MATRIX 300N™ REFERENCE MANUAL 
 
 
Figure 35 – Matrix 300N PoE PSE Midspan Alternative B Connections NOT SUPPORTED 
 
 
CAUTION: For Matrix 300N PoE models, the internal Digital Output circuitry 
is not powered and supply power is not available to any Input/Output devices 
(Vdc=0).  Only  input  device  signals  can  be  accepted  directly  on  the  M12 
17-pin connector without power. 
For these models, if it is necessary to use Input/Output devices, we recommend 
connecting them through the CBX, which must be powered separately. 
 
 
See par. 4.7 for further details. 
 
 
 
 
4.2  MAIN SERIAL INTERFACE 
 
CAUTION: Do not connect to the Main Interface spring clamp terminals if 
using Host Interface Modules (Fieldbus) with the CBX500. 
 
 
 
The signals relative to the following serial interface types are available on the CBX spring 
clamp terminal blocks. 
 
The main serial interface type and its parameters (baud rate,  data bits, etc.) can be 
defined by the user via DL.CODE software. For more details refer to the Help On Line 
page of the Reading Phase step (Channels) in DL.CODE. 
 
Details regarding the connections and use of the interfaces are given in the next paragraphs.
