TN0019 – Z1216 I/O and Z1204 Relay Module

Hardware Configuration

TN0019 - 28 March, 2011

Note: This TechNote is obsolete but continues to be available for users still

deploying the generation of I/O modules described herein. See the

TechNote Index for updates on I/O modules

Purpose:

This TechNote describes the hardware configuration of the Z1204S/U Relay module and the Z1216S/U

I/O Sensor and Control Module. These modules are components of Ctek's Automation Framework. The

Z1204S and Z1216S rely on two-wire RS485 communications and an external power source. The

Z1204U and Z1216U use USB communications for both control and power. These modules can be

managed from a Ctek SkyRouter by Ctek's Automation Control application or by a custom application.

Figure 1 shows an RS485 network connected to a SkyRouter. Ctek's I/O modules can be mixed and

matched with other Ctek or non-Ctek RS485 devices on a network. Each device must have an unique

address in the range of 01 - 255 decimal or 01 - FF hexadecimal.

Note - RS485 device address 00 is reserved for Ctek's PowerMinder and should not be used for other

devices.

A single USB I/O or relay controller can be directly connected and managed by a Ctek SkyRouter. Figure

2 depicts a USB I/O connection to a single USB controller. In addition, a USB network can be

constructed with a customer supplied USB hub as shown in Figure 3. Ctek also offers an isolated USB to

RS485 converter (Figure 4) that can be used to construct a network of up to 31 I/O modules. The isolated

converter provides 2.5KV of isolation between the network and the SkyRouter. USB I/O devices are

addressed by an 8-byte address pre-programmed at the factory. USB and RS485 devices can coexist on a

single SkyRouter.

Important Note - RS485 modules are addressed with on-board jumper plugs. USB modules come pre-

addressed from the factory. RS485 modules also require an external power supply for components and

importantly for a sensor reference voltage. USB modules obtain component power and reference voltage

from the power supplied by the USB connection. Pages 2 - 7 of this document are specific to RS485

modules. The remainder of the document is applicable to bothRS485 and USB modules.
