AMX NI-2000, NI-3000, NI-4000 instruction manual Rear Panel Components

Introduction

NI-3000 Specifications (Cont.)

Rear Panel Components:

RS-232/422/485 (Ports 1 -7)

ICSNet

ICSHub Out

Relay (Port 8)

Digital I/O (Port 17)

IR/Serial (Ports 9-16)

•Seven 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.

•Channel range = 1-255

•Channels 1-254 provide feedback

•Channel 255 (CTS Push channel): Reflects the state of the CTS Input if a 'CTSPSH' command was sent to the port

•Output data format for each port is selected via software

•Seven DB9 connectors provide RS-232/422/485 termination

•Two RJ-45 connectors for ICSNet interface

•Single RJ-45 connector provides data to another Hub connected to the Controller

•Eight-channel single-pole single-throw relay ports

•Each relay is independently controlled.

•Supports up to 8 independent external relay devices

•Channel range = 1-8

•Each relay can switch up to 24 VDC or 28 VAC @ 1 A

•Two 8-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (female) connectors provide relay termination

•Eight-channel binary I/O port for contact closure

•Each input is capable of voltage sensing. Input format is software selectable.

•Interactive power sensing for IR ports

•Channel range = 1-8

•All inputs are assigned to respective IR/Serial ports for "automatic" power control through the use of software commands. Power control is provided via commands such as: ’PON’, ’POF’, ’POD’, ’DELAY’, I/O Link etc.).

•Contact closure between GND and an I/O port is detected as a PUSH

•When used as voltage input - I/O port detects a low signal (0- 1.5 VDC) as a PUSH and a high signal (3.5 - 5 VDC) as a RELEASE

•When used as an output - each I/O port acts as a switch to GND and is rated at 200 mA @ 12 VDC

•One 10-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (female) connector provides I/O port termination

•Eight IR/Serial control ports support high-frequency carriers up to

1.142 MHz

•Each output is capable of two electrical formats: IR or Serial

•Eight IR/Serial data signals can be generated simultaneously.

•Channel range = 1-32,767

•Channels 1-128 (output): IR commands

•Channels 129-253: used as reference channels

•Channel 254 (feedback): Power Fail (used with 'PON' and 'POF' commands)

•Channel 255 (feedback): Power status (when IO Link is set)

•Two 8-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (female) connectors provide IR/Serial port termination
