Operation Controls and Functions

Front Panel

No. Name Function Description
1 IR Learning Window & LED (Yellow) The yellow LED blinks when the IR wave

is received; If not, the LED is off.
2| IR/Serial LEDs

(Yellow)

| 8 LEDs, each of which blinks in yellow to indicate that the corresponding IR/serial port is transmitting data; If not, the LED is off.
3| Relay LEDs (Yellow)| 8 LEDs, each of which illuminates in yellow to indicate that the corresponding relay port is closed; If not, the LED is off.
4| I/O LEDs (Yellow)| 8 LEDs, each of which blinks in yellow to indicate that the corresponding I/O port has got signal level fluctuation; If not, the LED is off.
5| Power LED (Red)| The red LED illuminates when the device is powered on.
6| LAN LED (Green)| The green LED illuminates when the Controller connects

to the network, blinks when it uses network protocols for data communication.

7| STA LED (Blue)| The blue LED illuminates when the device functions properly after booting, blinking for factory resetting.
8| TX LEDs (Yellow)| 8 LEDs, each of which blinks when the corresponding TX port is transmitting data; If not, the LED is off.
9| RX LEDs (Yellow)| 8 LEDs, each of which blinks when the corresponding RX port is receiving data; If not, the LED is off.

Rear Panel

No. Name Function Description
1 COM1/2/3/4 The controller features 4 sets of programmable two-way multi-

mode serial ports, each of which is a 3.5mm 9-pin phoenix connector (male), compliant with RS232, RS232+Hardware Flow, RS485 and RS422 communication protocols, and capable of configuring 8 baud rates in the range of 2400-115200bps.

More information on the pin-outs of the connector, see table 5-1.

2| COM5/6/7/8| The controller provides 4 sets of programmable single mode serial port, each of which is a 3.5mm 3-pin phoenix connector (male), compliant with RS232 communication protocol, and capable of configuring 8 baud rates in the range of 2400-115200bps.

The pin-outs of the RS232 ports are PIN1 for TXD, PIN2 for GND, and PIN3 for RXD.

3| H-NET| The reserved private bus interface.
4| Ground Terminal| Used for connecting the ground or the earthing conductor of the rack.
5| 100-240V AC

50/60Hz

| The power supply port, used for connecting with external 220V/10A AC power.
6| RESET (1)| Reboot: When the device boots up, press and hold the RESET button for more than 1s less than 5s, then release it, the STA LED on the front panel will flash for five times, indicating that the device is going to reboot. The user projects won’t be auto-uploaded to the controller after rebooting.
6| RESET (2)| Reset: When the device boots up, press and hold the RESET button for more than 5s, then release it, the STA LED on the front panel will flash for 5 times, the device will reset the user configuration information, the IP will be restored to DHCP state, the login password of the management page will be initialized to “admin”, the device time will be initialized to automatic acquisition mode, but user projects won’t be deleted by factory initialization.
7| USB Port| The reserved port for function extension.
8| COMPUTER| The reserved port for test debugging.
9| LAN| The Controller provides a standard 10M/100M/1000M Ethernet RJ45 interface with default auto-negotiated speed for device connection, projects uploading & downloading, network communication and debugging.

The controller boots up with DHCP enabled by default.

After powering on, when the Controller connects to a network where there is no router present to assign IP addresses, the Controller will take the pre-set IP address: 192.168.0.101. If there is a router present on the same network, the router will assign an IP address to the Controller in three minutes and the pre-set IP address will be invalid.

Note: When the controller is DHCP enabled after power on, the router (if connected to the same network) will assign an IP address to the Controller. If network is disconnected at this time, the Controller won’t be able to pre-set an IP address and its IP address would be 0.0.0.0. If a pre-set IP address is needed, you need to power off the Controller and then power it on again. If it is in static IP mode after power on, the Controller won’t preset an IP address either. If there is no router present, you can connect your PC to the LAN port of the Controller and modify the PC’s IP address in the range of 192.168.0.X, then the PC will pre-set an IP address to the Controller in three minutes for data communication.

10| Digital I/O| 8-CH GPIO dry contact input interface, with a voltage range of 0~24V, for collecting digital level signals, capable of low level signal sensing.
11| Relay OUTPUT| The Controller features 8 sets of relay 2-PIN phoenix connectors; each relay is isolated and normally open, and can switch up to 2A 30VDC / 1A 125VAC peak. The connector does not support voltage output.
12| IR-SERIAL OUTPUT| The Controller features 8 sets of multi-mode 2-PIN phoenix connectors for IR transmitting or one-way serial signal outputting. The ports can connect to devices with signal level 0-5V in RS232 mode. The left pin is for IR/serial data, the right for GND.

The IR-Serial working mode is programmable:

In IR transmitting mode, the outputting IR wave length ranges within 20K- 60KHZ.

In one-way serial data outputting mode, the left pin is for TXD, the right for GND, and both are configurable in the program.

PIN1 RX- (used in RS422 and RS485)
PIN2 RX+ (used in RS422 and RS485)
PIN3 TX- (used in RS422 and RS485)
PIN4 TX+ (used in RS422 and RS485)
PIN5 GND
PIN6 TXD (used in RS232 and RS232+hardware flow)
PIN7 RXD (used in RS232 and RS232+hardware flow)
PIN8 RTS (used in RS232+hardware flow)
PIN9 CTS (used in RS232+hardware flow)

Note: In RS485 mode, the wires connecting to PIN1 and PIN3 should be stranded as one, PIN2 and PIN4 as another one
