The Ethernet connection is connected via an RJ45 connector. LAN port 1 has a PoE function (IEEE 802.3af)
so that the MC can be powered by this port.
The serial port is connected by a 9pin D-SUB plug. The assignment is selected in a way that a 1:1 serial
cable can be used for the connection to a serial COM-Port of a PC. The exact assignment can be seen in
Figure 2.
The power supply for the MC device needs a voltage source of 10-72V. The usual power consumption is
around 3-4 Watt (WLAN + LAN-Port active).
1.1 Ports of the MC1
The following figures show how the LEDs and ports of the MC are arranged.
Figure 2 shows the MC1 in its standard design with one serial Port, a 5pin M12 connector for power supply
and a relay switching contact.
There are different option for the power connector of the MC devices:
