CBX ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
4 CBX ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
All Matrix 300N models can be connected to a CBX connection box through one of the
available CAB-DSxx-S accessory cables. These accessory cables terminate in an M12 17-
pin connector on the Matrix 300N side and in a 25-pin male D-sub connector on the CBX
side.
We recommend making system connections through one of the CBX connection boxes since
they offer the advantages of easy connection, easy device replacement, opto-isolated
outputs (Outputs 1 and 2), and filtered reference signals.
NOTE: If you require direct wiring to the reader the connections are the
same as shown in this chapter with the exception of the digital Outputs. Direct
wiring details are indicated in Appendix A
The table below gives the pinout of the CBX100/500 terminal block connectors. Use this
pinout when the Matrix 300N reader is connected by means of the CBX100/500:
