your organ<br />
* Setting [[Keyboard sensitivity setup menu|touch sensitivity]] and loudness of the keyboard<br />
* Information about [[Midi|MIDI]] including how the carillon responds to different organs<br />

<br />
You may find that when you play softly, the notes are not playing loud enough. Your MIDI organ<br />
keyboard may not be touch-sensitive, and the notes play too harshly. Both cases can be adjusted<br />
for with the Touch Sensitivity menu. <br />
<br />
== Opening the Menu ==<br />
<br />
Open the System Setup Menu by pressing the front panel green ''Enter'' button so that you read ''Main Menu'' on the top line of the display.<br> <br />
Press the number ''3'' and the flashing lower line will read ''System Setup Menu'' then press the ''Enter'' button again.<br> <br />
Press the number ''6'' and the flashing lower line will read ''Keyboard Sensitivity'' then press the ''Enter'' button again.<br />
<br />
Something similar to the following screen will appear (the blinking cursor position is shown in bold). <br />
<br />
Keyboard Sensitivity<br />
Light:'''1''' Heavy:8<br />
<br />
== Navigating the Menu ==<br />
You can use the grey left and right cursors to switch between ''Light'' and ''Heavy'' Values. <br />
While either the Light or Heavy value is flashing you can use the up and down grey cursors to adjust the setting or press a valid digit from the front panel. Numbers 1 to 8 represent how hard the bell is struck with the keyboard is played lightly or heavily. <br />
<br />
== Closing the Menu ==<br />
<br />
When you are finished press the green '''Enter''' button to save your changes or press the red '''Cancel''' to discard them.<br />

<br />
Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing.<br />
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]<br />
== Technical description ==<br />
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules<br />
* Interface Module<br />
* Power Supply Module<br />
* Output Module(s)<br />
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs<br />
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays<br />
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control<br />
<br />
=== Module Connections and Warnings ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''<br />
<br />
There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Interface Configuration Switch ===<br />
<br />
* Panel Address<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF<br />
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON<br />
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON<br />
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON<br />
* Map Select<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON<br />
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON<br />
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON<br />
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)<br />
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet<br />
* High Baud<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF<br />
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON<br />
<br />
=== Module Address Switch ===<br />
Typical chime and carillon Striker Modules are numbered left to right as 1 through 5. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2. Only large carillons will have a module 0 (all off) to the left of 1.<br />
<br />
For non-musical controls there will typically be up to two DC Striker modules and up to two Relay modules. The Striker modules are numbered 0 (all off) and 1, and the relay modules are numbered 2 and 3. <br />
<br />
Combination Modules do not have address switches.<br />
<br />
== Installation ==<br />
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).<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== AX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (status from the panel to the controller)<br />
# STAT-<br />
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)<br />
# 12V- (data ground and interface power - NOT EARTH)<br />
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)<br />
# DATA-<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== LX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.<br />
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.<br />
<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (not used)<br />
# STAT- (not used)<br />
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)<br />
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Lights in normal operation ===<br />
Interface module<br />
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to test]]<br />
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.<br />
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.<br />
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.<br />
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.<br />
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.<br />
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.<br />
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or<br />
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.<br />
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.<br />
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.<br />
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.<br />
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
<br />
Power module<br />
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.<br />
<br />
Output modules<br />
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.<br />
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).<br />
<br />
=== Error lights ===<br />
==== Configuration error ====<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).<br />
<br />
* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)<br />
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem<br />
<br />
==== Operational error ====<br />
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:<br />
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.<br />
** If Bit Map mode is selected, a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light sould be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.<br />
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.<br />
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes).<br />
<br />
=== Test buttons ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
* Quick Tests<br />
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode<br />
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction<br />
*** doesn't fire output<br />
*** discards all output timing edits<br />
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse direction<br />
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire<br />
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again<br />
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)<br />
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click<br />
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click<br />
<br />
==== Adjust output pulse time ====<br />
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.<br />
<br />
Initial pulse times available (milliseconds - Input LED blinks):<br />
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat<br />
:100 - two blinks<br />
:150 - three blinks<br />
:200 - four blinks - Default<br />
:250 - five blinks<br />
:300 - six blinks<br />
:500 - seven blinks - only for Deagan strikers<br />
:600 - eight blinks - only for stubborn Deagan strikers<br />
<br />
Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width. <br />
<br />
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse<br />
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse<br />
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse<br />
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)<br />
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test<br />
** During save, Input LED blinks four times<br />
<br />
If you want to reset to default pulse times<br />
* Change the module configuration (unplug a module temporarily) and cycle power<br />
<br />
=== DC Striker Module ===<br />
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.<br />
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]<br />
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)<br />
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules<br />
* Remove the output fuses from the module<br />
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode<br />
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin<br />
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module<br />
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)<br />
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts<br />
<br />
== Repairs ==<br />
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

Interface module<br />
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to test]]<br />
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.<br />
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.<br />
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.<br />
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.<br />
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.<br />
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.<br />
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or<br />
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.<br />
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.<br />
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.<br />
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.<br />
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
<br />
Power module<br />
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.<br />
<br />
Output modules<br />
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.<br />
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).<br />
<br />
=== Error lights ===<br />
==== Configuration error ====<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).<br />
<br />
* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)<br />
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem<br />
<br />
==== Operational error ====<br />
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:<br />
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.<br />
** If Bit Map mode is selected, a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light sould be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.<br />
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.<br />
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes).<br />
<br />
=== Test buttons ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
* Quick Tests<br />
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode<br />
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction<br />
*** doesn't fire output<br />
*** discards all output timing edits<br />
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse direction<br />
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire<br />
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again<br />
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)<br />
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click<br />
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click<br />
<br />
==== Adjust output pulse time ====<br />
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.<br />
<br />
Initial pulse times available (milliseconds - Input LED blinks):<br />
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat<br />
:100 - two blinks<br />
:150 - three blinks<br />
:200 - four blinks - Default<br />
:250 - five blinks<br />
:300 - six blinks<br />
:500 - seven blinks - only for Deagan strikers<br />
:600 - eight blinks - only for stubborn Deagan strikers<br />
<br />
Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width. <br />
<br />
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse<br />
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse<br />
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse<br />
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)<br />
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test<br />
** During save, Input LED blinks four times<br />
<br />
If you want to reset to default pulse times<br />
* Change the module configuration (unplug a module temporarily) and cycle power<br />
<br />
=== DC Striker Module ===<br />
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.<br />
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]<br />
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)<br />
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules<br />
* Remove the output fuses from the module<br />
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode<br />
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin<br />
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module<br />
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)<br />
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts<br />
<br />
== Repairs ==<br />
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

