Manu al MC3-EGA Documentnr.: 180413 version 1.0 2. Technical specifications Type MC3-EGA Communication TCP/IP and serial connection for service purposes Power supply 12 VC DC Power consumption Measurement range Accuracy Inputs 16x Digital input Outputs Communication RS485 ALFANET to Modbus interface (904.000947)
For more information consult your network administrator/supplier. The MC3-EGA is also equipped with an digital input board. These inputs can be used to indicate the status of the ethelene gas supply. At most two ethelene gas packs can be connected to the controller.
The connection diagram of the MC3-EGA indicates how the RS485, Ethernet and 12V power have to be connected. The MC3-EGA will be connected to a TCP/IP network and can be set to use a static IP address or to use a DHCP server to obtain one.
