2-Series Professional Media Controller Crestron MC2E
2. Using a voltmeter, determine which wire connects to the Tip, Ring, and
Shield of the mini phone jack.
3. Connect the bare wires of the CNXRMIRD to the appropriate pins on the
3-position connector supplied with the MC2E.
For more information on the CNXRMIRD refer to the latest revision of the
CNXRMIRD Infrared Detector Operations Guide (Doc. 8165).

This connector provides four software programmable analog and digital inputs as well
as digital outputs. Digital outputs offer 250mA sync from maximum 24 VDC; catch
diodes for use with "real world" loads. Digital inputs are rated 0 – 24 VDC, 20K ohms
input impedance, logic threshold 1.25 VDC. Analog inputs are rated 0 – 10 VDC,
protected to 24 VDC maximum, 20K ohms input impedance; pin-programmable 2K
ohms pullup resistor to +5V.
NOTE: Digital outputs are TTL values and may not work with devices requiring a
“dry” contact closure (e.g., low voltage motor controllers).
NOTE: Ports can be used for either input or output, but not both. For more
information, refer to “Slot 3: C2I-MC2-IO4” on page 27.

RELAY OUT
These connectors provide four normally open, isolated relay contact groups. Each
relay contact closure is rated 1A, 30 VAC/DC; MOV arc suppression is provided
across contacts for use with "real world" loads. For more information, refer to “Slot 4:
C2I-MC2-RY4” on page 29.

These two DB9 (male) software programmable, bi-directional serial ports are
available for RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 communication, with hardware and software
handshaking. Speeds are rated up to 115,200 bps. Both ports are Cresnet Network Poll
Accelerator ready.
NOTE: The Cresnet Network Poll Accelerator allows a 2-Series control system to
maintain a fast response time (high-speed communications) between the control
system and a large number of Cresnet devices. For more information, refer to the
latest revision of the Network Poll Accelerator Operations Guide (Doc. 6087).
NOTE: The pinout of each 9-pin port is non-standard (refer to the table after these
notes, titled "Non-Standard COM Pinout"); it contains RS-422 pins in addition to
RS-232. This may result in a conflict with some equipment and therefore all nine
pins should not be used. Only the required pins for each communication type
should be connected. For RS-232 and –422, pins 2, 3, 5, 7, and 8 are wired straight
through.
NOTE: Data Set Ready (DSR) and Data Terminal Ready (DTR) are not supported.
