2. G ENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The MultiCon CMC- /141 is a sophisticated multichannel unit which allows a
simultaneous measurement, visualisation and control of numerous channels. This device can
operate autonomously or in cooperation with external measurement devices and actuators.
Essential features of the MultiCon CMC- /141 are listed and briefly described below.
• Advanced processing unit and system based on LINUX
The powerful MultiCon CMC- /141 processor allows the device to run under the control
of a LINUX operating system. Such a solution makes the firmware flexible and gives the
possibility of a simultaneous operation of many processes (such as: measurement,
communication, visualisation). The use of LINUX also makes software independent of
installed hardware.
• Color TFT display with Touch-panel
The MultiCon CMC- /141 displays all data and dialogue on a legible, 320x240 pixels,
color TFT screen. Full control of the device is realised using the built-in touch-panel which
makes operating the MultiCon CMC- /141 easy and intuitive.
• Hardware flexibility and a large variety of possible configurations
MultiCon CMC- /141 is designed as a modular device consisting of a base and optional
input and output modules. The base contains:
– main processor,

• Full freedom of data sources, presentation modes and controlling methods
The multi level structure of the MultiCon CMC- /141 firmware allows to select presented
data sources, presentation modes and controlling methods. The MultiCon CMC- /141
displays the values of virtual logical channels which can be fed with:
– measurement data from built-in physical channels,
– measurement data from remote channels (other devices connected to the MultiCon
CMC- /141 by RS-485 interface),
– output states and quantities (looped back results of controlling processes),
– generate profiles/timers or also the mathematical combination of one or more
logical channels.
All of these can be freely named and described by the user, and presented in many
forms:
– as numerical values,
– vertical and horizontal charts,
– vertical and horizontal bars,
– as needle graphs.
Every logical channel (visualised or not) can be used as input data for one or more
controlling processes. The MultiCon CMC- /141 implements many different controlling
methods:
– above a defined level,
– below a defined level,
– within a defined range,
– out of a defined range,
– PID control.

unit in the mounting hole inserting it from the front side of the panel, and then
fix it using the brackets (Fig. 4.4). The minimum distances between the centre
points of multiple units - due to the thermal and mechanical conditions of
operation - are shown in Fig. 4.3.

Caution
- Installation should be conducted by qualified personnel. During installation all
available safety requirements should be considered. The fitter is responsible for
executing the installation in accordance with this manual, local safety and E C
regulations.
- The unit is not equipped with an internal fuse or power supply circuit breaker.
Because of this, an external time-delay cut-out fuse with a small nominal current
value must be used (recommended bipolar, max. 2A) and a power supply circuit-
breaker located near the unit (Fig. 4.6). In case of using a monopolar fuse it must
be mounted on the active wire (L).
- The power supply network cable diameter must be selected in such a way so that
in case of a short circuit of the cable from the side of the unit, the cable shall be
protected against destruction by an electrical installation fuse.
- Wiring must meet appropriate standards and local legal regulations and laws.
- In order to secure against accidental short circuit, the connection cables must be
terminated with appropriate insulated cable tips.

- Tighten the clamping screws. The recommended tightening torque is 0.5 Nm.
Loose screws can cause fire or defective operation. Over-tightening can lead to
damaging the connections inside the units and breaking the thread.
- In case of the unit fitted with separable clamps they should be inserted into
appropriate connectors in the unit, even if they are not used for any connections.
- Unused terminals (marked as n.c.) must not be used for connecting any
connecting cables (e.g. as bridges), because this can cause damage to the
equipment or electric shock.
- If the unit is equipped with a housing, covers and sealing to protect against water
intrusion, pay special attention to their correct tightening or clamping. In case of
any doubt consider using additional preventive measures (covers, roofing, seals,
etc.). Carelessly executed assembly can increase the risk of electric shock.
- After the installation is completed do not touch the unit’s connections when it is
switched on, because it brings the risk of electric shock.
Due to possible significant interference in industrial installations appropriate measures
assuring correct operation of the unit must be applied. To avoid, the unit of improper
indications, keep recommendations listed below.
Depending on version:
85...230...260V AC/DC or
19...24...50V DC; 16...24...35V AC
Fig. 4.6. Connection of power supply
• Avoid running signal cables and transmission cables together with power supply cables
and cables controlling inductive loads (e.g. contactors). Such cables should cross each
other at a right angle.
• Contactor coils and inductive loads should be equipped with interference protection
systems, e.g. RC-type.
• Use of screened signal cables is recommended. Signal cable screens should be
connected to the earthing only at one of the ends of the screened cable.
• In case of magnetically induced interference the use of twisted pair signal cables is
recommended. Twisted pair (best if shielded) must be used with RS-485 serial
transmission connections.
• If measurement or control signals are longer than 30m or go outside of the building, then
additional safety circuits are required.
• In case of interference from the power supply side, the use of appropriate interference
filters is recommended. Bear in mind that the connection between the filter and the unit
should be as short as possible and the metal housing of the filter must be connected to
the earth with the largest possible surface. The cables connected to the filter output must
not be run together with cables with interference (e.g. circuits controlling relays or
contactors).
