General Information
The Model 12584-001 I/O Control Module provides 32 dry contact inputs and 32 digital outputs. The
control module requires a 12 or 24 volt dc power supply. For communication and control by other
systems, the control module is equipped with two types of serial data interfaces (RS-232 and RS-485).
Data Connections
The I/O Control Module supports both RS485
and RS-232 data connections. A jumper is
provided to select either RS-485 or RS-232
data communications. The use of either the
RS-485 or RS-232 is dependent on the
application. Please refer to the
interconnecting device for data connection
details (i.e., AMI manual).
For RS-485, the data connections are made
directly to TB2, terminals 1 and 2. Typically,
TB2-1 (+) and TB2-2 (-) connect to the
corresponding + and – terminals on the
controlling device.
For RS-232, a standard male DB-9 connector is provided. A null modem cable should be used when
connecting to the controlling device.
