HP Controller (CXC HP)
The Cordex
®
HP (CXC HP) controller provides centralized setup, control and monitoring of power systems. This
ranges from simple monitoring and threshold alarms for temperature, voltage and current, to advanced battery
charging and diagnostic features.
The controller supports dual Ethernet ports and a 4.3” LCD screen to allow simultaneous network, LCD and local
laptop access to the controller including both web and SNMP interfaces.
The controller supports to dual CAN ports to allow up to 256 power and/or ADIO modules to be controlled and
monitored. The controller uses external analog and digital input and output (ADIO) peripherals to monitor electrical
signals (temperature, voltage, temperature) and generate electrical signals through relays.
The most commonly used ADIO peripheral is the L-ADIO for low voltage systems which includes:
• 8 digital inputs
• 4 voltage sensors
• 4 temperature sensors
• 4 current sensors
• 12 Form C relay outputs
