Entity Parameters
- The output current of this associated apparatus is limited by a resistor such that the output voltage-current plot is a straight line drawn between open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current. The Entity Concept allows interconnection of intrinsically safe apparatus with associated apparatus not specifically examined in combination as a system when the approved vales of Voc (or Uo) and Isc (or Io) for the associated apparatus are less than or equal to Vmax (Ui) and Imax (Ii) for the intrinsically safe apparatus. Capacitance and inductance of the field wiring from the intrinsically safe equipment to the associated apparatus shall be calculated and must be included in the system calculations. Cable capacitance, Ccable, plus intrinsically safe equipment capacitance, Ci must be less than the marked capacitance, Ca (or Co), shown on any associated apparatus used. The same applies for inductance (Lcable, Li and La or Lo, respectively). Where the cable capacitance and inductance per foot are not known, the following values shall be used: Ccable = 60 pF/ft., Lcable = 0.2 μH/ft.
- This associated apparatus may also be connected to non-incendive or simple apparatus as defined in Article 504.2 and installed and temperature classified in accordance with Article 504.10 (B) of the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70) or other local codes, as applicable. Examples of “simple apparatus” are general-purpose contact/switch, thermocouples and RTD.
- For Intrinsically Safe devices selected associated apparatus must be third-party listed as providing intrinsically safe circuits for the application or have Voc or Vt not exceeding Vmax (or Uo not exceeding Ui), Isc or It not exceeding Imax (or Io not exceeding Ii), and the Po of the associated apparatus must be less than or equal to the Pmax or Pi of the intrinsically safe equipment. Examples of “simple apparatus” are general-purpose contact/switch, thermocouples and RTD.
- Where multiple circuits extend from the same piece of associated apparatus, they must be installed in separate cables or in one cable having suitable insulation. Refer to Article 504.30 (B) of the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70) and Instrument Society of America Recommended Practice ISA RP12.6 for installing intrinsically safe equipment.
- Intrinsically safe circuits must be wired and separated in accordance with Article 504.20 of the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70) or other local codes, as applicable.
- This associated apparatus has not been evaluated for use in combination with another associated apparatus.
- Control equipment must not use or generate more than 250 V rms or dc with respect to earth.
- For installations in which both the Ci and Li of the intrinsically safe apparatus exceeds 1% of the Co and Lo parameters of the associated apparatus (excluding the cable), then 50% of Co and Lo parameters are applicable and shall not be exceeded.

Analog Inputs (Pins 1 – 10b)
The MX5-R2 is equipped with 10 analog inputs marked 1 through 10b. Analog
inputs 7 through 10 may be optionally set to read a linear resistive device up
to 5kΩ.
Important:
For Entity Parameters or Power Supply and Grounding, refer to Wire
Connections.
NOTE:
These circuits are not required to be in conduit if all the requirements for
ic protection are met and Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) allows.
Devices that are self-powered 4-wire devices, such as flowmeters and VFD drives, do not receive power from the panel and offer a pure current loop.
Digital Inputs (Pins 11 – 34b)
The MX5-R2 is equipped with 24 digital inputs marked 11 through 34 for the
input and 11b through 34b for ic protected power to loop through the external
switch back to the input. Alternately the external switch may use B+ or B- to
activate the digital input. An LED lights when the digital input is active.
Important:
For Entity Parameters or Power Supply and Grounding, refer to Wire
Connections.
NOTE:
These circuits are not required to be in conduit if all the requirements for
ic protection are met and Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) allows.
Analog Outputs (Pins 40 – 46b)
The MX5-R2 is equipped with four 2-wire current transmitters for controlling
various processes. The supply voltage and measuring currents are supplied by
the MX5-R2 over the same two wires. These transmitters are used to convert
various process signals representing flow, speed, position, level,
temperature, pressure, etc., to 4-20mA DC for the purpose of transmitting the
signal over some distance with little or no loss of signal.
Important:
For Entity Parameters or Power Supply and Grounding, refer to Wire
Connections.
NOTE: The MX5-R2 provides all operating power (~B+) to the transmitter and receiver and any other loop components.
- An important aspect of building a current loop system is avoiding ground loops by wiring the return signal to the associate B- terminal.
- These circuits are not required to be in conduit if all the requirements for ic protection are met and Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) allows.
FET DC– (Pins 47 – 79b)
The MX5-R2 is equipped with 16 Low Side 250 mA max Switches. The LED lights
when the switch is active.
Important:
For Entity Parameters or Power Supply and Grounding, refer to Wire
Connections.
NOTE: If an inductive load does not have an internal flyback diode, it is recommend you install a 1A 600V PIV diode in parallel with the load.
