1 Introduction
The Manager IQ Easy is equipped with an on/off switch, 6 connectors for connecting Simco-Ion
equipment (Devices), various I/O connectors and a 7” touchscreen as a user interface. The user
interface is in colour and can be easily operated using a finger or stylus.
Using the Manager IQ Easy, Simco-Ion equipment can be configured, read out, monitored and
controlled. Also, you can easily control the quality, using the data and action logging feature on
the Manager. You can read out this data with an FTP connection through the Ethernet connection
or copy it to an external USB drive.
Remote control is possible using an optional Fieldbus and through the machine I/O connector
with which different digital and analogue in- and outputs can be configured.
To further expand the system to up to 30 Devices, the system has 2 serial COM connectors for
connecting Extension IQ Easy control units.
The Manager IQ Easy is available with 24V DC input and as a universal 100-240V AC 50-60Hz
version. A special version of the Manager IQ Easy is also available that can be used with
‘emergency-off’ installations, whereby the Manager IQ Easy remains supplied with voltage,
while the Devices are de-energised in an emergency-off situation. As a result, the Devices can
no longer deliver high voltage, which creates a safe environment in an ‘emergency-off’ situation.
Each Device port provides the 24V DC supply voltage and the communication with the Device.
All Device ports and other I/O ports are controlled through the internal Backplane IQ Easy interface.
