E2’s Serial Configuration is the centralized location
where all communication ports (COM ports) may be set up
in the E2 controller. To support the increasing number of
third-party devices that E2 can communicate with, E2 has
the expanded flexibility of dynamic COM ports that will
support different types of communication protocols to
meet the specific needs of the user.

This card adds two user-programmable digital outputs
and two digital inputs to enable connection of switches
and relays (relay contacts are rated at 3A up to 24 VAC).

Plug-In Four-Channel
Internal Repeater
The four-channel repeater (P/N 638-4830) boosts sig-
nal strength on Echelon Networks. However, the four-
channel repeater is also useful as a means of connecting
the E2 to its associated devices using more than one daisy
chain.
channel repeater is also useful as a means of connecting
the E2 to its associated devices using more than one daisy
chain.
With a four-channel repeater mounted in the E2, you
can run as many as three daisy chain segments out into the
field, each of which can be as long as the prescribed Eche-
lon maximum wire length. The fourth channel of the
repeater can be used to connect other E2s in a separate
daisy-chain, eliminating the need to run cable from the
field back to the next E2.