<p>Daveallen: bc</p>
<hr />
<div><div style="font-size:84%">'''[http://www.ChimeMaster.com Home] > [[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] > [[Operating manuals]] > [[:Category:Legacy_Products|Previous Generation]] > [[Operate_LX_Carillon|LX Carillon]]'''</div><br />
<br />
'''Applicable models'''<br />
* LX Carillons (2021 - present)<br />
* Platinum carillons with SD Option (1997 - 2019)<br />
* Six-SS Carillons (2010 - 2020)<br />
<br />
<br />
The SD card slot option provides additional functionality to Chime Master electronic carillons. The option board the slot is mounted to contains additional memory that holds pre-recorded sound files. The slot will accept SD cards formatted on a PC (FAT32 format) to which you have copied MP3 files. These files can also be played from the carillon when named as described below.<br />
<br />
== Add your selections to the SD card ==<br />
<br />
=== Remove card from carillon ===<br />
Chime Master LX carillons have the card slots on the right side of the system. The lower microSD slot is where you will insert the User SD card with the contacts toward the rear of the unit.<br />
<br />
Six-SS and Platinum carillons have the user slot at the lower right corner of the front panel.<br />
Removing the name plate on the lower right of the front panel provides access to this slot (if installed). If a card is already in the slot, push on it to eject and then remove it. After the steps below, reinstall the card with the contacts down.<br />
<br />
==== Format additional cards ====<br />
Cards as large as 8GB have been tested to work with the system. The card should be formatted as FAT32 using your '''Windows PC'''. Insert a new card, right click, select Format, and verify that it is FAT32 and re-format if it is not.<br />
<br />
Apple Mac computers no longer support erasing cards in the FAT32 format. A Mac can add files to a card that has been formatted on a PC.<br />
<br />
Unsupported formats:<br />
* FAT<br />
* FAT16<br />
* exFAT<br />
<br />
=== Extract MP3 file from CD ===<br />
There are many free solutions that can be downloaded from the internet. We have had success using a Windows program called CDex (CD extraction). This can be downloaded from the [http://cdex.mu/download CDex website].<br />
<br />
==== CDex settings ====<br />
The CDex program will create directories in your Music folder for the extracted files. Make the following settings changes so that you can name the files as you extract them:<br />
<br />
*Remove the track number from filename:<br />
options > settings > Directoies & files<br />
delete %7- from Filename Format<br />
<br />
*Set encoding parameters (in this order, not from top to bottom of screen)<br />
options > settings > Encoders<br />
select Lame MP3 Encoder<br />
Quality = Very High Quality<br />
VBR Method = Disabled<br />
Bitrate Min = 128 kbps<br />
Mode = Mono<br />
<br />
===== Mono vs. Stereo and Filtering =====<br />
The MP3 file’s left channel goes to the outside speakers and the right channel plays inside. If the file is to play both inside and outside, create a mono file. Because the data rate is constant, a mono (single channel) file will encode with higher sound quality than a two channel file.<br />
<br />
To prevent music with significant low frequency content (modern pop music or pipe organ selections) from damaging the outside horns, we recommend that you prepare full range music files so that all of the audio is on the right channel, so that it plays inside only.<br />
<br />
Mixing to mono can be done with CDex. For Mixing and muting one channel or the other, you need to use a digital audio workstation (DAW) program such as [http://www.audacityteam.org/ Audacity]. For best results, extract the tracks in CDex as WAV files, edit/mix the channels in Audacity, then export the track using an MP3 plugin (also available for download [http://www.audacityteam.org/download/windows/ here]).<br />
<br />
You can also use the DAW editor to filter frequencies below 300 Hz that are potentially damaging to outside horn speakers.<br />
<br />
==== CDex operation ====<br />
#Insert audio CD into the drive on your PC<br />
#Edit the Titles column for each track to start with a four digit number between 6000 and 6495<br />
#Select the tracks you want to encode into MP3 files (ctrl-A to select all)<br />
#Press F9 to extract the files<br />
#Eject the disc and repeat for additional discs<br />
<br />
=== MP3 file naming requirements ===<br />
Copy the desired MP3 files to the card, and then rename the files so that they have numeric filenames from 6000-6499. Make sure each 6000 number used is unique on the card. The characters after the hyphen will be ignored by the carillon system. The 6000 number can be used for any four digit selection code in the automatic or manual modes.<br />
Example: original filename is birdsinging.mp3<br />
Rename the file to 6234-birdsinging.mp3<br />
<br />
=== Copy MP3 file to SD card ===<br />
<br />
CDex extracts CD files to your Music folder. Insert the SD card from the carillon into your PC's cardslot (or external adapter). Open the folder for the card and drag the files from your Music folder onto the memory card.<br />
<br />
Before you remove the card from the computer, select it in File Explorer and Eject it so that the data files are all closed properly.<br />
<br />
=== Install the card ===<br />
If a card is already in the slot, push on it to eject and remove it. Install the card with the contacts toward the bottom (or rear of the LX) of the carillon.<br />
<br />
=== Playing selections ===<br />
<br />
Use the Play Selections menu to test the selections you have copied. Whenever a four digit selection code is flashing, you can simply enter the 6000 number for the selection you want to play from the SD card.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
<br />
Properly formatted MP3 files are required. You can check your file in Windows by right clicking it and selecting Properties. On the Details tab, scroll down and check the file's bit rate under the Audio heading. <br />
<br />
Recommended encoding values:<br />
Sample Rate: 44100<br />
Bit Depth: 16 bit<br />
Bit Rate: 128 kbps<br />
<br />
=== Errors while playing ===<br />
;Q-Com Error<br />
:FAT32 formatted cards should have only a single Healthy Primary Partition. This can be checked in Computer Management > Disk Management. A brand new card will have only one partition. <br />
<br />
:If your card has been used to install operating systems or software it will have a Boot or EFI System partition. Deleting this partition requires executing power shell commands that can damage your computer, so we do not provide instructions. It is best to use a new card to play your files.<br />

