The IQ Controller’s functionality can be divided into three sections, strategy, firmware, and hardware.

holes will need to be drilled. The IQ111+ and IQ131+ also had
semicircular cutouts for mounting in the old small box (380 x 380

LK/15V Regulated 15 V supply at 20 mA LKE/15V
LK/10mA Regulated 10 mA supply LKE/10mA

As can be seen from the above table, most of the applications requiring link headers are either achieved by the three new link headers,
or by appropriate input channel linking. The LK/E has no replacement but was rarely used.

Integral nodes:
A node controller board may be fitted inside the IQ23x. The IQ23x may be ordered with a board pre-fitted, or it may be post-fitted
using the KIT/NODE/IQ23x. The node may be one of the current range of boards (CNC2, PNC2, INC2, TMNH, TMNE, LINC, XN28),
or it may be one of the older nodes (CNC, PNC, INC, MNC, ANC, AND, XNC, XN28, ENC).

Note that the IQ131 did not have a CNC built in to its firmware so that if the IQ131 was to be networked, it required a CNC to be
fitted which was connected directly to the IQ131 via RS232. Alternatively, a stand-alone IQ131 could have a modem connected
via an ANC or MNC, either of which was also connected directly to the IQ131 via RS232. If an IQ131 is replaced by an IQ23x its
CNC is redundant, and if an integral modem node (e.g. ANC, MNC) were fitted, it would now be connected to the controller via the
network, not by RS232 as previously. The IQ111, 111+, and 131+ all had a CNC built in to the firmware so this note does not apply
to them.

A CNC was sometimes used for local supervisor or NDP network connection; these can now be connected via the local supervisor
port. The local supervisor port also supplies 24 Vdc to the NDP.

Cables: The KIT/NODE/IQ23x contains the cables which are required to connect a node to the IQ23x

In IQ1xx controllers, if a sensor (whose number is greater than

the number of real input channels) is set to internal digital mode,
it will take the value from an internal digital node and write it to its
corresponding analogue and digital nodes. This feature was
removed on the IQ2xx series. If this feature was used in the
strategy then Bit 506,1 should be set to 1 to cause the sensor
module to operate in the same mode as IQ1xx controllers. Setting
the bit to zero restores IQ2xx mode.

FIELD MAINTENANCE
The IQ Controller requires virtually no routine maintenance, however it is recommended that the lithium battery be replaced every 5 years,
as explained in the IQ23x Installation Instructions, TG200539, Sheet 3, Options.

DISPOSAL
COSHH ASSESSMENT FOR DISPOSAL OF IQ CONTROLLER. The only part affected is the lithium battery which must be disposed
of in a controlled way.

RECYCLING. All plastic and metal parts are recyclable. The printed circuit board may be sent to any PCB recovery contractor
to recover some of the components for any metals such as gold and silver.

INSTALLATION
The IQ23x Controller is installed in a panel, using 4 screws and washers. The procedure involves:

mount the controller in position

connect power, do not power up
connect the network
terminate the I/O, leave unconnected
connect the auxiliary supply output, if used
connect any input or output interfaces
specify network address and baud rate
install any link headers
perform input channel linking
disconnect I/O, network
power up
check network
configure the strategy
check operation
connect outputs
test system
backup configuration

This installation procedure, is covered by the IQ23x Installation Instructions, TG200539. Sheets 1 and 2 cover Fixing and Configuration
respectively. Sheet 3, Options, covers fitting an external 2-line display panel (if KIT/2xx/RDS is already fitted), connecting an external
NDP or local PC, mounting an IQ23x in an enclosure (ENCLS/), Replacing the battery, and the Zero Address Baud Rate Switch Reset.
Replacing IQ111 (+), 131 (+) is covered by Sheets 4 to 7 respectively, and moving an integral node from an IQ111,(+), 131 (+) to an IQ23x
is covered by Sheets 8 and 9.
