Notes
1. Specific alarms (A+, Dî› and so on) are attributed to the OC Bus lines using the VM600 MPSx software.
See Table 9-4 for information on the normal state of the control signal.
2. For a normally energised (NE) relay, select an inverted relay control line by placing jumper Jc.
For a normally de-energised (NDE) relay, select jumper Jb.
Either Jb or Jc must be selected (that is, it is not possible to select both or to select neither).
3. Relay #A represents one of the 16 relays (RL1 to RL16) on the RLC16 card.
4. Relay #B represents one of the 8 relays (4 DPDT or 8 SPDT) on the IRC4 card.
