GENERAL DESCRIPTION
SAFETY SUMMARY
The XCHSPA option card allows the user to add HSPA+ cellular modem
capability to their Data Station Plus, Modular Controller Master or PTV. The
cellular standard adopted in this option card is HSPA+ with fallback capability
to 3G and 2G. It can get speeds up to 21 Mbps downlink and 5.76 Mbps uplink.
It’s built upon the GSM standard and widely available throughout the world.
HSPA+ can be used for services such as Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)
access, Short Message Service (SMS), and for Internet connectivity.
The XCHSPA option card is penta-band, allowing it to work in frequencies
across the Americas, Europe and Asia. US and Canada work in the 850/1900
MHz bands, while Europe, Middle East, Africa and most of Asia work in the
900/1700/2100 MHz HSPA+ frequencies.
All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the
literature or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to
prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it. If
equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other
actuators not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially harmful to
persons or equipment in the event of a fault to the controller.
CAUTION: Risk of Danger.
Read complete instructions prior to
installation and operation of the unit.
The XCHSPA requires the addition of a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module)
card, which is inserted into the holder prior to installation of the XCHSPA card.
The SIM card securely stores the service-subscriber key (IMSI) used to identify
a subscriber, and is used to connect to the network to obtain an IP address from
the provider.
The XCHSPA communication card is easily installed by removing the blank
expansion port cover of your Data Station Plus, Modular Controller Master or
PTV and plugging the XCHSPA card into the expansion port. Configuration is
simple using Red Lion’s free Crimson® 3.0 software.

2. LINK STATUS LEDs:
Link Status - Link Status LED shows cellular link condition.
3. COMMUNICATIONS:
Isolation from XCHSPA Antenna connector to Modular Controller
Master, Data Station Plus or PTV: 500 VDC for 1 minute.
2. ANTENNA CONNECTOR:
SMA Female connector requires:
50 Ohm antenna with SMA male connector
Penta-band HSPA+ antenna (850/900/1700/1900/2100 MHz) for global
support.
Dual-band (850/1900 MHz) antenna for US and Canada only
Dual band (900/2100 MHz) for Europe only
Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) should not exceed 2.0:1
The antenna cable should be 50Ω impedance, RG178/U or RG174/U type
and be able to connect to the RSMA (Male) jack bulkhead. The antenna
could be horizontal, vertical or right angled. Longer antenna cable would
equate to signal loss. This device is intended for connection to an antenna
mounted within the building or a UL certified enclosure suitably rated for
application.
