Electrical, connection, and capacity specifications for the InteliHive controller, as supported by current firmware.
Mechanical and environmental ratings — enclosure dimensions, ingress rating, and operating temperature — are not yet in this manual. Check the product label and data sheet.
|
|
| Input |
24 V DC, regulated — barrel jack or input terminals |
| Power fault threshold |
About 18 V DC. Below it the controller raises Power Fault (600) and switches off the Modbus bus supply. |
| USB-C |
Bench power and firmware work only. Does not power the Modbus bus or peripherals. |
Size the supply for the controller plus every device it powers. See Sizing the supply.
|
|
| Interface |
RS-485, two-wire |
| Role |
Master — the controller polls the devices |
| Bus supply |
Switched 24 V for port-powered devices, with fault detection and automatic fallback. See Port powered or externally powered. |
| Baud rates |
1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 (default), 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200 |
| Parity / stop bits |
None, Even (default), Odd / 1 (default) or 2 |
| Addresses |
1–247 |
| Function codes |
03 Read Holding Registers, 06 Write Single Register, 16 Write Multiple Registers (NextStep pump settings only) |

| Sensor supply (L+) |
24 V, switchable per port, current-limited with automatic retry |
| C/Q modes |
IO-Link, Digital In, Digital Out (500 mA current limit) |
| I/Q |
Digital input, available alongside any C/Q mode |
| Digital inputs |
Contact or pulse; NPN, PNP, or none; IEC 61131-2 Type 1 or Type 2/3 thresholds |
| Not supported |
IO-Link Data Storage (parameter backup/restore) and IO-Link events |
See IO-Link devices.

|
| Site network |
Connects as a client for the Inteliverse cloud and network time |
| Controller’s own network |
Access point for wireless output devices and phone setup. Default range 192.168.44.x, moved automatically if the site network overlaps. |
