Specifications sourced from Prolon datasheet PL-DATA-M2000FLX-C/F-EN, REV 7.3.0. Verified September 18, 2026.
Overview
The M2000 FLX FlexIO is the general purpose member of the M2000 family. It is not tied to a specific piece of equipment or HVAC sequence, so it covers the outlying points a job needs after the dedicated controllers are placed: tank levels, gas readings, flow, speed, current, voltage, power, and more. Every input has its own configurable signal range and scaling, every output has its own logic, and inputs and outputs carry configurable names and display options. Outputs act on any local input or on data received from a network master.
Best For
- Points and equipment that do not fit a dedicated M2000 sequence
- Monitoring pressure, gas, flow, level, current, voltage, or power with mixed signal types
- Lighting control driven by up to 8 occupancy states from an NC2000
- Adding staged, interlocked, or lead-lag outputs to an existing Prolon network
Warranty and Sourcing
Key Features
Individually configurable inputs
Each of the 9 analog inputs has its own signal range: thermistor, dry contact, 4-20mA, 0-20 mA, 0-5 VDC, 1-5 VDC, or 0.5-4.5 VDC.
Many input types
Temperature, dry contact, pressure, gas, humidity, current, voltage, power, level, speed, flow, and percentage.
Selectable output logic
Outputs run on/off, PI loop, direct or reverse acting, or pulsed logic.
Interlocking and lead-lag
Outputs can be interlocked with each other, and 2 outputs can be linked with lead/lag and backup capability.
Setpoint or reset curve
Outputs can hold a fixed setpoint or a variable setpoint driven by a reset curve.
Occupancy states from an NC2000
Receives up to 8 different occupancy states from an NC2000 for versatile lighting control.
- Configurable names and display options for each input and output
- Configurable scales for pressure and gas inputs accommodate any sensor
- Outputs can act based on any local input, or on data received from a network master
- Outputs can be automatically overridden based on outside temperature and/or occupancy
- Operates standalone or can be integrated into a Prolon network
- 5 digital outputs and 3 analog outputs equipped with resettable fuses