(1N4005 – EC P/N 36-16-1002)
- To ground ignition, use pilot relay with 25 Ω 3 W series resistor to ground.
- Interposing relays are recommended to interface with end devices that require high current ratings or alternative voltage supplies.
- Consult General Cautions for Solid-State Devices for best practices when connecting to external inductive load devices such as relays or solenoids. www.fwmurphy.com/other-support-resources/general-cautions-solid-state-devices.
Power (Pins 35 – 36)
The 10-30 VDC power for the MX5-R2 is applied to the power supply terminals
marked 35 B+ and 36 B−. An external 10 amp replaceable fuse protects the
system from over-currents. The power LED lights when power is applied to the
system.
Important:
For Entity Parameters or Power Supply and Grounding, refer to Wire
Connections.
NOTE: Run power directly from battery posts to controller power terminals when battery is the power supply.
- Maximum power ratings based on all I/O operating in the ON position with 10V supply. Typical based on 24V supply.
Magnetic Pickup, MPU (Pins 36 – 38)
- The MPU for the MX5-R2 is applied to the magnetic pickup terminals marked 37 MPU- and 38 MPU+, MPU 5-40 Vrms 30-10 kHZ. If used, the foil shield and drain wire of the cable assembly may be terminated at 35b- or 36b-. The MPU sends the pulses to the controller, which calculates the engine speed.
- FW Murphy recommends using 00031022 Magnetic Pickup 4 in. Length and 00031023 Magnetic Pickup Cable 50 ft.
Important:
For Entity Parameters or Power Supply and Grounding, refer to Wire
Connections.
NOTE: The MPU input requires a minimum signal of 2 Vrms when connected.
RS485 (Pins 60 – 62, 80 – 81)
The MX5-R2 is equipped with two RS485 communications ports.
- RS485 1 uses 61 A1 / 62 B1.
- RS485 2 used 80 A2 / 81 B2.
- The TX LED lights when the port is transmitting. The RX LED lights when the port is receiving.
Important:
For Entity Parameters or Power Supply and Grounding, refer to Wire
Connections.
NOTE:
A is the non-inverting pin and should have a single pull-up physically placed
anywhere on the network. B is the inverting pin and should have a single pull-
down physically placed anywhere on the network.
- These circuits are not required to be in conduit if all the requirements for ic protection are met and Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) allows.
- Consult RS-485 the Murphy Way for information on best practices for connecting and communicating on RS-485. www.fwmurphy.com/uploaded/documents/pdfs/rs-485murphyway.pdf.
The recommended arrangement of the wires is as a connected series of point-to- point (multidropped) nodes, i.e. a line or bus, not a star, ring or multiply connected network.
RS-485 Typical Connections
- USE EIA RS485 SHIELDED, TWISTED PAIR, 120 OHMS CHARACTERISTIC IMPEDANCE.
- INSTALL 120 OHMS TERMINATING RESISTOR ON FIRST AND LAST NODE ON RS-485 NETWORK.
- ALL RS-485 DEVICES MUST SHARE DC COMMON GROUND.
CAN (Pins 64 – 65)
- The MX5-R2 is equipped with one CAN communication port. The port is marked pin 64 CAN HI and pin 65 CAN LOW.
- The LED lights when the port is active transmitting and when the port is active receiving.
The recommended arrangement of the wires is as a connected series of point-to- point (multidropped) nodes, i.e. a line or bus, not a star, ring or multiply connected network. It is recommended to use CAN-Bus Cable J1939/11 SAE Shielded, twisted pair with 120 Ω characteristic impedance. Install a 120 Ω terminating resistor (software selectable on the Centurion) on the physical first and last node of the CAN network. All nodes must share a common DC ground

For Entity Parameters or Power Supply and Grounding, refer to Wire
Connections.
NOTE:
These circuits are not required to be in conduit if all the requirements for
ic protection are met and Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) allows.
DIP Switch Configuration
Set these switches to the open or closed position for your application.
Node Address:
- DIP1-8: These switches allow you to assign a unique address to each MX5-R2 that may be in the system using either Modbus or CAN communication. This allows the client controller to differentiate between the modules. Addressing is done in binary format, with each switch increasing value by factor of 2. For example, to name the controller address 5, set switch DIP1 and DIP4 to the CLOSED position. Valid settings are from 1 to 239. Addresses 240 thru 255 are for power-up functions only as detailed below.
- DIP Power-up Functions: There is a special feature for switching module operation mode that is activated by setting specific switch positions at power up. Change will only occur if the following switches are set CLOSED at power up. All other times, these switches behave as address selections.
- DIP switches 5-8 CLOSED at power up activates special mode to change the module behavior based on switches 1-4 position.
