3 OVERVIEW
DESCRIPTION
The Output Interface (OI) provides an intelligent replacement for traditional circuit breaker and fuse panels. It has 6x
high power, robust output channels which provide the power supply, control and fusing for a circuit as well as integrating
many other built in features such as timers and dimmers. Connection to the unit is simple: a large 6 way plug allows
connections to cables of up to 16 mm2 (6AWG) in size, or multiple smaller conductors. No need for specialized crimp
terminals and expensive crimp tools to be carried for terminations to CZone, just a blade screwdriver. A protective
flexible boot offers protection to the connections from harsh environment conditions.
FEATURES
•4 levels of backup fusing including manual override (as required by ABYC)
•Multiple channels can be bridged together to offer higher current switching
•Power consumption 12 V: 85 mA (standby 60 mA)
•Dimensions, WxHxD: 7-29/32"x5"x1-3/4" 200x128x45 mm
•Small, non metallic, easy to install case
•6 x 20 amps circuits
•IPX5 water ingress protection
•Programmable software fuse sizes

4 DESIGN
•Make a list of all outputs to be wired to the OI and assign each of them to one of the 6 channels.
•Ensure all cables are appropriately rated for each assigned load.
•Output connector accepts cable gauges 24AWG – 8AWG (0.5 - 6mm).
•Ensure power supply cable to the OI is appropriately rated for the maximum continuous current of all loads
and is fused appropriately to protect the cable.
•Ensure continuous current draw of each connected load does not exceed maximum channel rating of 20A.
•Ensure the maximum continuous current of all loads does not exceed the 100A total module current.
•Install the appropriately rated fuses for each channel.
•Loads exceeding 20A will require paralleling 2 channels together.
5 INSTALLATION
THINGS YOU NEED
•Electrical tools
•Wiring and fuses
•Output Interface Module
•4 x 8G or 10G (4mm or 5mm) self-tapping screws or bolts for mounting the OI
ENVIRONMENT
Obey the following stipulations during installation:
•Ensure the OI is located in an easily accessible location and indicator LED’s are visible.
•Ensure there is enough clearance above the OI to allow the cover to be removed.
•Ensure there is at least 10mm clearance around the sides and top of the OI.
•Ensure the OI is mounted on a vertical flat surface.
•Ensure there is sufficient space for the wires to exit the product.

MOUNTING
OI Mounting
1. Mount the OI on a vertical surface with the cables exiting downwards.
2. Allow enough space below cable grommet for wiring bend radius.
oNote - Cable radius determined by wiring manufacturer.
3. Fasten the OI by using 4 x 8G or 10G (4mm or 5mm) self-tapping screws or bolts (not supplied).
IMPORTANT - The OI must be mounted within 30 degrees from the vertical position to ensure water
correctly runs away from the product if mounted in a location where water can contact the product.

EN / CZone® Output Interface (OI) User & Installation Manual
CONNECTIONS
The OI has a convenient output connector that requires no crimping tools and accepts cables from 24AWG to 8AWG
(0.5 - 6mm). The unit has no power key and will turn on when power is applied to the network. The module will continue
to draw power even when it is not in operation. It is recommended that a battery isolator switch is installed for when the
system is not in use.
1. Feed output wires through cable grommet
2. Strip and insert each wire into the connector ensuring the correctly rated wire is used for each load and tighten
screws to 4.43 in/lbs (0.5NM).
3. Insert plug firmly into module and tighten 2x retaining screws.
4. Connect a NMEA2000 drop cable from the NMEA2000 backbone (do not power up network yet).
5. Connect the appropriate size power supply cable to the M6 positive stud and tighten to 35 in/lbs (4NM), ensuring
washers are installed as per diagram.
IMPORTANT - The positive cable must be sufficient size to carry the maximum current of all loads connected
to the OI. It is recommended to have a fuse/circuit breaker rated to protect the cable.

INSERTING FUSES
The OI provides ignition protected circuit protection for each individual channel via standard ATC fuses (not supplied).
Appropriately rated fuses should be selected and installed for each channel to protect the load and the wiring for each
circuit.
Fuses In Normal Operation
1. Select the appropriate fuse rating for each individual circuit.
2. Insert the correctly rated fuses into the NORMAL (bottom) position of all circuits.
3. The ATC fuse should be rated to protect the connected load and the wiring from the OI to the load and also
the ground wire.
MECHANICAL BYPASS
The OI includes a mechanical bypass feature for redundancy purposes. Moving any fuse to the BYPASS (top) position
will supply constant battery power to that output. See below diagram showing circuit #3 in the BYPASS position.
Fuse in Bypass Position
WARNING – Ensure area is free of explosive gasses before removing/replacing fuses or placing fuses in the
bypass position as sparks may occur.

NETWORK CONFIGURATION
CZone modules communicate with each other over a NMEA2000 CAN BUS network. Each module needs a unique
address, this is achieved by carefully setting the dipswitch on each module with a small screwdriver. The dipswitch on
each module must match the setting in the CZone configuration. Refer to CZone Configuration Tool Manual on
instructions on creating and editing a CZone configuration.
•To install the OI with other networked CZone modules, or to achieve advanced functionality such as
timers, load shedding or one touch Modes of operation, a custom configuration needs to be installed.
•Set the dipswitch on the OI to match the configuration file.
•All other CZone modules must have the dipswitch set to same as the configuration file.
The example below shows a dipswitch setting of 01101100 where 0 = OFF and 1 = ON
Setting Dipswitch
IMPORTANT - Each CZone device must have a unique dipswitch number and the dipswitch of the device
must match the dipswitch set in the configuration file.

MODULE IDENTIFICATION LABEL
These labels allow easy identification of each module whilst recording the dipswitch setting. These labels are to be
fitted to the cover and to the module (this prevents covers being swapped). To record the module type and dipswitch
settings use a permanent marker and strike through the applicable boxes (a strike through on a dipswitch box indicates
that switch is on).
FIT THE COVER
1. Slide the cable gland up the output wires ensuring it is correctly seated.
2. Firmly push the top cover on to the OI until you hear it click into pace on each side.
3. Ensure the cable gland is still correctly in place.
4. Install circuit labels if you have purchased a label sheet.
WARNING!The OI is only ignition protected with the cover correctly installed.
INITIAL POWER UP
1. Power up the NMEA2000 Network, system will flash all outputs for a short time while booting.
2. Check that the Network Status LED lights up. It may also be flashing if other devices are on the network and
transmitting data.
3. Turn the switch/circuit breaker on supplying power to the input stud (if fitted).
4. Check the software version on the OI with the CZone Configuration Tool and update if necessary.
5. Write the configuration file to the network (Refer to the CZone Configuration Tool Instructions for details on how
to write a CZone configuration file).
6. Test all outputs for correctly configured functionality.
7. Check the circuit status LED’s for each individual circuit. Refer to LED codes to diagnose any faults which need
to be rectified.
