To control the installation of an intelligent home, the heating system, etc., any Foxtrot basic module can be used. Individual basic module types vary in the number and type of inputs and outputs, fitted internal communication interfaces and indications.
Selection of the basic module depends mainly on the application size (the number of peripheral modules on buses CFox, RFox and TCL2), its topology (placement of the basic module and, controlled systems in the installation, etc. ...) and on the controlled technologies (heat sources, their complexity, etc.).
E.g. if the system includes solar water heating, heat sources control, charging the storage tanks, etc., it is advantageous to use the basic CP-1006 or CP-1008 modules, which have a higher number of inputs for connecting temperature sensors, outputs for continuous speed control of circulation pumps and a direct input for the ripple control signal.
In applications where the basic module is located far from the controlled technology and where is a higher number of peripheral modules on CIB buses, it is preferable to use the CP-1000 basic module.
In extensive applications, where complex application software is expected, as well as multiple devices control via a communication interface, etc., it is recommended to use the CP-1001 basic module. This basic module has twice as much memory for the program and three times more for registers (application data) than the CP-1000. In terms of inputs and outputs, which are important properties for the project itself, both basic modules (the CP-1000 and the CP-1001) are identical.
The basic connection of the CP-1000 (CP-1001) without power backup is here, and with battery backup is here.
