5.4.5 TBCI Diagnostics
Diagnostic tests to components on the terminal boards are as follows:
• The excitation voltage is monitored. If the excitation drops to below 40% of the nominal voltage, a diagnostic alarm is set
and latched by the I/O pack.
• YDIA I/O pack performs periodic self test of all contact inputs. In a alternative sequence each contact is forced open or
closed and reads the status, if any contact fails the test a fault is created.
• If the input from this board does not match the TMR voted value from all three boards, a fault is created.
• Each terminal board connector has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O pack. The connector ID is coded into
a read-only chip containing the board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR1/JS1/JT1 connector
location. When the chip is read by the I/O pack and a mismatch is encountered with what is configured in the ToolboxST
application, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.
