3.2.2 Connecting to the Process Loop Controls
The MC is compatible with both the Future Design Controls P41, ¼ DIN control and B42 board level process
loop controls. The input and output wiring to the individual loop(s) is dependant upon options ordered on each
device as well as the intended application. For detailed information on input and output wiring, refer to the user
manual for the type of control used.
3.2.3 User Serial Communications
The MC touch screen provides an RS232C user communications port for connecting the MC to a PC running
software such as Future Design Control’s Envision software. In order to connect the MC to a PC, a cable must
be fashioned according to the diagram below.
NOTE:
DO NOT use a standard null-modem cable to connect the MC to a PC. Most computers do not
provide a standard serial port and a USB to serial converter must be used. Incompatibilities may exist
between the MC and certain USB to serial adapters which may cause the MC to malfunction when
connected using a standard null-modem cable.
If more than one MC controller is to be placed on the communication link with a PC, an RS232/485 converter
is required for each MC in order to convert the RS232 communications port to a RS485 multi-drop
communications for connecting multiple MC controls on the same PC communications link.
