FX-2100 Universal Module Chassis (UMC)

The FX-2100 Universal Module Chassis (UMC) is the core component of the FX-2000 Flex Shield system. Powered by the ATmega-2560 MCU and easily programmed in the Arduino integrated development environment (IDE). Standard features include a galvanically isolated, overload protected, wide-input-voltage-range DC power supply, plugin positions for the FX-2150 AC UPS or FX-2180 Solar Electric Power Supply options, and multiple plugin positions for the FX-2000 series I/O and data-communications module options.

Installation mounting options include the FX-2110 Mounting Plate or customer furnished mounting plate/chassis. For additional information, see Section-I of the FX-2000 Flex Shield Installation and Operation manual.
