To connect a device to a Plugable Terminal Block:
1.
Insert one of the wires required for your device into
the appropriate opening in the Plugable Terminal
Block you reserved for that device (refer to Table 2-2
on page 17). For example, if you were adding an IR
motion sensor, you would connect the motion sensor
power input to +12v, its ground connector GND, and
its output to SIG.
2.
Lower the opening’s latch until it locks the wire in
place.
3.
Repeat Steps 1-2 for all wires required for your
device.
Connect Wires to a
Configurable Serial Port
Media Controller provides four serial ports: Two that use
standard male DB9 connector and two that are
configurable as RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 and provide
hardware handshake.
Wiring to one of the configurable ports depends on the
wiring requirements of the device you are connecting.
Refer to your device’s documentation and the following
tables to determine how to wire the port. Refer also to
“Use the Plugable Terminal Blocks” on page 20.
Table 2-3.
