Rear Panel Components
The following sub-sections describe each component on the rear panel of the 3000-series ControlPads. Refer to
Overview section on page 11 for the component layout of the rear panels of each type of NOVARA 3000-series
ControlPad.
Power
The NOVARA 3000-series ControlPads features a 2-pin Phoenix connector accepting 12V
DC
power.
RS-232
The NOVARA 3000-series ControlPads features up to two RS-232 connector ports so you can connect up to two serial
devices to the ControlPad. The serial connectors comply with EIA-232-F signal levels. The RX line supports polling for
RS-232 devices for statuses such as power status, input status, and lamp hours, so that this information can be provided
to RMS.
Input voltage is as follows:
V
IH
> +2.7 V
