The Innotech Repeater expands the network capabilities of the Innotech product range.
Two models are available:
1) IR11 - Single channel repeater designed to expand an SSG or REM network
2) IR12 - Dual channel repeater designed to expand both NET and GLOBAL comms networks.
The Innotech Repeater is 24V AC or DC powered.

Galvanic isolation of both ports to eliminate ground loop and potential difference problems.
Data regeneration increases resistance to interference and increases network cabling distances.
Choice of single channel model (for example: SSG or REM comms) or dual channels (for example: NET and GLOBAL comms)
Automatic baud rate detection
Input protection against spikes and noise.
LED indication of comms activity on all connected networks.
24V AC or DC powered.
All wire connections by pluggable screw terminals.

In situations where multiple Digital Controllers are mounted in a switchboard, followed by a long cable run.
In situations where galvanic isolation is received such as multiple Digital Controller networks running between buildings or powered from different electrical switchboards.

Application Notes
The Innotech Repeater is designed for use with networks which posess one or more of the following characteristics:

Any network that extends over a cable which is longer than the maximum cable length for the baud rate used.

Baud Rate	Max Cable Length (in meters)	Network
4800	1000m	Global
9600	1000m	Net
38400	600m	Global or REM
57600	400m	Net
115200	200m	SSG

32 or more nodes are connected to the network
Devices on the network are powered from different electrical switchboards
Devices reside in separate buildings

	CE	https://europa.eu/youreurope/business/product/ce-mark/index_en.htm The CE label is a European marking for products to indicate conformity with the electromagnetic compatibility and health and safety requirements set out in European Union.
	FCC	https://www.fcc.gov FCC marking indicates that the product conforms with the regulations of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for microprocessor-based equipment.
	RCM	https://www.acma.gov.au The RCM compliance mark indicates that a device complies with applicable radiocommunication and electrical safety standards.
	UL	https://www.ul.com UL marking for USA and Canada indicates that the product conforms with the safety standards laid down by Underwriters Laboratories.

Power Supply

24VAC ± 10% @ 50/60 Hz.
Power consumption: ~ 3VA
Transformer nominal rating of 5VA
24VDC ± 15%
Power consumption: ~2W

The operating voltage must meet the requirements of Safe Extra Low Voltage (SELV) to EN60730. The transformer used must be a Class 2 safety transformer in compliance with EN60742 and be designed for 100% duty. It must also be sized and fused in compliance with local safety regulations.

Inputs/Outputs

IR11: 2 x Single RS485 ports (4 way plug in connector)
IR12: 2 x Dual RS485 ports (5 way plug in connector)

Baud Rate Options
Depending on the mode the repeater operates in, it can automatically detect the following baudrates on startup:

IR11:
- 38400 Baud (REM Comms)
- 115000 Baud (SSG Comms)
IR12:
- 9600 or 56700 Baud (NET Comms)
- 4800 or 38400 Baud (GLOBAL Comms)

NOTE: In order to use the repeater in a different mode or switch to another baudrate, the device must be restarted by cycling power.

LED Indication

Power LED (Red): Indicates 24VAC/DC power being present
Comms LEDs: Indicates general comms activity on the RS485 network. Transmit (Red); Receive (Green)

The LEDs correspond to the comms channels in the following way:

IR11 Single Channel	IR12 Dual Channel	LED Label
N/A	PORT 1 GBL	P1-1
PORT 1	PORT 1 NET	P1-2
N/A	PORT 2 GBL	P2-1
PORT 2	PORT 2 NET	P2-2

Temperature Ratings

Storage 0 to 50°C non-condensing.
Operating 0 to 40°C non-condensing.

Enclosure
The Innotech Repeater is housed in a rectangular case suitable for DIN Rail mounting.
The housing is moulded from flame retardant plastics recognised by UL as UL 94-V0.