<br />
Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing.<br />
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]<br />
== Technical description ==<br />
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules<br />
* Interface Module<br />
* Power Supply Module<br />
* Output Module(s)<br />
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs<br />
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays<br />
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control<br />
<br />
=== Module Connections and Warnings ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''<br />
<br />
There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Interface Configuration Switch ===<br />
<br />
* Panel Address<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF<br />
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON<br />
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON<br />
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON<br />
* Map Select<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON<br />
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON<br />
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON<br />
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)<br />
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet<br />
* High Baud<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF<br />
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON<br />
<br />
=== Module Address Switch ===<br />
Typical chime and carillon Striker Modules are numbered left to right as 1 through 5. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2. Only large carillons will have a module 0 (all off) to the left of 1.<br />
<br />
For non-musical controls there will typically be up to two DC Striker modules and up to two Relay modules. The Striker modules are numbered 0 (all off) and 1, and the relay modules are numbered 2 and 3. <br />
<br />
Combination Modules do not have address switches.<br />
<br />
== Installation ==<br />
To prevent moisture from accumulating in the panels, always route conduit to the bottom of the boxes. '''NEVER''' penetrate the top surface of a relay panel.<br />
<br />
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).<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== AX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (status from the panel to the controller)<br />
# STAT-<br />
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)<br />
# 12V- (data ground and interface power - NOT EARTH)<br />
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)<br />
# DATA-<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== LX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.<br />
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.<br />
<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (not used)<br />
# STAT- (not used)<br />
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)<br />
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Lights in normal operation ===<br />
Interface module<br />
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to test]]<br />
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.<br />
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.<br />
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.<br />
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.<br />
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.<br />
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.<br />
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or<br />
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.<br />
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.<br />
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.<br />
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.<br />
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
<br />
Power module<br />
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.<br />
<br />
Output modules<br />
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.<br />
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).<br />
<br />
=== Error lights ===<br />
==== Configuration error ====<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).<br />
<br />
* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)<br />
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem<br />
<br />
==== Operational error ====<br />
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:<br />
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.<br />
** If Bit Map mode is selected, a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light sould be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.<br />
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.<br />
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes).<br />
<br />
=== Test buttons ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
* Quick Tests<br />
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode<br />
*** To make relay outputs stay on (for swinging motor testing) until pressing the Repeat button, switch ''Status AX'' configuration ON before entering Test mode. Turn it back off after tests are finsihed.<br />
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction<br />
*** doesn't fire output<br />
*** discards all output timing edits<br />
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse direction<br />
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire<br />
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again<br />
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)<br />
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click<br />
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click<br />
<br />
==== Adjust output pulse time ====<br />
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.<br />
<br />
Initial pulse times available (milliseconds - Input LED blinks):<br />
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat<br />
:100 - two blinks<br />
:150 - three blinks<br />
:200 - four blinks - Default<br />
:250 - five blinks<br />
:300 - six blinks<br />
:500 - seven blinks - only for Deagan strikers<br />
:600 - eight blinks - only for stubborn Deagan strikers<br />
<br />
Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width. <br />
<br />
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse<br />
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse<br />
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse<br />
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)<br />
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test<br />
** During save, Input LED blinks four times<br />
<br />
If you want to reset to default pulse times<br />
* Change the module configuration (unplug a module temporarily) and cycle power<br />
<br />
=== DC Striker Module ===<br />
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.<br />
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]<br />
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)<br />
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules<br />
* Remove the output fuses from the module<br />
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode<br />
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin<br />
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module<br />
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)<br />
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts<br />
<br />
== Repairs ==<br />
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules<br />
* Remove the output fuses from the module<br />
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode<br />
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin<br />
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module<br />
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)<br />
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts<br />
<br />
== Repairs ==<br />
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

<br />
=== Equipment and locations ===<br />
Generally we provide three types of equipment to install in different areas of the facility.<br />
<br />
==== User controls ====<br />
* [[Libertas_master_clock_controller|Libertas master clock controller specification]]<br />
<br />
The control panel, sometimes referred to as a master clock, head unit, and may be an electronic carillon is usually located in a sacristy or office area. Many times to save long wiring runs, it may be installed in a balcony area near the tower. In all cases, no ladders should need to be used to access the control panel.<br />
<br />
==== Relay panels ====<br />
High current switching should be as near the bells as practical. The weather resistant relay panels are, in most cases, installed in an enclosed tower chamber below the bells. Precision intelliSwing motor control panels should be within sight of swinging bells for ease of programming.<br />
<br />
To prevent moisture from accumulating in the panels, always route conduit to the bottom of the boxes. '''NEVER''' penetrate the top surface of a relay panel.<br />
<br />

