GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Model CSMSTR is a communications and control platform designed for 

use with Modular Controller Series slave modules. The CSMSTR uses a 
proprietary high speed serial protocol to communicate, via backplane connection, 
with up to 16 slave modules. Through the same connection, the Master also 
provides power to the modules. 

When powered up, the CSMSTR automatically identifies and addresses 

connected slave modules. By storing the configuration information of all of the 
modules, the CSMSTR is able to automatically configure modules if they are 
replaced.

The Master provides high-speed RS232/422/485 communication ports and an 

Ethernet port for connection to PCs, PLCs, and SCADA systems. An extensive 
list of master and slave protocol drivers are available to allow the CSMSTR to 
share and exchange variable data with external devices. The 10 Base-T/100 

Base-TX Ethernet port can also be used to connect and share data with other 
devices at high speeds. The virtual HMI feature allows you to create and control 
an HMI from any networked PC. An onboard CompactFlash slot provides 
storage for the Master’s built-in data logger. 

The design of the Modular Controller Series high density packaging and DIN 

rail mounting saves time and panel space. The controller snaps easily onto 
standard top hat (T) profile DIN rail.

SOFTWARE

The CSMSTR is programmed with Crimson 2.0 software for Windows

 2000 

or later platforms. The software is an easy to use, graphical interface which 
provides a means of communication configuration, as well as commissioning 
and calibration of new systems.
