Q23 Expansion Module 

POINT TO POINT 

Two  Q23  DATRAN  eXcel  modules  may  be  inter-connected  together  to  operate  as  a  Point-to-Point  telemetry 
system.    The  two  Q23  point-to-point  modules  may  be  inter-connected  by  either  direct  connected  wires  or  data 
radios.  Specific point-to-point application software must be installed  into each of the Q23 modules in this type  of 
application.   

The following sections detail the setting up and configuration of the above. 

I/O Mapping 

In a point to point system the inputs of one Q23 module are mapped to the outputs of the other Q23 module.  The 
following table shows the I/O mapping Q23 Module A to Q23 module B.

The  same  I/O  mapping  applies  for  Q23  Module  B  to  Q23  module  A.    That  is  the  Inputs  are  mapped  to  Outputs 
across the point-to-

point system modules.  The Analog I/O channels are supplied configured as 0…20mA channels 

as standard.  The Analog channels can be re-

configured to either 0…5 volts or 0…10 volts as required.  Refer to 

the Configuration section of this manual for details. 

Configuration 

This section details the configuration of the point-to-point system. 

The point to point system is generally shipped to the customer pre-configured and ready for use.  However in some 
special applications it may be necessary to change the way in which the point-to-point system operates.   

The point-to-point configuration is setup by the 8-position DIP switch located on the Q23 motherboard.  These DIP 
switches are labelled 1 to 8 and are configured as follows: 

Module Address 

The mo

dule address can be set in the range 0…15.  Both modules in a point-to-point system must have the same 

module  address.    The  module  address  is  set  with  DIP  switches  1,  2,  3  and  4.    The  Module  Address  DIP  switch 
settings are shown in the table below.