[[File:3700T8.jpg|250px|link=Bell Control Technical Data 3700|Bell Control Technical Data 3700]]<br />
<br />
==== Mechanical actuators ====<br />
Tolling hammers, clappers and swinging motors are installed on the bells themselves and are usually supplied with at least an 18 inch pigtail. Junction boxes need to be located near enough to the actuator to allow connections. Flexible conduit is helpful to allow junction boxes to be re-located during the equipment installation. Separate low current conduits should be provided for swinging motor motion feedback signals (generally 12VDC logic signals).<br />
<br />
Bells are always numbered from the largest (bell 1) to the smallest.<br />
<br />
For swinging bells, the wheel side of the bell is where the swinging motor will be installed, and a tolling hammer will always be located on the opposite side from the wheel.<br />
<br />
Stationary bells can have either outside tolling hammers or inside clappers. The electro-mechanical and physics aspects of this choice generally is made on the basis of how loud the bell is intended to ring. Gravity favors outside hammers helping the power of the striking of the bell. Gravity works against inside clappers resulting in a softer tone. Visual esthetics aside, choose clappers for musical instruments and hammers for tolling bells.<br />

[[Media:RoofMountBracket.pdf|Roof mount bracket installation (PDF download)]]<br />
[[File:Bracket-4horn.png|frameless|right]]<br />
== Assemble the frame ==<br />
<br />
Attach the legs to the square frame using supplied 5/16 by 3/4 long bolts. Put the bolt heads on the inside of the bracket to make it possible to install the nuts with split washers on the outside with a socket wrench. '''Orient''' the legs so that the bottom feet mounting holes are on two ''opposite'' sides of the frame. Tighten all eight bolts at the top of the frame.<br />
<br />
Attach the feet to the bottoms of the legs using supplied 5/16 by 3/4 long bolts, split washers and nuts. Leave these bolts only snug so that the feet can swivel to the roof pitch.<br />
<br />
== Mount the frame ==<br />
<br />
Put the frame over the roof peak and try to locate the two upwind feet over a roof truss. Place the supplied rectangular sealing strips under each foot. Drill a 9/64 inch pilot hole for all eight lag bolts that will hold the bracket to the roof. Use the supplied 5/16 by 2 lag bolts and flat washers to secure the frame.<br />
<br />
== Attach the speaker horns ==<br />
<br />
Pre-assemble the drivers and wire before hoisting the speakers to the roof. Secure each speaker on a top corner of the bracket with two 5/16 x 1 bolts and large flat washers (on top) and split washers and nuts on the bottom of the frame.<br />
<br />
=== Eight speakers ===<br />
<br />
Up to eight speakers can be mounted on the frame if the leg lengths are sufficient to allow four additional speakers to be slung under the frame top.<br />

=== Riser diagrams ===<br />
A riser diagram shows the power supply, conduits and conductors required to be installed by an electrician in preparation for the installation of a bell ringing system. Electrical panels supplied by Chime Master are shown for location reference, but dimensions and final hookup may vary from the riser drawing.<br />
<br />
Three phase power and 208VAC supply should be noted as early in the project as possible. Swinging motor systems should use three phase when available. Single phase motors are designed to be used at 230 VAC.<br />

# Secure speakers according to instructions enclosed in packing using supplied hardware as required.<br />
# Connect supplied pigtails to horn drivers before screwing the drivers into the horns. Note that low impedance drivers are normally supplied with two terminal screws. Do not move the screws to non-functioning 70V terminals.<br />
# Bring the pigtails from each horn to the supplied junction box. Bring the mid-range channel supply cable from the amplifier (Channels A and B outputs are paralleled with the supplied jumpers) into the junction box. Connect all five of the white wires together, then all of the black wires together using two of the larger brass set-screw wire-nuts and covers. Orient the threaded part of the brass insert toward the wire insulation. Tighten the set-screw and trim excess wire from the end of the insert before screwing on the wire-nut cover.<br />
# Remove the 70V Jumper on from the terminal on the full-range horn.<br />
# Connect the full-range channel supply cable from the amplifier (Channel C) to the full-range horn. Connect the white wire to the COM terminal, and the black wire to the 4 Ohm voice coil terminal.<br />

Connect carillon to PA
2023-10-05T16:08:06Z

<br />
Connecting the output of Chime Master carillons to PA systems for inside sound is easy once you determine the type of input you are connecting to. Dealing with impedance mismatches, ground loops, and running cables a long distance, are addressed here. <br><br />
The best way to connect any instrument to a PA system with a professional mixing desk with balanced inputs is with a "direct box." <br><br />
Running long wires to connect to a PA with unbalanced inputs is generally a bad idea, but you may achieve acceptable results by following the balanced cable approach.<br />
<br />
== Carillon Outputs ==<br />
<br />
=== AX Series ===<br />
Advanced eXpericence carillons provide balanced line level audio outputs on 3.5mm Euro-plugs. <br />
<br />
If you are connecting to an amplifier with an unbalanced RCA or quarter inch jack, connect the internal coaxial wire to the positive terminal and the shield to both the Ground and negative terminals.<br />
<br />
'''Platinum'''<br />
Monitor 1 outputs the same signal as goes to the left front panel speaker. Monitor 2 outputs the right front speaker signal. These monitor outputs are not affected by the speaker level/mute icon at the top of the screen. The output levels are set in Settings > Volume and can mix the left and right channels together for each output or maintain stereo separation.<br />
<br />
'''Millennium and Bravo'''<br />
OUT A is the monitor output for these systems. OUT B is for the outside audio system.<br />
<br />
=== Rack Mount Millennium, Platinum and Six-SS ===<br />
<br />
Both quarter inch jacks on these systems are tip-sleeve unbalanced outputs. The reason the inside jack is unbalanced is because it drives the internal monitor speaker amplifier when there isn't another plug in it. Plugging a cable into the Inside jack disables the front panel speaker. Always use a direct box or pair of matching transformers to extend the connections to a PA with these systems.<br />
<br />

