BentlyNevada 3500/20 Rack Interface Module

BentlyNevada 3500/20 Rack Interface Module

Description 

The Rack Interface Module (RIM) is the primary interface to the 3500 rack. It supports a proprietary protocol used to configure the rack and retrieve machinery information. The RIM must be located in slot 1 of the rack (next to the power supplies). The RIM supports compatible Bently Nevada external communications processors such as TDXnet, TDIX, and DDIX.  While the RIM provides certain functions common to the entire rack, the RIM is not part of the critical monitoring path and has no effect on the proper, normal operation of the overall monitoring system. One RIM is required per rack. For Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) applications, the 3500 System requires a TMR version of the RIM. In addition to all the standard RIM functions, the TMR RIM also performs "monitor channel comparison."  The 3500 TMR configuration implements monitor voting using the setup specified in the monitor options. Using this method, the TMR RIM continually compares the outputs from three (3) redundant monitors. If the TMR RIM detects that the information from one of those monitors is no longer within a configured percentof the information of the other two monitors, it will flag that the monitor is in error and place an event in the System Event List.

Specifications Inputs Power Consumption 4.75 watts, typical Data Front panel Standard RS232 serial communications Data Rate 38.4 k baud. I/O modules Standards RS232/RS422 serial communications Internal modem communications Data Rate 38.4 k baud maximum,serial communications 14.4 k baud, internal modem communications. Outputs Front Panel LEDs OK LED Indicates when the RIM is operating properly. 

TX/RX LED Indicates when the RIM is communicating with other modules in the 3500 rack. TM LED Indicates when the 3500 rack is in Trip Multiply. CONFIG OK LED Indicates that the 3500 rack has a valid configuration. I/O Module OK Relay Relay to indicate when the 3500 rack is operating normally or when a fault has been detected within the rack. User can select either an "OPEN" or "CLOSED" contact to annunciate a NOT OK condition. This relay always operates as "Normally Energized". OK relay Rated to 5A @ 24 Vdc/ 120 Vac, 120 Watts/600 VA Switched Power. Normally closed contacts Arc suppressors are provided. Controls Front Panel Rack reset button Clears latched alarms and Timed OK Channel Defeat in the rack. Performs same function as "Rack Reset" contact on I/O module. Address switch Used to set the 63 possible rack address. Configuration Keylock Used to place 3500 rack in either "RUN" mode or "PROGRAM" mode. RUN mode allows for normal operation of the rack and locks out configuration changes. PROGRAM mode allows for normal operation of the rack and also allows for local or remote rack configuration. 

The key can be removed from rack in either position, allowing switch to remain in either RUN or PROGRAM positions. Locking switch in the RUN position allows you to restrict unauthorized rack reconfiguration. Locking switch in PROGRAM position allows remote configuration of a rack at any time. I/O Module System Contacts Trip multiply Used to place 3500 rack in Trip Multiply. 

Alarm inhibit Used to inhibit all alarms in the 3500 rack. Rack reset Used to clear latched alarms and Timed OK Channel Defeat. Maximum Current <1 mA dc, Dry Contact to Common. RS232/RS422 Switch (RS232/RS422 I/O module only) Used to select between RS232 and RS422 for communications with the Bently Nevada host software. Communications Front Panel Communications RS232 serial communications only. Protocol Bently Nevada proprietary. Data rate 38.4 k baud maximum (auto baud capable). Purpose Permits data collection and 3500 rack configuration. Cable length 30 metres (100 feet) maximum. RS232/RS422 I/O Module Communications RS232, RS422, or external modem. Protocol Bently Nevada proprietary. Baud rate 38.4 k baud maximum (auto baud capable). Purpose Permits data collection and 3500 rack configuration.
