GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Model CSMSTRV2 is a communications and control platform designed

for use with Modular Controller Series slave modules. The CSMSTRV2 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 CSMSTRV2 automatically identifies and addresses

connected slave modules. By storing the configuration information of all of the
modules, the CSMSTRV2 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 CSMSTRV2
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 CSMSTRV2 was designed as a direct replacement for the original

CSMSTRSE. This new model provides benefits such as support via Crimson 2.0
software, which allows configuration files to be uploaded. To save programming
time, files originally created in Crimson 1.0 (.cdb files) may be imported into
Crimson 2.0.

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 CSMSTRV2 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.

CONTENTS OF PACKAGE

- CS Master
- Termination Plug
- Terminal Block for connecting power.

SAFETY SUMMARY

All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the

manual 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. An independent and
redundant temperature limit indicator with alarm outputs is strongly
recommended.