Balanced audio output is available on pins 2 and 3 of the DIN-4 jack (the pins closest to the notch). Unless otherwise labeled, this output has a high-pass filter because it typically is used to drive a remotely located tower amplifier. It also is not affected by the carillon's monitor level controls.<br />
<br />
Pin 1 has a switched 12V through a 220 ohm resistor to enable power to the amplifier and Pin 4 has a 220 ohm resistor to ground (for enable current only). We provide cables to connect these DIN plugs to QSC amplifiers with 15-pin D connectors for balanced audio and power switching. Junction boxes with 4-pin DIN male and female jacks and screw connectors can be used to extend a 2-pair shielded cable to remote amplifier locations.<br />
<br />
Pinout as viewed from the rear of the carillon chassis:<br><br />
1 - 12VDC positive switched (right top pin)<br><br />
2 - Audio Hot (right bottom pin)<br><br />
3 - Audio Cold (left bottom pin)<br><br />
4 - Power supply GROUND (left top pin)<br><br />
Barrel - Chassis GROUND<br><br />
<br />
=== Rack Mount Six-CD and EZ-Bells ===<br />
<br />
These systems have a high impedance pseudo-balanced output with a 330 ohm resistor from the op-amp output to the Inside jack tip, another 330 ohm resistor from ground to the ring, and the sleeve is grounded to the chassis. It is recommended that a balanced line input from the mixer be tied only to the tip and ring, leaving the shield connected only to the mixer input ground.<br />
<br />
The Tower output jack is fully balanced on these systems.<br />
<br />
=== Oak and Plexiglass Millennium and Six-CD ===<br />
<br />
The Six-CD systems had a 4.7k resistor isolating the tip of the Inside jack from the Tower jack. Always use matching transformers (or direct box) when connecting to these systems beyond 25 feet.<br />
<br />
== Mixer Connections ==<br />
<br />
=== Close Unbalanced Line Input ===<br />
<br />
A line input on a mixer that is located next to the carillon system can be connected with a quarter inch unbalanced cable. In some instances the mixer will have an RCA type input jack. For this reason, when a customer requests we include a cable for connection to their PA system, we supply a cable with a quarter inch plug on one end, and an RCA plug on the other end, with an RCA to quarter inch adapter.<br />
<br />
=== Distant Unbalanced Line Input ===<br />
<br />
When an audio signal is sent any distance beyond 25 feet, it should be connected through a balanced cable. The PA outputs of the Chime Master carillon are not balanced. An RCA input on a PA is always unbalanced. Quarter inch input jacks on a PA may be balanced or unbalanced. Use transformer adapters at each end of the balanced cable ([http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/2condshldm 2-conductor plus shield] with standard XLR to XLR microphone cable of the required length) as follows.<br />
<br />
Plug the [http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/CPP101 quarter inch to quarter inch cable] from the PA output of the Chime Master to a [http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MIT129 Hosa MIT-129] (or similar Radio Shack 274-017) transformer adapter, and plug the female XLR plug from the balanced cable into the output of the adapter. The other end of the balanced cable has a male XLR plug that goes into a [http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MIT435 Hosa MIT-435] (Radio Shack 274-016) that has a male quarter inch plug on it. Plug the MIT-435 into the quarter inch jack on the PA. For a PA with an RCA&nbsp;input, use [http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/GPR104 Hosa GPR-104] adapter with a female quarter inch jack to a male RCA plug.<br />
<br />
Note that these adapters do not attenuate the line level signal enough to feed a microphone input. These adapters are available for around $20 each.<br />
<br />
Parts can be obtained at a local music store or online from Sweetwater.com<br />
<br />
==== Hum ====<br />
<br />
The primary cause of hum is a ground loop. The audio equipment is grounded at its outlet, the carillon at its outlet, then if the shield of the cable is connected at both ends, current starts flowing through it, causing hum. For best results, always connect the shield at the input (mixer board) end.<br />
<br />
Make sure that inline matching transformer cables do not come into contact with the chassis of equipment or to electrical boxes and conduits.<br />
<br />
=== Balanced Microphone Input ===<br />
<br />
Sometimes the mixer will only have a microphone input using an XLR connector. In this case, a [http://www.sweetwater.com/c957--Direct_Boxes direct box] with a line input is recommended. The box takes care of converting unbalanced to balanced and high to low impedance. It will also reduce the gain of the signal (through the Line input jack) so it doesn't overload the microphone preamp in the mixer. Place the direct box next to the Chime Master carillon and run a balanced cable (two conductors and shield) the distance to the PA mixer.<br />
<br />
Decent direct boxes are available for less than $50. Always choose a passive transformer-isolated direct box that does not require batteries or phantom power. The input jack should be plastic and isolated from the chassis ground.<br />

<br />
Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing.<br />
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]<br />
== Technical description ==<br />
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules<br />
* Interface Module<br />
* Power Supply Module<br />
* Output Module(s)<br />
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs<br />
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays<br />
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control<br />
<br />
=== Module Connections and Warnings ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''<br />
<br />
There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Interface Configuration Switch ===<br />
<br />
* Panel Address<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF<br />
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON<br />
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON<br />
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON<br />
* Map Select<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON<br />
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON<br />
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON<br />
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)<br />
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet<br />
* High Baud<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF<br />
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON<br />
<br />
=== Module Address Switch ===<br />
Typical chime and carillon Striker Modules are numbered left to right as 1 through 5. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2. Only large carillons will have a module 0 (all off) to the left of 1.<br />
<br />
For non-musical controls there will typically be up to two DC Striker modules and up to two Relay modules. The Striker modules are numbered 0 (all off) and 1, and the relay modules are numbered 2 and 3. <br />
<br />
Combination Modules do not have address switches.<br />
<br />
== Installation ==<br />
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).<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== AX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (status from the panel to the controller)<br />
# STAT-<br />
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)<br />
# 12V- (data ground and interface power - NOT EARTH)<br />
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)<br />
# DATA-<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== LX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.<br />
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.<br />
<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (not used)<br />
# STAT- (not used)<br />
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)<br />
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Lights in normal operation ===<br />
Interface module<br />
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to test]]<br />
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.<br />
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.<br />
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.<br />
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.<br />
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.<br />
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.<br />
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or<br />
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.<br />
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.<br />
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.<br />
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.<br />
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
<br />
Power module<br />
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.<br />
<br />
Output modules<br />
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.<br />
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).<br />
<br />
=== Error lights ===<br />
==== Configuration error ====<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).<br />
<br />
* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)<br />
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem<br />
<br />
==== Operational error ====<br />
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:<br />
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.<br />
** If Bit Map mode is selected, a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light sould be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.<br />
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.<br />
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes).<br />
<br />
=== Test buttons ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
* Quick Tests<br />
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode<br />
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction<br />
*** doesn't fire output<br />
*** discards all output timing edits<br />
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse direction<br />
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire<br />
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again<br />
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)<br />
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click<br />
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click<br />
<br />
==== Adjust output pulse time ====<br />
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.<br />
<br />
Initial pulse times available (milliseconds - Input LED blinks):<br />
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat<br />
:100 - two blinks<br />
:150 - three blinks<br />
:200 - four blinks - Default<br />
:250 - five blinks<br />
:300 - six blinks<br />
:500 - seven blinks - only for Deagan strikers<br />
:600 - eight blinks - only for stubborn Deagan strikers<br />
<br />
Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width. <br />
<br />
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse<br />
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse<br />
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse<br />
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)<br />
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test<br />
** During save, Input LED blinks four times<br />
<br />
If you want to reset to default pulse times<br />
* Change the module configuration (unplug a module temporarily) and cycle power<br />
<br />
=== DC Striker Module ===<br />
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.<br />
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]<br />
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)<br />
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules<br />
* Remove the output fuses from the module<br />
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode<br />
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin<br />
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module<br />
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)<br />
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts<br />
<br />
== Repairs ==<br />
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

