Front Panel LEDs:
• LINK/ACT:
Green LED blinks when the Ethernet cables are connected and
terminated correctly. Also blinks when receiving Ethernet data
packets.
• Status:
Green LED blinks to indicate that the system is programmed and communi-
cating properly.
• Output:
Red LED blinks when the Controller transmits data, sets channels On and
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:
3 sets of red and yellow LEDs light to indicate that DB9 Ports 1 - 3 are trans-
mitting or receiving RS-232, 422, or 485 data.
• Relay:
4 red LEDs light to indicate the relay channels 1 - 4 are active (closed).
These LEDs reflect the state of the relay on Port 4.
• IR/Serial:
4 red LEDs light to indicate the 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:
4 yellow LEDs light when the I/O channels 1 - 4 are active. The LED for each
I/O port reflects the state of that particular port.
Rear Panel Components:
• RS-232/422/485 (Ports 1 - 3): 3 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.
• ICSNet:
2 RJ-45 connectors for ICSNet interface (provided by optional
ICSNet daughter card).
• ICSHub Out:
RJ-45 connector provides data to a Hub connected to the Controller (pro-
vided by optional ICSNet daughter card).
• Relay (Port 4):
• Four-channel single-pole single-throw relay ports
• Each relay is independently controlled.
• Supports up to 4 independent external relay devices
• Channel range = 1-4
• Each relay can switch up to 24 VDC or 28 VAC @ 1 A
8-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (female) connector provides relay termination
• Digital I/O (Port 9):
4-channel binary I/O port for contact closure with each input being capable of
voltage sensing. Input format is software selectable with interactive power
sensing for IR ports.
