1 Introduction
1.1 Introduction
In the era of Ubiquitous Environment, many kinds of systems which use sensors like
temperature, humidity or pressure and controlling the power of remote devices have been
developing. CIE-H14 monitors those sensors and controls the remote devices. It detects
digital inputs from the sensors’outputs and controls the relay outputs. HTTP, Modbus/TCP,
serialized Modbus/TCP and Macro mode can be used for these functions. CIE-H14 is
additionally equipped with a RS232 serial interface to allow your serial devices to establish
an Ethernet networking connection so that it can be flexibly used in diverse applications.
1.2 Features
Remote I/O controller
4 Digital Input Ports (photo-coupler interface)
4 Digital Output Ports (relay interface)
Supports Modbus/TCP and HTTP
Stored Web server for simple management (custom web page)
MACRO (stand-alone operation supports simple logical expressions)
Stable embedded TCP/IP stack
Easy configuration program (ezManager)

1.6.2 Input Ports
Because each of CIE-H14’s input ports are isolated by photo-couplers, users don’t need
to be worried about the polarity. The circuit of the input port is shown in the figure below.
Figure 1-8 a circuit of the input port
The voltage specification of the input port is as follows:
Over 1.8V

Under 1.2V
L

Polarity
Auto Polarity
Table 1-3 the voltage specification of the input ports
The input port is interfaced with a 5mm terminal block. Thus, use a (-) shaped
screwdriver to connect it with the user device.
Types for giving input
The type of the input ports is a wet contact by photo-couplers, which needs two
wires with different voltage levels to make an input signal. Needed a dry contact, you
are allowed to use a DCA(Dry Contact Adapter) so that you can give an input signal
(ON or HIGH) with switch (relay) interface.
 The input ports are designed only for monitoring signals.

1.6.3 Output Ports
The output ports of CIE-H14 are interfaced to relays (Normal Open) as shown below.

The output port operates are as follows :

The allowed output ports’ electrical current of voltage conditions are as in the following:

DC 28V
5A
Table 1-5 voltage conditions of the output port
 Use a power relay, when users’ device uses AC or excesses the allowed maximum
current consumption.
 Use a (-) shaped screwdriver to connect it with users’ devices since the output ports
are interfaced with a 5mm terminal block,

1.6.4 RS232 Port (DB9M)
CIE-H14 has an RS232 port supporting from 300 bps to 230,400 bps. This port is for
connecting users’serial devices to Ethernet (TCP/IP) including the “Serialized Modbus/TCP”.

Telnet COM Port Control Option
CIE-H14 has Telnet COM Port Control Option function that is specified by RFC2217. It
plays a role of an access server. If the Telnet COM Port Control Option is enabled,
CIE-H14 sends the CTS, DSR control signal to the communication counterpart, and
sets its serial port items (RTS, DTR, Baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bit) after getting
information from the communication counterpart.
1.6.5 Ethernet Interface
An RJ45 connector is for the network interface of CIE-H14. You can use a UTP cable. It
automatically senses 10Mbits or 100Mbits Ethernet. It also provides auto MDI/MDIX
function that can automatically sense a 1:1 cable or cross over cable.
Each Ethernet device has its own hardware address (MAC address). CIE-H14 is shipped to
the market with the hardware address set in the factory.

1.6.7 ISP Switch
There is an ISP switch located on the back of the product. It is a switch allowing CIE-H14
to operate in the serial configuration mode or ISP mode. If you press it between 20ms and
1s, CIE-H14 will go into the serial configuration mode that you can configure the
environment parameters through the RS232 port. If you press it over a second or supply
power while pressing it, CIE-H14 will be operated as the ISP mode. In this mode, you can
download the firmware file or HTML files.
Figure 1-12 ISP switch
 In the ISP and serial configuration mode, you are allowed to reset a password or cancel
access restriction. Use these modes when you are faced with the problems.

2 Installation and Test
2.1 Installation
In this section, we explain the way of CIE-H14 operation through a test. Basically, its input
and output ports are independently used. Thus, you can use either the input ports only for
monitoring or the output ports only for control. However, you can also correlatively use
those ports by using the MACRO mode on the output ports.
Before testing CIE-H14, you should connect the Ethernet port to a PC. It will be no
problem if the Ethernet connection is established through network hubs.
Figure 2-1 the connection between CIE-H14 and a PC
2.1.1 Setting Network Aera
This step is for setting both CIE-H14 and your PC to be located on the same network to
establish a TCP connection.
Setting of the PC
Add or change the IP address of the network adapter on your PC.
Click [Windows Control Panel] >> [Network Connections] and right click of your
mouse to get into [Properties of the Network Adapter], then you will see the
properties of [Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)]. Press the [Advanced Menu] button and add
an IP Address as shown below.

Setting of CIE-H14
ezManager is the management tool for parameters of CIE-H14. This application is
only for MS Windows and this is comfortable to use because it does not need
installation process.
First, search your CIE-H14 via network. All the values of parameters are set to the
default values in the factory. To apply it to your system, proper values should be set
via ezManager.
Default values of some major parameters are listed on the table below. To do the
following simple test, keep these values during the test.