- 1-4 CLOSED: Load factory defaults to non-volatile settings – restores serial baud rate, Ethernet address and channel configurations to default values.
- 1 OPEN, 2-4 CLOSED: Load Rockwell IO Application.
- 2 OPEN, 1, 3, 4 CLOSED: Load Standard IO Application.
- Stop Bits: For addresses < 31, the RS485 port will use 1 stop bit. For addresses > 31, the RS485 port will use 2 stop bits.
Can Termination:
- DIP9: This switch provides a 120Ω termination resistor for the CAN communication chain. CAN must be wired in a daisy chain configuration. Set this switch to CLOSED only when the module is the end of the network. See control panel drawings for designation.
RS485-1 Termination:
- DIP10: This switch provides a 120Ω termination resistor for the RS485-1 communication chain. RS485 must be wired in a daisy chain configuration. Set this switch to CLOSED only when the module is the end of the network. See control panel drawings for designation.
Ethernet
The MX5-R2 is equipped with two Ethernet communication ports. The ports are marked ETHERNET 1 and ETHERNET 2. An LED flashes when the port is active — transmitting or receiving a message, and an LED lights to indicate the link is active when connected to another device. LED closest to the DIP switch illuminates for 100Mbit connections. LED furthest from the DIP switch illuminates for 10Mbit connections.
WARNING:
Explosion hazard – Do not disconnect the Ethernet port unless the power has
been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous.
Below is an 8P8C modular connector (often called RJ45) commonly used on Cat 5 cables in Ethernet networks.
Twisted-pair Ethernet standards are such that the majority of cables can be wired “straight-through” (pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2 and so on), but others may need to be wired in the “crossover” form (receive to transmit and transmit to receive). The MX5-R2 can automatically detect another computer connected with a straight-through cable and then automatically introduce the required crossover, if needed with no intervention by the installer. 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX only require two pairs (pins 1-2, 3-6) to operate. Since Category 5 cable has four pairs, the spare pairs (pins 4–5, 7–8) in 10- and 100-Mbit/s configurations are not used.
The MX5-R2 uses autonegotiation, an Ethernet procedure by which two connected devices choose common transmission parameters, such as speed, duplex mode and flow control. In this process, the connected devices first share their capabilities regarding these parameters and then choose the highest performance transmission mode they both support. The MX5-R2 supports 10 and 100 Mbit/s over two-pair Cat5 or better cable.
Important:
For Entity Parameters or Power Supply and Grounding, refer to Wire
Connections.
NOTE:
These circuits are not required to be in conduit if all the requirements for
ic protection are met and Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) allows.

Communications For Standard IO Applications (default)
- Physical Layer: The MX5-R2 module features two Ethernet ports, two RS485 serial communication ports, one RS232 serial port, and one CAN bus 2.0B communication port.
- Ethernet Interconnect: Two RJ45 jacks. This connection may require setting the IP address of the module to the desired network configuration. Ethernet port settings can be changed by modifying Modbus registers. Default setting is 192.168.0.100 IP, 255.255.255.0 network mask, 0.0.0.0 Gateway.
- Ethernet Protocol: Modbus TCP/IP server. Refer to the Modbus RTU map provided in this manual for a detailed mapping of the available data and data scaling.
- Serial RS485 Interconnects: Screw terminals. Typically this connection uses twisted shielded pair cable with 120 ohm impedance. RS485 networks are 2-wire, half-duplex, and feature an “A” terminal 61/62, and “B” terminal 80/81.
- 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.
- Serial Baud Rate: default 9600, adjustable up to 115.2k
- Serial 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 239. This maintains flexibility for systems requiring 2 stop bits.
- Serial Protocol: Modbus RTU server. The module may be polled by the Modbus RTU Client at without any additional timing delays and response times will be < 100mS. This may vary depending on the amount of data requested. Modbus RTU timeout settings should be set to >= 400mS.
- Refer to the Modbus RTU map provided in this manual for a detailed mapping of the available data and data scaling.
- CAN bus Interconnect: Screw terminals. Typically this connection uses twisted pair cable with 120 ohm impedance to connect to a FW Murphy Controller. CAN bus networks are 2-wire, with a “HI” terminal 64, and “LOW” terminal 65.
- CAN bus Baud Rate: 250k / 1Mb auto sense.
- CAN bus Protocol: Proprietary for FW Murphy Controllers.
- PC Connection: Reading data from the module into a PC may be done with an Ethernet connection and Modbus TCP/IP client software or serial RS485 or RS232 connection and Modbus RTU client software. A serial interface converter that can convert USB to RS485 would be needed for a RS485 serial connection. (FW Murphy MConfig™ Software and P/N 53702325 may be used for this purpose).
