Power Supply The M2M Control CX320 device must be supplied with 8..36 VDC from an external DC power source. Positive power is applied to the SUPP pin and the ground to the PGND pin. There are three different ground labels for ground connections: Supply ground (PGND), signal ground (SGND), and analog ground (AGND).
M2M Control CX320 Technical Manual V1.01 Digital outputs The digital outputs control eight "high-side" switches. They function like contacts, where one side is connected to the positive supply of the CX320 unit, and the other side is to the output. The switches are protected against short circuits, ESD, and electronic kickback from inductive loads such as a relay.
S0 compliant inputs (IEC62053-31, Class A compatible) In S0 configuration, the relevant M2M Control CX320 input will act as a 'pulse input device,' where a current source is provided on the input connector so that a simple switch between the SGND and the appropriate input will activate it.

M2M Control CX320 Technical Manual V1.01 Analog Inputs The M2M Control CX320 has four analog inputs, which can be configured individually to work either as voltage or current measurement inputs using the configuration jumpers. The range in voltage mode is 0..10 VDC, and in current mode 0..20mA.
250Ω. The inputs are low-pass filtered, ESD- and transient protected. Please notice: The M2M Control CX320 unit must be supplied with a minimum of 12VDC in order for the analog outputs to work according to the specifications.
If the M2M Control CX320 is used as an endpoint node, the jumper for the RS485 port can be inserted in order to terminate the RS485 communication lines with 120Ω.
