NOTE:
1) Power is nominally 12V but can be 6-30 VDC.
2) The RS485 screen should be connected at both ends.
3) JMP 1 is the RS485 terminating resistor and should normally be fitted across Pins 2 and 3. (See manual for details.)
4) J4 is for the connection of a PC based diagnostic monitor.
5) J3 is reserved for the manufacturer’s programming purposes.
8.1 DIAGNOSTIC MONITOR The custom graphical program displays the screen
in Figure 3.
Provision has been made to fit a diagnostic PCB to the
HUIO. This PCB plugs into socket J4 of the control This interface will allow the HUIO outputs to be over-

a PC. The controller should be power cycled AFTER
plugging in the diagnostic PCB OR IT WILL NOT
WORK. The unit can be interrogated either via a the
manufacturer supplied custom graphical program,
or by using “Hyperterminal”. Hyperterminal should
be set for 9600 baud, eight data bits, no parity and
one stop bit. The following commands are available:
M* Examine memory location
T* Enter production test mode
S Display input/output status
V Display internal voltages and hardware version
C Display communication status, current baud rate
and modbus address (dip switches)
* These commands are reserved for the manufacturer use only and
could cause mis-operation of the switch and injury or equipment
damage – DO NOT USE.
