Introduction
Thank you for choosing a Pixsys instrument.
The MCM260X modules are a series of digital/analog expansions for PLC that implement the Modbus
RTU protocol with RS485 interface or the CANopen protocol.
There are 6 versions of the expansion module, in continuous voltage for the models MCM260X-1AD,
MCM260X-2AD, MCM260X-3AD, MCM260X-9AD, while for the models with relay outputs or analog
inputs/outputs MCM260X-4AD, MCM260X-5AD operation is required in low continuous and alternating
voltage.
1 Safety guidelines

connecting/using the device.
Disconnect power supply before proceeding to hardware settings or electrical wirings to avoid risk of
electric shock, fire, malfunction.
Do not install/operate the device in environments with flammable/explosive gases.
This device has been designed and conceived for industrial environments and applications that rely
on proper safety conditions in accordance with national and international regulations on labour
and personal safety. Any application that might lead to serious physical dama ge/ life risk or involve
medical life support devices should be avoided.
Device is not conceived for applications related to nuclear power plants, weapon systems, flight
control, mass transportation systems.
Only qualified personnel should be allowed to use device and/or service it and only in accordance to
technical data listed in this manual.
Do not dismantle/modify/repair any internal component.
Device must be installed and can operate only within the allowed environmental conditions.
Overheating may lead to risk of fire and can shorten the lifecycle of electronic components.
1.1 Organization of safety notices
Safety notices in this manual are organized as follows:
Safety notice Description
Danger! Disregarding these safety guidelines and notices can be life-threatening.
Warning! Disregarding these safety guidelines and notices can result in severe injury or
substantial damage to property.
Information! This information is important for preventing errors.
1.2 Safety Precautions
Danger!
CAUTION - Risk of Fire and Electric Shock
This product is UL listed as DIN-rail mounting process control equipment. It must be
mounted in an enclosure that does not allow fire to escape externally.
Danger!
If the output relays are used past their life expectancy, contact fusing or burning may
occasionally occur.
Always consider the application conditions and use the output relays within their
rated load and electrical life expectancy. The life expectancy of output relays varies
considerably with the output load and switching conditions.
Warning!
Devices shall be supplied with limited energy according to UL 61010-1 3rd Ed, section
9.4 or LPS in conformance with UL 60950-1 or SELV in conformance with UL 60950-1
or Class 2 in compliance with UL 1310 or UL 1585.
Warning!
Loose screws may occasionally result in fire.
For screw terminals, tighten screws to tightening torque is 0.5 Nm for 5 mm Pitch
terminal blocks or 0.25 Nm for 3.81 mm Pitch terminal blocks.

8 - MCM260X - Manuale d’uso
Warning!
A malfunction in the Digital Controller may occasionally make control operations
impossible or prevent alarm outputs, resulting in property damage. To maintain
safety in the event of malfunction of the Digital Controller, take appropriate safety
measures, such as installing a monitoring device on a separate line.
1.3 Precautions for safe use
Be sure to observe the following precautions to prevent operation failure, malfunction, or adverse
affects on the performance and functions of the product. Not doing so may occasionally result in
unexpected events. Do not handle the Digital Controller in ways that exceed the ratings.
• The product is designed for indoor use only. Do not use or store the product outdoors or in any of
the following places.
- Places directly subject to heat radiated from heating equipment.
- Places subject to splashing liquid or oil atmosphere.
- Places subject to direct sunlight.
- Places subject to dust or corrosive gas (in particular, sulfide gas and ammonia gas).
- Places subject to intense temperature change.
- Places subject to icing and condensation.
- Places subject to vibration and large shocks.
• Installing two or more controllers in close proximity might lead to increased internal temperature
and this might shorten the life cycle of electronic components. It is strongly recommended to
install cooling fans or other air-conditioning devices inside the control cabinet.
• Always check the terminal names and polarity and be sure to wire properly. Do not wire the
terminals that are not used.
• To avoid inductive noise, keep the controller wiring away from power cables that carry high voltages
or large currents. Also, do not wire power lines together with or parallel to Digital Controller
wiring. Using shielded cables and using separate conduits or ducts is recommended. Attach a
surge suppressor or noise filter to peripheral devices that generate noise (in particular motors,
transformers, solenoids, magnetic coils or other equipment that have an inductance component).
When a noise filter is used at the power supply, first check the voltage or current, and attach the
noise filter as close as possible to the Digital Controller. Allow as much space as possible between
the Digital Controller and devices that generate powerful high frequencies (high-frequency
welders, high-frequency sewing machines, etc.) or surge.
• A switch or circuit breaker must be provided close to device. The switch or circuit breaker must be
within easy reach of the operator, and must be marked as a disconnecting means for the controller.
• Wipe off any dirt from the Digital Controller with a soft dry cloth. Never use thinners, benzine,
alcohol, or any cleaners that contain these or other organic solvents. Deformation or discoloration
may occur.
• The number of non-volatile memory write operations is limited. Therefore, use EEprom write mode
when frequently overwriting data, e.g.: through communications.
• The device must be protected by:
MCM260X-1AD: 4A Fast Fuse (F)
MCM260X-2AD: 1A Fast Fuse (F)
MCM260X-3AD: 4A Fast Fuse (F)
MCM260X-4AD: 1A Fast Fuse (F)
MCM260X-5AD: 1A Fast Fuse (F)
MCM260X-9AD: 5A Fast Fuse (F)
• The MCM260X series does not require ventilation.
1.4 Environmental policy / WEEE
Do not dispose electric tools together with household waste material.
According to European Directive 2012/19/EU on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its
implementation in accordance with national law, electric tools that have reached the end of their life
must be collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility.

