About the IPL T CR48
The IPL T CR48 is an Ethernet controller designed to be used as one of many nodes in
a distributed control system environment, or as a stand-alone controller allowing legacy
products to link to IP-based networks.
The IPL T CR48 has a single 5-pole captive screw connector for contact closure input and
two 8-pole captive screw connectors for relays. The contact closure input and relay ports
are fully software configurable using a web-based interface connected via an Ethernet port.
The unit hosts its own web pages, stored in blink memory within the device. The
IPL T CR48 supports Telnet, SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), ICMP (Internet Control
Message Protocol) or Ping, and DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
The IPL T CR48 is 1U high and one quarter rack wide (see
options). It can also be mounted near a screen or projector lift.
The interface ships with an external, desktop, 12 V, 1 A power supply that accepts
100-240 VAC input.
