Five switches on the SW1 are used to set the board address. Five binary switches allow 2 5 =32 addresses, but
remember that only 16 CMX can actually be addressed on a single communication line. Never use addresses above 15
(0F Hex); the SW1-4 setting must be always ON.
The switches SW1-1, SW1-2 and SW1-3 are used to define the board type. For the CMX-24O they must have the
setting shown in Table 5.1.
The switches SW2-1, SW2-2 and SW2-3 are used to define the meaning that the CMX firmware assigns to the output
status. The meaning is assigned to the outputs in groups of eight, and so 3 switches are enough to define the meaning
of 24 outputs. If the switch is set OFF, the eight outputs corresponding to it are evaluated active when they are closed
("normal" condition in Table A.2). If the switch is set ON, the outputs are complemented, i.e. their active status
corresponds to the open status. Table A.2, in Annex A, summarizes their meaning.
In the upper left part of board there are two double jumpers, marked JP1 and JP3. Each one has a "A" jumper and a
"B" jumper. Their setting is as follows and must not be changed:
The I/O board (CD 91200) of the CMX-24O is able to drive up to 24 outputs. On the board it is easy to recognize the two
rows of twelve photocouplers each, the small blocks with four pins, the two LEDS blocks of 24 and 4 LEDs
respectively, on the left board side and the 64-pin DIN connector on the right side.
The 24 LEDs are linked to the I/O port. When a LED is ON this means that the output is closed at the corresponding
output port. Note that the LED signifies only a physical condition (i.e. current flowing through the diode), while the
logical meaning of the output is assigned by the switch setting (see Table A.2).
Looking frontally to the LEDs rows, the four lower LEDs have the following meaning (Fig. 5.1):
−
the upper left is the RS-485 line TX monitor: during normal operation it blinks according to the signals
transmitted.
−
the upper right is the RS-485 line RX monitor: during normal operation it blinks according to the signals
received.
−
the lower left is the power supply monitor: it must be steady ON when the CMX is properly powered.
−
the lower right is the low voltage monitor: during normal operation it is OFF. It lights on when the power
supply voltage drops below the lower limit of 11.4 V.
The board layout is common with the other CMX models (CMX-24I and CMX-16/8). The CMX-24O however has three IC
marked on the PCB as U1, U2 and U3 and the related jumpers marked W25, W26 and W27.
The only feature that can require a maintenance intervention is the fuse on the lower right angle. The fuse is soldered to
the board and it is intended for board protection and not for field protection. If the fuse blows out, probably there is
something wrong with the board. Send it back to Cerberus Dati for maintenance.
Refer to Chapter 8 of this manual for actual connections to external devices.
The power supply must have the characteristics shown in Table 5.3.
