6.7 c.pCOe expansion board: installation
and configuration
c.pCOe is an I/O expansion module compatible with the c.pCO and pCO
sistema platforms. The module features:
10 universal inputs/outputs that can be congured in the
application program to connect active and passive probes, digital
inputs, analogue and PWM outputs.
6 relay digital outputs, divided into 3 groups (see paragraph 5.7)
Power supply terminals for ratiometric probes and active probes
Built-in BMS serial interface
Dipswitches for conguring the communication protocol and serial
address

Note: the green LED indicates communication status on the BMS
port. If there is communication on the BMS port (online) the green LED
ashes, if there is no communication (oine) the LED stays on steady.
Important: Power supply to the product must only be connected
between G and G0. The Vbat terminal is only used for connection to the
Ultracap module as emergency power supply in the event of a power
failure.
The dipswitches can be used to set the expansion board serial address
(from 1 to 15), protocol (Modbus or Carel) and baud rate. By serial
connection it is possible to modify the electrical conguration of the line
and assign a serial address from 16 to 247 (207 if using the Carel protocol).
Baud rate and communication protocol settings
Board default conguration is baud rate 19.2 Kbps and Modbus protocol.
The “Baud” and “Prot” dipswitches (see Fig. 6.u) can be used to set the baud
rate and the communication protocol used by the expansion board. The
unit must be switched o before making the settings on the dipswitches.
Important: if the baud rate and protocol settings are changed on
the dipswitches while the unit is on, this must be restarted to activate the
new settings.
Address and serial communication mode settings
To assign to the board a serial address from 1 to 15, simply set the
dipswitches as shown in Figure 6.u. The “Ext” dipswitch must be set to
“OFF” (no oset). The unit must be switched o before making the
settings on the dipswitches.
Important: if the settings are changed on the dipswitches while
the unit is on, this must be restarted to activate the new settings.
To assign to the the board a serial address from 16 to 247 and to congure
the serial communication settings, an oset needs to be sent to the
expansion board via serial communication, which is then added to the
Address dipswitch conguration, and the variable corresponding to the
serial transmission parameters needs to be set, as follows:
Example (address setting N=87, serial communication 8, Even, 1):
1. Set the dipswitches of the Address” group and the dipswitch “Ext.
a OFF.
2. Restart the unit. The c.pCOE will go into “Set Mode”. Warning:
activating this mode resets both the address oset and the serial
communication settings. In this mode, the board serial address will
be 207 and the serial conguration will be 8 bits, no parity and 2 stop
bits (8 bits, None, 2). The yellow LED ashes.
3. To set the communication parameters, the “Serial Transmission
Conguration variable needs to be set via serial communication
(see Table 6.a and 6.b). In this example, the variable is set to 5
(conguration 8, Even, 1).
4. To set the serial address, the Address Extension oset variable needs
to be set via serial communication (the oset must be greater than
14, see Table 6.a). In this example, it can be set to 86.
5. Move the “Ext dipswitch to ON. Set the Address” dipswitches to a
value greater than 0. In this example, the value is set to 1.
6. Restart the unit. After restarting, the expansion card will be
congured with the serial address calculated as the sum of the value
set for the Address Extension variable and the value set on the
Address dipswitches (in this example 86 + 1 = 87). After restarting,
the expansion card will have the serial communication conguration
8, Even, 1.

Important:
If using the Carel protocol, the maximum settable oset is 192.
The following congurations are not allowed:
- The “Ext dipswitch cannot be ON with an oset equal to 0 (“Address
Extension” variable = 0). In this case, the card will signal a conguration
error, with the yellow LED on steady. The green LED remains on,
indicating that the card is oine.
- The “Ext dipswitch cannot be ON with an oset other than 0 and
the Address” dipswitches set to 0 (all OFF). In this case, the card will
signal a conguration error, with the yellow LED ashing. The green
LED remains on, indicating that the card is oine.
