The RS485 circuit controls the Input and Output direction automatically, there’s no need to control it from
within the software.
The default product without the CM4 does not include a Wi-Fi/BT module. You can include a CM4 that has the
Wi-Fi/BT module at the Chipsee store during the ordering process.
Chipsee designed one of the TF card slots for Lite version which have no eMMC. We designed the other one for
storage expansion, as the TF card for storage expansion use same pins with WiFi, it can’t be used with WiFi at
same time.

Power Input
The EPC/PPC-CM4-070 industrial Pi PC can be powered by a wide range of input voltages:
From 9V to 36V DC. There are two types of power input connectors. One is a 3 Pin, 3.81mm
screw terminal connector, and the other is a 2.1mm DC input head. As shown in the
gure below.
Power Input
Note that the “+” sign represents the positive power input, and it is printed both at the
casing and as a silk-screen on the board of the embedded version. The “-” terminal is
shorted to the ground.
Power Input Denition
Pin Number Denition Description
Pin 1 Positive Input DC Power Positive Terminal
Pin 2 Negative Input DC Power Negative Terminal
Pin 3 Ground Power System Ground

Note
The system ground “G” is connected to power negative “-” on board.

Touch Screen
The EPC/PPC-CM4-070 industrial Pi PC uses a 5-point capacitive touch screen. However, the
Debian OS supports only One-Point touch.
The gure below shows the capacitive touch screen connected to the motherboard via the
FPC connector.
Capacitive Touch Connector
Attention
A capacitive touch screen is susceptible to power noise and Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR). It may cause LCD ripples
or even capacitive touch malfunction. If using a capacitive multi-touch test application, you might notice the touch
points oat erratically across the display. There are several solutions to this problem:
Use a high-quality Power Adapter Unit (PSU) with low EMR. You can also provide power from a battery.
Make sure that the EPC/PPC-CM4-070 Power Input connector (pin 3) is properly connected to the Power System
Ground to provide sucient EMI shielding and eliminate the problem entirely.
Bad GND problems can also be conrmed by touching pin 3 of the Power Input connector with one hand while
operating the capacitive touch screen with the other hand. In this case, the operator’s body acts as the Power
System Ground.

Connectivity
There are many connectivity options available on the EPC/PPC-CM4-070 industrial Pi PC. It
has 2 x USB 2.0 Host, 1 x USB OTG, 1 x Channel Giga LAN (RJ45) Ethernet connector
supporting up to 1 Gbps, and 4 x UART and 1 x CAN terminals (RS232/RS485/CAN).
RS232/RS485/CAN
The serial communication interfaces (RS485, RS232, and CAN) are routed to a 16-pin
3.81mm terminal, as illustrated in the gure below.

GPIO Port
The EPC/PPC-CM4-070 industrial Pi PC has a 10 Pin 3.81mm GPIO Connector, as shown in
the gure below. The table below gives details about the denition of every Pin.
Attention
RS485_3 and RS485_5 can control the input and output direction automatically. There’s no need to control it from
within the software.
The 120Ω match resistor for RS485 is already mounted by default.
The 120Ω match resistor for CAN is NOT mounted by default. Be sure to mount the match resistor when testing
CAN.
RS485_3 and RS232_3 share UART3 and can’t work at the same time; RS485_5 and RS232_5 share UART5 and can’t
work at the same time. Meaning the product provides 4 x RS232 + 0 x RS485, or 2 x RS232 + 2 x RS485, or 3 x
RS232 + 1 x RS485.

Isolated GPIO reduced schematic
Attention
In order to use the Isolated Output, you need to add an external Isolated Power to the VDD_ISO and GND_ISO.
The power voltage should not exceed 24V.
The output current can achieve 500mA for every channel, but it also depends on the isolated power that is
connected.
In order to use the Isolated Input, you need to add a signal to the ISO_InputX and GND_ISO. A 2.4KΩ resistor, as
R6, can be added to limit the input current, as shown in the gure above. This resistor should work well for the
5-24V input signal. If your input signal is less than 5V, please change this input resistor.

USB HOST Connectors
The product has one USB Type-C OTG connector that works as a slave by default. You can
use it to establish a connection with the host PC and for downloading the system to the
eMMC of CM4 module.
USB Type-C OTG Connector
LAN Connectors
LAN (RJ45) connector provides Ethernet connectivity over standardized Ethernet cables as
shown in the gure below. The integrated Ethernet interface supports up to 1 Gbps data
throughput. These Giga LAN signals come from the CM4 module directly.
Attention
1. These two USB host connectors can drive 500mA for each channel at most.
2. These two USB host connectors, Zigbee and 4G/LTE come from the same USB HUB.
3. When you connect this product to the HOST PC through the Type-C port, the USB HUB will be disabled. As a result,
the two USB host connectors, Zigbee and 4G/LTE will not work.

Warning
Be careful not to touch surrounding electronic components accidentally while plugging in USB devices into the
embedded Industrial PC version.
Remember to unplug the Type-C cable after ashing OS, otherwise the USB hosts won’t work.

an external WiFi/BT antenna, as illustrated in the gure below.
WiFi+BT Antenna
3G/4G/LTE Module
The EPC/PPC-CM4-070 industrial Pi PC is equipped with a mini-PCIe connector that can
connect to a 3G/4G/LTE module. The customer will also need a SIM Card Holder and a 3G/
4G/LTE antenna to ensure 3G/4G/LTE works on the EPC/PPC-CM4-070. SIM card does NOT
support hot plug. Power o before inserting or removing SIM card.
Note
Use CAT5 or better cables to achieve full data throughput over maximum distance dened by the 1000BASE-T
standard (100m).
