Flex5 Input/Output expansions
The input/output expansion board enclosure is available in two versions, which differ
with regard to the board housing:
• Flex5/P comes in the enclosure shown above. This version can be set up to monitor
dislodgement and open-enclosure tamper by inserting a jumper into connector [D],
as shown.
• Flex5/U comes in an enclosure with on-view terminals and address DIP-Switch, as
shown opposite. It is evident that this version offers little protection to the terminals.
The jumper of connector [D] enables/disables the protection against open and
dislodgement tamper of the plastic enclosure only.
Terminals T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 can be configured as:
• Input (Rollerblind or Shock for terminals T1, T2, T3 and T4 only)
•Output
•Double zone
• Supervised Output
The T5 terminal can be configured as an analogue output that allows adjustment of the
power supplied to a device from 0 to 10V (industrial standard 0 - 10V).
The packages of both versions of the Flex5 expansion board contain:
• Flex5 expansion board in a plastic enclosure
• Dislodgement/Open tamper jumper
• Jumper to set terminal T5 as an analogue output
• 10 resistors @ 3K9Ohm 1/4W
• 10 resistors @ 6K8Ohm 1/4W
Peripheral activity LED signals are as follows:
• fast blinking - peripheral operative and enrolled (in configuration)
• slow blinking - peripheral operative but not enrolled (not in configuration)
Through appropriate programming, it is possible to activate the buzzer on activation of
terminal T1 configured as an output (refer to paragraph 7-19 Expansions).