<br />
== Connections ==<br />
<br />
=== AC power input ===<br />
All striker relay panels use single phase power. Clappers and hammers operate between 208 and 240 VAC. Swinging bell motor systems come in three phase and single phase versions.<br />
<br />
Connect a supply of at least 20A to panels with one to three bells. Add 5A per bell that could ring simultaneously (generally no more than six will ring at the same time). Input terminals L1 and L2 accept up to 10 AWG.<br />
<br />
=== Hammer and clapper outputs ===<br />
The striker may be a tolling hammer mounted on the opposite side of the bell from the wheel. These diagrams detail the internal hookup of the relay panel only. Consult the appropriate [[Installation_documentation#Riser_diagrams|riser diagram]] for conduit and power requirements.<br />
<br />
* [[Media:2034T1220W2.pdf|Single output bell controller hookup (PDF download)]] This relay is in a plastic box and is not weather resistant.<br />
* [[Media:2034T3220W2.pdf|Three output bell controller hookup (PDF download)]] NEMA relay panel for three stationary bells.<br />
* [[Media:2034T4220W2.pdf|Four output bell controller hookup (PDF download)]] NEMA relay panel for four stationary bells.<br />
<br />
=== Swinging motor outputs ===<br />
Low current relays are used to enable swinging motor systems that use either solid state or electo-mechanical contactors. Multiple relays switch a Common line for multiple bell outputs. The outputs will be labeled M1, M2 (and so on from the largest to smaller bells). These relay outputs connect to <br />
<br />
For 2052 swinging bell motors with solid state controls, connect '''M''' to each motor's '''K''' lead (a purple wire). For intelliSwing Precision systems in a separate wall mounted cabinet, connect the Mn output to the Sn switch input. For legacy motors, you need to determine which wire goes to the contactor and reversing switches.<br />
<br />
Generally, connect the '''C''' Common terminal (fused at 2A) in the Libertas relay panel to L1 for most cases. If the motor doesn't run, move the jumper to L2 as power leads in existing motors may be reversed. For intelliSwing Precision motor control cabinets, there will either be a '''C''' input near the '''S''' input, or you can use the '''L1-out''' on the logic circuit breaker in the cabinet.<br />
<br />
=== Data Cable ===<br />
A twisted pair data cable is required and typically we use a minimum of CAT5 with RJ45 terminations. The pinout of the terminations and wire colors is the standard B style pin out. The following colors appear top to bottom when cable exits the housing to the left and the clip is away from you:<br />
[[File:CAT5-Termination.png|400px|thumb|right|CAT5 RJ45 Termination]]<br />
1 Orange/White - 12VDC negative<br />
2 Orange solid - 12VDC negative<br />
3 Green/White - Data A (RS485)<br />
4 Blue solid - Status B (RS485)<br />
5 Blue/White - Status A (RS485)<br />
6 Green solid - Data B (RS485)<br />
7 Brown/White - 12VDC positive<br />
8 Brown solid - 12VDC positive<br />
<br />
'''Crimping Procedure'''<br />
# Cut cable to length<br />
# Strip 1-1/2" of outer jacket from cable without nicking conductors.<br />
# Pull the jacket back from the end as much as possible.<br />
# Fan-out conductor pairs, orange top, green, blue brown bottom.<br />
# Untwist green, arrange green/white above blue, solid green below.<br />
# Untwist blue, orient solid above blue/white<br />
# Untwist orange and brown pairs, keep solids below the striped.<br />
# Flatten the fan and bring together keeping the order shown above.<br />
# Use scissors to cut the conductors about 3/4" from jacket.<br />
# Double check wire order and insert conductors fully into the RJ45 connector as shown.<br />
# Crimp the connector using an RJ45 crimping tool.<br />
# Inspect the crimp. The wires should be fully inserted and their ends visible at the end of the connector. The gold pins should be recessed in the slots (not protruding above the plastic).<br />
<br />
== Relay panel technical information ==<br />
=== Wiring color codes ===<br />
All primary wiring shall be 16 AWG or greater, stranded with 600V insulation in the following colors:<br />
* Earth protective ground - Green<br />
* Neutral (not generally required) - White<br />
* L1 - Black<br />
* L2 - Red<br />
* L3 - Blue (when three phase power is used for motors)<br />
* T1, T2, etc. DC striker outputs (polarity not important) - Yellow<br />
* M1, M2, etc. Motor contactor outputs (high voltage, low current) - Violet<br />
* COM - may be jumpered to L1 at the factory - Black<br />
<br />
Secondary low voltage control wiring shall be 18 AWG with 300V insulation in the following colors:<br />
* Negative DC - Black<br />
* Positive DC control - Red<br />
<br />
=== Lights and test buttons ===<br />
At the top of the relay panel is a square board with three buttons with four lights at the top edge.<br />
<br />
The four lights are labeled:<br />
Power - Data - Fault - Status<br />
The buttons may be labeled:<br />
Reset - Test - Step<br />
<br />
At the bottom of this board, and sometimes installed on an auxiliary board attached with a ribbon cable, are one inch square output modules mounted vertically (up to four outputs on the main board, up to twelve outputs on the auxiliary board). For tolling outputs, there will be two timer adjustment controls. For motorized ringers there will not be adjustments. At the top of these boards is a green light that indicates the output is on. At the bottom of the board is a red light that indicates the output is driving a short circuit.<br />
<br />
=== Test mode ===<br />
Hold the Test button (under the Data light) while momentarily clicking the Reset button (under the Power light). After the Fault light blinks you can let go of the Test button. The Data light should remain lit to indicate the panel is in the self-test mode.<br />
<br />
Press the Step button to sequence through the outputs. The tolling outputs will ring first then any motorized outputs will follow. Note that after ringing the Motorized outputs, the toll outputs may locked out (hammer protect mode). If you need to test the tollers again, repeat the procedure above to reset the test mode (after the bells have ceased to swing).<br />
<br />
To repeat an output that you have stepped to, press the Test button to repeat it. This is useful for testing motorized outputs that time out after a second or so.<br />
<br />
==== Exit test mode ====<br />
The panel will reset to the standby mode in a couple of minutes. For immediate reset, press the Reset button so that the Data light goes out.<br />
<br />
=== Pulse Adjustments ===<br />
Each timer board has two adjustment potentiometers. The top adjustment sets the length of the pulse and the bottom adjustment sets the maximum repeat rate. For both cases, clockwise adjustments shorten the pulse and allows smaller bells to repeat faster.<br />
<br />
If the lower potentiometer is adjusted clockwise more than the upper adjustment, the ON pulse will be shortened to allow faster repeats.<br />
<br />
==== Pulse setting procedure for large tolling bells ====<br />
#Set the top adjustment fully clockwise <br />
#Set the bottom adjustment fully counter-clockwise <br />
#Turn top adjustment counterclockwise until the ringing does not get any louder <br />
<br />
==== Pulse setting procedure for small chime/carillon bells ====<br />
#Set both adjustments fully clockwise (short pulse) <br />
#Turn top adjustment counterclockwise until the ringing does not get any louder <br />
#If the top adjustment is fully counterclockwise and you can get the bell to ring louder by turning the bottom adjustment farther then continue adjusting the bottom adjustment until the desired performance is obtained.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Fuse blows ===<br />
==== Test Open Output ====<br />
Disconnect output wires from PCB for the bell that blows fuse. If fuse still blows without anything connected, the rectifier is probably at fault. Most panels have socketed rectifiers that can be replaced. Be sure to align the angled corner (positive lead) correctly when inserting the replacement.<br />
==== Test Alternate Output ====<br />
If the output in question does not blow the fuse when its output is not connected, try connecting the bell to another output (lower numbered output for high current fuse). If the other output fuse blows there is a problem with the striker or wiring.<br />

