Customers can build an extension cable to place the Front Panel in a remote location. The
extension cable must conform to the following specifications:
extension cable must conform to the following specifications:
• Wire Size: must be larger than 26 AWG.
• Connectors: must be 15-pin, standard D-sub male and female.
• maximum cable length is 10 meters.
NOTE: The XMCP and XFP connectors on the SmartController can be
interchanged without electrical damage. However, neither the Front
Panel nor the MCP will work properly unless they are plugged into the
correct connector.

Connecting Customer-Supplied Digital I/O Equipment
The SmartController contains two options for connecting Inputs and Outputs (IO). IO can
be hard-wired to the XDIO Connector and /or CAN network using the DeviceNet
connector.
be hard-wired to the XDIO Connector and /or CAN network using the DeviceNet
connector.
The XDIO connector on the SmartController provides 12 hard-wired inputs and 8
hard-wired outputs for Digital I/O connections. The signals are numbered 1001 through
1012 for the inputs and 1 through 8 for the outputs. All the signals have independent
source and ground connections. These inputs contain the four high speed inputs that are
used by the system for interrupts and latching. The outputs, although independent, have
a lower current rating of 100mA compared to 700mA for the extended outputs on the
sDIO (described in

information on digital I/O programming.
The DeviceNet connector on the SmartController is used to interface to a Controller Area
Network (CAN) using the DeviceNet protocol. See

CAUTION:
Do not modify the cable that is attached to the
MCP. This could cause unpredictable behavior from the
