9.8.1 Can Serial Port
The CXC HP controller has dual CAN bus ports, for communications with Alpha Cordex and AMPS
family products and other CAN-enabled equipment on the same system. Connect, via daisy-chain from
node to node - use CAN OUT of one node connected to CAN IN of another node, as necessary and
ensure that only the last node is terminated.
9.9 Network Connection and Remote Communication
The Cordex system can be set up, monitored and tested via Ethernet.
NOTE: Pinouts use a standard Ethernet cable pinout.
The communication protocol supports a web interface. The web interface is an enhanced view with the
same structure and menus as the controller’s LCD display.
9.9.1 Ethernet Port: Network Connection
The Ethernet port is designed for CXC connection to a user supplied network (TCP/IP secured by user)
via an RJ-45 jack with a standard network cable.
The Ethernet cable should be a maximum of six meters in length to meet GR-1089 compliance. For
Ethernet cable runs of greater than six meters, a shielded Ethernet cable must be used, with both ends
of the shield firmly affixed to ground.
Ethernet LED indication patterns On the Ethernet connector there are two LEDs.
• The yellow LED indicates activity and flashes when Ethernet packages are being exchanged.
• The green LED will be lit for a 100BaseT connection, and will be unlit for a 10BaseT connection.
Both LEDs will be off if there is no cable is plugged into the Ethernet port.
9.9.2 Ethernet Port: Local Connection
Local access (e.g. to a laptop computer) is also possible from the Ethernet port connection via either a
standard Ethernet or a network cable.
