Front Panel Components:
LINK/ACT
• Green LED blinks when the Ethernet cable is connected and an active link
is established. This LED also blinks when receiving Ethernet data packets.
Status
• Green LED blinks to indicate that the system is programmed and
communicating properly.
Output
• Red LED blinks when the Controller transmits data, sets channels On/Off,
sends data strings, etc.
Input
• Yellow LED blinks when the Controller receives data from button pushes,
strings, commands, channel levels, etc.
RS-232/422/485 LEDs
•
Three sets
of red and yellow LEDs light to indicate the rear DB9 Ports 1 - 3
are transmitting or receiving RS-232, 422, or 485 data:
- TX LEDs (red) light when transmitting data
- RX LEDs (yellow) light when receiving data
- LED activity reflects transmission and reception activity
Relay LEDs
•
Four
red
LEDs light to indicate the rear relay channels 1 - 4 are active
(closed).
• These LEDs reflect the state of the relay on Port 4
• If the relay is engaged = LED On and if the relay is Off = LED Off
IR/Serial LEDs
•
Four red
LEDs light to indicate the rear IR/Serial channels 1 - 4 are
transmitting control data on Ports 5 - 8
• LED indictor for each IR port remains lit for the length of time that IR/Serial
data is being generated
I/O LEDs
•
Four yellow
LEDs light when the rear I/O channels 1 - 4 are active
• LED indicator for each I/O port reflects the state of that particular port
Rack-mount brackets
• Provide an installation option for the Integrated Controller to be mounted
into an equipment rack, when used with the Installation Kit (
KA2105-01
).
Rear Panel Connectors:
RS-232/422/485 (Ports 1 -3)
•
Three
RS-232/422/485 control ports using DB9 (male) connectors with
XON/XOFF (transmit On/transmit Off), CTS/RTS (clear to send/ready to
send), and 300-115,200 baud.
• Channel range = 1-255
• Channels 1-254 provide feedback
• Channel 255 (CTS Push channel): Reflects the state of the CTS Input if a
'CTSPSH' command was sent to the port
• Output data format for each port is selected via software
• Three DB9 connectors provide RS-232/422/485 termination
ICSNet
•
Two
RJ-45 connectors for ICSNet interface
ICSHub Out
• RJ-45 connector provides data to another Hub connected to the Controller
