15.3 Design of the Redundant System
Rack Components
In the non-redundant version, the system consists of only one channel (channel A). By retrofitting
modules for channel B, the system can be designed to be redundant in one rack for up to
64 measuring points.
WARNING!
Retrofitting necessary modules for redundant design must only be carried out voltage-free, i.e. the
whole SUPREMATouch system must be switched off. The following reboot must be carried out
accounting for the necessary configuration and parameter setting steps.
When retrofitting, the Regulations for Handling Electrostatic Sensitive Components must be
followed!
By adding further racks (8 max. per system) and the appropriate modules, the system can be
extended up to 256 measuring points with up to 512 outputs.
• The MAR modules are plugged into the MAI modules.
• The MGO modules: configuration with plug-in jumpers for CAN A or CAN B
• The same number of MGO modules at CAN A and CAN B
• Connection of 2 gateways at CAN A and CAN B
Installation of the MAR/MGR Module
This module is used for redundant evaluation of the input signals.
It is plugged on the MAI/MGI module. The analogue output signals of the sensors are digitised in
parallel to the MAI module by a ADC, and are transferred to the second CAN bus.
Here, the function is identical to the MAI/MGI module.
For connecting the MAR/MGR module, the MAI/MGI module has to be unplugged from the rack
which must be voltage-free. For every MAI/MGI module, a MAR/MGR module is necessary.
