The bottom 2 pins of input connector 1 are used to provide the 24V dc power to the MC224. A 24V dc, Class 2 transformer or power source must be provided. POWER CONNECTOR This 24 Volt input also supplies power to the I/O 24 Volts and any daughter boards fitted. The MC224 is grounded via the metal case. It MUST be installed on an unpainted metal plate which is connected to earth. MEMORY CARD SLOT A memory slot is provided for the NexFlash memory stick or P396 SD Card adaptor. Available seperately.

LED ERROR CODES OK STATUS OK STATUS OK STATUS OK STATUS OK STATUS BAT No power or critical fault Normal operation Enable relay open Enable relay energised Error in motion system (flashing) Low Battery (change internal mem battery) Good quality screened cables should be used for the serial ports and for the USB link. The serial ports, USB port and CANbus port are not galvanically isolated, therefore the 0V return MUST be connected to all peripheral devices.
