Mounting Location inside the panel
Radonix Control Card Mounting Radonix control cards feature durable plastic protective housings with specialized bases for DIN-rail mounting inside the electrical cabinet. The placement of the control card relative to other components in the cabinet is critical. Inverters, drives, and high-voltage cables all act as noise sources, so it’s essential to keep the control card […]

Introduction
Please verify the following items after receiving your package: Make sure that the product you ordered matches what you received, and verify that the serial number on the control unit matches the one you were sold. Also inspect the control unit for any damage—ensure the board isn’t cracked and no components are missing or broken. […]

Power Supply DC24V, DC0V Main power input for the control board. See section 2.2.2 for details. Digital Inputs Input Connector Used for external control signals. See section 2.2.3 for details. Digital Outputs Output Connector […]
Connection to PC
Radonix PC-Smart series control boards communicate with the PC entirely over Ethernet using the TCP/IP protocol. You can use standard CAT 5 or CAT 6 patch cables up to 30 meters in length. The pinout for both ends of the cable is shown in Figure 2. Note: Route the Ethernet cable away from high-voltage wiring and […]
Power Supply
📘 Radonix control boards connect to the power supply via a 3-pin connector.The +24 V pin must be tied to the positive rail, and the GND pins to the negative rail. There are two GND pins—both are common internally—so you only need to connect the negative rail to either one. The board’s positive input is diode-protected against reverse polarity. […]
Digital Inputs
Digital Inputs Overview Radonix control boards’ digital inputs are labeled I[nn], where nn is a positive integer indicating the input number. These inputs are opto-isolated (≈3 kΩ impedance) for low-noise operation. Figures 5 & 6 show the internal wiring for NPN (sink/low-active) and PNP (source/high-active) modes, respectively: Figure 5 – NPN vs. PNP input wiring Configuration lives under:Setting […]
Digital Outputs
Digital Outputs Overview Radonix control boards’ digital outputs are labeled O[nn], where nn is a positive integer indicating the output number. Each output is protected against short-circuits and overcurrent (≈300 mA max per output on PC-Pro; ≈1 A on PC-Smart). On fault, the red O-Error LED lights and all outputs are disabled—never tie outputs together or use them to drive high-current loads […]
Analog Inputs
Analog Inputs Radonix PC-Smart control boards include analog inputs labeled A[n] (where n is a positive integer). Each input accepts a voltage from 0 V up to 10 V. Input Circuit Below is the internal wiring diagram for the analog inputs on PC-Smart models:
Analog outputs and Wideband Modulation
Radonix’s PC-Smart series models feature analog outputs. These outputs are referred to as “Analog Out [n]” or “A[n],” where n represents a number greater than or equal to zero. Analog outputs provide a continuous voltage between 0 and 10 volts. ⚠️ These outputs are protected against short circuits to the negative terminal of the power […]
