                                                 CM94-1 Communication module

 

Available with the C, L, P, 100, 200 and 300 Series Controls the Plug & Play RS232 or RS485 Communication Modules may be ordered with an instrument or installed at a later time. [modules may have different part numbers per Control Series].

 

The 100, 300, C, L & P Series controls offer:

  • Modbus Protocol
  • Configurable Control address up to 255 controls in a link
  • Baud Rates configurable from 2.4 to 38.4 kb/second
  • Configurable Parity, Data Bit and Stop Bit values.

 

The older legacy 200 Series Controls do not offer Modbus and communicate at a fixed baud rate, parity and data and stop bit values with up to 40 controls in a link.

 

There is not a specific brochure on these modules.

Retransmission is configurable for:

  • PV1, PV2, Delta PV1/PV2
  • SP, Delta SP/PV
  • Output 1 or 2 percent output

100, B & C Series Controls offer analog linear Retransmission 0-20/4-20mA, 0-5/1-5VDC and 0-10VDC.

Retransmission is configurable for PV.

 

200 Series Controls offer analog linear Retransmission 0-20mA or 4-20mA.

Retransmission is configurable for PV

 

L Series FM Limit Controls and P Series Profile Controls offer analog Retransmission 0-20/4-20mA, 0-5/1-5VDC and 0-10VDC.

Retransmission is configurable for PV or SP

 

There are no specific brochures describing Retransmission Feature. Detail for each control series may be found in their respective instruction manuals.

 

Below are pdf files describing the 15-Bit D/A, calibration, etc. for the 200 & 300 Series platforms.
