1.4 Rotary and DIP Switch
CA-IR-SH2251-5
The hardware Modbus address (Net ID) is decided by the rotary switch (ID = 1 ~
15) where ID = 0 makes IR-310-RM apply software Net ID (1 ~ 247). The DIP switch provides four mode of operation as follows.
Make sure that the rotary switch is at ID = 1 and DIP switch is in Normal mode for the subsequent manipulation.
1.5 Power Connection
IR-310-RM only supports +12 V
DC
. The power jack is at the rear of the module.
The accompanied FRA05-S12-SU is the power supply for IR-310-RM.

2. Configuration Tool for IR-310-RM
There are two ways to configure IR-310-RM: (1) IR utility; (2) Modbus FC100
Commands.
2.1 Configuration Utility–IR Utility (with IR-310-RM Utility)
Please get and install the setup file of IR utility (IR_Util_Setup_Vx_x_x_x.zip) from the accompanied CD or Web. The IR utility includes the IR-310-RM utility.
CD: \napdos\IR-310-RM\software\utility\
Web: ftp://ftp.icpdas.com/pub/cd/usbcd/napdos/ir-310-rm/software/utility/
Connect to IR-310-RM
The default communication settings of IR-310-RM are listed as follows.
Table 3: Default communication settings
Item Default value
Baud Rate 9600 bps
Parity/Databits/Stopbtis None/8/1
Modbus Net ID 1 (RSW ID = 1)
Launch IR utility and connect to IR-310-RM with the default communication setting. The window of IR-310-RM utility will appear after connection.

View and test the current relay outputs
Current states of 10 relays are indicated in the Relay Output section. Relay states can be changed by clicking the circles.
Click
Set interlocked mode
Interlocked mode and interlocked relay pairs can be set in the Relay Output section. Check/uncheck the checkboxes and click “Set” button to take effect the setting.
Communication Settings
This section provides the setting of baud rate and software Modbus Net ID.
Software Modbus Net ID is effective when the value of rotary switch is 0. Please reset the module after clicking the Set button to take effect the communication settings.
2.2 Modbus Commands for IR-310-RM
There are Modbus/RTU commands (FC01/FC05/FC15/FC100) for Modbus master devices to control and configure IR-310-RM. Please refer to Chapter 5 of the IR-
310-RM User Manual for the details.

3. Relay Control by the IR Remote
Please use an IR learning Remote (such as the accompanied L108E) to learn the
IR commands for IR-310-RM.
3.1 Test by L108E
By default, the IR learning remote L108E has stored 12 built-in IR commands as shown in Table 4 for the IR-310-RM with Net ID = 1. Users can press these buttons to test IR remote function immediately.

Please refer to the Appendix A of the IR-310-RM User Manual for the table of the built-in IR commands numbers. There are single-relay-controlled IR commands
(#204 ~ #223) in the table, too.
3.2 Steps to learn IR commands by an IR learning remote
A. Download IR-relay-states to IR-310-RM
Launch IR-310-RM utility and go to the section of the “Relay States
Corresponding to IR Cmds ”. IR-relay-state can be buffered in each item
(#=0~63) of the “IR Cmd No.” combobox by clicking the circles representing the
10 relays (RL0 ~ RL9). Click a circle ON/OFF means the relay ON(Normally open)/OFF(Normally closed).
‧Set button: Download the current IR-Relay-State to IR-310-RM.
‧Set All button: Download all buffered IR-Relay-States to IR-310-RM.

B. Emit IR commands for IR learning remote
Plug the IR emitter cable (CA-IR-SH-2251-5) in the jack of IR output. Aim the head of the IR emitter cable to the IR emitter of the learning remote (L108E). Go to the “Emit IR Remote Commands” section. Click the “Emit IR Command” to emit the IR command for the specified Net ID.
Learning IR Commands
C. IR Sensor selection
There are three selections of IR sensor sources can be set.
(1) On-board IR sensor: The sensor is located in the front panel.
(2) IR Receiver Cable: Use “IR Output” channel. CA-IR-001 needs to be plugged into the “IR Output” jack (3.5 mm audio jack).
(3) No sensor: Disable the IR remote function.
