Firmware Version 5-XX for 2450 Modems
Both RS-422 and RS-485 are multi-drop capable.
The 9850 can drive up to 32 receivers on one
twisted pair. Although the 9850 uses standard RS-
485 drivers, the 9850 firmware does not have a full
duplex protocol. Contact MSI for custom solutions
for networking with RS-485.

SET POINTS OUTPUT
Set Points Output Cable
The 9850 can directly drive up to 5 external relays which correspond to the CellScale system Set Points 1-5. The
open drain MOSFET output lines are transient and inductive kickback protected so that no snubber network is
needed for coil relays. The drivers are rated for 5-25Vdc relay coils up to 150mA. The Set Points Port provides
a source of 5V, but limit drain from this source to 500mA total maximum.
Set Point outputs 1-4 are always available. Use of Set Point 5 requires that jumper JP6 on the Processor board is
positioned 1-2. This modification requires SMD soldering skills. Normally the line is connected to circuit ground
to allow a power return for use of the 5V supply. Set Point 5 is also shared with the Audible Alarm option regard-
less of the JP6 setting.
