Rear Panel Logic I/O Ports
iFlex remote controls, RMPC pc board adapters, and IR-3 Infrared Door Sensors have
IC’s in them that identify them to the iFlex. Connecting them is as simple as attaching a
CAT5 cable with RJ-45 connectors into the remote and any of the I/O ports of the iFlex.
Wiring diagrams for connecting analog devices to an RMPC pc board adapter is provided
on the RMPC pc board, and on the programming window of the Sonata hardware
programmer. For schematics on wiring analog devices directly to the I/O port via CAT5
cable, contact the factory.
I/O Ports: Channel Inputs and Outputs
At the point of connecting input and output modules to the iFlex mixer, all input and
output cards should have been pre-labeled and programmed. Connection to the iFlex is as
simple as identifying the proper incoming and outgoing cables, connecting the wires to
the corresponding I/O card and plugging the card into the iFlex chassis. Figure 3 shows
unwired I/O cards plugged into an iFlex chassis. It is extremely important to tighten the
holding screw on the I/O cards to the iFlex chassis. This not only holds the card firmly in
place, but the ground connection it makes is also a fundemental component of the
transient voltage protection built into the iFlex. I/O cards also provide an integral strain
relief feature in the pc board design.