4.1 Electric connections
Caution! This regulator was designed and built in compliance with the Low Voltage 2014/35/UE
(LVD) and Electromagnetic compatibility 2014/30/UE (EMC) Directives. For installation in industrial
environments it is advisable to take the precautions below:
• Distinguish the power supply line from the power lines.
• Avoid proximity with contactor units, electromagnetic contactors, high power motors and use
filters in any event.
• Avoid proximity with power units, particularly if with phase control.
• The use of network filters is recommended on the power supply of the machine in which the
instrument will be installed, particular in case of 230Vac power supply.
The regulator is devised to be assembled with other machines. Therefore, the EC marking of
the regulator does not exempt the manufacturer of the system from the safety and conformity
obligations imposed for the machine as a whole.
• Wiring of 3.81 mm terminal block: use crimped tube terminals or flexible/rigid copper wire with
diameter up to 1.5 mm² / 16 AWG. Cable stripping lenght max 7 mm. Operating temperature: -40°C
÷ +130°C.
• Wiring of 5 mm terminal block: use crimped tube terminals or flexible/rigid copper wire with
diameter up to 2.5 mm² / 14 AWG. Cable stripping lenght max 9 mm. Operating temperature: -40°C
÷ +130°C.
• It is possible to connect on a single terminal two wires with same diameter comprised between 0.14
and 0.75mm2.

5 Device SET-UP
To be used as I/O module, the MCM260X needs a configuration procedure to set the correct parameters
that manage the communication. This configuration procedure may be run through the terminal
(display and keys) or via the MyPixsys app. Below is the procedure to change the parameters via the
terminal.
5.1 Numeric indicators (internal display)
The internal display, in combination with the pushbuttons §, ¶and |is
used to configure the module. In the power on phase the display shows the
firmware version while in normal operation, in the absence of anomalies, the
display remains off. In case of anomalies it shows the number of the active
error. In the configuration phase it shows the parameter being entered.

5.4 Changing to the configuration parameters from the
MyPixsys app
Scan the Qr-Code
to download the app
from Google Play Store®
The MCM260X modules are supported by the MyPixsys App and through an Android™ smartphone
with NFC antenna you can configure the instruments without the need for wiring and without the
aid of dedicated hardware. The App allows you to read, view and change the parameters related to
addressing and communication. It can also save them, send them by email, restore them from previous
backups or restore them to factory values.
Procedure:
• Identify the position of the NFC antenna in the phone (usually centrally, behind the rear cover, or at
one of the ends in case of metal chassis). The MCM260X antenna is located at the front, below the
symbol .
• Make sure that the NFC sensor of the phone is enabled and that there are no metal materials
between the telephone and the instrument (e.g. aluminum cover or cover with magnetic stand)
• It may also be useful to enable the system sounds on the phone, since the notification sound
confirms the successful detection of the instrument by the phone.
The initial screen of the App shows a bar with four tabs: SCAN, DATA, WRITE, EXTRA.
Move to the first SCAN tab to read the data already present on the instrument; the phone must be
put into contact with the front of the module, making sure that the position of the phone antenna
coincides with that of the instrument as much as possible.
The App emits a notification sound as soon as the presence of the instrument is detected and then
identifies the model and reads the set of parameters.
The graphic interface shows the progress of the procedure and moves to the second DATA tab.
You can now move the smartphone away from the instrument and make the changes requested more
comfortably. The parameters of the instruments are broken down into collapsible groups and are
displayed with name, current value and index of reference to the manual. Click the row in line with
the parameter to open the relevant setting screen, displaying the available options in detail (in case
of multiple choice parameters) or the minimum/maximum/decimal limits (for numeric parameters),
including the text description. Once the desired value is set, the relevant row is updated and
highlighted in the DATA tab (keep pressed above the row to cancel the changes).
To download the changed modification in the device move to the third WRITE tab, position the phone
again in contact with the instrument as you did for the reading mode and wait for the notification of
operation complete.
After writing the parameters, the MCM260X will run a restart procedure, needed to update the
configuration with the changes just written.
In addition to the operation for read -> change -> write parameters, MyPixsys App also provides
additional functionalities that can be accessed from the EXTRA tab, like saving / uploading and
sending via email of the entire configuration and the reset to factory values of the device.
