Controller Module
C30 and C30S, C50 and C50S, C70 and C70S, C75 Controllers share the same features, with exceptions
noted.
• CPU model number (C30 and C30S, C50 and C50S , C70 and C70S, C75).
• Lithium battery (beneath cover), which is readily accessible for field replacement.
• Mode switch (Pgm, Run/Pgm). Not present on C75; see RSM.
• Interfaces to PC
• For legacy systems, two serial ports, S1 and S2, each configurable as RS-232 or RS-485 interfaces to a
PC.
• For new systems, two serial RS-485 ports, S1 and S2 interfaces to PC using RS-485 to USB cable.
External modem or Modbus devices are interfaced using RS-485 to RS-232 converter. RS-485 interfaces
to PC, Operator Interface or Modbus devices/host.
