Handle the CP7317RS carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage internal components. Do not place heavy objects on top of the CP7317RS. If the CP7317RS is to be mounted, to a table or wall, use only Altinex made mounting accessories (Rack DA1298FC, Rack Mount Ears DA1299RM) and cables for optimum setup.
ABOUT CP7317RS - RS-232 CONTROLLER The CP7317RS RS-232 Controller is designed to provide expanded capabilities to any control system. The CP7317RS is designed to accept RS- 232 commands from a control device and output those commands as relay contacts or digital high or low.
CP7317RS DESCRIPTION CP7317RS FEATURES RS-232 PORT This port (located next to the power outlet) is a fully programmable, bi-directional, and full duplex port that has the ability to operate at any baud rate up to 9600. The general standard on transmission is 8 bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
The ASCII and binary communication formats are currently programming is available. If you know your requirements and would like for ALTINEX to program the unit prior to shipment, our technical support team will be happy to discuss your needs and provide programming at a very reasonable fee.
4.7 PROGRAMING COMMANDS The commands below are used for presetting the default status of the unit. Note: AFTER USING THE PROGRAMMING COMMANDS LISTED BELOW, THE CP7317RS SHOULD BE POWERED OFF AND THEN ON. [SETIp,b,n] This command sets individual pins of each I/O port to input or output status.

This letter defines the status of a pin, while its position in a string number corresponds to the pin number on the I/O Port of the CP7317RS. For example b status of Pin 4 on the I/O connector. The valid pins on I/O port are from 1 to 9 except 5.

FIGURE 6: Input/Output Port Pin Configuration This letter designates the status of the pin as either high or low during “Power up” of the unit. when n = 1 the pin is set as high when n = 0 the pin is set as low Example: Set pin 1 of port 3 as low during POWER ON.
This letter designates the status of the relay during “Power up”. n=1 relay is open n=0 relay is closed Example: Set relay 6 of port 2 to be open at power up.[SETPR2,6,1] Set relay 2 of port 4 to be closed at power up.[SETPR4,2,0] [SETPRp,b This command sets the “Power ON”...

Bit No. Connector Pin No. Data that defines the status of the pin n=1 or n=0. [SETDp, b SET all pins on the particular I/O port of the unit. This command defines if I/O port pins will be high or low. The pin must be set as output if it needs to be set low.
[READDp] Read Digital status of a particular port. The feedback is in the following format [10011100] 1 is for high 0 is for low. The feedback provides status of all pins. Left most character is a bit pin number Port number, this is an ASCII character from 1 to 4 that matches the port number on the back of the acceptable values are 1,2,3 or 4.
