VIBRO-METER IOC4T 200-560-000-114 I/O interface card

VIBRO-METER IOC4T 200-560-000-114 I/O interface card

AMC8 analog monitoring card (ABE04x and ABE056)

The AMC8 card has the following panel elements (see Figure2-10):

1-One global DIAG/STATUS indicator for the AMC8/IOC8T card pair

This multi-coloured, multi-function LED is used to indicate:

• The status of the card configuration

• Possible hardware errors

• Whether the Danger Bypass (DB) special function is in use.

2-Status indicators for the 8 measurement channels

Each multi-coloured, multi-function LED is used to indicate:

• Whether the signal input for that channel is valid

• The presence of an incoming signal in the Alert/Danger condition

• Whether the channel inhibit function is in use.

3-RS-232 connector

This 9-pin D-sub connector can be used to configure an AMC8 card in a stand-alone

rack. This is done via an interface cable from a computer running one of the VM600

MPSx software packages (MPS1 or MPS2). See Figure2-7 for details of the interface

cable.

2.5 IOC8T input/output card (ABE04x and ABE056)

The IOC8T panel (rear of rack) contains four contact strips, identified as J1 to J4.

Strips J1 to J3 consist of a socket and a mating connector, which contains either 24 or 20

cage clamp terminals (see Figure2-9). The terminals can accept wires with a cross-section

of between 0.08 and 1.0mm2.

Strip J4 consists of a socket and a mating connector, which contains 12 screw terminals. The

terminals can accept wires with a cross-section of ≤1.5mm2

DIAG/STATUS indicator for the AMC8/IOC8T card pair.

The colours of the LED have the following significance:

* Green(continuous) – Normal operation (configuration valid with no active

alarms and no errors).

* Green blinking – Card is configured but still in the stabilisation phase.

* Yellow(continuous) – There is an active multi-channel processing

Alert level alarm ((A−) or (A+)).

* Yellow blinking – Configuration error and/or signal processing error.

* Red(continuous) – There is an active multi-channel processing

Danger level alarm ((D−) or (D+)).

* Red blinking – Hardware error or card not yet configured.

Status indicator for the AMC8/IOC8T card pair measurement channel1.

The colours of the LED have the following significance:

* Off – Channel not configured or card not configured.

* Green(continuous) – Signal input to the channel is valid and there are

no active alarms.

* Green blinking – Signal input to the channel is not valid.

* Green blinking slowly – Channel inhibit function active.

* Yellow(continuous) – There is an active single-channel processing

Alert level alarm ((A−) or (A+)).

* Red(continuous) – There is an active single-channel processing

Danger level alarm ((D−) or (D+))
