4 Connecting the MIO I/O Module
Inspect the device to locate the various ports and connectors. (See Figure 1.)
Figure 1: MIO Device Connections
The power terminals shown in Figure 1 must be connected to an industrial power supply, or other 1030VDC source. Although the unit is designed to work with a standard 24VDC industrial supply, it will also
work with a 12VDC supply. The input voltage needs to be between 10VDC and 30VDC, so any supply
within this range should be suitable. The selected power source must be regulated and stabilized to
assure reliable performance.
NOTE: No power supply is included with the MIO module. However, power supplies are available, and a
suitable unit can be added as an accessory.
Connect the positive lead of the power supply to the screw terminal marked “V+” and the negative or
ground lead to the terminal marked “V- “. Please make sure not to reverse the polarity. The unit has a
reverse polarity protection built in. However, the unit will not power up if the polarity is reversed.
Under full load conditions, the unit draws about 0.125A (3W). This does not include the current needed
to supply the digital outputs. The digital outputs can source 0.5A each, but will not exceed 1.0A total for
all outputs

MoviTHERM MIO-FCR-1 Manual
You can connect the Ethernet RJ-45 port directly to the camera, however it is recommended that you
connect it to a camera network or an Ethernet switch, particularly if you have multiple MIO units and
multiple cameras. You will also need to connect the MIO unit to a PC or laptop for configuring the unit.
Connecting the MIO, the camera, and the PC to an Ethernet switch permits you to configure both the
camera and the MIO module at the same time.
Connect the 4-20mA analog outputs to any device with 4-20mA signal inputs, such as industrial PLCs, 420mA data loggers, 4-20mA signal monitoring/alarm devices, etc. Keep in mind that from the
perspective of the MoviTHERM MIO I/O module, these are outputs. The 4 to 20mA outputs are active, or
loop powered. This indicates that they will provide a loop voltage to the connected device. No additional
power source is necessary or should be added. Make sure to observe the connection polarity of the 4 to
20mA device.
Connect the digital outputs to discrete signal inputs on alarms, warning lamps, auto-dialers, PLCs, etc.
For more details on how to connect devices, please go to Section 7.1 – I/O Connections.
Any number of connection scenarios are possible using the MIO signal outputs. Figure 2 illustrates a
typical installation scenario, and offers some examples of the types of industrial devices that can be
connected to the MIO.

6 System Installation and Set-up
The MoviTHERM MIO Series of Intelligent I/O modules are built into rugged ABS plastic enclosures. The
ABS enclosures are intended to protect the internal electronics for general handling and from minor
impact, but are not designed to protect the device from harsh industrial environments, or exposure in
outdoor installations. Like most industrial devices of this nature, the MIO I/O module is intended to be
mounted inside an existing electrical cabinet or other protective enclosure.
The MIO I/O Module is rated NEMA1 / IP20
Enclosures are constructed for indoor use. They provide a degree of protection to personnel against
incidental contact with the enclosed equipment and to provide a degree of protection against falling
dirt. Internal electronics are protected against solid foreign objects of 12mm in diameter and greater.
The device is NOT protected against water.
The MIO I/O module is not protected against ingress of dust, conductive particles, moisture
or liquid splashing.
For installations in dirty, dusty, hot, wet, freezing or otherwise harsh or hazardous areas,
provisions must be made to adequately protect the MIO I/O module.

MoviTHERM MIO-FCR-1 Manual
Please do not stick any tools or metal objects inside the MIO module. This may create an
electrical shortcut and permanently damage the unit. This will also void the warranty.
For indoor industrial or outdoor environments, we recommend placing the MIO I/O module inside an
electrical enclosure rated at least NEMA4 or NEMA4x. No cooling is required, provided the inside
temperature of the protective enclosure does not exceed the max allowable operating temperature of
the MIO module. If the expected internal enclosure temperature may exceed the max operating
temperature, active cooling is recommended to ensure trouble-free operations.
To ensure proper operation and continuing reliability, all set-up and configuration tasks should be
completed by qualified engineers or service technicians. The information in this manual provides some
direction, but should not be considered a substitute for extensive experience.
If you are unsure how to proceed, contact your distributor or MoviTHERM technical
support (support@movitherm.com
) for further direction. Please include the serial number
of your MoviTHERM MIO unit. Alternatively, visit the MoviTHERM Website
www.movitherm.com and use the contact methods provided on the contact page.
6.1 Configuration Procedure
After the electrical connections have been made and verified, it is time to configure the camera and the
MoviTHERM MIO device. FLIR FC-R Series cameras are configured using the camera’s built in web server.
(Additional information about configuring the FLIR camera can be found in the camera documentation.)
The MIO device is configured using the browser-based MoviTHERM MIO Configuration Utility, as
discussed later in the manual.
System Configuration is a four step process:
1) Set the camera to a fixed IP addresses using the camera’s built-in web browser interface.
2) Set up the inspection regions (Regions of Interest or “ROIs”) using the camera’s built it web
browser interface.
3) Define the thresholds and action criteria for each ROI using the browser-based MoviTHERM
MIO Configuration Utility.
4) Configure the MIO board response using the MoviTHERM MIO Configuration Utility.

MoviTHERM MIO-FCR-1 Manual
Steps 3 & 4 cannot be completed until Steps 1 and 2 are complete. Step 1 requires the
FLIR® FC-Series R camera’s built-in web browser interface. Step 2 is also completed using
the built-in web interface. This application is deployed using any standards-compliant
Internet web browser (Microsoft Edge, IE, Google Chrome, Firefox). Steps 3 & 4 also use
the web browser interface to access the MoviTHERM MIO Configuration Utility.
Configuring the FC-Series R camera’s “ROIs” (Regions of Interest) also requires the
camera’s built in web browser. Consult the appropriate FLIR camera user manual for more
details on how to setup the camera.
6.1.1 IP Configuration
It is important to understand that although the MIO device and the cameras share a single Ethernet
connection, the camera, the MIO device, and the computer (PC) used to configure the system must have
separate and unique TCP/IP addresses. The camera, MIO, and PC must also be configured to use a static
IP addresses. Use the FC-Series R camera’s built-in web browser interface to set the IP address.
The MoviTHERM MIO Configuration Utility will be used to set up the IP address on the MIO device (as
discussed in the next chapter).
IP SUBNET CONFIGURATION - IMPORTANT NOTE:
The camera, the MIO device, and the PC must each be assigned a unique IP address. However,
in order to share the same Ethernet cable connection, all of the IP addresses must reside within
the same subnet. This is most easily accomplished by ensuring that the 1
address fields are common for all devices, while the 4
th
field is unique for each device.
st
, 2nd, and 3rd IP
For example, the default IP address for the MIO device is defined as follows:
MIO IP address: 192.168.1.2
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
If this default is left unchanged, suitable camera IP addresses might be:
Camera IP address 1: 192.168.1.3
Camera IP address 2: 192.168.1.4
Camera IP address 3: 192.168.1.89 (etc.)
If the MIO device IP is modified (as outlined later in this document), the camera and PC IP
addresses may need to be updated accordingly.
