NetLinx Master Card, Controller and CardFrames

NXI (price: 1 435,00 €, VAT excluded)

NXI

 

OVERVIEW
The NetLinx Integrated Controller provides incredibly powerful control and networking capabilities and instantly commands projectors, window treatments, security, lighting and even PCs with a full array of RS-232/422/485 ports, IR/Serial ports, Inputs/ Output channels and relays. Measuring only 1 rack unit (1RU) the NXI NetLinx Integrated Controller frees up space for other components.

COMMON APPLICATION
The NetLinx Integrated Controller's sleek modular design and compact size make it perfect for open shelves and tables within home theaters and residences or behind the scenes in a rack used for commercial applications.

FRONT PANEL COMPONENTS

  • Master/Hub Card slot: Accepts an NXC-ME260 or Hub Card
  • RS-232/422/485 TX/RX LEDs: Six sets of red and yellow LEDs light to indicate ports 1-6 are transmitting or receiving RS-232, 422, or 485 data:
    - TX LEDs (red) blink when transmitting data
    - RX LEDs (yellow) blink when receiving data
  • Relay LEDs: Twelve red LEDs light to indicate relay channels 1-12 are active (closed)
  • IR/Serial LEDs: Eight red LEDs light to indicate IR/Serial channels 1-8 are transmitting control data
  • I/O LEDs: Eight yellow LEDs light when I/O channels 1-8 are active

REAR PANEL CONNECTORS

  • ID Pushbutton: Sets the D:P:S assignment for the NXI
  • ICSP LED: Green LED Blinks in unison with the Master card’s NetLinx LED indicating the ICSP bus is synchronized. This LED flashes rapidly when the NXI is in ID Mode (see Using the ID Button for details)
  • RS-232/422/485 Ports (#1-6): Six RS-232/422/485 control ports with XON/ XOFF (transmit on/transmit off), and CTS/RTS (clear to send/ready to send), 300-230,400 baud:
    - Channel range = 1-255
    - Channels 1-254 provide feedback only.
    - Channel 255 (CTS Push channel) reflects the state of the CTS
    - Input if a ‘CTSPSH’ command was sent to the port.
  • Relays Port (# 7): Twelve-channel relay port. Channel range = 1-12
    - You can connect up to 12 independent external relay devices to the Relay connectors on the NXI (port 7)
    - Connectors labeled A are for common and B are for Output
    - Each relay is isolated and normally open
  • IR/Serial Ports (# 8-15): Eight IR/Serial control ports that support high-frequency carriers up to 1.14 MHz:
    - Channel range = 1-32,000
    - Channels 1-253 (output): IR commands
    - Channel 254 (feedback): PowerFail (used with ‘PON’ and ‘POF’ commands)
    - Channel 255 (feedback): Power status (when IOLink is set).
  • I/O Port (# 16): 8-channel I/O port for contact closure, 0-5 VDC voltage sensing, or interactive power sensing for IR ports. Channel range = 1-8

ENVIRONMENTAL
Heat Dissipation (Typical): 44.7 BTU/hr

INCLUDED ACCESSORIES

  • 4 CC-NIRC emitters
  • Metal tab strips for commoning adjacent relays
  • Rack-mount brackets adapt for rack, wall, or shelf mounting
  • NetLinx faceplate