<hr />
<div>Libertas 3700 series modular relay and high current switching panels provide consistent ringing with accurate pulse timing.<br />
[[File:3700T8.jpg|400px]]<br />
== Technical description ==<br />
From left to right, each panel includes the following modules<br />
* Interface Module<br />
* Power Supply Module<br />
* Output Module(s)<br />
** DC Striker T4 - four DC striker outputs<br />
** Combination Output - one DC striker and three motor control dry contact relays<br />
** Relay Module M4 - four dry contact relays, typically used for motor control<br />
<br />
=== Module Connections and Warnings ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''CAUTION - HIGH VOLTAGE'''<br />
<br />
There are no user or field serviceable parts on the modules. Send suspect or faulty modules to Chime Master for repair or replacement.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
'''SAFE CONFIGURATION'''<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Interface Configuration Switch ===<br />
<br />
* Panel Address<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 1, 2, 3 - OFF<br />
** First panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 1 - ON<br />
** Second panel for Carillons: 1, 3 - OFF, 2 - ON<br />
** Third panel for Carillons: 2, 3 - OFF; 3 - ON<br />
* Map Select<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 5, 6 - OFF; 4 ON<br />
** Chimes with missing semitones: 4, 6 - OFF; 5 ON<br />
** Carillons: 4, 5 - OFF; 6 ON<br />
** Custom: 4, 5 - ON; 6 - OFF (sticker on Interface Module has an Fnnnn number)<br />
* AX Mode: 7 - not implemented yet<br />
* High Baud<br />
** Non-musical bell controls: 8 - OFF<br />
** Chime and Carillons: 8 - ON<br />
<br />
=== Module Address Switch ===<br />
Typical chime and carillon Striker Modules are numbered left to right as 1 through 5. Set module 4 as 3+1, module 5 as 3+2. Only large carillons will have a module 0 (all off) to the left of 1.<br />
<br />
For non-musical controls there will typically be up to two DC Striker modules and up to two Relay modules. The Striker modules are numbered 0 (all off) and 1, and the relay modules are numbered 2 and 3. <br />
<br />
Combination Modules do not have address switches.<br />
<br />
== Installation ==<br />
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).<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== AX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Four wires (two twisted pairs) are enough unless AX STATUS mode is used (not implemented at the time of this writing).<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (status from the panel to the controller)<br />
# STAT-<br />
# 12V+ (used to power the isolated inteface in the controller)<br />
# 12V- (data ground and interface power - NOT EARTH)<br />
# DATA+ (control data from the controller)<br />
# DATA-<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== LX Systems ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
* Use additional spare wires in the data cable to carry more current.<br />
* Plug a booster power suppply into the 12VDC input of the control panel.<br />
<br />
<br />
# STAT+ (not used)<br />
# STAT- (not used)<br />
# 12V+ (connect to P+ terminal 4 on LX controller)<br />
# 12V- (connect to P- terminal 5 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA+ (connect to T+ terminal 1 on LX controller)<br />
# DATA- (connect to T- terminal 2 on LX controller)<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Lights in normal operation ===<br />
Interface module<br />
[[File:BC-CIF-3703-TestButton.png|400px|thumb|right|Long press to test]]<br />
* ACTIVE: indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicated from logic before drive transistor.<br />
** Active only on when outputs are active. Resets at end of concert.<br />
* POWER: 12VDC Power supply from Power Supply Module is on and 5V regulator is OK.<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* TEST MODE: indicates self test is active. Inputs are ignored.<br />
* SIGNAL: blinks with input data.<br />
** Should never be constantly lit except dim glow in Bit Map mode.<br />
** Blinks brighter when receiving low Baud signal.<br />
* INPUT: indicates that input data addressed to this panel, or<br />
** Steady Blink if configuration switch error.<br />
** Will not blink if incoming activation data is for this panel, but no module has been installed for it.<br />
* OUTPUT: indicates that this panel is sending status back to the controller.<br />
** Blinks brighter when set for low Baud.<br />
* 12V: DC-DC isolation converter is working - 12V available on 485 interface terminal<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
* 5V: interface regulator is working (may be damaged by surges induced to data cable)<br />
** Should be as bright as power light on Power module.<br />
<br />
Power module<br />
