Module Overview 1-3
Hardware Features
Diagnostic LEDs
The module contains diagnostic LEDs that help you identify the
source of problems that may occur during power-up or during normal
operation. Power-up and channel diagnostics are explained in
Chapter 6, Testing Your Module.
System Overview
The module communicates with the SLC 500 processor and receives
+5V dc and +24V dc power from the system power supply through
the parallel backplane interface. No external power supply is
required. You may install as many thermocouple modules in the
system as the power supply can support.
