The CXCM1 includes a web server that provides easy set up and monitoring using an Internet connection

with the standard Windows Internet Explorer browser.
The data-logging feature allows the user to capture data from multiple inputs, for AC/DC voltages,

load/battery current, cell voltages and temperatures (automatically for up to 16 user defined logs). Typical

applications of the CXCM1 logging include power system details, thermal performance of outdoor

enclosures, battery cell specifics, or mains variations captured by an AC voltage watchdog.
A built-in audio speaker sounds an intermittent tone during active alarms.
The input/output (I/O) board houses a series of terminal connections.

NOTE: Customer settings for the CXCM1 are provided separately in the system documentation package.
