2.2.3. Microcomputer
The base of the radio data modem controlling microcomputer is represented by a 32-bit
processor with 1 MB of RAM, 512 kB of FLASH ROM and real time clock circuit with a back-up
power supply.
On one side, the microcomputer is connected to the radio data module via the modem
component; on the side of user interface, it is connected to circuits generating signals within the RS232
standard levels. The microcomputer provides for connection of up to three user interfaces via three
RS232 communication ports. All ports are terminated by RJ45 connectors marked COM1, COM2 a
COM3. All RS232 ports are protected against overvoltage incoming via data cable. If a device with
- 5- 7.2.2005
CDA70 Radio data modem Description of the CDA70 radio modem
RS485/422 interface is to be connected, a level converter suitable for the appropriate application can be
connected to the serial port. Different converters will be used in case of connection on a short distance
or in case galvanic separation is necessary. The modem's microcomputer can be set for necessary
control of the converter (RS485). To each interface, a device with different communication protocol can
be connected - i.e. the microcomputer can also work as a converter of protocols between individual
serial ports. The wide range of radio modem functions can be set via any of RS232 communication
ports.
In addition, the microprocessor manages numerous functions of servicing and installation
purposes. Apart from other important information, the microcomputer memory records data
transmission statistics, strength of signals from individual radio modems, statistics of communication on
individual serial ports, power failures, voltage of backup power source and temperature inside the radio
data modem. See Service manual for description of service functions.
Configuration of the CDA70 radio data modem is stored in the permanent FLASH ROM
memory. See the Configuration of radio modem chapter for description of its settings.

3.3. Measuring other CDA70 signals
3.3.1. Measuring the supply voltage
In CDA70, two more signals are evaluated. The first one is called NAP12 (DC SUPLY); it is an
internal one and it measures the supply voltage at the supply terminals of CDA70. The measuring range
is 0 to 20V. The supply voltage value influences the function of CDA70. If it drops under the set value,
the VF module is disconnected because its correct function is no longer secured and thereby, at the same
time, the discharge current of a backup battery (if used) is decreased.
The second one is NAP230 (AC SUPLY) linked to the supply connector (see the supply
connector description). The measuring range is 0 to 20V. The signal is protected against overvoltage by
a protective element, which blocks the voltage higher than 16V. NAP230 is designed for measuring of
network supply voltage presence. A change of the value is recorded into CDA70 statistics as a dropout
and start (rise) of the 230V supply voltage.
Beware - it is impossible to connect 230V supply voltage directly to the input!

NulTime On YES/NO The parameter affects output I/O signals. If set to (YES), the
value of outputs is correct, if its regular renewal is being
performed from a remote CDA70 in a shorter period than set in
the NulTime parameter. In case the module does not accept the
new output value within the time, the outputs are set to inactive
mode. The method protects connected technology in case of
unwanted communication failure.
In case the parameter is not set (NO), automatic zeroing of
outputs will not be applied.
Parameter function does not depend on the "Auto operation"
parameter setting.
COM 1 to 3 The parameter defines number of source module user interface
according to which source address will be included in the report.
Log. number 1 1 to 254 Destination address of the first user interface where CIO-
generated report will be sent.
Log. number 2 1 to 254 Destination address of the second user interface where CIO-
generated report will be sent.
MinTime [msec] 0 to 6553500 Time hysteresis after which CIO may generate new report The
shortest period for transmitting the reports.
MaxTime [msec] 0 to 6553500 Period after which CIO always generates the report, even when
there is no change of an active signal.
NulTime [sec] 0 to 2550 A timeout for regular setting of outputs. See the NulTime On
parameter.

The vendor is not responsible for keeping individual settings or data saved in the subject of the
complaint.
The customer is obliged to clarify the defect or how it is displayed and what claim he intends to
register.
Processing the complaint
The vendor shall provide free remedy depending on particular conditions, or replace the subject
of the complaint for a new product, or settle the matter in another manner in compliance with the Civil
Code and the Act on consumer's protection.
As of the moment the claim is registered by the customer and the subject of the complaint is
taken over by the vendor the guarantee period stops running. The guarantee period continues on the date
of takeover of the repaired subject of the complaint or replaced faultless product by the customer, or
should it not be taken over on the date the customer is obliged to take over the repaired or replaced
product. In case the vendor replaces the subject of the complaint for a new product, the original subject
of the complaint becomes property of the vendor and the new product becomes property of the
purchaser. New guarantee period starts from takeover of the new product. In cases when the vendor
settles the matter upon agreement with the customer by replacement of the subject of the complaint for a
faultless product, the new guarantee expires
1. after 12 months since the replaced product was taken over by the customer
2. on the date when the original guarantee period (subject of the complaint) would have
expired should it not have been replaced, whichever comes first.