Communications For Rockwell Automation IO Mode (optional)
- Physical Layer: The MX5-R2 module features two Ethernet ports.
- Ethernet Interconnect: Two RJ45 jacks. This connection may require setting the IP address of the module to the desired network configuration. Ethernet port settings can be changed by modifying Modbus registers. Default setting is 192.168.0.100 IP, 255.255.255.0 network mask, 0.0.0.0 Gateway.
- Ethernet Protocol: CIP for use with Rockwell Automation IO.
Modbus Holding Register Description (Standard IO Application Mode)
All data will be contained in 16-bit Modbus Holding Registers. Following the Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP/IP specification, the Most Significant Byte in a 16-bit word is broadcast first, followed by the Least Significant Byte. The module responds to Modbus Function Code 03 (Read Holding Registers), Function Code 06 (Preset Single Holding Register), and Function Code 16 (Preset Multiple Holding Register). Polling invalid/non-existent data will result in Modbus Exception Code response from the module.

Register 400001 Value Description
Register 400001 is a read-only register. This register holds the model number
of the hardware. If you are using multiple Comm modules, it is sometimes
helpful to confirm that you are communicating with the expected module type.
In this case, it will return 33.
Digital Input 1-16 Status (400021)
Register 400021 is a read-only register. The value returned in this register
is unsigned 16-bit data, assigned to digital inputs 1-16. The channel’s bit
position is 1 input bitmapped where bit 0 = digital input 1.
Digital Input 17-32 Status (400022)
Register 400022 is a read-only register. The value returned in this register
is unsigned 8-bit data, assigned to digital inputs 17-24. The channel’s bit
position is 1 input bitmapped where bit 0 = digital input 1. The additional
upper bits for digital inputs 17-24 will remain at 0 and serve as padding to
make a proper 16-bit word to comply with Modbus RTU specifications.
Analog Input Status (400024 – 400033)
Registers 400024 – 400033 are read-only registers. The values returned in
these registers are signed 16-bit raw data counts for analog inputs from 0 –
32768 for a full 0VDC to 5VDC input reading. Enabling the mA option (Registers
400074-400083) converts the input to a 0-24mA range where 0 = 0mA, and 32767 =
24mA. Typical expected counts for 4-20mA input would be 4mA=5243 counts and
20mA=26214 counts.
Analog Output (400047 – 400050)
Registers 400047 – 400050 are read/write registers. The values returned in
these registers are unsigned 16-bit data, assigned to analog outputs driver.
The output can drive from 0-24mA where 0=0mA and 65535=24mA. For example to
set the output at 4mA, write 10485. For 20mA, write 52428.
Digital Output (400061)
Register 400061 is a read/write register. The values returned in these
registers are unsigned 16-bit data, assigned to digital outputs 1 through 16.
The channel’s bit position is 1 input bitmapped where bit 0 = digital output
Digital Outputs at Powerup (400063)
Register 400063 is a read/write register. Set the digital outputs, 1-16 state
as on or off on initial powerup of the module — before it receives any
communication from the client controller. This setting is stored on the module
and retained on power loss.
Digital Outputs at Communication Failure (400064)
Register 400064 is a read/write register. Set the digital outputs 1-16 state
as on or off if communication to the client controller is lost based on the
communication timeout setting in register 400073. This setting is stored on
the module and retained on power loss.
Analog Outputs at Powerup (400065 – 400068)
Registers 400065 – 400068 are read/write registers. Set the analog output
values on initial powerup of the module, before it has received any
communication from the client controller. This setting is stored on the module
and retained on power loss.
Analog Outputs at Communication Failure (400069 – 400072)
Registers 400069 – 400072 are read/write registers. Set the analog output
values on if communication to the client controller is lost based on the
communication timeout setting in register 400073. This setting is stored on
the module and retained on power loss.
Communication Timeout (400073)
Registers 400073 is a read/write register. Set the timeout to signal
communication lost from the client controller, and this will set the outputs
to their communication failure state. All ports are sensed for communication
timeout. So any client talking on any port will reset the communication timer
and keep normal operation.
Analog Input mA enable (400074 – 400083)
Registers 400074 – 400083 are read/write registers. Choose the input type as
4-20mA if this setting is written to “1”. If it is left at “0”, the input will
be a 0-5VDC input. This setting is stored on the module and retained on power
loss.
Digital Input 1-24 Polarity Status (400086 – 400097)
Registers 400086 – 400097 are read-only registers. Each register contains a
pair of digital input polarity status information stored as 2 bytes of
information. The status can be DC-, DC+, or OPEN for each digital input. The
most significant byte in each register is the odd-numbered channel. The least
significant is the even-numbered channel.
