Internal Description
This section describes the internal components of the M2A. The internal components of
the M2A include the terminal PCB which provides for all the wiring connections to the
M2A and the control PCB which displays the gas reading and has the control buttons.

Terminal PCB
The terminal PCB is encapsulated in epoxy for protection against moisture and physical
damage. It is mounted into the rear of the junction box with three standoffs and rests on a
thin layer of foam. A banana jack is screwed into each of the standoffs and used for
mounting the control PCB. The terminal PCB converts the electrical output from the
detector to a signal which can be displayed by the OLED display, a 4 - 20 mA signal (that
is proportional to the detection range), and an RS-485 Modbus output signal. The 4 - 20
mA signal may be used by a recording device, gas monitor controller, or programmable
controller. The Modbus output may be used to connect the M2A to a Modbus network.
The terminal PCB also controls three relays, one fail and two gas alarm relays.
Two columns of plug-in style terminal strips are used to make all wiring connections to
the M2A. The column on the left consists of the power/signal, detector, and Modbus
terminal strips. The column on the right consists of the relay terminal strips. A 20 position
connector at the bottom of the terminal PCB is used to connect the terminal PCB to the
control PCB with a ribbon cable. A 5 position connector on the left side of the terminal
PCB is used by factory or field service personnel to program the M2A. A factory adjust pot
just above the programming connector is used to set the detector current.