* Power - 12VDC Power supply is working and AC input is within 100-240VAC<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates Interface Module drive transistor is OK.<br />
<br />
Output modules<br />
* Ready - indicates that interface module has enabled the outputs (not in sleep or reset mode).<br />
* Active - indicates the high voltage relays are enabled. Indicates signal over cable is OK.<br />
* ERR - indicates improper signal received for module (if input not blinking on Interface module).<br />
<br />
=== Error lights ===<br />
==== Configuration error ====<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Correctly configured modules will result in a self test that activates outputs from left to right (in Up sequencing mode).<br />
<br />
* Two modules error lights do not come on (other modules do)<br />
** Modules at the same address must be the same module type - the modules with Err lights off are the problem<br />
<br />
==== Operational error ====<br />
If error lights occur on output modules, the following operational errors may be indicated:<br />
* All module's error light comes on and stays on.<br />
** If Bit Map mode is selected, a constant input data stream is needed. Check connections between the panel and controller. The interface module's Signal light sould be indicating presence of the input signal. Perhaps the controller has not been configured for Bit Map mode.<br />
* One module error light comes on. The error resets when the Active state comes on next time.<br />
** This indicates that the output pulse exceeded the modules maximum pulse time. Reduce the pulse time on the controller (AX or Bit Map modes).<br />
<br />
=== Test buttons ===<br />
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.<br />
<br />
* Quick Tests<br />
** Long Press Test- enters test mode from normal mode - exits test mode<br />
** Double Click Test - test reset to output 1 up direction<br />
*** doesn't fire output<br />
*** discards all output timing edits<br />
** Click Test - cancel repeat/scan modes, reverse direction<br />
** Click Step - cancel repeat/scan, go to next available output and fire<br />
** Click Repeat - cancel repeat/scan, fire current output again<br />
* Leave panel in test mode for burn in or bell adjusting (CAUTION! No Time Out)<br />
** Double Click Step - fire next, continue scan all outputs until cancel w/single click<br />
** Double Click Repeat - continue to fire current output - repeat until cancel w/single click<br />
<br />
==== Adjust output pulse time ====<br />
Does not affect motor enable outputs to intelliSwing panels, but will affect Relay modules if used to trigger striker outputs.<br />
<br />
Initial pulse times available (milliseconds - Input LED blinks):<br />
:75 - one blink - only for very small bells in chimes and carillons for faster repeat<br />
:100 - two blinks<br />
:150 - three blinks<br />
:200 - four blinks - Default<br />
:250 - five blinks<br />
:300 - six blinks<br />
:500 - seven blinks - only for Deagan strikers<br />
:600 - eight blinks - only for stubborn Deagan strikers<br />
<br />
Click the Step button to get to desired bell output, then long press Step or Repeat until Input LED indicates new pulse width. <br />
<br />
* Long Press Step - (up) lengthen output pulse<br />
* Long Press Repeat - (down) shorten pulse<br />
* Click Repeat - re-test using new pulse<br />
* Double click Test - revert to last saved pulse times (losing any recent changes)<br />
* Long Press Test - saves newly selected timing for all bells before exiting self test<br />
** During save, Input LED blinks four times<br />
<br />
If you want to reset to default pulse times<br />
* Change the module configuration (unplug a module temporarily) and cycle power<br />
<br />
=== DC Striker Module ===<br />
You can use a digital multimeter to check the IGBT output drivers of the DC Striker Module.<br />
[[File:37DC-IGBT-Test.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Test outputs]]<br />
* Make sure the panel is powered off (circuit breaker or local disconnect)<br />
* Unplug the power cable from the Power Supply Module that feeds high voltage to the DC Striker Modules<br />
* Remove the output fuses from the module<br />
* Set the multimeter to Diode Junction test mode<br />
* Hold the red meter probe to the top power pin<br />
* Check the top contact of each fuse holder on the module<br />
** The voltage drop should be around 0.5 Volts - shorted outputs will be near 0 Volts (and fuse will be blown - do not replace)<br />
** Return the module to Chime Master for replacement/rework if any measurement is less than 0.35 Volts<br />
<br />
== Repairs ==<br />
Do not unplug cables or make wiring changes while module power lights are on. Turn off circuit breakers or disconnects first.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
