Product information for Moxa CP-118U-I:

The Moxa CP-118U-I is an 8-port universal PCI interface card designed for use in industrial automation systems, POS and ATM applications. The card enables connection of serial devices via the RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 standards and is compatible with host systems featuring 3.3 V and 5 V PCI as well as PCI-X buses. Support for multiple serial protocols in a single device makes it a flexible solution for various requirements in industrial environments.

Applications

The card is particularly suitable for applications in industrial automation, such as communication with controllers, sensors or machines. It is also used in Point-of-Sale systems and automated teller machines (ATM), where a reliable serial interface with high data rate and good signal integrity is required. Support for RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 allows integration of various devices using different serial interfaces.

Functions and Features in Detail

The CP-118U-I features eight serial ports, each equipped with a 128-byte FIFO (First In, First Out). This buffer size ensures that no data is lost at high data rates, as data is temporarily stored until processed by the host system. The card supports data rates from 50 bps to 921.6 kbps, sufficient for many industrial applications. Flow control is supported via hardware (RTS/CTS) and software (XON/XOFF), ensuring stable data transmission even with irregular data streams.

Technology Explained Simply

The serial signals include standard lines TxD, RxD, RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, DCD and GND for RS-232, as well as Tx±, Rx± and GND for RS-422 and RS-485. For RS-485, both 2-wire and 4-wire variants are supported, with the 4-wire variant providing separate transmit and receive lines. Full modem signal support enables control of external modems or other serial devices via DTR, DSR and DCD signals. The card is equipped with LEDs for transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) per port, allowing visual monitoring of operation.

Compatibility and Accessories

The card is certified for operating systems such as Windows (95 to 10, Server 2019), Linux (kernel 2.4 to 5.x) and various UNIX systems (QNX, SCO OpenServer, UnixWare 7, Solaris 10, FreeBSD). Optional models with 2 kV isolation and an extended temperature range of -40 to 85 °C are available, increasing suitability for extreme environments. Accessories include cables (DB9/DB25, M62 or M78, 1 m) and connection boxes (OPT8A/B/S/M9/RJ45), which facilitate installation and maintenance.

Mounting and Installation

The card is inserted into a PCI or PCI-X slot of a host computer. Physical dimensions are 82 x 135 mm, enabling use in standard PC enclosures. Connections are made via DB62 (standard) or DB78 (for isolation models). Installation requires no special tools; the card is mechanically inserted into the slot and configured via the operating system.

Operational Advantages

The high reliability of the card is underscored by an MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) of 1,073,385 hours for the CP-118U-I. Power supply is 240 mA (RS-232) or 300 mA (RS-422) at 5 VDC. Operating temperature for the standard model ranges from 0 to 55 °C, with an optional model available for an extended range of -40 to 85 °C. Humidity may range from 5 to 95 % (non-condensing). The card meets certifications EN 55032/35 (EMC), CISPR 32 and FCC Part 15B Class B (EMI), as well as IEC 61000-4-2 to -4-8 (EMS). Environmental standards such as RoHS, CRoHS and WEEE are also complied with. The delivery includes the card, a quick start guide, a substance declaration and a warranty card. The manufacturer’s warranty is 5 years.
