Digital Input Channels
The CXCI can accommodate up to two (2) channels and can monitor digital alarm/control signals from converters
(
software version 1.97 minimum
), rectifiers, and many other types of equipment.
2.6
Alarm and Control Output Relays
The CXCI contains four (4) Form C digital alarm output relays to extend alarms and control external apparatus.
Each internally generated alarm or control signal may be mapped to any one of the relays, or, several signals may
be mapped to just one relay or none at all.
2.7
Network Connection and Remote Communications
The Cordex system can be set up, monitored and tested via Ethernet 10/100 Base-T serial data connection. The
communication protocol supports a web interface. All alarming and control of Cordex converters is accomplished
with a CXC via a CAN bus.
Controller software version 1.97 is the minimum requirement.
A step-by-step connection wizard – provided to establish remote communications with your CXC – is available via
the Alpha website (www.alpha.ca).
