Installation Diagram

MX5 Jumper Configuration

A| CANbus : Communication Link to Main I/O Module

·         LK2 and LK4: This jumper provides a termination resistor for the CAN communication chain. This jumper must be in place only when the I/O module is the last in the communication chain. See control panel drawings for designation. The cover of the MX5 must be removed to access this jumper link (LK2/LK4). CAN 2 is not used. CAN 1 is used for data links for the communication chain.

(Refer to the Communications chapter in this document)

---|---
B| RS485 Communication Port : Slave Comm. Port. (See Pictorial Above)

·        LK5: These jumpers provide termination, pick-up, and pull-down resistors for the RS485 communication chain. The PU/PD jumpers should only be in one place on the communication chain. The TR jumper must be in place only when the I/O module is the last in the communication chain. See control panel drawings for designation. The cover of the MX5 must be removed to access this jumper link (LK5).

(Refer to the Communications chapter in this document)

C| Communication Address Select Shunts : Comm Address

·        LK6: These jumpers allow designation for assigning a unique address to each MX5 that may be in the system. This allows the master controller to differentiate between the modules. For example, to name the controller address 5, place the shunts on LK1 and LK4. (Refer to the Communications chapter in this document)

---|---
D| Analog Input Select Shunts: Input Type

·        LK3: These jumpers allow designation for assigning the type of analog signal type for each individual input. For a 0-24mA place jumper on middle and top pins. For a 0-5 VDC input, remove the jumper.

Communications

• Physical Layer: The MX5 module features one asynchronous RS232 serial communication port, one asynchronous RS485 serial communication port and one CANbus 2.0B proprietary communication port.

• RS232 Interconnect: The module is equipped with screw terminals called Port 1. This connection is typically used to poll the information for a specific module using twisted shielded cable suitable for RS232 networks. The simplest form of these networks is 3-wire, half-duplex, using RX terminal 57, TX terminal 55, and GND terminal 59. The TX terminal is the TRANSMIT DATA signal; the RX terminal is the RECEIVE DATA signal; and the GND is the COMMON GROUND signal for the communication line. These signal lines will take turns transmitting and receiving depending on the device using the RS232 network at any given instant. The MX5 also provides connections for CTS and DTR signals if required for 5-wire  RS232 connections.

• RS485 Interconnect: The module is equipped with screw terminals called Port 2. This connection is typically used to poll the information for a specific module using twisted shielded pair cable with 120-ohm impedance suitable for RS485 networks. These networks are 2-wire, half-duplex, and feature an A terminal 61, B terminal 62, and SHD terminal 63 shielded ground connection. The A terminal is the + or non-inverting signal, and the B terminal is the – or inverting signal.  These signal lines will take turns transmitting and receiving depending on the device using the RS485 network at any given instant.

• Baud Rate: 9600 fixed (RS232/RS485)

• Protocol: Modbus RTU. This is a binary communication protocol. All data will be contained in unsigned 16-bit Modbus Holding Registers (addressed starting at 40001). Following the Modbus RTU specification, the Most Significant Byte in a 16-bit word is broadcast first followed by the Least Significant Byte.
  Refer to the Modbus RTU map provided in this manual for a detailed mapping of the available data and data scaling.

• CANbus 2.0 B Interconnect: The module is equipped with screw terminals called Port 3. This connection is typically used to provide the interconnections between the main control module which polls the information for a specific module using twisted shielded pair cable with 120 ohm impedance suitable for CAN networks. This network protocol is proprietary CANbus and features a HI (CAN H) terminal 64, LO (CAN L) terminal 65 connection and SHD terminal 66 shielded ground connection.

• Communication Address Select Shunts: A jumper shunt header is provided to assign a unique Modbus RTU and/or CANbus address to each expansion module that may be in the network. This allows the master controller to differentiate between the modules. Addressing is done in binary format, and each incrementing jumper increases the weight by a factor of 2.
  For example, to name the controller address 5, place the shunts on LK1 and LK4. The sum makes 5 (4+1).
  NOTE : RS485/RS232 Communication is 9600-N-8-1 for Address 0-31 and 9600-N-8-2 for Address 32-63.
  Registers start at 40,001.

• Stop Bits: The module will respond with 1 stop bit for Modbus RTU addresses 1 through 31 and 2 stop bits for addresses 32 through 63. This maintains flexibility for systems requiring 2 stop bits.

• Modbus RTU Polling Frequency: The module should be polled by the Modbus RTU Master with a delay of 30-50mS between packets, and typical response times will be < 100mS. This may vary depending on the amount of data requested on each module. Typical Modbus RTU timeout settings should be set to >= 400mS.

• PC Connection: Most commercial PCs are equipped with one RS232 serial port in the form of a 9-pin D-Sub connection. If not, USB to RS232 adapters are also readily available. Testing for RS485 traffic can be done using a PC equipped with any Modbus RTU Master software and a serial interface converter that can convert RS232 traffic to RS485. The PC in this case would serve as the Modbus RTU master in lieu of an external controller.
