Page 19: Networking And Power Supply
With the introduction of the 48 VDC power adaptor for the imc CRONOSflex system (CRFX base unit and the CRFX input modules), the power supply socket on the device has been changed so that the 48 VDC power adaptor can only be used with imc CRONOSflex systems and not with other imc measurement devices with an input supply voltage of 10..32 VDC. - Page 20 ACC/FGG-ADAP-PHE If the imc CRONOSflex base unit runs with 48 VDC power supply rather than the 24 VDC power supply, it is possible to operate a larger number of modules or a module with more power consumption directly with one power adaptor.

Main switch Chapter 3 3.8 Main switch The imc CRONOSflex base unit has a central main switch by which the complete block of directly clicked (stacked) modules is activated/deactivated. Independently powered, spatially distributed modules and subsystems (blocks) are activated/deactivated directly via their power supply connections. -

Page 24: Isolation And Grounding Concept
For the purpose of controlled grounding, each of the imc CRONOSflex Modules has a dedicated grounding contact on the lower part of its front panel. -
Page 25: Grounding Concept
In particular for reasons of suppressing HF (high-frequency) interference signals stemming from the AC/DC switching power adaptor, direct grounding is normally advisable.

The PoEC supply lines are conducted via RJ45, but not via the module connector. · The local supply for a stacked block of directly connected imc CRONOSflex Modules always comes from the leftmost module's LEMO socket: pin-encoding on the module connector distinguishes which neighboring module is connected "on the left"... -

Since it doesn't have its own manual main switch, this can be accomplished by means of its REMOTE-terminal's remote control signals, for instance by bridging Pins 1 and 2. © 2023 imc Test & Measurement GmbH imc CRONOSflex - Getting Started, Edition 11 - 2023-05-30 Page 32... - Page 33 EOS Short-circuit proof Since theoretically any amount of imc EOS and imc CRONOSflex Modules could be connected to the supply module, the supply module comes with a power limiting circuit with long-term short-circuit protection. This circuit limits the power consumed to approx. 100 W.

Page 34: Power Over Ethercat Operation
3.14.8 Power over EtherCAT operation imc CRONOSflex Modules can also be powered just from the network cable (EtherCAT-system bus), without any separate supply source. For this purpose a minimum voltage of 42 V is required, with a maximum current of 350 mA to be delivered. -

· A maximum length of 85 cm of attached (clicked) modules should not be passed! Mounting elements can be used for more stability. © 2023 imc Test & Measurement GmbH imc CRONOSflex - Getting Started, Edition 11 - 2023-05-30 Page 35... -
Page 36: Internal System-Bus: Network Cables
For connecting the imc CRONOSflex base unit and multiple imc CRONOSflex Modules together to form a single imc CRONOSflex system, besides the power supply an internal system bus is necessary. It is based on standard network hardware and the real-time -Ethernet protocol "EtherCAT". The bus has a line-shaped topology where each module has both an input and output terminal to the bus. -
