GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Model CSMSTR is a communications and control platform designed for
use with Modular Controller Series slave modules. The CSMSTR 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 CSMSTR automatically identifies and addresses
connected slave modules. By storing the configuration information of all of the
modules, the CSMSTR 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 CSMSTR 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 virtual HMI feature allows you to create and control
an HMI from any networked PC. An onboard CompactFlash slot provides
storage for the Master’s built-in data logger.
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 CSMSTR 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.

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.
